Day/night variations of myeloid and lymphoid cell subsets in the murine inguinal lymph node

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The circadian system is involved in the temporal regulation of the immune system. Our study reveals that two innate immune populations, NKT cells and neutrophils, predominate at the beginning of the day in healthy mice, highlighting how the time of day influences immune responses.

On the Beach? Sustainability, Optimal Pollution, and Optimal Population [PDF]

open access: yes
Is it possible that the utility maximizing behavior leads the mankind to destruction? We develop a model with optimal pollution and optimal population in which population growth rate decreases along with pollution.

What's driving sustainable energy consumption? : a survey of the empirical literature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The focus of the paper is on the individual decision of energy consumers, and it's relation to sustainable consumption. Consumer behavior is based on individual decisions, but it depends largely on supply-side measures and an appropriate infrastructure ...

ATG4B is required for mTORC1‐mediated anabolic activity and is associated with clinical outcomes in non‐small cell lung cancer

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The relationship between anabolic and catabolic processes governing lung cancer cell growth is nuanced. We show that ATG4B, an autophagy regulator, is elevated in lung cancer and that high ATG4B is associated with worse patient outcomes. Targeting ATG4B in cells reduces growth, protein synthesis, and mTORC1 activity, demonstrating a new relationship ...

Driving sustainable change: A systematic map of behaviorally informed interventions to promote sustainable mobility behavior

open access: yesPNAS Nexus
Abstract Recent reports have highlighted the importance of changing human behavior if climate change is to be mitigated. In this respect, behaviorally informed interventions are considered promising tools. In particular, these interventions could be applied in the transport sector, where the mitigation potential is high.

Dietary nitrate and nitrite protect against doxorubicin‐induced cardiac fibrosis and oxidative protein damage in tumor‐bearing mice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Chemotherapies such as doxorubicin can have toxic effects on healthy cardiovascular/heart tissue. Following up on a doxorubicin toxicity study in mice without tumors where nitrate water was cardioprotective (lessened toxicity), this study with tumor‐bearing mice undergoing doxorubicin treatment showed no negative effect of nitrate and nitrite on drug ...
