Advances in GPCRs Associated With Wnt Signaling Within the Auditory System
Medicine Bulletin, EarlyView.ABSTRACT G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) that interact with the Wnt signaling pathway are pivotal for auditory system homeostasis, as they orchestrate inner ear development, hair cell (HC) regeneration, and hearing preservation. Frizzled (FZD) receptors, the core Wnt‐related GPCRs, bind Wnt ligands and co‐receptors (e.g., LRP5/6) to activate both ...

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.This review highlights how Phytophthora sojae utilizes unconventional lineage‐specific signaling networks, including unique G protein‐coupled receptor fusions, expanded kinases, and rapidly evolving effectors, to infect soybeans. Understanding these divergent molecular paradigms reveals critical vulnerabilities in this destructive pathogen, offering ...

Beyond natural variation: The era of rational design in plant immunity
New Plant Protection, EarlyView.Abstract The evolutionary arms race between crops and pathogens has reached a critical impasse: pathogen adaptation consistently outpaces the development of resistant varieties through conventional breeding. This growing imbalance highlights the need to move beyond the exclusive reliance on natural variation toward more predictive and design‐oriented ...

Brokering Localization: Country‐Based Pooled Funds in Humanitarian Assistance
Public Administration and Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article analyzes Country‐Based Pooled Funds (CBPFs) to identify types of brokerage models and their effects on localization. CBPFs are intermediaries in the aid chain connecting donors to implementers such as the United Nations, international non‐governmental organizations (INGOs) and national NGOs (NNGOs). This paper analyzes four of the

Adaptive Sliding‐Mode Control of a Perturbed Diffusion Process With Pointwise In‐Domain Actuation
International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A sliding mode–based adaptive control law is proposed for a class of diffusion processes featuring a spatially‐varying uncertain diffusivity and equipped with several point‐wise actuators located at the two boundaries of the spatial domain as well as in its interior.

Sliding Mode Control in Aerospace Applications: A Survey
International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sliding mode control (SMC) enjoys robustness to matched and unmatched (in the case of minimum phase input‐output dynamics) bounded perturbations, and finite time convergence. Second‐order and higher‐order sliding mode control systems (2‐SMC/HOSMC) retain all the advantages of sliding mode control, but in addition can be applied to systems of ...
