Scientists reveal distribution of dark matter around galaxies 12 billion years ago

Phys.org 

A collaboration led by scientists at Nagoya University in Japan has investigated the nature of dark matter surrounding galaxies seen as they were 12 billion years ago, billions of years further back in time than ever before. Their findings, published in Physical Review Letters, offer the tantalizing possibility that the fundamental rules of cosmology may differ when examining the early history of our universe.

Proposed new vessel speed regulations to protect North Atlantic right whales

Phys.org 

Today, NOAA Fisheries announced proposed changes to vessel speed regulations to further protect North Atlantic right whales from death and serious injuries resulting from collisions—part of a multifaceted approach to stabilize and recover this endangered population. The changes would expand the current mandatory seasonal speed restrictions of 10 knots or less in designated areas of the ocean and extend to most vessels measuring 35 to 65 feet in length.

PrrA modulates Mycobacterium tuberculosis response to multiple environmental cues and is critically regulated by serine/threonine protein kinases

Plos.org 

by David Giacalone, Rochelle E. Yap, Alwyn M. V. Ecker, Shumin Tan

The ability of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) to adapt to its surrounding environment is critical for the bacterium to successfully colonize its host. Transcriptional changes are a vital mechanism by which Mtb responds to key environmental signals experienced, such as pH, chloride (Cl-), nitric oxide (NO), and hypoxia. However, much remains unknown regarding how Mtb coordinates its response to the disparate signals seen during infection. Читать дальше...

Modeling within-host and aerosol dynamics of SARS-CoV-2: The relationship with infectiousness

Plos.org 

by Nora Heitzman-Breen, Stanca M. Ciupe

The relationship between transmission of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and the amount of virus present in the proximity of a susceptible host is not understood. Here, we developed a within-host and aerosol mathematical model and used it to determine the relationship between viral kinetics in the upper respiratory track, viral kinetics in the aerosols, and new transmissions in golden hamsters challenged with SARS-CoV-2.

Amyloid pathology disrupts gliotransmitter release in astrocytes

Plos.org 

by Anup Gopalakrishna Pillai, Suhita Nadkarni

Accumulation of amyloid-beta (Aβ) is associated with synaptic dysfunction and destabilization of astrocytic calcium homeostasis. A growing body of evidence support astrocytes as active modulators of synaptic transmission via calcium-mediated gliotransmission. However, the details of mechanisms linking Aβ signaling, astrocytic calcium dynamics, and gliotransmission are not known. We developed a biophysical model that describes calcium signaling...

A framework for macroscopic phase-resetting curves for generalised spiking neural networks

Plos.org 

by Grégory Dumont, Alberto Pérez-Cervera, Boris Gutkin

Brain rhythms emerge from synchronization among interconnected spiking neurons. Key properties of such rhythms can be gleaned from the phase-resetting curve (PRC). Inferring the PRC and developing a systematic phase reduction theory for large-scale brain rhythms remains an outstanding challenge. Here we present a theoretical framework and methodology to compute the PRC of generic spiking networks with emergent collective oscillations. Читать дальше...

Way it Was: Colwell-Dorset Home, circa 1915

«La Crosse Tribune» (lacrossetribune.com) 

This Queen Anne style home of the Colwell-Dorset family stood at 330 South 6th Street, La Crosse, from 1888 to 1966. It replaced the original family home to the east. When the last survivor, Helen Dorset, died in 1965, as…

EU, UK Delay Cutting Off Russia From Oil Insurance Market

Oilprice.com 

The EU and the UK have slowed efforts to have Russia shut off from the most important maritime insurance market amid concerns that a full insurance ban would limit global oil supply and push oil prices even higher, the Financial Times reports, citing UK and EU officials. The UK was set to join an EU insurance ban after the UK and the European Union agreed in May to jointly shut off Russia's access to oil cargo insurance. Under those plans, Russia would be effectively shut out of more than 90% of the global oil shipment insurance market. Читать дальше...

Silk Faw Installation / Outline Collective

Archdaily.com 

The installation is a result of the collaboration by the international team composed of Claudio Araya (Chile), Yahya Abdullah (Canada), and Iga Majorek (Poland) in collaboration with AMDL Circle, the architecture studio led by Michele De Lucchi (architects of record). Commissioned to design the facade for Silk-FAW’s grand reveals of the Hongqi S9 electric supercar at the Fuorisalone 2021 design week, the proposal poses the question of the reveal itself.

A complete twelve-gene deletion null mutant reveals that cyclic di-GMP is a global regulator of phase-transition and host colonization in Erwinia amylovora

Plos.org 

by Roshni R. Kharadi, Kayla Selbmann, George W. Sundin

Cyclic-di-GMP (c-di-GMP) is an essential bacterial second messenger that regulates biofilm formation and pathogenicity. To study the global regulatory effect of individual components of the c-di-GMP metabolic system, we deleted all 12 diguanylate cyclase (dgc) and phosphodiesterase (pde)-encoding genes in E. amylovora Ea1189 (Ea1189Δ12). Ea1189Δ12 was impaired in surface attachment due to a transcriptional dysregulation of the type IV pilus and the flagellar filament. Читать дальше...
