Effects of the Dietary Supplement 5α‐Hydroxy‐Laxogenin in the Orchiectomized Rat Model

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
The dietary supplement ingredient 5α‐hydroxy‐laxogenin was investigated in the castrated male rat for potential androgenic and anabolic effects. Moreover, androgen receptor binding of 5α‐hydroxy‐laxogenin was modelled by in silico docking. While molecular modelling supports androgen receptor binding, we observed neither androgenic nor anabolic effects ...

Sports Supplement Analysis Survey for the Prevalence of WADA Prohibited Substances in the Australian Online Marketplace

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
A survey of 200 sports supplements purchased online in Australia and analysed for WADA Prohibited Substances. Athlete education regarding the use of sports supplements remains a high priority as 35% of the products contained WADA Prohibited Substances. ABSTRACT Sports supplements are used extensively by people involved in competitive sports. However, a

Breeding and selection of taro (Colocasia esculenta) for improved disease‐resistance in Hawaiʻi

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 123-145, January 2023., 2023
Taro is a root crop with wide geographic range and high cultural significance to Indigenous peoples of Hawaiʻi and the Pacific. Taro Leaf Blight (TLB) is a worldwide disease of taro, and Hawaiian taro varieties exhibited little resistance to it. To improve TLB‐resistance, conventional breeding was conducted by hand‐pollination.

Intermediate soil acidification induces highest nitrous oxide emissions

Nature Communications
Global potent greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from soil are accelerating, with increases in the proportion of reactive nitrogen emitted as N2O, i.e., N2O emission factor (EF). Yet, the primary controls and underlying mechanisms of EFs remain

Improved Chemical Synthesis of Avenanthramides Family and its Analogs by Mixed Anhydride Method

European Journal of Organic Chemistry, Accepted Article.
Amides derived from common hydroxycinnamic acids — including 4‐hydroxycinnamic acid, 3‐methoxy‐4‐hydroxycinnamic acid, 3,4‐dihydroxycinnamic acid, 3,4‐dimethoxycinnamic acid, and 3,4,5‐trimethoxycinnamic acid — along with various free aminobenzoic acids, such as 5‐hydroxy‐2‐aminobenzoic acid, a key component of the avenanthramide family, have been ...

VegeDiff: Latent Diffusion Model for Geospatial Vegetation Forecasting [PDF]

arXiv
In the context of global climate change and frequent extreme weather events, forecasting future geospatial vegetation states under these conditions is of significant importance. The vegetation change process is influenced by the complex interplay between dynamic meteorological variables and static environmental variables, leading to high levels of ...

In vitro co-culture of Fasciola hepatica newly excysted juveniles (NEJs) with 3D HepG2 spheroids permits novel investigation of host–parasite interactions

Virulence
Fasciola hepatica, or liver fluke, causes fasciolosis in humans and livestock. Following ingestion of vegetation contaminated with encysted parasites, metacercariae, newly excysted juveniles (NEJ) excyst in the small intestine and cross the intestinal ...

Gut‐microbiota‐brain Axis and post‐traumatic epilepsy

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract There has been growing evidence that perturbations in gut‐microbiota‐brain axis (GMBA) are involved in mechanisms of chronic sequelae of traumatic brain injury (TBI). This review discusses the connection between GMBA and post‐traumatic epilepsy (PTE), the latter being a common outcome of TBI.

Transformation of Barchans into parabolic dunes under the influence of vegetation [PDF]

arXiv, 2005
Barchan dunes were found to transform into parabolic dunes and vice versa when the amount of vegetation on and around them changes. This work presents the first numerical simulation of this effect. We propose a continuum model for the density of vegetation. An established sand transport model is used for simulating the evolution of the dunes.
