REGULATION OF DDB2 EXPRESSION IN BLIND CAVEFISH AND ZEBRAFISH REVEALS PLASTICITY IN THE CONTROL OF SUNLIGHT-INDUCED DNA DAMAGE REPAIR.

Regulation of ddb2 expression in blind cavefish and zebrafish reveals plasticity in the control of sunlight-induced DNA damage repair.

We have gained considerable insight into the mechanisms which recognize and repair DNA damage, but how they adapt to extreme environmental challenges remains poorly understood.Cavefish have proven to be fascinating models for exploring the evolution of DNA repair in the complete absence of UV-induced DNA damage and light.We have previously revealed

Vocalizations during post-conflict affiliations from victims toward aggressors based on uncertainty in Japanese macaques.

We investigated the use of vocalizations called "grunts," "girneys," and "coos" accompanied by post-conflict affiliative interaction Casual Seating Set between former opponents (reconciliation) in Japanese macaques (Macaca fuscata).Although reconciliation functions to repair bonds, such interactions sometimes entail risks of receiving further aggre
