The EU Water Framework Directive twenty years on: Introducing the Special Issue

open access: yesWater Alternatives, 2020
Twenty years ago, the European Union launched one of its flagship environmental regulations, the Water Framework Directive (WFD). Since its inception in 2000, the WFD has been a guiding light for water professionals within and beyond the EU; it has ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

The Environmental Liability Directive, the Water Framework Directive and the Definition of ‘Water Damage’

open access: yesEnvironmental Law Review, 2018
The Environmental Liability Directive (ELD) focuses on remediating environmental damage. To assess environmental damage it uses existing assessment systems, and the constructs that are at the centre of these systems. One of these is ‘ecological status’ in the context of the Water Framework Directive (WFD). The ELD refers to the WFD with respect to what

Dimethyl fumarate combined with cisplatin at subcytotoxic doses sensitizes cervical cancer toward ferroptosis and apoptosis through GSH restriction and p53 (re)activation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) reduces growth of HPV‐positive cervical cancer spheroids and induces ferroptosis in cervical cancer cells via blocking SLC7A11/Glutathione (GSH) axis. Combination of subcytotoxic doses of DMF and cisplatin (CDDP) further suppresses spheroid growth and drives cell death in 2D culture models.

A review: Macrophytes in the assessment of Spanish lakes ecological status under the Water Framework Directive (WFD) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Basándose en que los procesos de biomonitorización aportan información muy valiosa sobre los impactos en organismos y consecuentemente en el estado ecológico de los ecosistemas, la Directiva Marco del Agua (WFD; Unión Europea, 2000) incorpora el uso de ...

EDNRB‐dependent endothelin signaling reduces proliferation and promotes proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition in gliomas

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Glioma cells mainly express the endothelin receptor EDNRB, while EDNRA is restricted to a perivascular tumor subpopulation. Endothelin signaling reduces glioma cell proliferation while promoting migration and a proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition associated with poor prognosis. This pathway activates Ca2+, K+, ERK, and STAT3 signalings and is regulated

Marine macrophytes and the Water Framework Directive: preliminary studies in southern Spain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The Water Framework Directive (WFD) includes angiosperms and macroalgae as biological quality elements (BQE) for coastal and transitional waters. In southern Spain (Andalusia), studies to implement the WFD using angiosperms (seagrasses) started in June ...
