The membrane pacemaker hypothesis: novel tests during the ontogeny of endothermy

Description: Article explores the ‘membrane pacemaker’ hypothesis which proposes a biochemical explanation for among-species variation in resting metabolism, based on the positive correlation between membrane docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and metabolic rate. The authors tested this hypothesis using a novel model, altricial red-winged blackbird nestlings, predicting that the proportion of DHA in muscle and liver membranes should increase with the increasing metabolic rate of the nestling as it develops endother… more

A Performance Conserving Approach for Reducing Memory Power Consumption in Multi-Core Systems

Description: Article proposes a strategy called Dynamic Bank Partitioning (DBP), which allocates memory banks to different applications based on their memory access characteristic, and also proposes an adaptive method to dynamically select an optimal page policy for each bank according to the characteristics of memory accesses that each bank receives to further reduce power consumption.

Humanin Attenuates NMDA-Induced Excitotoxicity by Inhibiting ROS-dependent JNK/p38 MAPK Pathway

Description: This article highlights a study aimed to investigate neuroprotective mechanisms of HN. We analyzed intracellular Ca²+ levels, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and the MAPKs signal transduction cascade using an in vitro NMDA-mediated excitotoxicity of cortical neurons model.

Factors Associated with Conservation Participation by Local Communities in Gaurishankar Conservation Area Project, Nepal

Description: This article examines how residents’ natural resource dependency and other social, economic, and access-related variables predict conservation participation.Overall, key findings suggest that conservation participation at Gaurishankar Conservation Area Project (GCAP)—a newly designated mountainous protected area in Nepal— needs to be improved with multiple outreach activities, especially to resource-dependent households.
