Phyllodactylus lanei

description: Phyllodactylus lanei Smith, 1935
Holotype. Adult male, CNHM 100067, collected by Edward H. Taylor and Hobart M. Smith near Tierra Colorada Guerrero, June 30, 1932.
Diagnosis. A large gecko according to Dixon (1964) attaining a snout-vent length of 78 mm. This observation agrees with ours, as the largest species in the P. lanei complex are P. lanei, P. benedettii and P. lupitae. Has more than 30 tubercles from head to tail (33.2), similar to P. isabelae (32.2) and P. muralis (33.6). The other species of the P. lanei complex have fewer than 30, P. lupitae (28.8), P. rupinus (28), P. benedettii (27.4), P. kropotkini (28.4). Other species of geckos with more tubercles are P. t. magnus (37) and P. tuberculosus (36.4). Phyllodactylus lanei presents 30 scales across the venter similar to P. kropotkini (30.6) and P. tuberculosus (30.2), but differing from P. isabelae (27.8), P. lupitae (24.6), P. rupinus (26.5), P. benedettii (29.1) and P. t. magnus (27.3).
Distribution. This species is restricted to the localities of Tierra Colorada and Chilpancingo, Guerrero and adjacent locations of medium-low altitude localities.

Response of human umbilical vein endothelial cells to growth factor nanoparticles in simulated chronic wound environments
Creators: name: Chu, Alexa
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2024

description: Chronic wounds are a type of persisting, non-healing wound proven to be a difficult challenge to treat. These wounds are caused by factors such as restricted blood flow to the injury, repeated tissue damage, excessive inflammation, and infection. The outcomes of chronic wounds are typically a sustained, severe infection leading to tissue necrosis. An emerging research area involves the use of growth factors to stimulate wound healing mechanisms such as cell proliferation and migration. However, a common limitation of growth factor treatments in clinical applications is that the growth factors are degraded in the wound environment by proteases prior to imparting their full therapeutic effect. To address this limitation, we previously developed fibroblast growth factor fused with elastin-like polypeptides (FGF-2-ELP) to introduce greater protection against proteolytic degradation. As part of our prior work, the recombinant nanoparticle FGF-2-ELP was characterized, and its in vitro biological activity was tested in three representative skin cell types (keratinocytes, fibroblasts, and endothelial cells) via cell proliferation and migration assays. In this research, we seek to investigate the effects of FGF-2-ELP treatment in a representative chronic wound model. Here, we develop a model for simulating chronic wounds in vitro through a combination of low serum (1% fetal bovine serum), hypoxia (1% O2), and treatment with lipopolysaccharides (1-200 ug/ml). These factors were selected due to their significant inhibitive contribution to the chronic wound environment. We tested the proliferative and migratory responses of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) to FGF-2-ELP (25-100 nM) treatment under these chronic wound factors individually, as well as in combination to simulate the chronic wound environment. It was found that the single most inhibitive factor affecting cell proliferation and migration was low serum. When adding hypoxia conditions alongside baseline low serum response, no significant effect was found in HUVEC proliferation and migration. Likewise, there was no significant effect on HUVEC proliferation and migration following LPS and low serum treatment at all tested doses. Lastly, HUVEC proliferation was tested in the combined chronic wound system consisting of low serum, hypoxia (1% O2), and LPS (200 ug/ml) and it was found that the HUVEC proliferation response to FGF-2-ELP was significantly attenuated when comparing results between the chronic wound model and low serum baseline conditions. Despite the impaired level of proliferation in the simulated chronic wound environment, HUVECs responded to FGF-2-ELP with increases in both these parameters, suggesting that FGF-2-ELP can impart a therapeutic effect even under chronic wound conditions. However, there is still a need for FGF-ELP dose optimization under the chronic wound condition model.

