Weak effects of geolocators on small birds: A meta-analysis controlled for phylogeny and publication bias. (2019)
Journal Article
Brlík, V., Koleček, J., Burgess, M., Hahn, S., Humple, D., Krist, M., …Procházka, P. (2019). Weak effects of geolocators on small birds: A meta-analysis controlled for phylogeny and publication bias. Journal of Animal Ecology, https://doi.org/10.1111/1365-2656.12962

Currently, the deployment of tracking devices is one of the most frequently used approaches to study movement ecology of birds. Recent miniaturization of light-level geolocators enabled studying small bird species whose migratory patterns were widely...

Spatial and habitat variation in aphid, butterfly, moth and bird phenologies over the last half century (2019)
Journal Article
Bell, J. R., Botham, M. S., Henrys, P. A., Leech, D. I., Pearce-Higgins, J. W., Shortall, C. R., …Thackeray, S. J. (2019). Spatial and habitat variation in aphid, butterfly, moth and bird phenologies over the last half century. Global Change Biology, 25(6), 1982-1994. https://doi.org/10.1111/gcb.14592

Global warming has advanced the timing of biological events, potentially leading to disruption across trophic levels. The potential importance of phenological change as a driver of population trends has been suggested. To fully understand the possibl...

Egg White Hydrolysate as a functional food ingredient to prevent cognitive dysfunction in rats following long-term exposure to aluminum (2019)
Journal Article
(2019). Egg White Hydrolysate as a functional food ingredient to prevent cognitive dysfunction in rats following long-term exposure to aluminum. Scientific reports, 1868 - ?. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-018-38226-7

Aluminum (Al), which is omnipresent in human life, is a potent neurotoxin. Here, we have tested the potential for Egg White Hydrolysate (EWH) to protect against changes in cognitive function in rats exposed to both high and low levels of Al. Indeed,...

Ultrastructural localization of the likely mechanoelectrical transduction channel protein, transmembrane-like channel 1 (TMC1) during development of cochlear hair cells. (2019)
Journal Article
(2019). Ultrastructural localization of the likely mechanoelectrical transduction channel protein, transmembrane-like channel 1 (TMC1) during development of cochlear hair cells. Scientific reports, https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-018-37563-x

Transmembrane channel like protein 1 (TMC1) is likely to be a pore-forming subunit of the transduction channel of cochlear hair cells that is mechanically gated by tension on tip links in the stereocilia bundle. To localise TMC1 precisely, we labelle...

Developing a 3D intestinal epithelium model for livestock species (2019)
Journal Article
(2019). Developing a 3D intestinal epithelium model for livestock species. Cell and Tissue Research, 409-424. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00441-018-2924-9

The in vitro 3D culture of intestinal epithelium is a valuable resource in the study of its function. Organoid culture exploits stem cells’ ability to regenerate and produce differentiated epithelium. Intestinal organoid models from rodent or human t...

X-Ray Absorption Spectroscopy Measurements of Cu-ProIAPP Complexes at Physiological Concentrations (2019)
Journal Article
(2019). X-Ray Absorption Spectroscopy Measurements of Cu-ProIAPP Complexes at Physiological Concentrations. Condensed Matter, 13 -?. https://doi.org/10.3390/condmat4010013

The amyloidogenic islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) and the associated pro-peptide ProIAPP1–48 are involved in cell death in type 2 diabetes mellitus. It has been observed that interactions of this peptide with metal ions have an impact on the cytotox...

Multi-Method Characterisation of the Human Circulating Microbiome (2019)
Journal Article
(2019). Multi-Method Characterisation of the Human Circulating Microbiome. Frontiers in Microbiology, 9, https://doi.org/10.3389/fmicb.2018.03266

The term microbiome describes the genetic material encoding the various microbial populations that inhabit our body. Whilst colonization of various body niches (e.g., the gut) by dynamic communities of microorganisms is now universally accepted, the...
