LIFE: A Computer Program for Stochastic Life Table Analysis
Program LIFE performs a life table analysis. The life table model may either be current or cohort, and either of these may be unabridged or abridged.

In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Expanding an abridged life table
A question of interest in the demographic and actuarial fields is the estimation of the age-specific mortality pattern when data are given in age groups. Data can be provided in such a form usually because of systematic fluctuations caused by age heaping.

Life table estimator revisited
We explore the standard life table (actuarial) estimator for grouped right-censored survival data and its extensions in order to consider its relationship with the Kaplan–Meier estimator, and to investigate the critical properties of the extended life ...

Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Comparative life table parameters of beet armyworm, Spodoptera exigua (Lep.: Noctuidae), on four commercial sugar beet cultivars [PDF]
Life table parameters of the beet armyworm, Spodoptera exigua (Hübner), on four sugar beet cultivars (Renger, FD0005, Dorothea and Shirin) were studied in laboratory at 27 ± 1°C, 60 ± 5% RH and a photoperiod of 16L: 8D hours.

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

The two-sex life table and predation rate of Oenopia conglobata contaminata (Col.: Coccinellidae) feeding on pomegranate green aphid, Aphis punicae (Hem.: Aphididae), under laboratory conditions [PDF]
The ladybird species Oenopia conglobata contaminata (Menetries) is one of the major predators of pests in the orchards across Iran. The life history and predation rate of this predator were studied under laboratory conditions with 27.5 ± 2oC, 55 ± 5 RH
