The mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) activates mitochondrial respiration and enhances mobility by regulating mitochondrial redox state

Sonia Karaz, Umberto De Marchi, Vincenzo Sorrentino, Federico Sizzano

Regulation of mitochondrial redox balance is emerging as a key event for cell signaling in both physiological and pathological conditions. However, the link between the mitochondrial redox state and the modulation of these conditions remains poorly defined ...

On the dependence of Water Use Efficiency on aridity.

Gabriele Manoli, Sara Bonetti

Water use efficiency (WUE) describes how efficiently plants transpire water to assimilate carbon and produce biomass. Here, we used a variety of data sources, including leaf-level gas exchange measurements, tree-ring isotopes, flux-tower observations, and ...

In vivo application and validation of a novel noninvasive method to estimate the end-systolic elastance

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Georgios Rovas, Vasiliki Bikia, Stamatia Zoi Pagoulatou

Accurate assessment of the left ventricular (LV) systolic function is indispensable in the clinic. However, estimation of a precise index of cardiac contractility, i.e., the end-systolic elastance (E-es), is invasive and cannot be established as clinical r ...

Plant wax and carbon isotope response to heat and drought in the conifer Juniperus monosperma

Charlotte Grossiord

Plant waxes, including n-alkanes, are commonly used for a wide range of paleo-applications. Several common traits of n-alkanes that are used as paleo-proxies include chain length distribution and average chain length (ACL), as well as plant wax carbon and ...

The response of stomatal conductance to seasonal drought in tropical forests

Charlotte Grossiord, Jin Wu

Stomata regulate CO2 uptake for photosynthesis and water loss through transpiration. The approaches used to represent stomatal conductance (g s) in models vary. In particular, current understanding of drivers of the variation in a key parameter in those mo ...

A Graphical Description of Partial Exchangeability

Mats Julius Stensrud, Aaron Leor Sarvet

Partial exchangeability is sufficient for the identification of some causal effects of interest. Here we review the use of common graphical tools and the sufficient component cause model in the context of partial exchangeability. We illustrate the utility ...

Signatures of coherent flow structures in the atmospheric surface layer over Lake Geneva

David Andrew Barry, Ulrich Lemmin, Mehrshad Foroughan

Reliable estimates of air-water exchange of momentum, heat, and gas are vital for understanding boundary layer dynamics and for developing accurate global and regional climate and weather forecasting models. Spatiotemporal variability of physical processes ...

The impact of heart rate on pulse wave velocity: an in-silico evaluation

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Georgios Rovas, Vasiliki Bikia, Stamatia Zoi Pagoulatou

Background: Clinical and experimental evidence regarding the influence of heart rate (HR) on arterial stiffness and its surrogate marker carotid-to-femoral pulse wave velocity (cf-PWV) is conflicting. We aimed to evaluate the effect of HR on cf-PWV measure ...

Interplay of hyporheic exchange and fine particle deposition in a riverbed

David Andrew Barry, Pei Zhang

Hyporheic flow transports fine particles into the riverbed, which can lead to clogging of the bed and in turn affect hyporheic flow and exchange processes. Field measurements and numerical simulations show the formation of a low-permeability layer (LPL) ne ...

Effects of Lake–Reservoir Pumped-Storage Operations on Temperature and Water Quality

Alfred Johny Wüest, Martin Schmid, Ulrike Kobler

Pumped-storage (PS) hydropower plants are expected to make an important contribution to energy storage in the next decades with growing market shares of new renewable electricity. PS operations affect the water quality of the connected water bodies by exch ...
