Investigating the phenology of seaward migration of juvenile brown trout (Salmo trutta) in two European populations (2016)
Journal Article
Winter, E., Tummers, J., Aarestrup, K., Baktoft, H., & Lucas, M. (2016). Investigating the phenology of seaward migration of juvenile brown trout (Salmo trutta) in two European populations. Hydrobiologia, 775(1), 139-151. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10750-016-2720-z

Recent evidence supports the existence of a downstream autumn-migratory phenotype in juvenile anadromous brown trout (Salmo trutta), however the precise timing, extent and ecological significance of such behaviour remains ambiguous. We investigated t... Read More about Investigating the phenology of seaward migration of juvenile brown trout (Salmo trutta) in two European populations.

An initial phase of JNK activation inhibits cell death early in the endoplasmic reticulum stress response (2016)
Journal Article
Brown, M., Strudwick, N., Suwara, M., Sutcliffe, L., Mihai, A., Ali, A., …Schröder, M. (2016). An initial phase of JNK activation inhibits cell death early in the endoplasmic reticulum stress response. Journal of Cell Science, 129(12), 2317-2328. https://doi.org/10.1242/jcs.179127

Accumulation of unfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) activates the unfolded protein response (UPR). In mammalian cells, UPR signals generated by several ER membrane resident proteins, including the bifunctional protein kinase endoribon...

IL-13 mediates collagen deposition via STAT6 and microRNA-135b: a role for epigenetics (2016)
Journal Article
O’Reilly, S., Ciechomska, M., Fullard, N., Przyborski, S., & van Laar, J. (2016). IL-13 mediates collagen deposition via STAT6 and microRNA-135b: a role for epigenetics. Scientific Reports, 6, Article 25066. https://doi.org/10.1038/srep25066

Systemic sclerosis is an autoimmune connective tissue disease in which T cells play a prominent role. We and others have previously demonstrated a role for T cell-derived IL-13 in mediating the induction of collagen in dermal fibroblasts and that blo...

Epidermal Notch1 recruits RORgamma+ group 3 innate lymphoid cells to orchestrate normal skin repair (2016)
Journal Article
Li, Z., Hodgkinson, T., Gothard, E., Boroumand, S., Lamb, R., Cummins, I., …Ambler, C. (2016). Epidermal Notch1 recruits RORgamma+ group 3 innate lymphoid cells to orchestrate normal skin repair. Nature Communications, 7, Article 11394. https://doi.org/10.1038/ncomms11394

Notch has a well-defined role in controlling cell fate decisions in the embryo and the adult epidermis and immune systems, yet emerging evidence suggests Notch also directs non-cell-autonomous signalling in adult tissues. Here, we show that Notch1 wo... Read More about Epidermal Notch1 recruits RORgamma+ group 3 innate lymphoid cells to orchestrate normal skin repair.

Fine-scale behavioural differences distinguish resource use by ecomorphs in a closed ecosystem (2016)
Journal Article
Hawley, K., Rosten, C., Christensen, G., & Lucas, M. (2016). Fine-scale behavioural differences distinguish resource use by ecomorphs in a closed ecosystem. Scientific Reports, 6, Article 24369. https://doi.org/10.1038/srep24369

Temporal differences in habitat use and foraging specialisms between ecomorphs represent aspects of behavioural phenotype that are poorly understood with regard to the origin and maintenance of ecological diversity. We tested the role of behaviour in... Read More about Fine-scale behavioural differences distinguish resource use by ecomorphs in a closed ecosystem.

Choice of baseline climate data impacts projected species’ responses to climate change (2016)
Journal Article
Baker, D. J., Hartley, A. J., Butchart, S. H., & Willis, S. G. (2016). Choice of baseline climate data impacts projected species’ responses to climate change. Global Change Biology, 22(7), 2392-2404. https://doi.org/10.1111/gcb.13273

Climate data created from historic climate observations are integral to most assessments of potential climate change impacts, and frequently comprise the baseline period used to infer species-climate relationships. They are often also central to down... Read More about Choice of baseline climate data impacts projected species’ responses to climate change.

Genomic architecture of phenotypic divergence between two hybridizing plant species along an elevational gradient (2016)
Journal Article
Brennan, A., Hiscock, S., & Abbott, R. (2016). Genomic architecture of phenotypic divergence between two hybridizing plant species along an elevational gradient. AoB PLANTS, 8, Article plw022. https://doi.org/10.1093/aobpla/plw022

Knowledge of the genetic basis of phenotypic divergence between species and how such divergence is caused and maintained is crucial to an understanding of speciation and the generation of biodiversity. The hybrid zone between Senecio aethnensis and S... Read More about Genomic architecture of phenotypic divergence between two hybridizing plant species along an elevational gradient.

ROS homeostasis regulates somatic embryogenesis via the regulation of auxin signaling in cotton (2016)
Journal Article
Zhou, T., Yang, X., Guo, K., Deng, J., Xu, J., Gao, W., …Zhang, X. (2016). ROS homeostasis regulates somatic embryogenesis via the regulation of auxin signaling in cotton. Molecular and Cellular Proteomics, 15(6), 2108-2124. https://doi.org/10.1074/mcp.m115.049338

Somatic embryogenesis (S.E.) is a versatile model for understanding the mechanisms of plant embryogenesis and a useful tool for plant propagation. To decipher the intricate molecular program and potentially to control the parameters affecting the fre...

Optical Monitoring of Living Nerve Terminal Labeling in Hair Follicle Lanceolate Endings of the Ex Vivo Mouse Ear Skin (2016)
Other
Ear Skin

A novel dissection and recording technique is described for optical monitoring staining and de-staining of lanceolate terminals surrounding hair follicles in the skin of the mouse pinna. The preparation is simple and relatively fast, reliably yieldin...
