Mutation Rate Analysis of the Human Mitochondrial D-loop and its Implications for Forensic Identity Testing
… identity testing. Mutations that occur within a maternal lineage can lead to a possible false exclusion of an individual as belonging to that lineage. A greater understanding of the actual rate of mutation within a given maternal lineage can assist in determining criteria for including or …

Multigenerational Neurobehavioural and Reproductive Toxicity of Arsenic in Zebrafish (Danio rerio)
… susceptibility, epigenetic alterations, and lineage-dependent inheritance patterns. In the first study (Chapter 2), adult zebrafish were exposed to environmentally relevant dietary arsenic concentrations (30, 60, and 100 µg/g dry weight, as arsenite) for 60 days. A latent learning assay …

Diet- and Probiotic-mediated Modulation of the Maternal Gut Microbiome Impacts Early-life Programming of Neurodevelopment and Behavioral Outcomes in Offspring
… environmental factors, those that impact the maternal gut microbiome during pregnancy are emerging as critical modulators of neurodevelopment and long-term behavioral outcomes in offspring. Specifically, disruption, or ‘dysbiosis,’ of the maternal gut microbiome during pregnancy is associated …
