Collecting new targets in MODY [PDF]

open access: yesCell Metabolism, 2005
Transcriptional regulation is crucial in the function of the pancreatic β cell and diabetes, as evidenced by the human MODY families. Work from Fukui and colleagues (Fukui et al., 2005) and Akpinar and colleagues (Akpinar et al., 2005) in this issue of Cell Metabolism identifies a target of the MODY3 transcription factor HNF-1α that appears to function

Survive the economic downturn: Operating flexibility, productivity, and stock crash

open access: yesJournal of Operations Management, EarlyView.
Abstract Operating flexibility supports a firm's resilience strategy during challenging times by enabling them to promptly cut down operating costs associated with unproductive resources. We employ a real options model to formalize this insight. Our empirically grounding analytics motivate a firm‐level proxy for downscale operating flexibility (FLEX ...

Predicting pup‐rearing habitat for Mexican wolves

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We developed predictive models of pup‐rearing habitat (i.e., den and rendezvous sites) that could help guide future population monitoring efforts of Mexican wolves. Mexican wolves selected den sites at higher elevations in steeper and rougher terrain that was closer to permanent waterbodies but farther from rural roads, whereas selection of rendezvous ...

Mixed evidence for disturbance‐mediated apparent competition for declining caribou in western British Columbia, Canada

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Investigating the decline of a caribou population in central British Columbia, we found that 1) recent wildfires were a stronger draw for primary ungulate prey than cutblocks, 2) most predators were associated with primary prey but had mixed responses to disturbance, and 3) caribou used cutblocks, potentially increasing their risk.

Determination of Land Degradation in Romania at a Local Scale Using Advanced Analytical Techniques

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 36, Issue 5, Page 1614-1627, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Land degradation (LD) threatens the food security and general welfare of many people globally. Land Degradation Neutrality (LDN) is a pivotal goal within the global sustainability agenda, particularly under Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 15.3.1, which measures the proportion of land that is degraded over total land area.
