A role for epithelium‐derived 6‐nitrodopamine on human ureter contractility
Abstract Background and Purpose To investigate the basal release of 6‐nitrodopamine (6‐ND) from human isolated ureter and the role of this novel catecholamine in the ureter contractility. Experimental Approach Ureters from 67 brain‐dead organ donors (40 males and 27 females) were used during kidney transplantation procedures.

Plant Functional Traits and Vegetation Structure Explain Pollination Networks at Scale
Being able to quantify interactions between different taxa at scale is critical for understanding terrestrial ecosystem functioning and global food production, as in the case of plant‐pollinator interactions. Here, we apply plant functional strategies remotely sensed at the landscape scale to predict the structure of plant‐pollinator networks at a ...

Alogliptin Delays the Healing of Traumatic Oral Ulcers in the Buccal Mucosa of Wistar Rats
ABSTRACT Objective The objective of this study is to evaluate the influence of alogliptin treatment on the healing process of traumatic oral ulcers. Methods Four experimental groups were used: control group (GC) and three test groups treated with oral Alogliptin at 1 (GTA1), 3 (GTA3), and 9 mg/kg/day (GTA9). Ulcer diameter, body weight, glycemic index,

Regional firewood‐related GHG emissions in Brazil declined over three decades due to reduced extractive use, while silvicultural emissions grew and formed distinct spatial clusters. These contrasting trajectories highlight uneven regional transitions and reveal where targeted policies can most effectively advance sustainable, low‐carbon bioenergy ...

Adherence to Clotting Factor Prophylaxis in Adolescent and Adult Males With Haemophilia
ABSTRACT Introduction Clotting factor prophylaxis remains the most prescribed standard‐of‐care treatment for people with haemophilia (PwH). Prophylaxis prevents bleeds, joint damage, and improves quality of life (QoL). Its success depends on treatment adherence, consisting of socioeconomic, behavioural, and disease‐ or therapy‐related factors.

Growth, Photosynthesis and Root Metabolome Responses to Graded Hypoxia in Contrasting Rice Cultivars
ABSTRACT Rice is an economically important crop and a staple food for a large proportion of the world's population. Although rice is generally adapted to flooded soils, cultivars may differ in their responses to reduced oxygen availability. Here, we evaluated growth, physiological performance and organ‐specific metabolic profiles of two rice cultivars ...
