Research questionWhich are the early compartment-specific transcriptional responses of trophoblast and endometrial epithelium throughout attachment during implantation?DesignAn proxy (cell line Ishikawa) was co-cultured with spheroids a green fluorescent protein (GFP) expressing cell (JEG-3). After 0, 8 24 h co-culture, compartments were sorted by fluorescence-activated sorting; GFP+ (trophobla...

The advancement of green technology innovation (GTI) is crucial for facilitating development. China, the largest carbon-emitting economy, should prioritize acceleration GTI to augment global economic growth and reduce carbon emissions. Green finance policy (GFP) a common instrument encouraging enterprises develop GTI. This study, therefore, takes pilot China’s Finance Reform Innovation Pilot Zo...

Proglucagon, which is encoded by the glucagon gene (Gcg), is the precursor of several peptide hormones, including glucagon and glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1). Whereas glucagon stimulates hepatic glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis, GLP-1 stimulates insulin secretion to lower blood glucose and also supports ß-cell proliferation and protection from apoptotic stimuli. Pregnancy is a strong inducer...

Green fluorescent protein (GFP) is a 27 kD protein consisting of 238 amino acid residues [1]. GFP was first identified in the aquatic jellyfish Aequorea victoria by Osamu Shimomura et al. in 1961 while studying aequorin, a Ca2+-activated photoprotein.Aequorin and GFP are local‐ ized in the light organs of A. victoria and GFP was accidentally discovered when the energy of the blue light emitted ...

Gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) exhibits potent insulinotropic effects on β-cells and anabolic effects on bone formation and fat accumulation. We explored the impact of reduced GIP levels in vivo on glucose homeostasis, bone formation, and fat accumulation in a novel GIP-GFP knock-in (KI) mouse. We generated GIP-GFP KI mice with a truncated prepro-GIP gene. The phenotype was assessed in he...
