Anticipating Denied Futures: Temporalities of Protracted Refuge Among Congolese in Kampala
ABSTRACT This article develops a temporal perspective on protracted displacement by analysing the experiences of Congolese refugees in Kampala. It argues that displacement is both a spatial and a temporal condition, in which asylum and resettlement regimes are experienced as dispossessing refugees of their capacity to orient themselves toward the ...

Flap Anatomies and Victorian Veils: Penetrating the Female Reproductive Interior
ABSTRACT This article examines the reappearance in the early nineteenth century of anatomical flapbooks in the context of obstetrical education in Britain, America and France. It asks why liftable paper flaps were reintroduced at this time after their disappearance from medical atlases in the eighteenth century.

Investigating the effects of a cryptic splice site in the En2 splice acceptor sequence used in the IKMC knockout-first alleles [PDF]
Targeted mouse mutants are a common tool used to investigate gene function. The International Knockout Mouse Consortium undertook a large-scale screen of mouse mutants, making use of the knockout-first allele design that contains the En2 splice acceptor ...

ABSTRACT This article considers travel writings by metropolitan men in Republican China about Shanxi and western Inner Mongolia as a case study to further explore the transformations and continuities of Chinese masculinities. Drawing upon a range of popular travel narratives, it shows that so‐called “Worn‐Out Shoes (poxie)” – women perceived as ...

‘More Beastliness Than Beauty’: Gendering Pica in Seventeenth‐Century English Medicine and Culture
ABSTRACT Today, defined as the ‘persistent eating of non‐nutritive substances’, pica is a lesser‐known eating disorder with a long history. Defined in early modern England as the ‘desire to eat absurd things’, pica was explicitly gendered, associated with pregnant women and pubescent girls.

The Underexplored Mechanobiology of Lamin A Biogenesis and Homeostasis
We highlight current evidence, unresolved questions, and future directions, proposing that mechanical regulation of lamin A biogenesis represents an underexplored dimension of lamin mechanobiology with broad implications for development, aging, laminopathies, and mechanically driven diseases. ABSTRACT Lamin A is a major contributor to nuclear mechanics

SF2 is a 33 kd protein factor required for 5′ splice site cleavage and lariat formation during pre-mRNA splicing in HeLa cell extracts. In addition to its essential role in constitutive splicing, SF2 can strongly influence 5′ splice site selection.

Marine rewilding principles as a guiding framework for large‐scale ecosystem restoration
As marine ecosystems face accelerating degradation from human pressures, interest is growing in approaches that move beyond protection toward active recovery of ecological processes. This article introduces marine rewilding as a forward‐looking framework and synthesizes ecological and social science to develop eight transdisciplinary principles that ...

ABSTRACT Pancreatic beta cells are active participants in the loss of immune tolerance because their high secretory demand creates exceptional vulnerability to inflammatory exposure, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, calcium dysregulation, and redox imbalance. These conditions can promote enzymatic and nonenzymatic changes in self‐proteins, generating
