Prevention of Early Onset of Breast Cancer With Ashwagandha

open access: yesMolecular Carcinogenesis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Prevention of breast cancer is feasible because many risk factors for this malignancy are known (e.g., family history, reproductive factors, etc.). Medicinal plants and/or their bioactive phytochemicals are attractive for the prevention of early onset of breast cancer due to their generally favorable safety profile.

Allocation of Indivisible Items With a Common Preference Graph: Minimizing Total Dissatisfaction

open access: yesNetworks, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Allocating indivisible items among a set of agents is a frequently studied discrete optimization problem. In the setting considered in this work, the agents' preferences over the items are assumed to be identical. We consider a very recent measure for the overall quality of an allocation which does not rely on numerical valuations of the items.

Does bigger mean sicker? A systematic review and meta‐analysis of the intraspecific relationship between host body size and parasite infection across vertebrate taxa

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Elucidating the determinants of parasite infection levels of individuals within a population is a basic but important step for understanding the roles of parasites in natural systems. Among intraspecific studies on vertebrate hosts and metazoan parasites, host body size (length/mass) is probably the most frequently reported factor determining parasite ...

Rainforest conversion to monoculture plantations restructures functional communities of braconid parasitoid wasps

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
The conversion of rainforests into rubber and oil palm plantations drives biodiversity loss in Southeast Asia. Parasitoid wasps are highly diverse and play an essential role in ecosystems by regulating herbivore populations. Declines in density and diversity of parasitoid wasps, after land‐use change is well‐documented, but potential functional losses ...

The Symbiocene as a transformative vision

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract We live in times of crises and calls for a transformative social‐ecological change are voiced increasingly often. The question is, however, how such a transformation could be achieved. The prevailing view is that we are living in an era in which human activities significantly altered planet Earth: the Anthropocene. According to this narrative,

Caring with forests: Human and more‐than‐human care in forest occupations in Germany

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Drawing on ongoing ethnographic and participatory action research within forest occupations in Germany, this paper develops the concept of ‘caring with forests’ to theorise the mutual, multidimensional relationships of care that emerge between humans and more‐than‐human beings in environmental protest settings.

Early Growth Response 1‐Associated Epithelial Autophagy‐Related Changes in Allergic Airway Inflammation

open access: yesPediatric Discovery, EarlyView.
House dust mite (HDM) exposure induces early growth response 1 (EGR1) expression in airway epithelial cells and is accompanied by autophagy‐associated alterations, including increased LC3B‐II and Vps34 levels and decreased p62 abundance. Manipulation of EGR1 expression modulates these autophagy‐related changes, whereas pharmacological inhibition of ...
