Wild pigs (Sus scrofa) prefer inoculated peanuts over whole‐kernel corn in cafeteria‐style study

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
In this study, we explored bait preference of wild pigs (Sus scrofa), a highly invasive species where primary removal efforts include the use of bait and corral‐style trapping. In addition, we investigated preferences of a common nontarget to identify a bait that is preferred by wild pigs and not by white‐tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus).

Sugar Metabolisms Altered By Undissociated Forms of Organic Acids Based on the Emergence of [GAR+] Cells in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

open access: yesYeast, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The glucose repression system is a mechanism for effective energy acquisition by glucose assimilation in microorganisms. In yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is known as a prion‐like protein [GAR+], is involved in the bypass of glucose repression. It has been reported that the emergence of [GAR+] cells was promoted by lactate and acetate.

Predicting disease spread from host movement data: Chronic wasting disease in North America as a case study

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This paper estimates the rate of chronic wasting disease spread in multiple regions and compares these rates with model predictions based on deer movement data. Abstract Rare long‐distance movements can increase the spatial spread of invasive species and shifts in species ranges. For wildlife disease spread, however, seasonal migrations may only matter

Comments to the “Letter to the Editor” for the manuscript titled “Increased expression of inflammasome signaling genes and proteins in selective brain regions in the intermediate stage of Alzheimer's disease”

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
Beta amyloid diffuse plaques, neurofibrillary tangles and neuritic plaques, are increased in densities at the intermediate stage of Alzheimer's neuropathological change. These pathological changes releasing Pathogen‐Associated Molecular Patterns (PAMPs) and Damage‐Associated Molecular Patterns (DAMPs).

Interlaboratory performance testing on EPIC v2.0 CNS tumor profiling demonstrates high reproducibility of tumor classification but reveals the need for harmonized copy number variation reporting

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
Using the Infinium MethylationEPIC v2.0 array and Heidelberg Brain Tumor Classifier v12.8, 24 international laboratories achieved highly reproducible CNS tumor classification (97.9% correct; median β‐correlation r = 0.99), while copy number variation interpretation showed substantial interlaboratory variability, highlighting the need for harmonized CNV

α‐Synuclein strain homogeneity in multiple system atrophy subtypes

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
Two different subtypes of multiple system atrophy are recognized: MSA‐C and MSA‐P. In this manuscript, Lau et al. investigate whether MSA‐C and MSA‐P are caused by different strains of α‐synuclein aggregates. By performing conformational fingerprinting experiments as well as in vitro and in vivo seeding assays, their findings suggest that both MSA‐C ...

Proteostasis of organelles in aging and disease

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Cells rely on regulated proteostasis mechanisms to keep their internal compartments functioning properly. When these mechanisms fail, damaged proteins accumulate, disrupting organelles, such as the nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi, and lysosomes, as well as membraneless organelles, such as stress granules, processing bodies, the ...

Molecular dynamics simulations elucidate the misfolding mechanisms of secretion‐defective pancreatic lipase variants

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Misfolding mutations in pancreatic lipase have been identified as potential contributors of chronic pancreatitis, an inflammatory disease of the human pancreas. Here, we describe the effect of these misfolding mutations on pancreatic lipase structure using molecular dynamics simulations and structural modeling.

Combating ageing beyond the cell: Emerging roles of extracellular proteostasis

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Ageing challenges the body's ability to maintain a stable and functional proteome, leading to protein damage and aggregation both inside and outside cells. This review focuses on the less well understood mechanisms of extracellular protein quality control and how they become disrupted in ageing, particularly in neurodegenerative diseases.

Seasonal variation in preen gland secretions of Tristram's Storm Petrel (Hydrobates tristrami)

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Preen gland secretions are known to vary depending on sex, season and species and are thought to play essential roles in avian life history. However, their chemical composition and functions remain largely unclear in Procellariiform seabirds with well‐developed olfactory senses. Storm petrels, known for their distinctive body odour, may use preen gland
