Neutrophil stunning by metoprolol reduces infarct size
Nature Communications, 2017 The β1-adrenergic-receptor (ADRB1) antagonist metoprolol reduces infarct size in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients. The prevailing view has been that metoprolol acts mainly on cardiomyocytes.

Warming seas increase cold-stunning events for Kemp’s ridley sea turtles in the northwest Atlantic
PLoS ONE, 2019 Since the 1970s, the magnitude of turtle cold-stun strandings have increased dramatically within the northwestern Atlantic. Here, we examine oceanic, atmospheric, and biological factors that may affect the increasing trend of cold-stunned Kemp’s ridleys ...
