Heat-labile toxin (LT) from enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is an important pathogenic protein. Anti-LT antibodies (Abs) induced by vaccination can neutralize the toxin and potentially prevent diarrheal secretion from ~ 60% of ETEC strains expressing LT. However, only superficial investigation of the anti-toxin response is usually conducted in clinical trials. Here, we utilized human serum samples from two clinical tri...
Thierry B.R. Chopin (1959–2024) – Innovator of Modern IMTANARA Subscribed
Climate change will impact coastal ecosystems, threatening subsistence fisheries including those in mangrove forests. Despite their global contributions and roles in nutrition and cultural identity, mangrove subsistence fisheries are poorly studied. Here, we offer a foundation for improving the management of mangrove subsistence fisheries to deal with the impending effects of climate change. This multidisciplinary review—drawi...
CamTrapAsia : A dataset of tropical forest vertebrate communities from 239 camera trapping studiesNARA Subscribed
Information on tropical Asian vertebrates has traditionally been sparse, particularly when it comes to cryptic species inhabiting the dense forests of the region. Vertebrate populations are declining globally due to land‐use change and hunting, the latter frequently referred as “defaunation.” This is especially true in tropical Asia where there is extensive land‐use change and high human densities. Robust monitoring requires t...
Structural and functional insights into iron acquisition from lactoferrin and transferrin in Gram-negative bacterial pathogensNARA Subscribed
Iron is an essential element for various lifeforms but is largely insoluble due to the oxygenation of Earth’s atmosphere and oceans during the Proterozoic era. Metazoans evolved iron transport glycoproteins, like transferrin (Tf) and lactoferrin (Lf), to keep iron in a non-toxic, usable form, while maintaining a low free iron concentration in the body that is unable to sustain bacterial growth. To survive on the mucosal surfac...
Claims surrounding exceptional longevity are sometimes disputed or dismissed for lack of credible evidence. Here, we present three DNA methylation-based age estimators (epigenetic clocks) for verifying age claims of centenarians. The three centenarian clocks were developed based on n = 7039 blood and saliva samples from individuals older than 40, including n = 184 samples from centenarians, 122 samples from semi-supercentenari...
Lessons From the Western Atlantic Lionfish Invasion to Inform Management in the MediterraneanOA Marine
Major invasions of Indo-Pacific lionfish ( Pterois volitans and P. miles ) are underway in the Western Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. While the establishment of lionfish in the Western Atlantic is perhaps the most well-studied marine fish invasion to date, the rapidly expanding invasion in the Mediterranean is more recent and has received less attention. Here we review and synthesize successes and failures from two...
Neotropical Anacardiaceae (cashew family)NARA Subscribed
Anacardiaceae is an ecologically and economically important plant family of about 200 species in 32 genera in the Neotropics. The family is particularly diverse in leaf architecture and fruit morphology, making it a model family to study the evolution of structural diversity as it correlates with lineage diversification. This fruit diversity is the primary reason 11 of the Neotropical genera are monotypic and that so many gene...
