The Role of Satellite Telemetry Data in 21st Century Conservation of Polar Bears (Ursus maritimus)
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Satellite telemetry (ST) has played a critical role in the management and conservation of polar bears (Ursus maritimus) over the last 50 years. ST data provide biological information relevant to subpopulation delineation, movements, habitat use, maternal

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Efficacy of deterrents for mitigating human‐polar bear conflict in northern Alaska
Wildlife Society BulletinA warming climate is negatively affecting Arctic species that rely on sea ice to perform their life history activities. Changing sea ice dynamics have led polar bears in many subpopulations to spend more time on land, increasing the potential for human ...

The polar bear Ursus maritimus feeding in a seabird colony in Frans Josef Land
, 1993 During the second half of August 1992 polar bears were observed feeding intensively in the little auk Alle alle colony on Rubini Rock, Hooker Island, Frans Josef Land. They dug out nests eating eggs, chicks and adult birds. Their activity results in both

Loss of proton‐sensing TDAG8 increases tumor progression in mouse models of colon cancer
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Loss of the pH‐sensing receptor TDAG8 accelerates colorectal cancer progression in mice. Animals lacking TDAG8 expression had increased tumor growth, DNA damage, and recruitment of tumor‐associated immune cells, including macrophages, neutrophils, and monocytes.

The numbers of ringed seals (Phoca hispida) in Baffin Bay and associated waters
NAMMCO Scientific Publications, 1998 The size of the population of ringed seals (Phoca hispida) inhabiting Baffin Bay and associated waters was estimated by two methods. An approximate model of the energetics of the polar bear (Ursus maritimus) estimated an energetic need of about 16,000 MJ/

Trichinella sp. in polar bears from Svalbard, in relation to hide length and age
, 2010 Diaphragm and masseter muscles from 376 polar bears ((irsur maririmus), 252 ringed seals (Phocn hispida), 84 bearded seals (Erignarhus barbarus), and 77 arctic foxes (Alopex lagopus) from Svalbard were examined for Trichinelln.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Partial inhibition of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) can paradoxically promote tumor growth, rather than simply producing a weaker antitumor effect than that observed with strong FAK suppression. In breast cancer and melanoma models, targeting p110δ PI3K, particularly in macrophages, counteracted these tumor‐promoting effects, highlighting the importance ...
