Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty

Insect 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.

Effect of Social Rank on Gut Microbes and Their Metabolites of Greater Long‐Tailed Hamsters (Tscherskia triton)

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Social rank in greater long‐tailed hamsters (Tscherskia triton) shapes gut microbiota composition and metabolite profiles. Dominant males exhibit a “high‐vigilance, metabolically activated” phenotype, with elevated aggression and specific gut microbiota enriched in energy‐harvesting taxa and fecal queuine.

Integrated Engineering of CAR‐T Cells for Solid Tumours

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Solid tumours pose multifactorial barriers including antigen heterogeneity, immunosuppressive microenvironment, and poor T‐cell trafficking, limiting CAR‐T efficacy compared to hematologic malignancies. Integrated engineering strategies are essential, combining logic‐gated receptors for precision, metabolic‐epigenetic reprogramming for resilience, and ...

General equilibrium effects of technical non‐tariff measures: evidence from bilateral trade cost estimates

Economica, EarlyView.
Abstract We estimate the trade and income effects of regulatory developments concerning standard‐like non‐tariff measures (NTMs) over 2012–2017 combining structural gravity estimates and general equilibrium projections. The trade cost effects of regulatory changes vary at the country‐pair level and across sectors.

Spatial productivity disparities in Great Britain

Economica, EarlyView.
We study productivity disparities across metropolitan and non‐metropolitan areas in Great Britain. Spatial disparities in productivity are large and persistent. Using a development accounting framework, we show that differences in area size and in the spatial distribution of human and business capital are key explanatory factors.

Digital platform strategies from an incumbent perspective: An exploration of contextual factors and connectors

European Management Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multi‐sided platform (MSP) models have become more relevant for incumbent companies, requiring them to develop MSP engagement strategies. This study sheds light on the complex process incumbents undergo in developing platform strategies. Adopting an inductive research design, we conducted interviews with 37 decision‐makers across 35 incumbent ...
