Abstract:
... Evidence from in vitro and rodent studies suggests that organophosphate esters (OPEs) may disrupt sex steroid hormone homeostasis, but no human studies, to date, have examined the effects of in utero exposure to OPEs on offspring reproductive development. Anogenital distance (AGD) is a sensitive biomarker of fetal hormonal milieu and has been used to assess reproductive toxicity. We evaluated the ...

Abstract:
... Molting is a widespread feature in the development of many invertebrates, including nematodes and arthropods. In Caenorhabditis elegans, the highly conserved protein kinases NEKL-2/NEK8/9 and NEKL-3/NEK6/7 (NEKLs) promote molting through their involvement in the uptake and intracellular trafficking of epidermal cargos. We found that the relative requirements for NEKL-2 and NEKL-3 differed at diffe ...
