FIRST REPORT OF EUTROPIS INNOVATE (BLANFORD, 1870) (REPTILIA: SCINCIDAE) FROM NALLAMALAI HILLS, ANDHRA PRADESH, INDIA

First report of Eutropis innovate (Blanford, 1870) (Reptilia: Scincidae) from Nallamalai Hills, Andhra Pradesh, India

We report the first record of Eutropis innotata (Blanford, 1870) based on a specimen collected in 2002 from Gundla Brahmeswaram Metta Wildlife 128 Sanctuary, Andhra Pradesh, India.The habitat from where it was collected is relatively undisturbed patch of forest in the Nallamalai Hills of Eastern Ghats.This constitutes the range extension of this Ma

CpG binding protein (CFP1) occupies open chromatin regions of active genes, including enhancers and non-CpG islands

Abstract Background The mechanism by which protein complexes interact to regulate the deposition of post-translational modifications of histones remains poorly understood.This is particularly important at regulatory regions, such as CpG islands (CGIs), which are known to recruit Trithorax (TrxG) and Polycomb group proteins.The CxxC zinc finger prot

Isolation and cultivation as well as in situ identification of MSCs from equine dental pulp and periodontal ligament

IntroductionThe lifelong eruption places a great demand on the dental pulp and periodontal ligament (PDL) of horse teeth.Cells within the pulp and PDL seem to play a key role during this remodeling.MethodsIn this study, we isolated and cultivated MSCs (medicinal signaling cells) from dental pulp, PDL and retrobulbar fat of four horses.Subsequently,
