Journal ArticleDOI

Four Decades of Andean Timberline Migration and Implications for Biodiversity Loss with Climate Change

TL;DR: It is anticipated that the ecotone will be a hard barrier to migration under future climate change, leading to drastic population and biodiversity losses in the region unless intensive management steps are taken.
Journal ArticleDOI

A sensible climate solution for the boreal forest

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed to increase the proportion of broad-leaved tree species in the boreal forest to reduce the fire risk in managed boreal forests, which is an overlooked mitigation adaptation strategy with multiple benefits.
Journal ArticleDOI

Myelin Basic Protein Cleaves Cell Adhesion Molecule L1 and Promotes Neuritogenesis and Cell Survival

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that myelin basic protein (MBP) binds to L1 in a Lewisx-dependent manner and that this MBP cleaves L1 as a serine protease in the L1 extracellular domain at Arg687 yielding a transmembrane fragment that promotes neurite outgrowth and neuronal survival in cell culture.
Journal ArticleDOI

Small Molecule Agonists of Cell Adhesion Molecule L1 Mimic L1 Functions In Vivo

TL;DR: It is suggested that application of small organic compounds that bind to L1 and stimulate the beneficial homophilic L1 functions may prove to be a valuable addition to treatments of nervous system injuries.
