RATES OF DINOSAUR BODY MASS EVOLUTION INDICATE 170 MILLION YEARS OF SUSTAINED ECOLOGICAL INNOVATION ON THE AVIAN STEM LINEAGE.

Rates of dinosaur body mass evolution indicate 170 million years of sustained ecological innovation on the avian stem lineage.

Large-scale adaptive radiations might explain the runaway success of a minority of extant vertebrate clades.This hypothesis predicts, Leather Keychain among other things, rapid rates of morphological evolution during the early history of major groups, as lineages invade disparate ecological niches.However, few studies of adaptive radiation have inc

Endothelin-1 Mediates Brain Microvascular Dysfunction Leading to Long-Term Cognitive Impairment in a Model of Experimental Cerebral Malaria.

Plasmodium falciparum infection causes a wide spectrum of diseases, including cerebral malaria, a potentially life-threatening encephalopathy.Vasculopathy is thought to contribute to cerebral malaria pathogenesis.The vasoactive compound endothelin-1, a key participant in many inflammatory processes, likely mediates vascular and cognitive dysfunctio
