JUNIPER PUBLISHERS- Trends in Technical & Scientific ResearcH Bioluminescence: Chemical Study on Visible Light Emission from Fungal Mycelium and Fruiting Body Authored by  Katsunori Teranishi Although the visible light emission by living organisms is generally thought to be rare, in fact the bioluminescent phenomenon can be widely observed in nature, for examples insects, fishes, bacteria, and fungi. The phenomenon has intrigued scientific researchers over the years.The chemical mechanisms underlying bioluminescence differ between species. Some mechanisms, such as bioluminescence of firefly, jellyfish, bacteria, and dinoflagellate, have been elucidated and further more their principles have allowed the development of many novel technologies in agriculture, biology, ecology, and medicine. However, many other bioluminescence mechanisms yet remain to be understood. Further research of bioluminescence will lead discoveries of biological significance and novel possibili...

JUNIPER PUBLISHERS- TRENDS IN TECHNICAL & SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH MATERNAL THYROID DYSFUNCTIONS AND DEVELOPING VISUAL ABNORMALITIES Authored by Ahmed RG The activity of the maternal hypothalamic-pituitary- thyroid axis (HPTA) is warranted for the normal development , especially the morphogenesis and angiogenesis of the retina and its gene expression. Regulation the development of the retina by 3,5,3'-triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) is depending on the expression of the thyroid receptors (TRα and TRβ). During the prenatal period, Thyroid Hormones (THs) regulate the standard development of the retina and eye. During the postnatal period, THs control the differentiation and growth of spectral cone types. At the postnatal day (PND) 10, the progress in the levels of THs in the dorsal retina is concomitant with the terminal maturation of the cones. Also, expression of TRβ2 is required for the cones to stimulate the expression of Mopsin and to...
