Decline in extinction rates and scale invariance in the fossil record

, 1998
We show that the decline in the extinction rate during the Phanerozoic can be accurately parameterized by a logarithmic fit to the cumulative total extinction. This implies that extinction intensity is falling off approximately as the reciprocal of time.

Real‐Time In Vivo Visualization of Tumor‐Associated Macrophage Reprogramming Using a Nitric Oxide‐Activatable NIR‐II Nanoinducer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Reprogramming tumor‐associated macrophages is a promising therapeutic strategy for solid tumors. Here, a nitric oxide (NO)‐activatable NIR‐II fluorescence/photoacoustic nanoinducer (I/E@M2pep) that simultaneously facilitates and visualizes the repolarization of TAMs to an M1‐like phenotype is reported, thereby enhancing anti‐tumor efficacy through M1 ...

Neuromodulator Dynamics Underlying Associative Learning in the Ventral Striatum's Olfactory Tubercle

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Using fiber photometry and genetically encoded sensors, the dynamic release patterns of four neuromodulators in the olfactory tubercle (OT)—a brain region overlapping with the olfactory cortex and ventral striatum—were systematically monitored in response to external rewards and distinct reward‐associated learning processes.

Enzymatic Basis for the Oxidative Branch of Aromatic Amino Acid Fermentation Leading to p‐cresol Formation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In anaerobic bacteria, tyrosine serves as an electron donor in the oxidative Stickland fermentation branch, generating p‐hydroxyphenylacetate, ATP and reduced ferredoxin for decarboxylation into p‐cresol. ABSTRACT The phenolic metabolite p‐cresol is a byproduct of tyrosine fermentation by certain strictly anaerobic bacteria, including the human gut ...

Biological recycling theory: a cyclic network framework for evolutionary innovation and recovery

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution
IntroductionLife’s macroevolutionary patterns—rapid post-extinction recoveries and bursts of novelty—are not fully explained by mutation and vertical descent alone.

Artificial Intelligence in Autonomous Mobile Robot Navigation: From Classical Approaches to Intelligent Adaptation

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping autonomous mobile robot navigation beyond classical pipelines. This review analyzes how AI techniques are integrated into core navigation tasks, including path planning and control, localization and mapping, perception, and context‐aware decision‐making. Learning‐based, probabilistic, and soft‐computing methods

Scalp electroacupuncture targeting trigeminal nerve activation alleviates post‐traumatic stress disorder–induced depression and neuroinflammation in mice

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Scalp electroacupuncture (SA) through activation of the trigeminal pathway exerts anti‐inflammatory, antidepressant, and anxiolytic effects in an animal model of post‐traumatic stress disorder induced by single prolonged stress. This suggests that SA is involved in neuroinflammation and changes in brain‐derived neurotrophic factor protein through the ...
