Modeling the additional root cohesion of four sub-tropical shrub and tree species [PDF]

, 2021
The effect of plant roots on hillslope stabilization against rainfall-induced shallow landslides depends on the mutual interaction between biotechnical characteristics of the root system (i.e., root length, root tensile strength, root area, root diameter

How lived experiences of illness trajectories, burdens of treatment, and social inequalities shape service user and caregiver participation in health and social care: a theory-informed qualitative evidence synthesis

Health and Social Care Delivery Research
Background The workload service users and caregivers take on, and their capacity to do this work, when they engage with and participate in different kinds of care is important.

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Attribution of Runoff Change in the Taohe River Basin Under a Changing Environment

Shuitu baochi yanjiu, 2020
The recorded runoff in arid region presented a dramatically decline trend induced by environment change. It is of significance to quantitatively analyze the influences induced by different drivers for supporting river basin management.

Rab14 regulates the transport of human papillomavirus to the trans‐Golgi network for infectious cell entry

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the small GTPase Rab14 is necessary for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and plays an essential role in the transport of virions to the trans‐Golgi network (TGN). HPV in the early endosome (EE), which harbors GTP‐bound Rab14, is transported to the TGN through the switch of Rab14 from its GTP‐bound to GDP‐bound form.

Rising Net Shortwave Radiation and Land Surface Temperature Drive Snow Cover Phenology Shifts Across the Mongolian Plateau During the 2000–2022 Hydrological Years

Remote Sensing
Snow cover phenology (SCP) serves as a critical regulator of hydrological cycles and ecosystem stability across the Mongolian Plateau (MP). Despite its importance, the spatiotemporal patterns of SCP and their climatic drivers remain poorly quantified ...

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Evapotranspiration Estimation with the Budyko Framework for Canadian Watersheds

Hydrology
Actual evapotranspiration (AET) estimation plays a crucial role in watershed management. Hydrological models are commonly used to simulate watershed responses and estimate AET.

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Team formation and biased self-attribution [PDF]

, 2005
We analyze the impact of individuals' self-attribution biases on the formation of teams in the workplace. We consider a two periods model in which workers jointly decide whether to form a team or work alone.
