A Drosophila RNAi library modulates Hippo pathway-dependent tissue growth
Nature Communications, 2016 Drosophila RNAi libraries are commonly used to perform large-scale functional genetics screens in vivo. Here the authors find that a subset of lines from the VDRC KK RNAi line cause false-positive enhancement of the Hippo pathway, and provide a strain ...

Biotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2021 Fatty acids (FAs) in oilseeds are important for human health. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) is a popular analytical technology for FAs measurement. FAs need to be derivatized into fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs), which is essential for GC-

Child nutrition to new stage in China: evidence from a series of national surveys, 1985–2015
BMC Public Health, 2019 Background Both child under- and over-nutrition are major global public health challenges. We aimed to examine thirty-year trends in physical growth, under- and over-nutrition in Chinese urban and suburban children between 1985 and 2015, and discuss ...

Population and species neighbor identity impact trait–trait relationships and plant performance
Population Ecology, EarlyView.We evaluated how populations and species identity influence plant performance and trait outcomes in mixtures, and assessed trait variation among populations of two forb species native to the western United States (Dieteria canescens and Heterotheca villosa) following three interaction treatments (single‐population monoculture, two‐population mixture ...

Effects of chronic browsing on life‐history traits of an irruptive large herbivore population
Population Ecology, EarlyView.This study aimed to determine the relationship between diet quality, body mass, and size (hind foot length), and female reproduction and sought to identify the mechanism by which high density under severe food limitations is maintained. Our results demonstrated that sika deer introduced to Nakanoshima Island have maintained high densities through high ...

USP5-Beclin 1 axis overrides p53-dependent senescence and drives Kras-induced tumorigenicity
Nature Communications, 2022 Oncogene-induced senescence (OIS) occurs in premalignant lung adenomas, but infrequently in malignant adenocarcinomas. Here the authors show that USP5-Beclin 1 axis overcomes OIS in Kras-driven lung cancer by enhancing MDM2-mediated p53 degradation.

Dendritic cells steering antigen and leukocyte traffic in lymph nodes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Dendritic cells are key players in the activation of T cells and their commitment to effector function. In this In a Nutshell Review, we will discuss how dendritic cells guide the trafficking of antigen and leukocytes in the lymph node, thus influencing T‐cell activation processes. Dendritic cells (DCs) play a central role in initiating and shaping the
