Neurodegeneration in a novel invertebrate model system: Failed microtubule‐mediated cell adhesion and unraveling of macroglia
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2023 at "Journal of Comparative Neurology"
DOI: 10.1002/cne.25450
Abstract: Neurodegenerative diseases are among the main causes of death in the United States, leading to irreversible disintegration of neurons. Despite intense international research efforts, cellular mechanisms that initiate neurodegeneration remain elusive, thus inhibiting the development… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.3559
Abstract: River biodiversity is threatened globally by hydropower dams, and there is a need to understand how dam management favors certain species while filtering out others. We examined aquatic invertebrate communities within the tailwaters 0–24 km… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.3097
Abstract: Wood is a major carbon input into aquatic ecosystems and is thought to decay slowly, yet surprisingly little terrestrial carbon accumulates in marine sediments. A better mechanistic understanding of how habitat conditions and decomposer communities… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00267-017-0938-9
Abstract: We investigated the influence and relative importance of insecticides and other agricultural stressors in determining variability in invertebrate communities in small streams in intensive soy-production regions of Brazil and Paraguay. In Paraguay we sampled 17… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00441-018-2949-0
Abstract: FMRFamide-related proteins have been described in both vertebrate and invertebrate nervous systems and have been suggested to play important roles in a variety of physiological processes. One proposed function is the modulation of signal transduction… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10530-020-02274-w
Abstract: Invasive alien species (IAS) are considered one of the largest drivers of biodiversity loss worldwide and the negative impacts of IAS can also affect human health and economy. More than 12,000 alien species occur in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10750-020-04360-5
Abstract: We compare invertebrate herbivory upon 13 macrophyte species in freshwater wetland systems located in two global ecozones, the Afrotropics and Neotropics, in the context of biotic and environmental factors influencing these wetlands. The two ecozones… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10750-021-04554-5
Abstract: Environmental productivity and biodiversity are two intricately linked ecological concepts. One commonly observed pattern is a unimodal curve with biodiversity peaking at intermediate levels of productivity. While unimodal relationships are by no means universal, biodiversity… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecolind.2017.05.073
Abstract: Abstract Shallow lakes and ponds are valuable ecosystems for conservation management. Aquatic invertebrates constitute a large proportion of diversity in these ecosystems, but their assessment is potentially time consuming and requires great expertise. The use… read more here.
