Nomadic ungulate movements under threat: Declining mobility of Mongolian gazelles in the Eastern Steppe.

P. Mendgen, N. Dejid, K. Olson, B. Buuveibaatar, J. M. Calabrese, B. Chimeddorj, M. Dalannast, W. F. Fagan, P. Leimgruber, T. Mueller

This study shows that Mongolian gazelles have reduced long-distance movement by 36% over 15 years due to increasing vehicle traffic, despite no physical barriers.

Clarifying space use concepts in ecology: range vs. occurrence distributions

J. M. Alston, C. H. Fleming, M. J. Noonan, M. A. Tucker, I. Silva, C. Folta, T. S. Akre, A. H. Ali, J. L. Belant, D. Beyer, N. Blaum, K. Boehning-Gaese, R. Cunha de Paula, J. Dekker, J. Drescher-Lehman, , W. F. Fagan

This paper distinguishes between range and occurrence distributions in ecology, showing that conflating them can lead to incorrect ecological inferences and conservation practices.

Identification of Salivary Gland Escape Barriers to Western Equine Encephalitis Virus in the Natural Vector, Culex tarsalis

C. B. Stauft, A. T. Phillips, T. T. Wang, K. Olson

The paper identifies a salivary gland escape barrier in Culex tarsalis mosquitoes infected with Western equine encephalitis virus, showing that mosquito-derived strains transmit more efficiently than human-derived strains.

Defining the Immune Responses for SARS-CoV-2-Human Macrophage Interactions

M. Abdelmoaty, P. Yeapuri, J. Machhi, K. Olson, F. Shahjin, Y. Zhou, L. Jingjing, K. Pandey, A. Acharya, S. Byrareddy, L. Mosley, H. Gendelman

This study investigates SARS-CoV-2 interactions with human macrophages, finding that viral exposure leads to pro-inflammatory cytokine expression and reduced type I interferon activity.

Differences in IgG antibody responses following BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273 Vaccines

J. G. Montoya, A. E. Adams, V. Bonetti, S. Deng, N. A. Link, S. Pertsch, K. Olson, M. Li, E. C. Dillon, D. L. Frosch

This study compares IgG antibody responses to BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273 vaccines, finding higher and earlier titers with mRNA-1273, possibly due to higher S-protein dosage.

Ubiquitin and ATP-dependent unfoldase activity of P97/VCP·NPLOC4·UFD1L1 is enhanced by a mutation that causes multisystem proteinopathy

E. Blythe, K. Olson, V. Chau, R. Deshaies

The paper demonstrates that wild-type p97 unfolds proteins via NPLOC4-UFD1L, ATP hydrolysis, and ubiquitination, and shows a p97 mutation enhances this activity, potentially contributing to IBMPFD pathogenesis.
