Representation of obligate groundwater‐dwelling copepod diversity in European protected areas

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Groundwaters sustain diverse surface ecosystems and are populated by metazoan species, mostly invertebrates, that provide fundamental ecological functions and are often of prominent conservation value due to narrow endemism and high phylogenetic rarity.

The Role of Research Funders in Promoting Ethical International Health Research Collaborations

Developing World Bioethics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background International health research collaborations (IHRCs) between High Income countries (HICs) and Low‐and Middle‐Income Countries (LMICs) are essential in global health research, yet ethical challenges including the inequitable sharing of rewards and burdens among the research actors remain insufficiently addressed.

Comfort and Usability of Digital Versus Conventional Custom‐Fit Mouthguards: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Dental Traumatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Objectives The use of mouthguards protects teeth and the supporting tissues against impacts. Digital impressions and 3D‐printed models can reduce manufacturing steps and minimize discomfort. This study evaluated the fit, comfort, and usability of custom‐made mouthguards, obtained by conventional and digital workflow, in amateur ...

A supramolecular assembly of cone‐specific G‐protein and cryptochrome 4a on lipid bilayer

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Immobilized phospholipid bilayers on a sensor chip surface serve as membrane platform to investigate critical protein–lipid and protein–protein interaction processes by surface plasmon resonance. The putative magnetoreceptor cryptochrome 4a and the myristoylated cone‐specific G‐protein α‐subunit (Gtα) bind with high affinity to immobilized lipid ...

Engineering Escherichia coli for high-yielding 2,5-Dimethylpyrazine synthesis from L-Threonine by reconstructing metabolic pathways and enhancing cofactors regeneration

Biotechnology for Biofuels and Bioproducts
2,5-Dimethylpyrazine (2,5-DMP) is important pharmaceutical raw material and food flavoring agent. Recently, engineering microbes to produce 2,5-DMP has become an attractive alternative to chemical synthesis approach.

Longitudinal changes in plasma biomarkers of immune activation, neuronal inflammation and injury in persons with HIV initiating ART

HIV Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Data on changes in biomarkers of brain health, and their associations with cognitive function in adults commencing either dual‐ or triple‐antiretroviral therapy (ART) are sparse. Methods Plasma biomarkers (neurofilament light [NfL], glial fibrillary acidic protein [GFAP], sCD14, CXCL10, neopterin and IL‐6) were measured at baseline ...

Inflammation‐Regeneration Axis of Dental Pulp Stem Cells: Wnt/NF‐κB Crosstalk

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Inflammation critically determines dental pulp regenerative outcomes, with dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) orchestrating tissue homeostasis through differentiation, self‐renewal and immunomodulation processes dynamically regulated by Wnt/β‐catenin and NF‐κB signaling crosstalk.

Genome and transcriptome‐based identification and expression profiling of chemosensory gene families across developmental stages and tissues in Sirex noctilio (Hymenoptera: Siricidae)

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
The first draft genome of Sirex noctilio was produced. Fifteen S. noctilio transcriptomes were sequenced to study chemosensory gene expression patterns. SnocOR16 and SnocSNMP1 displayed tissue‐ and sex‐specific expression patterns. Abstract The Sirex woodwasp (Sirex noctilio; Hymenoptera: Siricidae) is among the most destructive invasive pests ...
