MULTI-SUBSTRATE INDUCED RESPIRATION (FUNCTIONAL CAPACITY) IN AGRICULTURALLY DEGRADED AND INTACT RESTIAD BOGS: IMPLICATIONS FOR CARBON AND NITROGEN CYCLING

Multi-substrate induced respiration (functional capacity) in agriculturally degraded and intact restiad bogs: implications for carbon and nitrogen cycling

Natural peatlands provide ecosystem services such as carbon storage and habitat, which can be negatively affected (degraded) by the proximity of agricultural land due to lowered water table and increased nutrient deposition.We assessed peat biochemistry and microbial function in the dry, fluctuating and saturated zones of the peat deposits at Moana

International air travel-related control measures to contain the Covid-19 pandemic: A companion review to a Cochrane rapid review

Background: COVID-19 has proven to be challenging to manage for many reasons, including its high infection rate.One of the potential ways to limit its spread is by limiting international travel.The objective of this systematic review was to identify, critically appraise and summarise evidence on international air travel-related control measures for

Galectin-3 facilitates cell motility in gastric cancer by up-regulating protease-activated receptor-1 (PAR-1) and matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1).

BackgroundGalectin-3 is known to regulate cancer metastasis.However, the underlying mechanism has not been defined.Through the DNA microarray studies after galectin-3 silencing, we demonstrated here that galectin-3 plays a key role in up-regulating the expressions of protease-activated receptor-1 (PAR-1) and matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) PAR-1
