Spatial and temporal predictability drive foraging movements of coastal birds by Madeleine Foley, Kimberly A. Lato, Matthew Fuirst, Richard R. Veit, Robert M. Cerrato, Lesley H. Thorne

“…Herring gulls in urban environments foraged more on Fridays and weekends, possibly due to increased or altered human activities on these days. Conclusions Our results demonstrate the importance of spatial memory and spatiotemporal predictability of gull foraging habitats and highlight the extent to which gulls adjust their movements based on their foraging habitats.…”

Annual Variation of PM2.5 Chemical Composition in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam Including the COVID-19 Outbreak Period by Ngoc Tran, Yusuke Fujii, Vinh Xuan Le, Nguyen Doan Thien Chi, Hiroshi Okochi, To Thi Hien, Norimichi Takenaka

“…The OC/EC ratio (3.28 ± 0.61) and char-EC/soot-EC (4.88 ± 2.72) suggested that biomass burning, coal combustion, vehicle emissions, cooking activities are major PM2.5 sources in HCMC. Furthermore, the results of a concentration-weighted trajectory analysis suggested that the geological sources of PM2.5 were in the local areas of HCMC and the northeast provinces of Vietnam (where coal-fired power plants are located).…”

New View on the Genesis of the Bashuihe Pluton, Laoshan Granites, China: Indications from Fluid Inclusions and H–O Isotopes by Huimin Liu, Zhaojun Song, Hongbo Yan, Wenyu Wang, Xinru Wang, Yifang Sun, Haonan Li

“…The results of a whole rock, H–O isotopes, rare earth element, and high field strength element analysis on the Laoshan alkali granites suggest significant hydrothermal activity in the late stage of magmatism. Primary oval caves in the Bashuihe pluton most likely evolved in the following sequence: fluid was enriched in the late diagenetic stage, diagenetic minerals crystallised under low temperature and pressure conditions, the crystallisation rate accelerated, and the magma condensed rapidly. …”

Generation and characterization of chicken monocyte-derived dendritic cells by Elie Ngantcha Tatchou, Elie Ngantcha Tatchou, Romane Milcamps, Romane Milcamps, Guillaume Oldenhove, Bénédicte Lambrecht, Fiona Ingrao

“…This maturation reduced endocytic capacity but enhanced the allogenic stimulatory activity of the chicken MoDCs. Upon NDV stimulation for 6 h, MoDCs upregulated antiviral pathways, including retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I)-like receptors (RLRs), melanoma differentiation-associated protein 5 (MDA5) and laboratory of genetics and physiology 2 (LGP2), alongside increased production of type I interferons (IFNs), and the pro-inflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), IL-1β, and IL-6. …”

Hippocampal dendritic spines store-operated calcium entry and endoplasmic reticulum content is dynamic microtubule dependent by Anastasiya Rakovskaya, Ekaterina Volkova, Ilya Bezprozvanny, Ekaterina Pchitskaya

“…Abstract One of the mechanisms of calcium signalling in neurons is store-operated calcium entry (SOCE), which is activated when the calcium concentration in the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (ER) decreases and its protein-calcium sensor STIM (stromal interacting molecule) relocate to the endoplasmic reticulum and plasma membrane junctions, forms clusters and induces calcium entry. …”
