Pairwise interaction point processes for modelling bivariate spatial point patterns in the presence of interaction uncertainty [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Current ecological research seeks to understand the mechanisms that sustain biodiversity and allow a large number of species to coexist. Coexistence concerns inter-individual interactions. Consequently, there is an interest in identifying and quantifying

Autophagy and mitophagy in pancreatic β‐cell homeostasis and their involvement in diabetes pathophysiology

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review focuses on the role of autophagy and mitophagy in maintaining pancreatic β‐cell function and homeostasis. We discuss how genetic defects affecting these pathways contribute to the development of type 1, type 2, monogenic, and gestational diabetes. We further explore their potential as therapeutic targets. Created in BioRender.

Construction and optimization of regional ecological security patterns based on MSPA-MCR-GA Model: A case study of Dongting Lake Basin in China

open access: yesEcological Indicators
Ecological security pattern (ESP) represents a sound spatial arrangement of ecosystem occurring in landscape. The research on the optimization of ESP aims to improve and restore the ecosystem functions by rationally allocating and optimizing the ...

Image Pattern Recognition-Based Morphological Structure and Applications

open access: yes, 2008
This chapter describes a new pattern recognition method: pattern recognition-based morphological structure. First, smooth following and linearization are introduced based on difference chain codes. Second, morphological structural points are described in

Functional comparison of EncB and EncC cargo proteins in iron storage within the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Encapsulins are protein nanocompartments that play an important role in iron storage. In the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin system, two cargo proteins called EncB and EncC contribute to iron mineralization. Here, we show that EncB and EncC generate iron‐containing minerals with distinct chemical compositions, suggesting that the composition of stored ...

Impact of Internal and External Landscape Patterns on Urban Greenspace Cooling Effects: Analysis from Maximum and Accumulative Perspectives

open access: yesBuildings
Urban greenspace is an effective strategy to mitigate the urban heat island (UHI) effect. While its cooling effects are well-established, uncertainties remain regarding the combined impact of internal and external landscape patterns, particularly the ...

An Ecological Resilience Assessment of a Resource-Based City Based on Morphological Spatial Pattern Analysis

open access: yesSustainability
In the context of ecological civilization construction, resource-based cities (RBCs) are tasked with the dual responsibility of national energy supply and transformation amidst complex social contradictions. These cities face the resource curse dilemma, characterized by resource depletion, conflicts in spatial production, in living, and in ecological ...

Invisible but not inaccessible—Revealing transient oligomers formed by intrinsically disordered proteins with solution NMR and complementary methods

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Transient oligomers formed by intrinsically disordered proteins may be ‘invisible’ to direct detection yet remain accessible to solution NMR through equilibrium‐exchange measurements and pressure‐jump experiments. Complementary methods report on mass, stoichiometry, selected distance distributions, morphology, and internal packing.
