When Accounting Qualities Collide: Accruals Quality, Comparability and Information Risk in SEO Underpricing

Accounting &Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine how accounting quality attributes jointly mitigate underpricing associated with two dimensions of information risk in seasoned equity offerings (SEOs). In information environments with relatively more potent information asymmetry, the evidence suggests that accruals quality and accounting comparability act as substitutes; i.e ...

Inhibition of the NR4A1‐mediated cell cycle checkpoint enhances hyperplastic adipogenesis and glucose homeostasis in obesity

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose The nuclear receptor NR4A1 is a critical node in transcriptional circuits for metabolic adaptation, yet its role in adipocyte progenitor (AP) fate and proliferation is unclear. We sought to define how NR4A1 governs early adipogenesis and adipose tissue plasticity.
