DOI: 10.1002/jcp.30806
Abstract: In insects, the last stage of oogenesis is the process where the chorion layers (eggshell) are synthesized and deposited on the surface of the oocytes by the follicle cells. Protein homeostasis is determined by the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2018.04.075
Abstract: It was hypothesized that interactions between emerging contaminants such as decabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-209) and nanoparticles (NPs) such as nano-SiO2 (nSiO2), can affect contaminant transport in the aquatic environment and its ecotoxicity. This study assessed the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/scs.0000000000005393
Abstract: Abstract Although therapies with human amnion/chorion are used to ameliorate acute and chronic wounds, it is unclear which component of the amnion/chorion tissue promotes wound healing. To characterize the comparative effects of amnion and chorion… read more here.
