British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Background and Purpose Aldosterone plays a key role in blood pressure and volume regulation. Enhanced aldosterone secretion contributes to cardiovascular and renal diseases. Therefore, inhibitors of aldosterone receptors and synthase are essential drugs for the treatment of hypertension and heart failure.

When and why to give shorebirds a head start
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Headstarting is a translocation technique involving the hatching or rearing of wild eggs or young in captivity and the release of those individuals back to the wild at or before independence. It has been trialed as a conservation intervention for shorebirds over recent decades to improve the population trend of target populations by increasing

The collective application of shorebird tracking data to conservation
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Addressing urgent conservation issues, such as the drastic declines of North American migratory birds, requires creative, evidence‐based, efficient, and collaborative approaches. The abundance of over 50% of monitored North American shorebird populations has declined by over 50% since 1980. To address these declines, we developed a partnership

Habitat and spatial trends of U.K. wintering waterbird populations over 50 years
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract The United Kingdom is an important wintering ground for millions of waterbirds. Most U.K. wintering waterbird populations increased between 1970 and the mid‐1990s, but declined thereafter. We examined U.K. population indices in 46 wintering waterbird species in two 25‐year periods, 1970–1994 and 1995–2019, to identify which waterbird groups ...

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Caffeic acid is a central metabolite in the fungal bioluminescence pathway. We identified and characterized caffeylpyruvate hydrolase from Neonothopanus gardneri (ngarCPH) and demonstrate its ability to hydrolyze fungal oxyluciferin into caffeic and pyruvic acids, confirming a complete and self‐sustained fungal bioluminescence cycle.
