ABSTRACT The regulation of business is increasingly characterized by “soft” governance regimes that blur the boundaries of public and private authority, as signaled by the rapid proliferation of multistakeholder initiatives in global governance. This article explores how the spread of multistakeholderism creates opportunities for new forms of strategic

Potential health benefits of cold‐water immersion: the central role of PGC‐1α
Abstract figure legend Cold‐water immersion (CWI) elicits autonomic, somato‐motoric (shivering thermogenesis), endocrine and metabolic, sensory transduction, and local biophysical effects that may converge on the transcriptional co‐activator PGC‐1α (centre).

Hibernation: the immune system at rest?
Mammalian hibernation consists of torpor phases when metabolism is severely depressed, and T can reach as low as approximately -2 degrees C, interrupted by euthermic arousal phases.

Abstract Studies of lobbying typically look at the extent to which interest groups realize political goals on issues they actively lobby for. Little is known, however, about the extent to which interest groups attain their political goals without making an active lobbying effort.

Mammal hibernation as a strategy for adaptation to unfavorable environmental conditions
To analyse the literature data on the survival pathways of heterothermic endotherms in unfavorable environmental conditions, during periods of low availability of food resources.The article provides data on the differences between daily and seasonal ...

Is Cold Acclimatization Necessary for Mammalian Hibernation
(1) In this study hibernator rodents were exposed to a warm environment and then a cold environment to determine whether cold acclimatization is necessary to permit a hibernator to go into dormancy.

Hibernation induces significant molecular and cellular adaptations in the retina to maintain function under reduced metabolic conditions. This study aimed to investigate the expression of neuronal, synaptic, and glial markers in the retina of ...

ABSTRACT Species distributions are shaped by complex biotic and abiotic interactions, which are often not fully understood. We investigated the ecological basis of co‐occurrence and distribution of four partially sympatric and allopatric cryptic mouse lemur species (Microcebus spp.) in the Ambatosoa and Analanjirofo region of northeastern Madagascar ...

ABSTRACT Norway spruce will likely remain an important tree species in Europe over the next few decades despite efforts to transform forests and reduce its distribution range more to its natural range. Consequently, Ips typographus will remain one of the most relevant forest pests the management of which will become increasingly challenging due to ...

The hibernating mammal presents several unique features as regards metabolism. The change from the homoiothermic to the poikilothermic condition, and vice versa, is of considerable interest.