Description— Benthic and sessile, body laterally compressed, elongated in the transverse direction; two “chimney-like” cylindrical vertical projections originating at either end and distinctly perpendicular to the rest of the body, each housing a single tentacle without tentilla in its own sheath; pharyngeal cavity with an accessory opening on each transverse end of body at the distal end of the vertical projections; transverse canals reduced into short branching diverticula, showing no anastomoses; gonads arising on lateral walls of the above diverticula; viviparous, eggs developing into cydippid-like embryos in brood-cavities in the lateral parts of the body.
Remarks— Although Mortensen included the type genus (TJalfiella) in the family Ctenoplanidae due to his observation of “cydippid-like” larvae, in 1922, Komai argued that there was such a noticeable morphological difference between Ctenoplana and TJalfiella that the creation of Tjalfiellidae was justified. Presently, five families of Platyctenida are recognized: Coeloplanidae, Ctenoplanidae, Lyroctenidae, Savangiidae, and Tjalfiellidae. The latter is differentiated from Coeloplanidae, Ctenoplanidae, and Lyroctenidae by having tentacles that lack tentilla and branching diverticula that do not form anastomoses. The monotypic and only once observed Savangiidae lack an aboral sense organ and have tentacles that lack a primary filament, consisting solely of a tuft of tentilla. The two vertical projections that originate at either end of the laterally compressed body, and which are perpendicular to it, were called “chimneys” or “chimney-tops” by Mortensen (1912), in reference to their cylindrical shape and flat tops. Similarly positioned projections from the bodies of Lyrocteis imperatoris, L. flavopallidus, and Coeloplana meteoris were termed arms by Komai (1941), Robilliard & Dayton (1972), and Thiel (1968), respectively. In these taxa, the projections differ from those in Tjalfiellidae by not having flat tops and possessing oral groves that run down their lateral sides. We use the more general term “arm” to describe all of these raised structures, irrespective of the shapes of their distal ends.

Wearing fashion images: reimagining fashion fmages through material and participatory fashion practices

description: Wearing Fashion-Images investigates how material and participatory fashion practices, involving garments and wearers, can critique and expand the narrow frame of representation typically promoted by visual fashion-images. The research proposes that while the fashion industry predominantly employs visual fashion-images to market fashion-products to wearers – idealising, automating, and commodifying how they see themselves – that material and participatory fashion practices can be activated by wearers to reimagine these images for themselves.

These ideas are explored across a series of practice-based projects that iteratively combine visual, material, and participatory image-making methods, including photography, digital manipulation, printmaking, scanning, pattern-cutting, machine-sewing, collage, décollage, and wearing. These outcomes – which include both fashion-images and image-making apparatuses – are likewise critically interpreted through visual, material, and participatory theories including Vilém Flusser’s critical photographic theory, Barthesian semiotics, and practice-based research in which clothes are positioned as tools.

The outcomes of the study contribute to fashion-practice by demonstrating that: i) that garments function representationally as material fashion-images, ii) that garments can be activated as participatory image-making apparatuses, and iii) that wearing is an accessible image-making practice with which wearers can fashion their own representations.

description: Genus Tjalfiella Mortensen, 1910
Grammatical gender— feminine
Type species— TJalfiella tristoma from Mortensen (1910): 249–253, plates. 1–10
Etymology— From the Danish Tjalfe, on which Mortensen based the name. This originated from the earlier Tjalfe expedition to Greenland on the vessel Tjalfe. “Tjalfe is a renowned figure in Northern Mythology (the companion of the good Thor on his journey to Utgård)” (Mortensen 1912: 2).
Included species (1)— TJalfiella tristoma Mortensen, 1910
Description— Tjalfiellidae compressed in the stomodeal axis and “U” shaped; with two large aboral arms that lack oral grooves, chimney-like with flat tops, and extend perpendicularly from the main axis of the body; two tentacles (one sheathed in each respective aboral arm) that lack tentilla; statocyst sunken into a deep cavity in the center of the aboral face of the animal; hermaphroditic gonads developing into four pairs of external globular pockets centered around the statocyst on the aboral face; genital brood cavities may appear as rows of externalized pockets lining the edge of the oral skirt; meridional canals reduced to short diverticula from perradial canals; branching canals present, but rather sparse, showing no anastomoses; lack ctene rows in maturity.
Remarks— Mortensen (1912) following a relatively short original (1910) description, provides highly detailed and extensive morphological/developmental description based on microscopy and histology of many specimens and his drawings are sufficient to recognize and describe the genus when observed from a deep-sea submersible platform with high-definition imagery. No other genera have been assigned to the family Tjalfiellidae.

