The interplay of trophic interactions and game dynamics gives rise to life-history trade-offs, consistent personalities, and predator–prey and aggression power laws by Mohammad Salahshour

“…Here, we introduce an eco-evolutionary model of trophic interactions between predators and prey and show that the flow of resources in the ecosystem results in the scale-invariant spatial and temporal structure of ecosystems. In contrast to conventional approaches that rely on fitness-based selection, evolution in our eco-evolutionary framework is a direct consequence of ecological interactions. …”

Cancer stem cell populations are resistant to 5-aminolevulinic acid-photodynamic therapy (5-ALA-PDT) by Chantel P. J. Rice, Vipin Shankar Chelakkot, Noah T. Conohan, Kensuke Hirasawa

“…Activated PS leads to the generation of singlet oxygen and other reactive oxygen species (ROS), promoting cancer cell death. 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) is a naturally occurring PS precursor, which is metabolically converted to the PS, protoporphyrin IX (PPIX). Although 5-ALA-PDT is effective at killing cancer cells, in prior studies conducted by our group we normally observed in in vitro experiments that approximately 5–10% of cells survive 5-ALA-PDT, which served as an impetus for further investigation. …”
