The incretin hormones glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon like peptide-1 (GLP-1) are secreted from enteroendocrine cells in the gut and regulate physiological and homeostatic functions related to glucose control, metabolism and food intake.This review provides a systematic summary of the molecular mechanisms underlying s
Abstract Background Cucumbers (Cucumis sativus) are known for their plasticity in sex expression.DNA methylation status determines gene activity but is susceptible to environmental condition changes.Thus, DNA methylation-based epigenetic regulation may at least partially account for the instability of cucumber sex expression.Do temperature and phot

Detection of gravitational waves (GW) from compact binary mergers provides a new window into multi-messenger astrophysics.The standard technique to determine the merger parameters is matched filtering, consisting in comparing the signal to a template bank.This approach can be time consuming and computationally expensive due to the large amount of e
Unforeseen difficulties arise along with the government measures whose object is not to expropriate or to nationalize the foreign investment, but to deprive the foreign investors of the rights attached to their investments.These measures are generally known as measures of indirect expropriation or nationalization.When asked about what falls into th
