Evaluation of the effect of an extract of Sphingomonas xenophaga present in a Thermal Spring Water in the management of sensitive skin associated with cutaneous vascular disorder. [PDF]

Int J Cosmet Sci
Inhibition of the kallikrein‐kinin system is a potential approach to the dermocosmetic treatment of skin disorders associated with redness. We showed that a cream formulation with a Sphingomonas ferment extract inhibiting this system was effective in improving vascular disorder after repeated application in female volunteers with sensitive and reactive

Impact of Seasonal Variation on Antioxidant, Enzyme Inhibitory, and Anti-Inflammatory Potentials of Cistus creticus Leaf Extracts. [PDF]

ChemistryOpen
The phytochemical profile and biological activities of Cistus creticus leaf ethanolic extracts show strong seasonal variation. Spring extracts contain the highest phenolic levels with potent antioxidant and anti‐inflammatory effects, while summer extracts are richest in flavonoids and exhibit the greatest sun protection factor value and enzyme ...

Mapping the density of giant trees in the Amazon. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary Tall trees (height ≥ 60 m) are keystone elements of tropical forests, strongly influencing biodiversity, carbon storage, and ecosystem resilience. Yet, their density and spatial distribution remain poorly quantified, especially in remote Amazonian regions, limiting our understanding of their ecological roles and contribution to forest–climate ...

Habitat and land-use intensity shape moth community structure across temperate forest and grassland. [PDF]

J Anim Ecol
This study reveals how land‐use intensity, plant diversity, weather and artificial light interact to shape moth diversity across forests and grasslands. Using 300 plots across Germany, we highlight habitat‐specific responses and beta‐diversity patterns, providing novel cross‐habitat insights at an unprecedented spatial scale for temperate nocturnal ...

Congo Basin Carbon Cycle Responses to Global Change. [PDF]

Glob Chang Biol
Understanding the resilience of the Congo Basin carbon cycle in the face of current and future pressures requires a detailed understanding of its response to past and present drivers of change. Building on a pantropical framework of drivers and possible regional mechanisms for resilience, this review provides the first comprehensive assessment of Congo

Effects of Biodiversity Loss on Freshwater Ecosystem Functions Increase With the Number of Stressors. [PDF]

Glob Chang Biol
The paper reports results of a meta‐analysis addressing the effect of multiple stressors on the relationship between biodiversity and four measures of ecosystem function in freshwater ecosystems. We found that the positive relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem functions becomes stronger as the number of stressors increases, indicating that ...
