The essential differences in microbial and chemical components of musk of different qualities secreted by captive male forest musk deer (Moschus berezovskii) [PDF]
Next‐generation sequencing and gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry were used to explore the essential differences between different quality of musk in microbial and chemical compositions. The results indicate that 14 taxa at the genus level and six compounds were identified to specifically distinguish DM and MM groups under the LEfSe analysis and OPLS‐

Biomarker Records of Environmental Shifts on the Labrador Shelf During the Holocene
Abstract The ultimate demise of the Laurentide Ice Sheet (LIS) and the preceding and succeeding oceanographic changes along the western Labrador Sea offer insights critically important to improve climate predictions of expected future climate warming and further melting of the Greenland ice cap.

Reconstructions of sea‐surface conditions during the Holocene were achieved using three sediment cores from northeastern Baffin Bay (GeoB19948‐3 and GeoB19927‐3) and the Labrador Sea (GeoB19905‐1) along a north–south transect based on sea‐ice IP25 and open‐water phytoplankton biomarkers (brassicasterol, dinosterol and HBI III).

Abstract During the past four decades significant decrease in Arctic sea ice and a dramatic ice mass loss of the Greenland Ice Sheet (GIS) has been coincident with global warming and an increase in atmospheric CO2. In Northeast Greenland significant mass loss from the outlet glaciers Nioghalvfjerdsbræ (79NG) and Zachariæ Isstrøm (ZI) and intensive ...

Abstract To evaluate the present sea ice changes in a longer‐term perspective, the knowledge of sea ice variability on preindustrial and geological time scales is essential. For the interpretation of proxy reconstructions it is necessary to understand the recent signals of different sea ice proxies from various regions.

Rationale The misuse of 7‐oxo‐DHEA (3β‐hydroxyandrost‐5‐ene‐7,17‐dione) is prohibited according to the World Anti‐Doping Agency (WADA) code. Nevertheless, it is easily available as a dietary supplement and from black market sources. In two recent doping control samples, significant amounts of its main metabolite 7β‐OH‐DHEA were identified ...

The paper focuses on the assessment of the spectrum of biological activities (antineoplastic, anti‐inflammatory, antifungal, and antibacterial) with PASS (Prediction of Activity Spectra for Substances) for the major components of three macrophytes widespread in the Holarctic species of freshwater, emergent macrophyte with floating leaves, Nuphar lutea (

Valeriana officinalis is one of the most popular medicinal plants commonly used as a sedative and sleep aid. It is suggested that its pharmacologically active compounds derived from the root may modulate the CYP3A4 gene expression by activation of pregnane X receptor (PXR) or constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) and lead to pharmacokinetic herb‐drug ...

This study highlights the role of the constitutive androstane receptor (Car), a receptor of endo and xeno‐biotics, in testicular pathophysiology. The results indicate that Car inhibition impaired male fertility due to altered sperm quality, specifically histone retention, which is correlated with offspring's survival. This work demonstrates that Car is
