The choline‐binding protein A (CbpA) was shown to mediate adhesion of probiotic Ligilactobacillus salivarius strains to human intestinal epithelial cells (IECs). A knockout mutant lacking the CbpA protein derived from the immunomodulatory porcine strain L. salivarius FFIG58 was obtained. The CbpA is a key surface protein of L.

Global variation in honey bee (Apis mellifera) mating flight times
ABSTRACT During the mating season, male (drone) honey bees (Apis mellifera L.) make daily flights to drone congregation areas (DCAs) for the purpose of mating with a virgin queen. The timing of these flights (drone flight period) varies between geographic regions. However, the spatial scale over which variation occurs and the mechanisms contributing to

Angiotensin-(1-7) increases osmotic water permeability in isolated toad skin [PDF]
Angiotensin-(1-7) (Ang-(1-7)) increased osmotic water permeability in the isolated toad skin, a tissue with functional properties similar to those of the distal mammalian nephron. Concentrations of 0.1 to 10 μM were effective, with a peak at 20 min. This

ABSTRACT Biological invasions are one of the major drivers of biodiversity decline and have been shown to have far‐reaching consequences for society and the economy. Preventing the introduction and spread of alien species represents the most effective solution to reducing their impacts on nature and human well‐being.

Abstract The evolution of organisms can be studied through the lens of developmental systems, as the timing of development of morphological features is an important aspect to consider when studying a phenotype. Such data can be challenging to obtain in fossil amniotes owing to the scarcity of their fossil record. However, the numerous remains of Rancho

Pathways of megaherbivore rewilding transitions: typologies from an Andean gradient
In most of the planet, large herbivore communities have been replaced by livestock, but this process is reversing in many places. Here, we outline and review the pathways of “megaherbivore rewilding transitions” in three social-ecological-systems of ...
