Moving to Venice and settling there: a synthesis on the biology of Sandwich Tern (Thalasseus sandvicensis) in the largest Mediterranean wetland during the 1995-2023 years

open access: yesRivista Italiana di Ornitologia - Research in Ornithology
In 1995, the first colony of Thalasseus sandvicensis settled in a saltmarsh islet in the Lagoon of Venice, NE Italy. The number of nesting pairs rose from 202 (1995) pairs to 3503 (2023), with the arrival of immigrants peaking in 2014 (+887 pairs) and ...

Survey of the Lynx lynx distribution in the French Alps: 2005–2009 update.

open access: yesActa Biologica Slovenica, 2012
As part of the survey of the pan-alpine population of Eurasian Lynx, the French national network of large carnivores experts collected N = 301 data, out of which 159 (n1 = 2 C1, n2 = 62 C2, n3 = 95 C3) were regarded robust enough from a technical point ...

Marked increase in the incidence rate of esophageal adenocarcinoma in a high-risk area for esophageal cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: Esophageal cancer (EC) is the eighth common cancer worldwide. Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and adenocarcinoma (EAD) are the most common histologic types of EC.

Spatial features of non-thermal SZ effect in galaxy clusters

open access: yes, 2002
We investigate the spatial behaviour of the total comptonization parameter $y_{tot}$ evaluated for a galaxy cluster containing two population of electrons: the thermal population, with energy around some KeV and whose trace is evident in the X-ray ...

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Imminent Risk of Extirpation for Two Bottlenose Dolphin Communities in the Gulf of Guayaquil, Ecuador

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
A long-term study of a common bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) population inhabiting the Gulf of Guayaquil, Ecuador (2°33′ S, 79°20′W), has been carried out for almost 30 years.

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Sequence determinants of RNA G‐quadruplex unfolding by Arg‐rich regions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We show that Arg‐rich peptides selectively unfold RNA G‐quadruplexes, but not RNA stem‐loops or DNA/RNA duplexes. This length‐dependent activity is inhibited by acidic residues and is conserved among SR and SR‐related proteins (SRSF1, SRSF3, SRSF9, U1‐70K, and U2AF1).

Recent studies on Indian primates show declining population trends, even in protected areas

open access: yesOryx
Population size and geographical range are the key quantitative criteria used by the IUCN to assess the conservation status of a species. However, such information is often incomplete and inconsistent, even for seemingly abundant species.

Quantifying the causes and consequences of variation in satellite‐derived population indices: a case study of emperor penguins

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, 2022
Very high‐resolution satellite (VHR) imagery is a promising tool for estimating the abundance of wildlife populations, especially in remote regions where traditional surveys are limited by logistical challenges. Emperor penguins Aptenodytes forsteri were
