The immunogenic potential of AZD1402 (Elarekibep) T-cell epitopes in healthy volunteers and drug-exposed clinical trial participantsNARA Subscribed
AZD1402 (Elarekibep) is a novel anticalin with engineered IL-4Rα antagonist binding properties that was under development for inhaled treatment of asthma. Structural similarity to tear-lipocalin is thought to limit immunogenicity risk; however, a range of treatment-emergent hypersensitivity-like adverse events were observed in a clinical study. This study aimed to (i) explore the activation of drug-exposed human T-cells with A...
Gelatinous zooplankton are increasingly recognized as key components of pelagic ecosystems, and there have been many recent insights into their ecology and roles in food webs. To examine the trophic ecology of siphonophores (Cnidaria, Hydrozoa), we used bulk (carbon and nitrogen) and compound‐specific (nitrogen) isotope analysis of individual amino acids (CSIA‐AA). We collected samples of 15 siphonophore genera using blue‐wate...
Water in the city: visitation of animal wildlife to garden water sources and urban lakesNARA Subscribed
Providing garden water sources (e.g., ponds, bird baths) has become a popular and strongly promoted form of wildlife-friendly gardening, yet evidence of their use by animals is scarce and limited to a few taxa and water source types. We examined the prevalence, variety and potential value to animal wildlife of supplementary water provided within gardens of Hertfordshire, United Kingdom, using an online questionnaire and field...
Prolonging survival in good health is a fundamental societal goal. However, the leading determinants of disability-free survival in healthy older people have not been well established. Data from ASPREE, a bi-national placebo-controlled trial of aspirin with 4.7 years median follow-up, was analysed. At enrolment, participants were healthy and without prior cardiovascular events, dementia or persistent physical disability. Disab...
Biogeography of macrophyte productivity: Effects of oceanic and climatic regimes across spatiotemporal scalesNARA Subscribed
Spatiotemporal variability in primary producer growth rates is a fundamental aspect of community structure. Understanding drivers of these patterns and their response to climate variability and change are ongoing challenges. Nutrient and light limitations often are invoked as proximate drivers of these patterns, but many other environmental and biological factors vary across spatial and temporal scales. In temperate rocky inte...
This investigation sought to determine whether post-exercise cold water immersion and low glycogen availability, separately and in combination, would preferentially activate either the Exon 1a or Exon 1b Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha (PGC-1α) promoter. Through a reanalysis of sample design, we identified that the systemic cold-induced augmentation of total PGC-1α gene expression observed...
Predicting the likely response of data‐poor ecosystems to climate change using space‐for‐time substitution across domainsNARA Subscribed
Predicting ecological response to climate change is often limited by a lack of relevant local data from which directly applicable mechanistic models can be developed. This limits predictions to qualitative assessments or simplistic rules of thumb in data‐poor regions, making management of the relevant systems difficult. We demonstrate a method for developing quantitative predictions of ecological response in data‐poor ecosyste...
