Model for grapevine bud cold hardiness and budbreak response: Data files by Amaya Atucha (20927132)

“…Recent studies demonstrate freezing temperatures promote chill accumulation and cold hardiness influences time to budbreak—the phenotype used for dormancy evaluations. Here we evaluated bud cold hardiness and budbreak responses of grapevines (<i>Vitis </i>hybrids) throughout chill accumulation under three treatments: constant (5 °C), fluctuating (−3.5 to 6.5 °C daily), and field conditions (Madison, Wisconsin, USA). …”

Oral lactate intensifies insulin toxicity during severe insulin-induced hypoglycemia in mice by Vanessa Rodrigues Vilela (12848422)

“…For this purpose, mice were fasted for 15 h and then given an intraperitoneal injection of regular insulin (5.0 U/kg or 10.0 U/kg). Immediately after insulin injection, the mice received an oral dose of saline (control), glucose (5.5 mmol/kg), or lactate (18.0 mmol/kg). …”

Guanylate-binding Protein 1 (Gbp1) Contributes to Cell-autonomous Immunity against <i>Toxoplasma gondii</i> by Elizabeth M. Selleck (407365)

“…Virulent strains of <i>T. gondii</i> avoided recruitment of Gbp1 to the parasitophorous vacuole in a strain-dependent manner that was mediated by the parasite virulence factors ROP18, an active serine/threonine kinase, and the pseudokinase ROP5. Increased recruitment of Gbp1 to Δ<i>rop18</i> or Δ<i>rop5</i> parasites was associated with clearance in IFN-γ-activated macrophages <i>in vitro</i>, a process dependent on the autophagy protein Atg5. …”

Lake sediment record of eolian activity on the eastern Tibetan Plateau since 15 cal ka BP by Xiaohuan Hou (19665160)
