Ecosystem engineers and functional dominance: when species loss matters for ecosystem function

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Understanding when and why species loss affects community function in natural communities remains an open question in ecology. Recent cross‐system analyses have shown that functional dominance is associated with whether species loss matters: in communities dominated by few high‐performing species, lost species contribute little to function.

Reflections on Comparative Teaching in Public Administration

open access: yesPublic Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article integrates our scholarly experience of teaching comparative public administration. In doing so, we offer a unique perspective as the co‐authors carry several diverse attributes, among them their countries of origin, current country in which they are teaching, and their academic experience.

Iron(III) ion reinforced P(NiPAAm‐co‐AA) beads as tunable smart organogels

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
Macroporous beads of PNiPAAm‐co‐AA copolymers were further crosslinked by iron(III) ions. The resulting beads are mechanically robust and reversibly responsive to a change of solvent from ethanol to ethyl acetate with half‐lives in the range of minutes.

Theoretical Analysis of Androstenone Adsorption on Chimpanzee and Gorilla Olfactory Receptors (G‐Protein): Statistical Physics Modeling, Molecular Docking Simulation, and Thermodynamic Investigation

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An advanced theory based on statistical physics was applied to microscopically investigate androstenone adsorption and its relationship with olfactory perception in chimpanzees and gorillas. For this purpose, dose–response curves of androstenone on olfactory receptors of chimpanzee OR7D4 and gorilla OR7D4 were analyzed by statistical physics ...

Dehydrocostus Lactone Suppresses Hepatocellular Carcinoma by Inhibiting Protein Tyrosine Kinase‐7 Mediated β‐Catenin Signaling

open access: yesPhytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Schematic summary of the experimentally supported mechanism of DHL in hepatocellular carcinoma. Dehydrocostus lactone (DHL), a sesquiterpene lactone derived from Aucklandia lappa, directly engages protein tyrosine kinase 7 (PTK7), as supported by molecular docking, CETSA, and DARTS assays.
