Multi‐Year Statistics of LEO Energetic Electrons as Observed by the Korean NextSat‐1 by Jaeheung Park, Kyoung Wook Min, Hoonkyu Seo, Eo‐Jin Kim, Kwangsun Ryu, Jongdae Sohn, Jongho Seon, Ji‐Hyeon Yoo, Seunguk Lee, Brian Kress, Junchan Lee, Changho Woo, Dae‐Young Lee

“…Latitudinal profiles of outer‐belt electron flux are smoother equatorward of the geosynchronous footprint latitudes (|MLAT| ∼ 66°) than poleward. The NextSat‐1 electron flux is positively correlated to geosynchronous observations, with the coefficient generally higher for higher electron energies. …”

Mapping Biodiversity Coast‐to‐Coast‐to‐Coast Across Canada's Three Oceans Using eDNA Metabarcoding by Loïc Jacquemot, Brian P. V. Hunt, Shaorong Li, Angela D. Schulze, Christoph M. Deeg, Ben J. G. Sutherland, Amy Tabata, Connie Lovejoy, Kristina M. Miller

“…However, the detection of Pacific salmon eDNA in the Canadian Arctic suggests that these species may be extending their Pacific distribution range poleward. By comparing the distribution of eDNA with species occurrence recorded in the Ocean Biodiversity Information System (OBIS) for Canada and Alaska coastal waters, we identified 324 “unexpected” species. …”

Intensified monsoonal rainstorm events over westerly-dominated Asian interior during the warm mid-Holocene by Peixian Shu, Weijian Zhou, Aaron E. Putnam, Baosheng Li, Shugang Kang, Yingying Sha, Zhengguo Shi, Guodong Ming, Hong Wang, Youbin Sun, David K. Wright, Weiguo Liu, Xiaodong Liu, Peng Cheng, Yougui Song, Dongfeng Niu, John R. Dodson, Hua Du, Jiaju Zhao, Zeke Zhang, Yahui Qiu, Zhisheng An

“…Our results suggest that a drier mid-Holocene in the southern Tarim Basin was associated with a poleward displacement of the westerly jet due to relatively warm boreal summer temperatures in the mid-latitudes. …”

Polar mesospheric ozone loss initiates downward coupling of solar signal in the Northern Hemisphere by Annika Seppälä, Niilo Kalakoski, Pekka T. Verronen, Daniel R. Marsh, Alexey Yu. Karpechko, Monika E. Szelag

“…Here we show that initial reduction of polar mesospheric ozone and the resulting change in atmospheric heating rapidly couples to dynamics, transferring the signal downwards, shifting the tropospheric jet polewards. This pathway is not constrained to the polar vortex. …”

Interleukin-6 and interleukin-6 receptor secretion by chronic lymphatic leukaemia and normal B lymphocytes: effect of PMA and PWM by I. Drucker, A. Klajman, M. Revel, Y. Manor, S. Ben-Efraim, D. Novick

“…Phorbol-12-myristate 13 acetate (PMA) caused a decrease in the levels of IL-6 in 14 out of 16 cultures and an increase in levels of sIL6R in all 15 cases. The effect of pokeweed mitogen (PWM) was variable and not significant. …”

The Effect of IL-4 Gene Polymorphisms on Cytokine Production in Patients with Chronic Periodontitis and in Healthy Controls by Jirina Bartova, Petra Borilova Linhartova, Stepan Podzimek, Tatjana Janatova, Kazi Svobodova, Antonin Fassmann, Jana Duskova, Jaromir Belacek, Lydie Izakovicova Holla

“…Production of cytokines (IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-10, IL-17, TNFα, INFγ, and VEGF) was studied after in vitro stimulation of isolated peripheral blood by mitogens (Pokeweed mitogen, Concanavalin A), dental plaque bacteria (Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, Tannerella forsythia, Porphyromonas gingivalis, and Prevotella intermedia), and Heat Shock Protein (HSP) 70 by the Luminex multiplex cytokine analysis system. …”

Valorization of Betalain Pigments Extracted from <i>Phytolacca americana</i> L. Berries as Natural Colorant in Cheese Formulation by Ionuț Dumitru Veleșcu, Ioana Cristina Crivei, Andreea Bianca Balint, Vlad Nicolae Arsenoaia, Alexandru Dragoș Robu, Florina Stoica, Roxana Nicoleta Rațu

“…In response to consumer demand for more sustainable and health-conscious products, the food sector is increasingly shifting towards the use of natural additives. Pokeweed (<i>Phytolacca americana</i> L.) is a medicinal plant that contains valuable biologically active compounds, including betacyanins, which serve as its red pigments, along with phenolic acids, flavonoids, polyphenolic compounds, and others. …”
