Circulating histones as clinical biomarkers in critically ill conditions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Circulating histones are emerging as promising biomarkers in critical illness due to their diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic potential. Detection methods such as ELISA and mass spectrometry provide reliable approaches for quantifying histone levels in plasma samples.

Natural Selection as Coarsening [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Physics, 2017
Analogies between evolutionary dynamics and statistical mechanics, such as Fisher's second-law-like "fundamental theorem of natural selection" and Wright's "fitness landscapes", have had a deep and fruitful influence on the development of evolutionary theory. Here I discuss a new conceptual link between evolution and statistical physics.

The epithelial barrier theory proposes a comprehensive explanation for the origins of allergic and other chronic noncommunicable diseases

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Exposure to common noxious agents (1), including allergens, pollutants, and micro‐nanoplastics, can cause epithelial barrier damage (2) in our body's protective linings. This may trigger an immune response to our microbiome (3). The epithelial barrier theory explains how this process can lead to chronic noncommunicable diseases (4) affecting organs ...

Humans and Chimpanzees Display Opposite Patterns of Diversity in Arylamine N-Acetyltransferase Genes

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2019
Among the many genes involved in the metabolism of therapeutic drugs, human arylamine N-acetyltransferases (NATs) genes have been extensively studied, due to their medical importance both in pharmacogenetics and disease epidemiology.

Natural selection

open access: yes
The intricate relationship between plants and their environment has fascinated scientists and naturalists for centuries. As foundational components of ecosystems, plants play a crucial role in maintaining the balance of nature, influencing climate, supporting diverse life forms, and contributing to the Earth's biogeochemical cycles. Equally captivating

Natural Selection in the Great Apes

open access: yesMolecular biology and evolution, 2016
Natural selection is crucial for the adaptation of populations to their environments. Here, we present the first global study of natural selection in the Hominidae (humans and great apes) based on genome-wide information from population samples ...

Multiple aspects of the selfing syndrome of the morning glory Ipomoea lacunosa evolved in response to selection: A Qst‐Fst comparison

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
The frequent transition from outcrossing to selfing in flowering plants is often accompanied by changes in multiple aspects of floral morphology, termed the “selfing syndrome.” While the repeated evolution of these changes suggests a role for natural ...

Evolution of the selfing syndrome in Ipomoea

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2013
Plants that are highly selfing typically exhibit a suite of morphological traits termed a selfing syndrome, including reduced corollas and reproductive structures, loss of corolla pigmentation, little anther-stigma separation, and a lower pollen/ovule (P/

Using landscape genomics to delineate future adaptive potential for climate change in the Yosemite toad (Anaxyrus canorus)

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, 2023
An essential goal in conservation biology is delineating population units that maximize the probability of species persisting into the future and adapting to future environmental change.
