Protective role of Galectin‐3 in prion disease through regulation of microglial PrPSc uptake

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
Galectin‐3 (Gal3) is induced in reactive microglia during prion disease and promotes microglial uptake of PrPSc. Gal3 deficiency reduces prion sequestration and accelerates disease progression, revealing a protective role for Gal3. Abstract Microglia constitute a major innate defense mechanism against prion infection; however, the molecular pathways ...

Deep Phenotyping in ReNU Syndrome Identifies a Recognizable Age‐Dependent Clinical Trajectory

open access: yesClinical Genetics, EarlyView.
Longitudinal evaluation of 11 individuals with ReNU syndrome revealed an age‐dependent multisystem trajectory. This longitudinal description may help clinicians anticipate changing needs in feeding, growth, neurological, visual, communication, behavioral, and orthopedic care. ABSTRACT Pathogenic variants in the noncoding gene RNU4‐2 cause ReNU syndrome,

Threat Integration Model for Sagebrush (TIMS): A framework for using spatial decision support tools for strategic management of invasive annual grasses and conifers in sagebrush ecosystems

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
The Threat Integration Model for Sagebrush (TIMS) combines multiple spatial decision support tools to provide a unified, actionable map of sagebrush ecosystem conditions across the western United States. TIMS improves upon existing tools by including multiple threats in the same map (invasive annual grass [IAG] and conifer encroachment), characterizing

Response of Vegetation NPP to Multiscale Meteorological Drought in Southwest China

open access: yesShuitu Baochi Xuebao
[Objective] This study was aimed to explore the response mechanism of vegetation to drought at different times scales and clarify the frequent occurrence of extreme drought events in southwest China on vegetation growth. [Methods] Based on vegetation net

Anthropogenic and natural factors are associated with bird dawn chorus onset in subtropical East Asia

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Anthropogenic factors such as artificial lighting at night (ALAN) and natural factors including temperature and moonlight can affect the dawn chorus pattern in birds. However, most studies are conducted in temperate regions. We investigated the effect of anthropogenic and natural factors on dawn chorus timing in eight species of bird across Hong Kong ...

Assessment of Thrombin Generation in Pediatric Patients on Extracorporeal Life Support: Impact of Bivalirudin and Other Anticoagulants

open access: yesInternational Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Bivalirudin is an alternative anticoagulant to heparin and is widely used in pediatric extracorporeal life support (ECLS). Its activity is monitored using activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) and/or more specific tests such as plasma‐diluted thrombin time (dTT).

Comparing global models of terrestrial net primary productivity (NPP): The importance of water availability to primary productivity

open access: yes, 1999
Given that neither absolute measures nor direct model validations of global terrestrial net primary productivity (NPP) are feasible, intercomparison of global NPP models provides an effective tool to check model consistency. For this study, we tested the
