At middle age there is insulin resistance in subcutaneous white adipose tissue, which is improved by caloric restriction. Differentially expressed miRNAs in this tissue during aging may modulate key genes implicated in the insulin signaling pathway, leading to the progressive appearance of insulin resistance during aging.

A reflective evaluation of young water professionals' transdisciplinary learning
Abstract The urgent requirement for transdisciplinary water professionals who can navigate the cascading complexities of water resources in a thirsty, inequitable world is widely acknowledged. To deliver a sustainable water resources sector, current water professionals need to synthesize diverse disciplinary knowledge, develop systemic thinking ...

The role of cell size in shaping responses to oxygen and temperature in fruit flies
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The body size of an animal is strongly coupled to key ecological traits such as fecundity, mortality and growth. Ectothermic animals mature at smaller body sizes in warmer conditions and under low oxygen availability (hypoxia).

The limits of limit cases: Sexual ethics and graduate student–staff relationships
Abstract This article examines whether, and if so how, the alternative model of sexual ethics, namely, a pleasure and care‐centred ethic of embodied and relational sexual Otherness, performs when given scenarios or case studies that push up against its ethico‐political limits.

Abstract Successful conservation of long‐lived species requires reliable understanding of long‐term trends and historical baselines. We present a framework for evaluating abundance trends and conservation outcomes for long‐lived marine species by integrating local ecological knowledge (LEK), ecological monitoring, and computer simulation, tested on a ...

Abstract Background. Virus‐like particles (VLPs) are a multivalent platform showing great promise for the development of vaccines, gene therapy, diagnostic, and drug delivery approaches. Particularly, HIV‐1 Gag VLPs provide a robust and flexible scaffold for the presentation of a variety of antigens. The insect cell baculovirus expression vector system

The dynamical behavior of the rational vectorial operator associated with a multidimensional iterative method on polynomial systems gives us interesting information about the stability of the iterative scheme. The stability of fixed points, dynamic planes, bifurcation diagrams, etc. are known tools that provide us this information.

In this contribution, we use the connection between stable polynomials and orthogonal polynomials on the real line to construct sequences of Hurwitz polynomials that are robustly stable in terms of several uncertain parameters. These sequences are constructed by using properties of orthogonal polynomials, such as the well‐known three‐term recurrence ...
