Macroecological relationships of ant diversity with increasing aridity in Australian tropical savannas: contrasting responses of epigaeic and hypogaeic assemblages

Ecography, EarlyView.
Studies using climatic gradients play a key role in our understanding of the importance of rainfall and temperature as factors regulating species diversity and distribution, and thus of likely responses to climate change. However, such studies currently consider above‐ground species only, ignoring the diverse hypogaeic (subterranean) invertebrate fauna.

Testing the effectiveness of the mt DNA Cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (COI) gene locus for identifying species of Polychaete worm (Polychaeta: Annelida) in New Zealand

, 2006
The ability to accurately identify species is fundamental to ecological research and environmental monitoring. Current taxonomic identifications often rely on differentiation of morphologically ambiguous characters, and a process of categorization which ...

Vicatia thibetica de Boiss Crude Polysaccharide Delay the Aging of the Heart and Kidneys

Food Bioengineering, EarlyView.
Vicatia thibetica de Boiss crude polysaccharide (VTCP) attenuates cardiorenal aging by reducing oxidative stress, suppressing inflammation, and alleviating fibrosis. In naturally aged mice, VTCP remodels the gut microbiota, enriching beneficial short‐chain fatty acid‐producing bacteria. We propose that VTCP protects the heart and kidneys via modulation

DNA barcoding: theoretical aspects and practical applications

, 2010
DNA barcoding is a molecular-based identification system, recently introduced in the scientific community. The method is not completely new to science, but the real innovation is not in the discrimination system itself: DNA barcoding can be considered

RETRACTED: Polygenic risk score and prostate specific antigen predict death from prostate cancer in men with intermediate aggressive cancer

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Using 21 SNPs, two novel PRS were constructed and used to develop two new machine‐learning classifiers, one for the detection of prostate cancer and the other for the prediction of its aggressiveness and subsequent mortality. The classifier for disease detection is built using the PRS as the sole feature, whereas the one for disease ...

MUC1 as a Survival Effector of Radiotherapy‐Induced Epithelial Hybrid States in Basal‐Like Breast Cancer

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Basal‐like breast cancer (BLBC) is aggressive and often exhibits inherent or acquired resistance to radiotherapy (RT), a primary treatment option. RT resistance is underpinned by molecular alterations, many of which are poorly understood. Here, RT‐induced transcriptomic changes were analyzed using bulk and spatial sequencing in a BLBC mouse model and ...
