Abstract:
... Neuroscience has the potential to allow us to more fully understand eating behavior by providing information that is inaccessible by conventional methods. However, it cannot be expected to solve all the problems sensory and consumer researchers face when trying to understand consumer food-related decisions. In the present work, we provide a commentary on the opinion paper by Niedziela & Ambroze. W ...

Abstract:
... Precise quantification of vascular developments in Zebrafish requires continuous in-vivo 3D imaging. Here we employed a bi-directional light-sheet illumination microscope to characterize the development process of Zebrafish’s intersegmental vessels. A Virtual Reality-based method was used to measure the lengths of intersegmental vessels (ISVs). The quantified growth rates of typical ISVs can be pl ...

Abstract:
... Micro-RNA mediated suppression of mRNA translation represents a major regulatory mode of post-transcriptional gene expression. Recently, the nucleoporin Nup358 was shown to interact with AGO protein, a key component of miRNA-induced silencing complex (miRISC), and facilitate the coupling of miRISC with target mRNA. Previous results suggested that SUMO-interacting motifs (SIMs) present on Nup358 me ...

Abstract:
... Visual analogue scales (VAS) have commonly been used to assess appetite in children 8 years and older; however, these tools have been considered unreliable for children 7 years old and under. The objective of this pilot study was to develop a picture-based appetite assessment (PBAA) tool for children aged 4-10 years and pilot test it compared to a VAS-based appetite assessment. The study hypothesi ...

Abstract:
... Recent research has highlighted the utility of using revised Reinforcement Sensitivity Theory (RST) to further understand the individual differences that influence binge eating behaviours. The current study draws on both RST and theoretical models that implicate negative affect in binge eating, with the aim of identifying indirect pathways between individual differences in RST systems and binge ea ...

Abstract:
... There is ample evidence linking broad trait emotion regulation deficits and negative affect with loss-of-control (LOC)-eating among individuals with obesity and binge eating, however, few studies have examined emotion regulation at the state-level. Within and across day fluctuations in the ability to modulate emotion (or regulate emotional and behavioral responses), one facet of state emotion regu ...

Abstract:
... Although Cymbacephalus staigeri (Castelnau 1875) has been regarded as a valid species, several authors have suggested that it may be a junior synonym of Cymbacephalus nematophthalmus (Günther 1860). Because the whereabouts of the holotype of C. staigeri is unknown, this study compared the original description of C. staigeri with two syntypes and 18 non-type specimens of C. nematophthalmus. It was ...
