Urban wild meat and pangolin consumption across southern forested Cameroon: The limited influence of COVID‐19

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Overexploitation of wildlife is pervasive in many tropical regions, and in addition to being a significant conservation and sustainability concern, it has received global attention given discussions over the origins of zoonotic disease outbreaks.

Wild meat consumption in changing rural landscapes of Indonesian Borneo

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Wild meat can play a crucial role in the food system of rural communities residing near tropical forests. Yet, socio‐ecological changes across tropical landscapes are impacting the patterns and sustainability of meat consumption. To understand the prevalence, frequency and drivers of wild meat, domestic meat and fish consumption in this ...

Bushmeat consumption frequency and preferences among rural households in a West African savanna landscape: Implications for food security and conservation

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The drivers of consumer demand for bushmeat are relatively well studied in tropical forest systems, but much less so in savanna areas. This is important because differing ecological and socio‐economic conditions lead to different factors affecting the relationship between local communities and their natural resources.

Exploring consumer preferences for wild meat and other animal proteins in Gamba, Gabon: Implications for conservation and management of natural resources alongside extractive industry

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The town of Gamba in southwest Gabon represents an exceptional example of how the development of an extractive industry (in this case oil production) may impact wild meat consumption in an area of global importance for biodiversity. Studies in the 1990s identified an active wild meat trade; however, no studies have been undertaken since, and ...

Identification of Novel Interacting Proteins of FUZ and GPR161

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Protein–protein interactions are central to the dynamic regulation of signaling pathways and provide critical insight into the cellular mechanisms underlying human disease. Our previous study demonstrated biochemical and genetic interactions between FUZ and GPR161 in sonic hedgehog signaling during spinal neural tube development. In this study,

Phytochemicals as Multitarget Therapeutics in Pancreatic Cancer: Mechanisms, Clinical Evidence, and Translational Challenges

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Pancreatic cancer, particularly pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, is aggressive and often diagnosed late, making treatment challenging. This review highlights the potential of phytochemicals, such as curcumin and quercetin, as multitarget agents that influence key carcinogenic pathways. These compounds exhibit anticancer effects by inhibiting processes

Progress in bone tissue engineering biomaterials: Development, challenges, and prospects

VIEW, EarlyView.
Scheme 1 Application of biomaterials in immunomodulation during bone tissue engineering. Abstract Bone defect repair remains a major clinical challenge in orthopedics. Over 2 million cases caused by trauma, tumors, and other factors occur annually, with large‐scale defects posing a particular bottleneck due to limited self‐healing capacity.
