Reduced Cardiorespiratory Fitness after Stroke: Biological Consequences and Exercise-Induced Adaptations by Sandra A. Billinger, Eileen Coughenour, Marilyn J. MacKay-Lyons, Frederick M. Ivey

“…Evidence from several studies consistently shows decline in cardiorespiratory (CR) fitness and physical function after disabling stroke. The broader implications of such a decline to general health may be partially understood through negative poststroke physiologic adaptations such as unilateral muscle fiber type shifts, impaired hemodynamic function, and decrements in systemic metabolic status. …”

A systematic screen for tube morphogenesis and branching genes in the Drosophila tracheal system. by Amin S Ghabrial, Boaz P Levi, Mark A Krasnow

“…To identify potentially pleiotropic morphogenesis genes, the screen included analysis of marked clones of homozygous mutant tracheal cells in heterozygous animals, plus a secondary screen to exclude mutations in general "house-keeping" genes. From a collection including more than 5,000 lethal mutations, we identified 133 mutations representing ∼70 or more genes that subdivide the tracheal terminal branching program into six genetically separable steps, a previously established cell specification step plus five major morphogenesis and maturation steps: branching, growth, tubulogenesis, gas-filling, and maintenance. …”
