Water mites (Acari, Hydrachnidia) of riparian springs in a small lowland river valley: what are the key factors for species distribution?

Andrzej Zawal, Robert Stryjecki, Edyta Buczyńska, Paweł Buczyński et al. • PeerJ (2018)

This paper examines the impact of disturbance factors—flooding and intermittency—on the distribution of water mites in the riparian springs situated in the valley of a small lowland river, the Krąpiel. The landscape factors and physicochemi...

Interacting roles of gut microbiota and T cells in the development of autoimmune hepatitis

Qingwei Wu, Zhifa Ge, Chengyu Lv, Qifeng He • Frontiers in Immunology (2025)

Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a progressive liver inflammatory disease mediated by an autoimmune response, with an increasing incidence rate. In severe cases, AIH will rapidly progress to liver cirrhosis and liver failure and even lead to d...

Efficacy and safety of biofilm dispersal by glycoside hydrolases in wounds

Whitni K. Redman, Garrett S. Welch, Avery C. Williams, Addyson J. Damron et al. • Biofilm (2021)

Novel anti-biofilm and dispersal agents are currently being investigated in an attempt to combat biofilm-associated wound infections. Glycoside hydrolases (GHs) are enzymes that hydrolyze the glycosidic bonds between sugars, such as those f...

Microenvironment‐adaptive nanodecoy synergizes bacterial eradication, inflammation alleviation, and immunomodulation in promoting biofilm‐associated diabetic chronic wound healing cascade

Lei Chen, Mengna Peng, Wei He, Xiaoli Hu et al. • Aggregate (2024)

Abstract The presence of bacterial biofilms and the occurrence of excessive inflammatory response greatly imped the healing process of chronic wounds in diabetic patients. However, effective strategies to simultaneously address these issues...

Improving the Transferability of Suspended Solid Estimation in Wetland and Deltaic Waters with an Empirical Hyperspectral Approach

Daniel Jensen, Marc Simard, Kyle Cavanaugh, Yongwei Sheng et al. • Remote Sensing (2019)

The deposition of suspended sediment is an important process that helps wetlands accrete surface material and maintain elevation in the face of sea level rise. Optical remote sensing is often employed to map total suspended solids (TSS), th...
