Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Subsidized predators—native predators that have become more common due to human activities—challenge the persistence of many at‐risk prey species and require creative solutions beyond lethal predator control. In an 8‐year study, we placed small wire cages over western snowy plover nests that allow passage of plovers, but not their predators, and ...

Targeting MCL‐1 and MAPK overcomes venetoclax resistance in FLT3‐ITD‐positive AML cells harbouring activating PTPN11 (SHP‐2) mutations

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Venetoclax (VEN)‐based therapies have improved the treatment of acute myeloid leukaemia (AML); however, the emergence of resistance remains a major limitation. Mutations in protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) non‐receptor type 11 (PTPN11) and FMS like tyrosine kinase 3 with internal tandem duplication (FLT3‐ITD) are common in resistant patients ...

Citizen science reveals host‐switching in louse flies and keds (Diptera: Hippoboscidae) during a period of anthropogenic change

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
A study of louse flies in the United Kingdom, Isle of Man, and Ireland found 212 different interactions between Hippoboscidae and their hosts, of which 70 were previously unrecorded. No louse flies were found on aquatic species of birds. Host‐switching to gulls (Laridae) has occurred during a period in which these species have started relying on ...
