TL;DR: For the first time, a large Eemian paleolake was observed by 29°N in the Mudawwara depression (Southern Jordan) which prolongates into Saudi Arabia as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conducted a qualitative study using semi-structured interviews with entrepreneurs involved in the sharing accommodation sector in Petra, Jordan and found that sharing accommodation entrepreneurs were mainly driven by the desire for economic and cultural benefits.

TL;DR: In this article, an empirical model of internal marketing (IM) and internal service quality (ISQ) in tourism restaurants operating in Jordan has been examined, and the empirical findings indicate that IM consists of six dimensions: staff recruitment, staff training, internal communications, staff motivation, job security and staff retention.
Abstract: Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine an empirical model of internal marketing (IM) and internal service quality (ISQ) in tourism restaurants operating in Jordan.Design/methodology/approach – A structured and self‐administered survey was employed targeting managers and employees of tourism restaurants operating in Jordan. A sample of 334 of tourism restaurants managers and employees were involved in the survey. A series of exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were used to assess the research constructs dimensions, unidimensionality, validity and composite reliability. Structural path model analysis was also used to test the hypothesised interrelationships of the research model.Findings – The empirical findings indicate that IM consists of six dimensions: staff recruitment, staff training, internal communications, staff motivation, job security and staff retention. Staff recruitment, staff training, and internal communications positively and significantly affected staff motivation. Staf...

TL;DR: It is identified here, by RNA sequencing, that both C9ORF72 and TARDBP iPSC-MNs have upregulation of Ca2-permeable AMPA and NMDA subunits and impairment of mitochondrial Ca2+ buffering due to an imbalance of MICU1 and MICU2 on the mitochondrial Ca 2+ uniporter, indicating that impaired mitochondrialCa2+ uptake contributes to glutamate excitotoxicity.
Abstract: TDP-43 dysfunction is common to 97% of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) cases, including those with mutations in C9orf72. To investigate how C9ORF72 mutations drive cellular pathology in ALS and to identify convergent mechanisms between C9ORF72 and TARDBP mutations, we analyzed motor neurons (MNs) derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from patients with ALS. C9ORF72 iPSC-MNs have higher Ca2+ release after depolarization, delayed recovery to baseline after glutamate stimulation, and lower levels of calbindin compared with CRISPR/Cas9 genome-edited controls. TARDBP iPS-derived MNs show high glutamate-induced Ca2+ release. We identify here, by RNA sequencing, that both C9ORF72 and TARDBP iPSC-MNs have upregulation of Ca2+-permeable AMPA and NMDA subunits and impairment of mitochondrial Ca2+ buffering due to an imbalance of MICU1 and MICU2 on the mitochondrial Ca2+ uniporter, indicating that impaired mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake contributes to glutamate excitotoxicity and is a shared feature of MNs with C9ORF72 or TARDBP mutations.
