Modelling Conformational Flexibility in a Spectrally Addressable Molecular Multi‐Qubit Model System

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 134, Issue 45, November 7, 2022., 2022
Systems with weak dipolar interactions have the potential to be used for molecular quantum computing. Orientation selective pulsed EPR was used to model the conformational flexibility of a molecular multi‐qubit model system. Spectrally addressable centres allowed for the individual manipulation of each spin qubit, while differing relaxation dynamics ...

The role of microbiota and its modulation in colonic diverticular disease

open access: yesNeurogastroenterology &Motility, Volume 35, Issue 12, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Diverticular disease (DD) is a common condition in Western countries. The role of microbiota in the pathogenesis of DD and its related symptoms has been frequently postulated since most complications of this disease are bacteria‐driven and most therapies rely on microbiota modulation.

Phenotypic correlates of genetic divergence suggest at least three species in the complex of Dianthus virgineus (Caryophyllaceae)

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 72, Issue 5, Page 1019-1033, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Dianthus virgineus encompasses a very complex taxonomic group (traditionally called D. sylvestris group) including an array of units of doubtful taxonomic rank and value. Recent work identified three genetic lineages within this complex that showed strong genetic isolation, and clear geographical boundaries (i.e., “Alpine”, “Balkan”, and ...

Describing posterior distributions of variance components: Problems and the use of null distributions to aid interpretation

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 10, Page 2557-2574, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Assessing the biological relevance of variance components estimated using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC)‐based mixed‐effects models is not straightforward. Variance estimates are constrained to be greater than zero and their posterior distributions are often asymmetric.

The core genome evolution of Lactobacillus crispatus as a driving force for niche competition in the human vaginal tract

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 16, Issue 9, Page 1774-1789, September 2023., 2023
Within the lower female reproductive tract, Lactobacillus crispatus emerged for its protective and health‐promoting activities. The data presented here clearly pointed out the presence of intra‐species micro‐diversities that could have evolutionary significance contributing to phenotypical diversification by affecting protein domains.

Meta‐analysis: Post‐COVID‐19 functional dyspepsia and irritable bowel syndrome

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 58, Issue 1, Page 6-15, July 2023., 2023
Pooled incidence of post‐COVID‐19 functional dyspepsia and irritable bowel syndrome. Summary Introduction The burden of post‐COVID‐19 functional dyspepsia (FD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) remains unclear. The aim of this meta‐analysis was to estimate the rate of post‐COVID‐19 FD and IBS.

Combined targeting of fatty acid amide hydrolase and melatonin receptors promotes neuroprotection and stimulates inflammation resolution in rats

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 180, Issue 10, Page 1316-1338, May 2023., 2023
Background and Purpose Devising novel strategies to therapeutically favour inflammation resolution and provide neuroprotection is an unmet clinical need. Enhancing endocannabinoid tone by inhibiting the catabolic enzyme fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH), or stimulating melatonin receptors has therapeutic potential to treat neuropathological states in ...

Unravelling the historical biogeography of the European rabbit subspecies in the Iberian Peninsula

open access: yesMammal Review, Volume 53, Issue 1, Page 1-14, January 2023., 2023
We used biogeographical spatial models to understand the biogeography of the two subspecies of European rabbit that are found in the Iberian Peninsula. After the last glaciation, each subspecies expanded from its own isolated core, as suggested by the two maps.

Designation of optimal reference strains representing the infant gut bifidobacterial species through a comprehensive multi‐omics approach

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 24, Issue 12, Page 5825-5839, December 2022., 2022
Abstract The genomic era has resulted in the generation of a massive amount of genetic data concerning the genomic diversity of bacterial taxa. As a result, the microbiological community is increasingly looking for ways to define reference bacterial strains to perform experiments that are representative of the entire bacterial species.

Bayesian models for spatially explicit interactions between neighbouring plants

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 12, Page 2788-2798, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Interactions between neighbouring plants drive population and community dynamics in terrestrial ecosystems. Understanding these interactions is critical for both fundamental and applied ecology. Spatial approaches to model neighbour interactions are necessary, as interaction strength depends on the distance between neighbouring plants.
