Solamargine induces acute myeloid leukemia differentiation through TLR8 activation

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
SM, a steroidal alkaloid from Solanum nigrum L. has shown anticancer effect on various kinds of human cancer cells, yet its effect on leukemia cells remains unclear. This study examines antileukemic activities of SM in AML cells. Results indicate SM inhibits growth and promotes apoptosis of AML cells.

A Conservation Assessment and Systematic Review of the Endangered Spectacled Flying‐Fox 濒危眼镜狐蝠的保护评估与系统综述

open access: yesWildlife Letters, EarlyView.
Spectacled flying‐fox Pteropus conspicillatus populations have declined so seriously over two decades that they are now endangered. Inaction has allowed threats to increase. Extreme heat events are now a lethal reality, habitat loss continues almost unabated, and pressure to disperse roosts is ever‐present. Obtaining resources and taking action to help

Gradual pollen release in a buzz‐pollinated plant: Investigating pollen presentation theory under bee visitation

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The rate at which flowers dispense pollen across successive pollinator visits is a key functional trait influencing male reproductive success. Pollen presentation theory (PPT) predicts that when pollinators are abundant and actively groom their bodies to collect pollen,

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.

From the predator to the prey: a case study of the vulnerability of Harmonia axyridis to aggressive competitors

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
The level of aggressiveness of an individual is a factor that shapes intraguild predation (IGP) interactions. In Nabis americoferus, high aggressiveness leads to an increase in attack rate and IGP against Harmonia axyridis. Moreover, the absence of extraguild prey seems to exacerbate IGP. In docile N.

Spinifex, fire, and fate

open access: yesGeographical Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Bushfires occur regularly in inland Australia because of the flammability of spinifex (Triodia species). Spinifex and fire are tied together by infertility: the plant is of limited palatability to consumers and accumulates into fuel. Spinifex regrows with cumulative rainfall, and fires recur every couple of decades.
