The actomyosin purse string is an evolutionarily conserved contractile structure that is involved in cytokinesis, morphogenesis, and wound healing. Recent studies suggested that an actomyosin purse string is crucial for the closure of wounds in single cells. In the present study, morphological and pharmacological methods were used to investigate the role of this structure in the closure of woun...

Stock structure of geographic forms of the spinner dolphin (Srenellu longirosrris) in the eastern tropical Pacific (ETP) is a conservation issue. These animals are incidentally killed during yellow fin tuna purse seining by US and international fleets, and mortality quotas apportioned by stock have been established by legislative act. Four management stocks of spinner dolphins in the ETP are cu...

The Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC) agreed to close certain high-seas areas in the Western and Central Pacific Ocean to purse seine tuna fishing starting in 2010. These measures have potential economic benefits to the countries surrounding the closed areas and may also have potential stock conservation benefits for tunas. We used a spatially explicit ecosystem model of ...

Objective: To compare the effectiveness of two types haemostatic sutures to secure bleeding in thinned out caesarean section scars. Study Design: Comparative Interventional Study. Setting: CMH Okara, Pakistan. Period: September 2019 2021. Material & Methods: Patients were divided four categories. Category I was previous one scar patients while category II scars patients. Similarly, categori...

Purse-string healing is driven by contraction of actin/myosin cables that span cells at wound edges, and it is the predominant mode of closing small round wounds in embryonic and some adult epithelia. Wounds can also heal by cell crawling, and my colleagues and I have shown previously that the presence of unconstrained, straight edges in sheets of epithelial cells is a sufficient signal to indu...
