The economic foundations of powersharing: Evidence from Africa

American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract How—and with whom—do rulers share power? Existing research focuses on the strategic logic of powersharing. In this paper, we analyze its economic foundations. Powersharing is modeled as a subnational fiscal contract, in which rulers allocate political representation based on constituencies’ revenue potential. Empirically, we combine historical

Club Cells in Nasal Epithelial Repair: Insights From an IL‐13‐Induced Inflammatory Model

Allergy, EarlyView.
Four inflammatory endotypes of CRSwNP, defined by eosinophil and neutrophil infiltration, show distinct patterns of basal, club, ciliated, and goblet cell expression in nasal epithelium. Using an ALI‐HNECs model, we demonstrate that IL‐13 impairs mucociliary function by promoting club‐to‐goblet cell differentiation while inhibiting club‐to‐ciliated ...

Characterization of Human Group 9 Innate Lymphoid Cells in Response to Allergen Immunotherapy in Patients With Allergic Rhinitis

Allergy, EarlyView.
We aimed to report the existence and profile of group 9 innate lymphoid cells (ILC9s). Overall, ILC9 proportions in AR patients show differences compared to healthy subjects and responder SCIT patients. IL‐9 expression decreases after siRNA inhibition of Bach2 suggesting Bach2 could display as a transcription factor of ILC9.

In Situ Expression of miR‐371a‐3p and miR‐373‐3p in Testicular Germ Cell Tumours and Detection in Serum

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Testicular germ cell tumours (TGCTs) are the most common type of tumour diagnosed in young men, and reliable non‐invasive biomarkers are crucial for clinical management. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) from the miR‐371–373 cluster have recently been identified as novel and more sensitive serum biomarkers than the conventional protein‐based ...

Upregulation of sphingomyelin and ABCA8 in response to TDP‐43 pathology in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis brain

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Increases in sphingomyelin in response to TDP‐43 pathology in the disease‐affected motor cortex of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) brain. Abstract Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a rapidly progressing neurodegenerative disease characterized by the degeneration of motor neurons and the presence of TAR DNA‐binding protein 43 (TDP‐43 ...
