THREE-DIMENSIONAL MOVEMENTS OF THE PECTORAL FIN DURING YAW TURNS IN THE PACIFIC SPINY DOGFISH, SQUALUS SUCKLEYI

Three-dimensional movements of the pectoral fin during yaw turns in the Pacific spiny dogfish, Squalus suckleyi

Fish pectoral fins move in complex Desk ways, acting as control surfaces to affect force balance during swimming and maneuvering.Though objectively less dynamic than their actinopterygian relatives, shark pectoral fins undergo complex conformational changes and movements during maneuvering.Asynchronous pectoral fin movement is documented during yaw

Regulation of connexins expression levels by microRNAs, an update

Control of cell-cell coordination and communication is regulated by several factors, including paracrine and autocrine release of biomolecules, and direct exchange of soluble factors between cells through gap junction channels.Additionally, hemichannels also participate in cell-cell coordination through the release of signaling molecules, such as A
