From pollen provision to pollinator: Species‐specific sterol assimilation by wild bees in urban landscapes

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Human‐driven landscape change, particularly urbanization, is reshaping pollinator communities, yet the functional traits that mediate species persistence remain poorly understood. Dietary specialization is commonly used to predict species vulnerability.

Fecal Steroids as Tracers of Human Population and Waste Management Practices at the Ancient Maya City of Ucanal, Guatemala

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Geochemical data compiled from dried sediments from three water reservoirs at the ancient Maya city of Ucanal, Petén, Guatemala, reveal low to undetectable fecal biomarker concentrations. These low concentrations may be the result of the aerobic decay of sterols combined with well‐managed waste disposal practices.

Chimera Ligand for Pili and Lectin A Protein Controls Antibiotic-Promoted Biofilm Formation, Swarming Motility, Tolerance and Persister Formation by Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]

, 2018
Throughout the human history, the fight against bacterial infections had never stopped but the remedies for bacterial infections were often insufficient and for many infectious diseases, there was no treatment available.

High cholesterol absorption efficiency enhances proatherogenic properties of low‐density lipoprotein particles

Journal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Aims High cholesterol absorption efficiency is determined by genetic variation in small intestinal sterol transporters and affects one‐third of individuals. Their risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is increased compared with low cholesterol absorbers, despite similar serum lipid concentrations.

The Genetic Landscape of Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia in Greece

Clinical Genetics, Volume 109, Issue 5, Page 837-846, May 2026.
We investigated 112 Greek index‐cases with hereditary spastic paraplegia collected over > 25 years using NGS and MLPA. We identified a causative variant in 68 patients (60.7%), including 7 novel causative variants. This study presents a comprehensive overview of the phenotypic and genotypic spectrum of HSP in the Greek population.

High cholesterol absorption efficiency interferes with bile acid metabolism and cholesterol elimination from the body

Journal of Internal Medicine, Volume 299, Issue 5, Page 628-638, May 2026.
Abstract Background Elevated low‐density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol causes atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases. Variables of whole‐body cholesterol metabolism, for example, high cholesterol absorption efficiency, might also be atherogenic, whereas the role of bile acids is controversial.

Lueyang Black‐Boned Chicken and Black Bean Soup Promoting the Acute Healing of Skin Wounds, Accompanying Special Flavor Substances

Food Chemistry International, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 46-57, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Animal protein and plant protein make the protein supplement more comprehensive and further optimize the nutritional structure of the national diet. In this study, a “dual protein” Lueyang black‐boned chicken and black bean soup (FS) was prepared.

Safety and Effectiveness of Pharmacy Compounded Chenodeoxycholic Acid Capsules for Patients With Cerebrotendinous Xanthomatosis

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 49, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) is an essential drug for patients with rare metabolic disease cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX). To ensure continuation of treatment, the Amsterdam UMC hospital pharmacy developed pharmacy compounded CDCA capsules when the authorized CDCA capsules were no longer available for Dutch patients.

The fate of lipids in archaeological burials [PDF]

, 2013
Geochemical techniques have been developed in order to systematically analyse soils collected from several burial sites. Through the extraction and GC analysis of burial soils organic signatures that inform an understanding of the burial environment ...
