Continuously growing rodent molars result from a predictable quantitative evolutionary change over 50 million years.
The fossil record is widely informative about evolution, but fossils are not systematically used to study the evolution of stem-cell-driven renewal. Here, we examined evolution of the continuous growth (hypselodonty) of rodent molar teeth, which is fuelled by the presence of dental stem cells. We studied occurrences of 3,500 North American rodent fossils, ranging from 50 million years ago (mya)...
متن کاملEnamel-free teeth: Tbx1 deletion affects amelogenesis in rodent incisors.
TBX1 is a principal candidate gene for DiGeorge syndrome, a developmental anomaly that affects the heart, thymus, parathyroid, face, and teeth. A mouse model carrying a deletion in a functional region of the Tbx1 gene has been extensively used to study anomalies related to this syndrome. We have used the Tbx1 null mouse to understand the tooth phenotype reported in patients afflicted by DiGeorg...
متن کاملA Continuously Growing Dataset of Sentential Paraphrases
A major challenge in paraphrase research is the lack of parallel corpora. In this paper, we present a new method to collect large-scale sentential paraphrases from Twitter by linking tweets through shared URLs. The main advantage of our method is its simplicity, as it gets rid of the classifier or human in the loop needed to select data before annotation and subsequent application of paraphrase...
متن کاملDynamic Workload-Based Partitioning Algorithms for Continuously Growing Databases
Applications with very large databases, where data items are continuously appended, are becoming more and more common. Thus, the development of efficient data partitioning is one of the main requirements to yield good performance. In the case of applications that have complex access patterns, e.g. scientific applications, workload-based partitioning could be exploited. However, existing workloa...
متن کاملGenetic modification and genetic determinism
In this article we examine four objections to the genetic modification of human beings: the freedom argument, the giftedness argument, the authenticity argument, and the uniqueness argument. We then demonstrate that each of these arguments against genetic modification assumes a strong version of genetic determinism. Since these strong deterministic assumptions are false, the arguments against g...
