Does outdoor light contribute to ovarian cancer mortality? Insights from a case-control study

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Unfavorable light environments, including artificial light at night (ALAN) and ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation, may be linked to ovarian cancer, but this association remains uncertain.

Effects of street lighting technologies on the success and quality of pollination in a nocturnally pollinated plant

Ecosphere, 2019
Artificial light at night (ALAN) is an increasingly important driver of global change. Lighting directly affects plants, but few studies have investigated indirect effects mediated by interacting organisms.

RETHINKING HOW WE LIGHT AT NIGHT: CUTTING LIGHT POLLUTION FOR MORE SUSTAINABLE NIGHTS

Journal of Green Building, 2012
INTRODUCTION Nighttime lighting is an essential part of modern society, yet all too often inefficient practices are employed that lead to poor visibility, energy waste, and light pollution. The use of dark-sky friendly lighting fixtures and techniques can improve the lit environment to be less harsh and more uniform, reduce many of the problems

Biofabrication of Endothelialized, Intrinsically Vascularized 3D‐Printed Recombinant Spider Silk Scaffolds

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study evaluates 3D‐printed recombinant spider silk hydrogel eADF4(C16)‐RGD in a rat AV loop model for tissue engineering. Constructs with T17b endothelial progenitor cells showed enhanced vascularization and biodegradation. Results highlight the importance of scaffold design and cellular integration in improving vascular density and overall ...

Light-at-night exposure affects brain development through pineal allopregnanolone-dependent mechanisms

eLife, 2019
The molecular mechanisms by which environmental light conditions affect cerebellar development are incompletely understood. We showed that circadian disruption by light-at-night induced Purkinje cell death through pineal allopregnanolone (ALLO) activity ...
