Consensus Formation and Change are Enhanced by Neutrality

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Neutral agents are shown to enhance both the formation and overturning of consensus in collective decision‐making. A general mathematical model and experiments with locusts and humans reveal that neutrality enables robust consensus via simple interactions and accelerates consensus change by reducing effective population size.

Assessment of variability in proximate/anti-nutritive composition of cocoyam within Nigeria and Uganda

Journal of Applied Sciences and Environmental Management, 2018
The availability of cheaper food energy sources which compares favourably with other high priced cereals is of importance and should be encouraged. This study investigated the proximate/anti-nutritive contents of cocoyam collected from Southern Nigeria ...

Proximate and elemental composition of white grubs

, 2011
This study determined the proximate and mineral element composition of whole white grubs using standard methods of analysis. Proximate analysis showed on percentage dry matter basis: 65.86 ± 1.23% (protein, lipids, carbohydrates and ash) and (moisture ...

Enhanced Glycolysis‐Driven Histone H3K18 Lactylation Regulates Epileptogenesis by Modulating the E3 Ubiquitin Ligase COP1

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Neuronal PKM2‐driven glycolysis generates excess lactate that triggers histone H3K18 lactylation (H3K18la), establishing a pathogenic metabolic‐epigenetic axis in epilepsy. Elevated H3K18la enriches the Cop1 promoter, transcriptionally upregulating the E3 ubiquitin ligase COP1, which subsequently drives proteasomal degradation of GABAARβ2 and impairs ...

Nutritional and phytochemicals analysis of high‐altitude common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) cultivars of Nepal

eFood
The common bean, Phaseolus vulgaris L., is an important legume grown in all parts of Nepal to supply dietary protein for humans and livestock. They are rich in a variety of bioactive compounds and thus possess health‐promoting effects in the prevention ...

Adult Sex Ratio as a Demographic Feedback Linking Mating Systems, Parental Care, and Evolution

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Breeding systems are some of the most diverse social behavior, and our team is investigation the evolutionary causes of this diversity. This review summarises our research carried out at the University of Bath. We argue that demographic components of wild populations, especially the adult sex ratio, plays a key role driving breeding system variation ...

Targeting Supramolecular Active Complexes of Nav1.7/Nav1.8 to Relieve Chronic Neuropathic Pain

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In mice and patients with severe chronic neuropathic pain (NP), Nav1.7, Nav1.8, TrkB, and five cytoskeletal proteins form supramolecular active complexes (SMACs) with polygonal lattice structures as noxious signal amplifiers in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons.

Proximate Composition of Rice Grains Grown in Brazil Assessed Using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy: A Strategy for Selecting Superior Genotypes

AgriEngineering
A rice grain’s proximate composition determines its nutritional potential. Macronutrient quantification is essential to identify superior genotypes and direct breeding efforts to reach more people who are vulnerable.
