Tears evoke the intention to offer social support: A systematic investigation o...
Zickfeld, J. H.; Van de Ven; N.; Pich, O.; Schubert, T. W.; Berkessel, J. B.; Pizarro, J.; Bhushan, B.; Mateo, N. J.; Barbosa, S.; Sharman, L.Tearful crying is a ubiquitous and likely uniquely human phenomenon. Scholars have argued that emotional tears serve an attachment function: Tears are thought to act as a social glue by evoking social support intentions. Initial experimental studies supported this proposition across several methodologies, but these were conducted almost exclusively on participants from North America and Europe, resulting in lim...

Prolonged estuarine habitat use by dusky grouper Epinephelus marginatus at subt...
Condini, M. V.; Tanner, Susanne; Reis-Santos, Patrick; Albuquerque, C. Q.; Saint’Pierre, T. D.; Vieira, J. P.; Cabral, Henrique; Garcia, A. M.Otolith microchemistry (Sr:Ca, Ba:Ca) was used to evaluate habitat use patterns of the endangered dusky grouper Epinephelus marginatus in southern Brazil. Individual Sr:Ca profiles exhibited low variation, with an overall tendency to increase with age. Interestingly, individual Ba:Ca profiles presented 3 contrasting patterns: the first comprised most sampled individuals (>80%), mostly indicative of the predomin...
Gene expression during activation of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis conidia
Hernandez, O.; Garcia, A. M.; Almeida, Agostinho João Ramalho; Tamayo, D.; Gonzalez, A.; Restrepo, A.; McEwen, J. G.This study focuses on gene expression during crucial biological phenomena of the dimorphic fungal human pathogen Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, the conidia-to-yeast (C-Y) transition and the conidia-to-mycelia (C-M) germination. We studied 10 genes involved in different cellular functions: oxidative stress response (alternative oxidase (AOX), superoxide dismutase (SOD), flavodoxin, conserved hypothetical protein...
