Analysis of abrupt transitions in ecological systems [PDF]

Ecosphere, 2011
The occurrence and causes of abrupt transitions, thresholds, or regime shifts between ecosystem states are of great concern and the likelihood of such transitions is increasing for many ecological systems. General understanding of abrupt transitions has been advanced by theory, but hindered by the lack of a common, accessible, and data-driven approach ...

An In Vitro Gut–Liver–Adipose Axis Model to Evaluate the Anti-Obesity Potential of a Novel Probiotic–Polycosanol Combination

Foods
The gut-liver-adipose axis plays a pivotal role in metabolic regulation, and its dysregulation contributes to obesity and metabolic syndrome. Probiotics and polycosanol have shown potential in modulating gut barrier integrity, lipid metabolism, and ...
