Building Resilience: Empowering Agro‐Pastoralists Against Climate Variability in Laikipia, Kenya

Climate Resilience and Sustainability, Volume 5, Issue 1, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Climate change poses significant challenges for agricultural systems in Africa, particularly affecting agro‐pastoral communities dependent on crops and livestock for their livelihoods. This study investigates the impact of adaptation strategies on climate resilience among agro‐pastoral communities in Laikipia County, Kenya. It applies the Food

Evaluation of Photophysical Properties and Biological Applications of Diarylmethanes

ChemistryOpen, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2026.
The wide applications of diarylmethanes were investigated through various experimental and computational approaches. The solvent environment influences the electronic properties of diarylmethanes and hence their drug‐like properties. Interactions with PARP1 revealed stable binding supporting anticancer potential.

The maximum index of signed complete graphs whose negative edges induce a bicyclic graph

Let $Γ=(K_n,H)$ be a signed complete graph whose negative edges induce a subgraph $H$. Let $A(Γ)$ be the adjacency matrix of the signed graph $Γ$. The largest eigenvalue of $A(Γ)$ is called the index of $Γ$.

Quadratic forms on graphs with application to minimizing the least eigenvalue of signless Laplacian over bicyclic graphs

, 2014
Given a graph and a vector defined on the graph, a quadratic form is defined on the graph depending on its edges. In order to minimize the quadratic form on trees or unicyclic graphs associated with signless Laplacian, the notion of basic edge set of a ...

Discovery of a Novel γ‐Glutamylcyclotransferase Inhibitor Plumbagin by Luminescence‐Based High‐Throughput Screening

Cancer Science, Volume 117, Issue 6, Page 1713-1723, June 2026.
A cell‐based high‐throughput screening system utilizing the luminescent probe LISA‐103 was developed to monitor γ‐glutamylcyclotransferase (GGCT) activity in cancer cells. Through this assay, plumbagin was identified as a novel GGCT inhibitor that induces cell cycle arrest and suppresses cancer cell growth. ABSTRACT γ‐Glutamylcyclotransferase (GGCT) is

The Impact of Parenthood on the Gender Gap in Italy

LABOUR, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 101-130, June 2026.
ABSTRACT We examine the impact of parenthood on labor market outcomes for men and women in Italy. We perform two analyses. First, we use a fixed effects framework to examine the impact of marriage and childbearing on labor market outcomes separately for men and women.

Assessing the exercise‐related kinetics of circulating cell‐free DNA, circulating tumour DNA, DNase I activity and cytokines in patients with solid tumours: A pilot study

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 6, Page 2963-2974, 1 June 2026.
Abstract Circulating cell‐free DNA (cfDNA), circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) and inflammatory cytokines have prognostic and predictive value in oncology. However, the effects of acute exercise on cfDNA levels are unknown. Here, we explore the kinetics of cfDNA, ctDNA and cytokines upon an incremental exercise test in a pilot cohort of cancer patients ...
