From whole bodies to single cells: A guide to transcriptomic approaches for ecology and evolutionary biology. [PDF]

Mol Ecol
Abstract RNA sequencing (RNAseq) methodology has experienced a burst of technological developments in the last decade, which has opened up opportunities for studying the mechanisms of adaptation to environmental factors at both the organismal and cellular level. Selecting the most suitable experimental approach for specific research questions and model

A systematic review and meta-analysis of diet and nutrient intake in adults with irritable bowel syndrome. [PDF]

Neurogastroenterol Motil
Results of this systematic review and meta‐analysis suggests that fiber and vitamin D intake are suboptimal in IBS. However, overall intake of other macro‐ and micronutrients do not appear to be compromised. Causes and consequences of reduced fiber and Vitamin D intake in IBS deserve further study.

Growth Pattern and Condition in the Mudskipper Scartelaos histophorus in the Mekong Delta [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Analysis of 1436 mudskippers (Scartelaos histophorus) from the Mekong Delta revealed consistently negative allometric growth. Growth exponents and condition factors were higher in females and during the dry season, emphasizing the roles of life‐history and hydrological drivers in estuarine adaptation. ABSTRACT Studies of the length–weight relationship (

An Autistic "Linguatype"? Neologisms, New Words, and New Insights. [PDF]

Autism Res
ABSTRACT In this commentary, we present new ideas about autistic neologisms. This essay has two primary goals. First, we argue that an autistic predilection to form neologisms generates intriguing new hypotheses about language in autism, including the possibility that a tendency to use neologisms could be a featural element of an autistic “linguatype” (

Measuring juvenile habitat quality for fishes and invertebrates. [PDF]

Biol Rev Camb Philos Soc
ABSTRACT Identifying the role of marine and estuarine habitats in supporting fish and invertebrate populations during vulnerable juvenile life stages is essential to achieve effective conservation and fisheries management. There remains general agreement that: (i) the quality of juvenile habitat is best measured as the contribution of juveniles to ...

Anti‐inflammatory mechanisms in cancer research: Characterization of a distinct M2‐like macrophage model derived from the THP‐1 cell line

Cancer Medicine, Volume 12, Issue 23, Page 21172-21187, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Aims Macrophages play an essential role in cancer development. Tumor‐associated macrophages (TAMs) have predominantly M2‐like attributes that are associated with tumor progression and poor patient survival. Numerous methods have been reported for differentiating and polarizing macrophages in vitro, but there is no standardized and validated ...

Drought‐stress induced changes of fatty acid composition affecting sunflower grain yield and oil quality

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 11, Issue 12, Page 7718-7731, December 2023., 2023
Drought stress can affect agronomic and quality characteristics of sunflower. The results indicated that sunflower hybrids benefit from the escape strategy differentially to adapt to the drought stress condition. However, this adaptation changes sunflower fatty acid profile that reduces grain yield and quality of sunflower oil.

Obesity Discrimination in the Recruitment Process: "You're Not Hired!". [PDF]

, 2016
Previous literature reports that obese persons are discriminated in the workplace. Evidence suggests that obese people are perceived as having less leadership potential, and in comparison to normal weight peers, are expected to be less successful.

Recovery of fat snook, Centropomus parallelus (Teleostei: Perciformes) after subchronic exposure to copper

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part C: Toxicology & Pharmacology, 2013
We studied the recovery of juvenile fat snook (Centropomus parallelus) after subchronic exposure to different concentrations of copper. Healthy juveniles (1.98 g) were exposed to 25 or 50 μg Cu/L for 30 days (12 replicates with 5 fish in each one), and recovery was observed at 0, 4, 10, and 30 days after exposure (3 replicates with 5 fish in each one).
