Developmental dynamics of ovine lung in health and cystic fibrosis at single-cell resolutionNARA Subscribed
The sheep lung has long been used to model aspects of the human lung, both its normal development and pathological changes that occur in ovine models of lung disease. The similarities between the two species provide an opportunity to investigate phases of lung development that are not accessible for investigation in humans, for example later in gestation. Here we use single cell (sc) RNA-seq to investigate the developmental dy...
An experimental approach to assess the combined effects of multiple stressors on a large vertebrate speciesNARA Subscribed
The design of experiments to investigate the combined effects of multiple stressors requires exposing target organisms to multiple combinations of stressor doses. Concurrent manipulation of stressors is often infeasible with wildlife, but long‐lasting health effects allow individual health to be used as an integrator of prior stressor exposure. The population of bottlenose dolphins in Barataria Bay, Louisiana, experienced long...
Global patterns and regional insights into kelp forest protection, restoration, and stewardshipNARA Subscribed
Kelp forests are among the most extensive and productive coastal ecosystems, yet they remain underrepresented in global conservation policy despite widespread declines driven by interacting global- (i.e., ocean warming, marine heatwaves) to local-scale stressors. At the same time, kelp conservation and restoration efforts are expanding rapidly across regions, but measures of success and syntheses tend to primarily focus on eco...
Marine megafauna species are affected by a wide range of anthropogenic threats. To evaluate the risk of such threats, species’ vulnerability to each threat must first be determined. We build on the existing threats classification scheme and ranking system of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species by assessing the vulnerability of 256 marine megafauna species to 23 at‐sea threat...
Topographic Setting Drives the Imprint of the Madden–Julian Oscillation ( MJO ) on Tree Growth in the Northern Sierra NevadaNARA Subscribed
Understanding how large‐scale tropical climate patterns, such as the Madden–Julian Oscillation (MJO), influence tree growth is crucial for improving regional climate projections and water resource management. We investigate whether tree growth from conifer forests in the northern Sierra Nevada, United States can serve as a proxy for MJO variability. Increment cores were collected from Pinus jeffreyi (site = JSJ; n = 21) and Ab...
The Holocene history of Australia's climate is surprisingly poorly understood. This is, in part, because of the relatively weak forcing of Holocene climate versus that of the late Pleistocene. However, it is commonly suggested that eastern Australia dried during the mid‐ to late‐Holocene and that this was in response to increased activity in the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO), in particular, the intensification of the El...
Psilocybin therapy for treatment resistant depression: prediction of clinical outcome by natural language processingNARA Subscribed
Rationale Therapeutic administration of psychedelics has shown significant potential in historical accounts and recent clinical trials in the treatment of depression and other mood disorders. A recent randomized double-blind phase-IIb study demonstrated the safety and efficacy of COMP360, COMPASS Pathways’ proprietary synthetic formulation of psilocybin, in participants with treatment-resistant depression. Objective While the...
