An investigation into the TRPV1-CGRP signalling pathway in vessel development (2024)
Thesis
Bates, A. An investigation into the TRPV1-CGRP signalling pathway in vessel development. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4865918

TRPV1 is a non-selective cation channel which is activated through various different factors including, but not limited to, raised temperature and acidic pH. It has been linked in the past to endothelial cell proliferation in acidic conditions, but a... Read More about An investigation into the TRPV1-CGRP signalling pathway in vessel development.

Sex-related responses of blue mussels to the plasticiser DEHP under climate change scenarios (2023)
Thesis
Mincarelli, L. F. Sex-related responses of blue mussels to the plasticiser DEHP under climate change scenarios. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4436320

Climate change and plastic pollution are both pressing environmental issues. Little is known, however, about the combined effect of climate change conditions (such as global warming and ocean acidification) and plastic contaminants (such as the addit...

Photography-based taxonomy is inadequate, unnecessary, and potentially harmful for biological sciences (2016)
Journal Article
Böhme, W., Bogdanowicz, W., Bockmann, F. A., Boano, G., Blick, T., Birindelli, J., …Dubois, A. (2016). Photography-based taxonomy is inadequate, unnecessary, and potentially harmful for biological sciences. Zootaxa, 4196(3), 435-445. https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.4196.3.9

The question whether taxonomic descriptions naming new animal species without type specimen(s) deposited in collections should be accepted for publication by scientific journals and allowed by the Code has already been discussed in Zootaxa (Dubois &...

Secondary data analytics of aquaporin expression levels in glioblastoma stem-like cells (2015)
Journal Article
Isokpehi, R. D., Valero, K. C. W., Graham, B. E., Pacurari, M., Sims, J. N., Udensi, U. K., & Ndebele, K. (2015). Secondary data analytics of aquaporin expression levels in glioblastoma stem-like cells. Cancer Informatics, 14, 95-103. https://doi.org/10.4137/CIN.S22058

Glioblastoma is the most common brain tumor in adults in which recurrence has been attributed to the presence of cancer stem cells in a hypoxic microenvironment. On the basis of tumor formation in vivo and growth type in vitro, two published microarr... Read More about Secondary data analytics of aquaporin expression levels in glioblastoma stem-like cells.

A candidate multimodal functional genetic network for thermal adaptation (2014)
Journal Article
Wollenberg Valero, K. C., Pathak, R., Prajapati, I., Bankston, S., Thompson, A., Usher, J., & Isokpehi, R. D. (2014). A candidate multimodal functional genetic network for thermal adaptation. PeerJ, 2014(1), e578. https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj.578

Vertebrate ectotherms such as reptiles provide ideal organisms for the study of adaptation to environmental thermal change. Comparative genomic and exomic studies can recover markers that diverge between warm and cold adapted lineages, but the genes...

Expanding the understanding of local community assembly in adaptive radiations (2013)
Journal Article
Wollenberg, K. C., Veith, M., & Lötters, S. (2014). Expanding the understanding of local community assembly in adaptive radiations. Ecology and Evolution, 4(2), 174-185. https://doi.org/10.1002/ece3.908

Communities are thought to be assembled by two types of filters: by the environment relating to the fundamental niche and by biotic interactions relating to the realized niche. Both filters include parameters related to functional traits and their va... Read More about Expanding the understanding of local community assembly in adaptive radiations.
