Contribution of Urea to Nitrite Production in Southern Ocean Waters with Contrasting Nitrifying Communities

The paper compares the contributions of ammonia and urea to nitrite production in Southern Ocean waters, finding urea-N contributes ~25% of nitrite production, comparable to temperate oceans.

Assessment of ethanol and nicotine interactions using a reinforcer demand modeling with grouped and individual levels of analyses in a long-access self-administration model using male rats.

This study examines ethanol and nicotine interactions using reinforcer demand modeling in rats, finding group and individual level differences in demand and reciprocal effects during concurrent self-administration.

Limited accessibility of nitrogen supplied as amino acids, amides, and amines as energy sources for marine Thaumarchaeota

This study tests whether marine Thaumarchaeota can directly oxidize nitrogen from DON compounds like polyamines, amino acids, and amides, finding that they require heterotrophic bacteria for efficient oxidation.

Purification, identification, and characterization of two benzophenanthridine alkaloids from Corydalis longicalcarata rhizomes with anti-mitotic and polyploidy-inducing activities

This study identifies two benzophenanthridine alkaloids from Corydalis longicalcarata rhizomes with anti-mitotic and polyploidy-inducing activities through a phenotypic screen of medicinal plant extracts.

A high-content screen identifies the vulnerability of MYC-overexpressing cells to dimethylfasudil

This paper identifies dimethylfasudil as a synthetic lethal compound for MYC-overexpressing cells through a high-content screen, showing its efficacy in rodent and human cell lines.

The anti-apoptotic proteins Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL suppress Beclin1/Atg6-mediated lethal autophagy in polyploid cells

The paper shows Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL reduce autophagic cell death in polyploid cells treated with Aurora-B kinase inhibitors, contributing to resistance to these drugs.
