Resveratrol Attenuates Obesity by Inducing GDF15 Expression via the p38‐ATF3 Signaling Pathway
Resveratrol dose‐dependently upregulates GDF15 expression in murine and human cells via the p38‐ATF3 signaling axis. In high‐fat diet fed mice, resveratrol elevates systemic and tissue GDF15 levels, thereby reducing food intake and weight gain and conferring resistance to diet‐induced obesity. This study identifies a novel p38‐ATF3‐GDF15 axis mediating

Sexual reproduction in invasive Japanese knotweed (Reynoutria japonica) in south Sweden
To understand the potential for northward expansion of knotweeds into currently uninvaded regions, it is crucial to assess the potential for sexual reproduction alongside the ongoing vegetative spread. For that reason, we tested viability in Reynoutria japonica seeds in south Sweden, a region where viable seeds had not been previously reported ...

Phenotypic plasticity of invasive knotweed across Europe: A distributed common garden experiment
In a common garden experiment with 46 populations of the invasive knotweed Reynoutria japonica planted across three sites in Europe, we found little evidence for local adaptation, but consistent strong phenotypic plasticity (‘general purpose genotype’), with a more acquisitive growth strategy in the south and a more conservative strategy and change of ...