Cestocampa kashiensis Chou & Tong, 1980: 158.
This endogean species described from Kashi, Xinjiang Province, China, shows some features that differ from the other species of Cestocampa: clothing setae short and numerous; low number of notal macrochaetae (4+4 and 3+3 on meso- and metanotum vs. 6+6 and 6+ 6 in C. italica and 7+7 and 6+ 6 in other Cestocampa spp.; urosternite VIII with 1+1 macrochaetae vs 2+ 2 in other Cestocampa spp. and in all species of Plusiocampinae sensu Paclt, 1957 (with the exception of Plusiocampa sinensis Silvestri, 1931), and without la macrochaetae on urotergites. Chou & Tong (1980, fig. 2.14) drew a narrow claw without crests, but with a telotarsal process with sternal barbs. Based on these features, we transfer P. kashiensis to Plusiocampa.

Distribution. Gulf of California, Pacific Central to South America.
Material examined. As in [3].
Measurements. As in [3].
Remarks. The only representative of the genus in the Pacific. Conchologically, it can be readily distinguished from the remaining species by the marked anterior widening of the aperture (Fig 12A and 12B). Most other shell characters such as color, width/height ratio, and general outline overlap with M. zebra in varying degrees. The pair of anterior projections flanking canal relatively short (~1/12 of shell length; Fig 12B and 12C), left edge oblique. Inner lip slope with relatively short, spaces teeth, mostly positioned perpendicular to longitudinal axis (Fig 12E). Anatomically, it differs from the remaining species of the genus in having a more anterior origin of the auricle; kidney with ventral lobe bearing a mosaic of pores instead of longitudinal folds; narrower rachidian tooth; narrower seminal vesicle; and a straighter penis with a rounder tip (Simone, 2004). Simone (2004) reported no significant anatomical differences between individuals from the Gulf of California (i.e., M. cervinetta californica) and the Central-South America (nominal subspecies). Conchological distinctions between the two subspecies were discussed by Lorenz (2017: 290).

Black, pruinose; following yellow markings: a line on anterior margin of clypeus, line along inner orbit except at top, scape of antennae in front, posterior margin of pronotum, minute spot on tegulae and mesoscutum, spot on base of hind tibiae, and transverse fascia at base of T2, T3 and T5; flagellum of antennae below and hind tibiae red; head and mesosoma with silvery and silky pile; head broader than mesosoma; clypeus subconvex, its anterior margin arched; propodeum rounded posteriorly, gradually sloping to the apex and slightly depressed in middle; tibiae and tarsi spinose, fore tarsi haired; inner spur of mid and hind tibiae nearly as long as hind basitarsus; and wings hyaline, broadly infuscated at apex, veins fuscous, marginal cell as long as SMC2 and SMC3 combined, SMC2 twice the width of SMC3 (Smith 1858, 1879; Bingham 1897; Banks 1934; Wahis 1980).
Male. A trifle smaller than female; and clypeus has a large pale spot on each side, not connected below.
Distribution. India: Maharashtra, Sikkim. Elsewhere: Indonesia; Japan; Malaysia; Myanmar; Philippines; Singapore; Thailand (Bingham 1897; Wahis 1980).
Note. The markings are highly variable in this species resulting their identification difficult to some extent. As variation, the clypeus may be without coloured line, scutellum may be marked with yellow, the femora and tibiae of all legs may red, yellow fascia on the metasoma except on T2 may be entirely lacking and spines of legs may be light red or pale in some members (Bingham 1897; Banks 1934; Wahis 1980).

Remarks. The description and figures in Guinot (1984) are detailed and do not need to be elaborated upon here. They are supplemented by the detailed notes of Almeida et al. (2008).
The extent of the clump of plumose setae along the anterior margin of the cheliped carpus and the anterior portion of the inner margin of the merus is somewhat variable. The holotype male (MNHN-B8740) and Brazilian specimens (MZUESC 1196) lack these setae (Figs. 1 A, 7A), but is clearly evident on the recent males from the Gulf of Mexico (ULLZ 7717). In the adult female (ULLZ 6437), the setae are present but are relatively sparse (Fig. 8 A).
The press-button of the pre-adult female abdominal-locking mechanism is prominent, acute, and sharp (Fig. 7 B) but undiscernible in the adult females (Fig. 8 B).
