Mountain gorilla tug-of-war: silverbacks have limited control over reproduction in multimale groups.
To determine who fathers the offspring in wild mountain gorilla groups containing more than one adult male silverback, we genotyped nearly one-fourth (n = 92) of the mountain gorillas (Gorilla beringei beringei) living in the Virunga Volcanoes region of Africa. Paternity analysis of 48 offspring born into four groups between 1985 and 1999 revealed that, although all infants were sired by within...

Early repolarization pattern (ERP) is a common ECG variant, characterized by J point elevation manifested either as terminal QRS slurring (the transition from the QRS segment to the ST segment) or notching (a positive deflection inscribed on terminal QRS complex) associated with concave upward ST-segment elevation and prominent T waves in at least two contiguous leads.1,2 The J point deflection...
متن کاملThe tug-of-war over MTOR in Legionella infections
A ruptured bacteria-containing organelle within the cytosol of an infected eukaryotic cell frequently initiates host defense responses that restrict pathogen replication. Therefore, source for lipids must be found to accommodate the organelle membrane expansion required to support bacterial replication. How host cells are manipulated to provide lipids for the expansion of pathogen-occupied orga...

ny cell therapy risks introducing mutated and possibly tumorigenic cells. Now results from Peter Stambrook (University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, OH) and colleagues underline this concern for embryonic stem (ES) cells, which are one possible source for therapeutic cells. Stambrook constructed a cell line in which he could detect loss or mutation of a heterozygous marker gene. Loss (rather than ...
متن کاملA NOVEL META-HEURISTIC ALGORITHM: TUG OF WAR OPTIMIZATION
This paper presents a novel population-based meta-heuristic algorithm inspired by the game of tug of war. Utilizing a sport metaphor the algorithm, denoted as Tug of War Optimization (TWO), considers each candidate solution as a team participating in a series of rope pulling competitions. The teams exert pulling forces on each other...
