Microbiome‐mediated immunity: Limited support from the gazelle dung beetle

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Digitonthophagus gazella rely on a maternally inherited microbiome passed across generations via a maternal faecal pellet called the pedestal. We experimentally manipulated the presence of the pedestal, providing it to some individuals while withholding it from others to determine how pedestal microbiota may affect beetle immune potential.

Professional Training and Clinical/Radiographic Factors Associated With Endodontic Decision‐Making: A Before‐and‐After Study

European Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Endodontic decision‐making is influenced by clinicians' professional training and by the clinical and radiographic characteristics of each case. This study aimed to assess the association of these factors with treatment decisions and to determine whether the addition of clinical information modifies treatment choices compared with

Post‐Hoc Long‐Read Sequencing Links Leukemic Mutation Status to Single‐Cell Transcriptomes

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Single‐cell RNA‐sequencing‐based characterization of cells that belong to the neoplastic clone is a major challenge in hematologic neoplasms, where malignant and normal cells coexist. Confident molecular profiling requires simultaneous analysis of gene expression and genetic mutations in individual cells, an ability that is not supported by ...

The Liquidity Sprint: Short‐Term Cash Needs and Access to Credit

European Financial Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We identify the causal drivers of the COVID‐19 ‘dash‐for‐cash’ in Europe using a hand‐collected panel of Euro‐area firms (2018‐Q4–2020‐Q3). Exploiting regional infection intensity as an instrument, we find that a one‐unit EBITDA decline raised credit‐line utilization by 15.5 percentage points in 2020‐Q2. Unlike the US ‘fallen‐angel’ narrative,

Dimerization of human PARP15 is required for NAD+ binding and automodification

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
This study provides an integrated structural model of human PARP15. Biophysical, enzymatic, and cell‐based analyses identify the dimer as the active oligomeric state capable of binding the substrate NAD+. A co‐crystal structure with a non‐hydrolyzable substrate analog BAD reveals the molecular basis for the dimerization requirement.

Risk Perceptions and Corporate Financing Behavior

Financial Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Using a recently developed measure of financial market risk perceptions, we show that risk perceptions affect firm‐level corporate financing behavior. Firms tend to adjust their capital structures to cater to investors' appetite for risk. When perceived risks are low, firms tend to choose more leveraged capital structures to take advantage of ...
