Our objective was to identify the biological response and the cross-talk between liver and mammary tissue after intramammary infection (IMI) with Escherichia coli (E. coli) using RNAseq technology. Sixteen cows were inoculated with live E. coli into one mammary quarter at ~4–6 weeks in lactation. For all cows, biopsies were...

Detailed subsurface structure contour maps and cross sections have shown the
northern Los Angeles basin to be underlain by a south facing monocline that is
complicated by secondary faults and folds. The monocline forms a structural shelf that
marks the northern boundary of the Los Angeles central trough. The monocline...

Background: Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are synthesized and secreted by immune and epithelial cells that are constantly exposed to environmental microbes. AMPs are essential for barrier defense and deficiencies lead to increased susceptibility to infection. In addition to their ability to disrupt the integrity of bacterial, viral and fungal membranes, AMPs...

Forest ecosystems of the Pacific Northwest of the USA are changing as a result of climate change. Specifically, rise of global temperatures, decline of winter precipitation, earlier loss of snowpack, and increased summer drought are altering the range of Pinus contorta. Simultaneously, flux in environmental conditions within the historic P....

AIM: Landscape management and conservation planning require maps of vegetation
composition and structure over large regions. Species distribution models
(SDMs) are often used for individual species, but projects mapping multiple species
are rarer. We compare maps of plant community composition assembled by
stacking results from many SDMs with multivariate maps...

Two major types of glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGTs) are commonly
used in paleoecological and paleoclimatological reconstructions: isoprenoidal and
branched GDGTs. In aquatic environments, it was originally assumed that isoprenoidal
GDGTs, especially crenarchaeol, derive mainly from aquatic Thaumarchaeota, whilst
branched GDGTs are an allochthonous input derived from soil Bacteria. Recently,...

Listeria monocytogenes is the third most deadly foodborne pathogen in the United States. The young and elderly, as well as pregnant and immunocompromised people are the population most susceptible to serious illness and death from listeriosis infections.
Unlike most foodborne pathogens, L. monocytogenes does not live a solely enteric lifestyle....
Background: Few studies examining the associations between long-term exposure to ambient air pollution and mortality have considered multiple pollutants when assessing changes in exposure due to residential mobility during follow-up.
Objective: We investigated associations between cause-specific mortality and ambient concentrations of fine particulate matter (≤ 2.5 μm; PM₂.₅), ozone (O₃),...

The use of in situ measurements is essential in the validation and evaluation of the algorithms that provide coastal water quality data products from ocean colour satellite remote sensing. Over the past decade, various types of ocean colour algorithms have been developed to deal with the optical complexity of coastal...

An Expert Panel convened by the National Lipid Association previously developed a consensus set of recommendations for the patient-centered management of dyslipidemia in clinical medicine (part 1). These were guided by the principle that reducing elevated levels of atherogenic cholesterol (non–high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol) reduces the risk...
