Effects of habitat complexity on the abundance, species richness and size of darkling beetles (Tenebrionidae) in artificial vegetation
Published 2016“…We deployed artificial vegetation with 4 different interstructural space widths (complexities): 6, 10, 14 and 27 mm. At the high levels of habitat complexity used in this study, the main effect of increasing complexity was excluding beetles from higher complexity treatments, particularly larger beetle species. …”

Immunoprofile of childhood diabetes
Published 2023“…When transcriptomic data was interrogated, an imbalance between ITGA4/ ITGB1 was observed in all groups where CD49d showed increased expression. Associated with these findings, anti-inflammatory Treg cytokines including IL-10 were decreased in T2D patients and elevated plasma levels of IL-17, which contributes to the insulin resistance and inflammation were observed.…”
