Economic costs of invasive non-native species in urban areas: An underexplored financial drain.

Urbanization is an important driver of global change associated with a set of environmental modifications that affect the introduction and distribution of invasive non-native species (species with populations transported by humans beyond their natural biogeographic range that established and are spreading in their introduced range; hereafter, invasive species). These species are recognized as a cause of large ecological and economic losses. Nevertheless, the economic impacts of these species in urban areas are still poorly understood.

Development of an Immuno-SPECT/Fluorescent Bimodal Tracer Targeting Human or Murine PD-L1 on Preclinical Models.

Detection of biomarkers to diagnose, treat, and predict the efficacy of cancer therapies is a major clinical challenge. Currently, biomarkers such as PD-L1 are commonly detected from biopsies, but this approach does not take into account the spatiotemporal heterogeneity of their expression in tumors. A solution consists in conjugating monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) targeting these biomarkers with multimodal imaging probes.

Pet cat personality linked to owner-reported predation frequency.

The domestic cat, , is one of the most popular and widespread domestic animals. Because domestic cats can reach high population densities and retain at least some tendency to hunt, their overall impact on wildlife can be severe. Domestic cats have highly variable predation rates depending on the availability of prey in their environment, their owners' practices, and individual cat characteristics.

CBP-HSF2 structural and functional interplay in Rubinstein-Taybi neurodevelopmental disorder.

Patients carrying autosomal dominant mutations in the histone/lysine acetyl transferases CBP or EP300 develop a neurodevelopmental disorder: Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome (RSTS). The biological pathways underlying these neurodevelopmental defects remain elusive. Here, we unravel the contribution of a stress-responsive pathway to RSTS.
