PMID: 30056078
For almost a century, the idea that neutral stimuli acquire meaning by association with biologically-relevant stimuli has been a fixture of psychologists' descriptions of Pavlovian conditioning. A potential problem with...

. 2017 Oct;
9(10):2893-2910.
PMID: 29036401
Hemipteran insects are well-known in their ability to establish symbiotic relationships with bacteria. Among them, heteropteran insects present an array of symbiotic systems, ranging from the most common gut crypt...

J Theor Biol
. 2016 Jul;
407:303-317.
PMID: 27473768
Reductive genome evolution is a universal phenomenon observed in endosymbiotic bacteria in insects. As the genome reduces its size and irreversibly losses coding genes, the functionalities of the cell system,...

Cell Transplant
. 2016 May;
25(9):1591-1607.
PMID: 27165370
The development of cell- and gene-based strategies for regenerative medicine offers a therapeutic option for the repair and potential regeneration of damaged cardiac tissue post-myocardial infarction (MI). Human umbilical cord...

Cell Transplant
. 2016 Jan;
25(9):1713-1721.
PMID: 26763198
Cell therapy is an evolving option for patients with end-stage heart failure. First-generation cell therapy trials have had marginal success. Our goal was to evaluate retrograde delivery of allogeneic umbilical...

Front Microbiol
. 2015 Dec;

PMID: 26617602
The availability of complete genome sequences of bacterial endosymbionts with strict vertical transmission to the host progeny opens the possibility to estimate molecular evolutionary rates in different lineages and understand...

PMID: 25887812
Background: The whitefly Bemisia tabaci is an important agricultural pest with global distribution. This phloem-sap feeder harbors a primary symbiont, "Candidatus Portiera aleyrodidarum", which compensates for the deficient nutritional composition...

Genome Biol Evol
. 2015 Feb;
7(3):873-88.
PMID: 25716826
Whiteflies are important agricultural insect pests, whose evolutionary success is related to a long-term association with a bacterial endosymbiont, Candidatus Portiera aleyrodidarum. To completely characterize this endosymbiont clade, we sequenced...

Genome Biol Evol
. 2015 Feb;
7(3):839-55.
PMID: 25714744
Bacterial endosymbiosis is an important evolutionary process in insects, which can harbor both obligate and facultative symbionts. The evolution of these symbionts is driven by evolutionary convergence, and they exhibit...
