Climate‐induced shifts in long‐term tropical tree reproductive phenology: Insights from species dependent on and independent of biotic pollination

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The dependence on biotic pollination may constrain plant phenological responses because flowering time ultimately defines reproductive success. We proposed a local‐scale study combining long‐term phenology and experimental data to evaluate how a key functional trait—the

Advanced circular statistics in biology: Multiple factors, interactions and repeated measures

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Circular data is common across biology and the wider sciences, but presents unique analytical challenges due to their wrapped structure, where endpoints coincide (e.g. 360° = 0°). This requires the use of specific statistical methods. Traditional tests like the Rayleigh and Watson U2 tests remain widely used, but lack flexibility in handling ...

Restoring failed inhibition in the substantia nigra pars reticulata suppresses absence seizures in rats

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective For over four decades, the substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr) has been recognized as a critical structure in the modulation of seizure activity. Pharmacological and optogenetic inhibition of the SNr produces robust seizure suppression in a range of seizure models.

Extracellular vesicles released from melanoma cells constitutively expressing MHC class II promote immune evasion and cancer progression

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Here, we report the role of extracellular vesicles (EVs) released from melanoma cells constitutively expressing MHC class II in the regulation of immune cell functions and melanoma metastasis. In particular, we observed an increased localization of HLA‐DRα, CAM receptors, PD‐L1, and STAT3 signaling proteins in the EVs.
