Can omnivores be considered keystone species? Bears as a study case
Abstract The functional roles of herbivores and carnivores in ecosystems have been relatively well studied: both can shape ecosystems through strong direct and indirect top‐down controls on other guilds. By contrast, the role omnivores play has been rarely explored, even though their diet spans several trophic levels and potentially has numerous ...

Association of runoff risk with private well contamination in a fractured dolostone aquifer
Abstract In the United States, private well owners are responsible for monitoring and maintaining their drinking water but have little control over neighboring contamination sources and limited information about daily water quality. Potential for rapid contamination in karst settings exacerbates the challenge.

Protein Lactylation in Cancer: From Mechanisms to Therapy
Increased glycolysis and lactate accumulation promote histone and nonhistone protein lactylation, linking tumor metabolic reprogramming to treatment adaptation. Lactylation enhances DNA repair, suppresses antitumor immunity, strengthens antioxidant defenses, and facilitates cell‐cycle checkpoint escape, collectively promoting resistance to chemotherapy,

Marine Plug Flow Bioreactors Provide a High‐Throughput Assay of Potential DOC Bioavailability
Abstract Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) forms the largest reservoir of reduced carbon in the ocean, yet its bioavailability and the microbial processes governing its transformation remain poorly constrained. Traditional seawater batch cultures have been indispensable for measuring bioavailable DOC (BDOC), but their long incubation times and limited ...

ABSTRACT The interplay between diet, gut microbiota, and host immunity is central to food science. The Lachnospiraceae family ferments dietary fibers to produce short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs), notably butyrate and propionate, with immunomodulatory potential. This critical review distinguishes established findings from hypotheses.
