Immunomodulatory Effects of Dietary Seaweeds in LPS Challenged Atlantic Salmon Salmo salar as Determined by Deep RNA Sequencing of the Head Kidney Transcriptome

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018
Seaweeds may represent immuno-stimulants that could be used as health-promoting fish feed components. This study was performed to gain insights into the immunomodulatory effects of dietary seaweeds in Atlantic salmon.

Twelve principles for successful governance of community‐based coastal marine restoration

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Global agreements, such as the Global Biodiversity Framework, call for urgent, large‐scale action to halt biodiversity loss through a whole‐of‐society approach. Community‐based restoration can play a crucial role in achieving this goal, yet there remains limited understanding of what makes these projects effective and sustainable.

Presenting the scientific discourse of biodiversity loss through drivers, solutions, and responsibilities

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity loss is considered a major global issue, but at the same time, scientists interpret it differently, identifying varied drivers, solutions, and responsibilities in their published works. These interpretations shape the scientific narratives these scientists use to discuss biodiversity loss, which, in turn, affects policy through ...

Glycated albumin: An old yet new biomarker in people with diabetes and the potential for novel applications

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glycated albumin (GA), the product of nonenzymatic glycation of serum albumin, reflects the mean glucose levels over the preceding approximately 2 weeks, bridging the gap between daily self‐monitoring of blood glucose and the roughly 3‐month window covered by glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) measurement.

Food selectivity and grazing responses of the Lawnmower Blenny (Salarias fasciatus) to nutrient enrichment and ammonia exposure

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Nutrient enrichment can alter the nutritional quality of the epilithic algal matrix (EAM) and modify the feeding environment of herbivorous and detritivorous reef fishes. However, wastewater inputs can also elevate ammonia concentrations, which may disrupt fish physiological processes, yet the effects of ammonia exposure on grazing activity ...

Association Among Eating Speed, Dietary Diversity, and Fat‐Free Mass Index in Adults

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
This study examined the associations among body composition indices, eating speed, and dietary diversity. Dietary diversity was positively associated with muscle mass in men and negatively associated with body fat mass index in women, while fast eating was significantly associated with fat‐free mass index.
