Macrophage Activities in Myocardial Infarction and Heart Failure by Sophia Esi Duncan, Shan Gao, Michael Sarhene, Joel Wake Coffie, Deng Linhua, Xingru Bao, Zhang Jing, Sheng Li, Rui Guo, Jing Su, Guanwei Fan

“…Therefore, in this review, we discuss the recent findings and new development about macrophage activations in HF, its role in the healthy heart, and some therapeutic targets for myocardial repair. We have a strong believe that there is a need to give maximum attention to cardiac resident macrophages due to the fact that they perform various tasks in wound healing, self-renewal of the heart, and tissue remodeling. …”

La gouvernance des espaces protégés: vers un partage de la nature ? by Céline Chadenas, Vincent Andreu-Boussut, Celine Barthon, Xavier Michel, Arnaud de Lajartre

“…It becomes all the more essential as the pressure exerted around or even inside the perimeter of protection is perceived as important, driven by a very strong craze for activities in nature. This zoning gives the impression of loosening binding protection status towards more integrated and shared forms of management and governance. …”
