Evaluation of Discoidin domain receptor 1 (DDR1) in junctional epithelial permeability and wound healing

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Epithelium is the periodontal first line of defense against microbes. Discoidin domain receptor 1 (DDR1) is a collagen receptor expressed in epithelium. Ddr1 knockout (Ddr1−/−) mice develop periodontitis‐like defects, including junctional epithelium (JE) downgrowth, bacterial invasion, and alveolar bone loss.

The use of edible insects in human food

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract The world population is expected to reach approximately 10 billion people by 2050, which will significantly increase global food demand and may lead to agricultural shortages and a higher risk of food insecurity. In this context, this review discusses the potential of insects as alternative sources of animal protein, addressing their ...

Free rein: Are feral horses competing with native ungulates in British Columbia?

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We investigated little‐studied feral horses in west‐central British Columbia, Canada, as a potential competitor for native moose and mule deer. We did not find strong evidence that feral horses exclude moose or deer from habitat or resources at a large landscape scale or smaller spatiotemporal patch scale.

Population dynamics of Townsend's big‐eared bats: effect of age and drought on survival

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We estimated age‐specific yearly survival of female Townsend's big‐eared bats in Inyo and Mono Counties, California. We found that both juvenile and adult survival were negatively impacted by drought, and that detection probability was lower for hand‐recapture than for bats detected via pass‐through antenna arrays.
