Biology is designed for multi-semester biology courses for science majors. It is grounded on an evolutionary basis and includes exciting features that highlight careers in the biological sciences and everyday applications of the concepts at hand. To meet the needs of today’s instructors and students, some content has been strategically condensed while maintaining the overall scope and coverage of traditional texts for this course. Instructors can customize the book, adapting it to the approach that works best in their classroom. Biology also includes an innovative art program that incorporates critical thinking and clicker questions to help students understand—and apply—key concepts.

This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:

"Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is an inherited disorder characterized by the formation of up to several thousand tumors in the rectum and colon. FAP is usually caused by a mutation of the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene. While the molecular changes linking this mutation to tumor formation are not fully understood, dysregulated apoptosis—a form of programmed cell death—is known to play a prominent role. Now, researchers have uncovered a pattern of expression of an apoptosis-regulating protein that may help explain how FAP tumors form. The protein is called apoptosis repressor with caspase recruitment domain, or ARC. The team examined the expression of ARC in 212 FAP tumor samples from 80 patients. They found that ARC was expressed in the cytoplasm of most tumor cells, as well as in the nuclei..."

The rest of the transcript, along with a link to the research itself, is available on the resource itself.
