Human Fragmentation Effects Are Genetically Detectable After 6 Years in an Island-Endemic Plant. [PDF]
We provide direct evidence that anthropogenic infrastructures such as reservoirs and expressways have been capable of increasing genetic differentiation and, thus, modifying the phylogeographical pattern of Primulina heterotricha in just a six‐year period (two generations of the plant). ABSTRACT Anthropogenic disturbances have long been acknowledged to

A Pan-TE Map Reveals the Important Role of Transposable Elements in Gene Expression and Phenotypic Diversity in 2,311 Rapeseed Accessions. [PDF]
This study presents the first pan‐transposable element (TE) atlas in rapeseed, profiling over 8 million TEs across 2311 accessions. Integrative analyses reveal that TEs broadly shape gene expression through diverse regulatory mechanisms, with key insertions in BnaA03.FLC and BnaA09.CYP78A9 linked to flowering time and silique development.

Vaping causes an acute BMI-dependent change in pulmonary blood flow. [PDF]
The effect of vaping on the lungs is not yet well understood; previous studies have shown mixed results. We applied functional MRI methods to measure regional ventilation and perfusion in the lungs before and after vaping. Results showed a strong correlation between BMI and the change in perfusion after vaping. Measurements of airways resistance showed

Longitudinal patterns of brain aging and neurodegeneration among older adults with dual decline in memory and gait. [PDF]
Abstract INTRODUCTION Dual cognitive and mobility decline is more strongly associated with dementia risk than cognitive decline only. It remains unknown whether this syndrome is associated with brain atrophy patterns, white matter (WM) damage, or pathology. METHODS In the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging participants with and without dual decline,

A Water Stable U(IV) Complex Based on a Macrocyclic Ligand Displaying NIR Emission. [PDF]
A water‐stable U(IV) complex is obtained by coordination of U(IV) with a nonadentate macrocyclic ligand based on a triazacyclononane platform. The U(IV) cation is fully protected from coordination of water molecules, and upon excitation into the UV‐Visible region, the complex displays an unprecedented NIR emission from U(IV). Abstract Complexation of U(

PLASMA LEVELS OF ANGIOGENIC AND ANGIOSTATIC FACTORS AFTER PANRETINAL PHOTOCOAGULATION FOR PROLIFERATIVE DIABETIC RETINOPATHY [PDF]
Panretinal photocoagulation in diabetic retinopathy improves oxygen saturation in the retina which results in regression of neovascularisation. This study is aimed at evaluating the plasma levels of angiogenic and angiostatic factors after panretinal ...
