Earth's Population Has Hit 8 Billion People, But There's Still Hope For Us Yet

This would lead to famine, disease, war and other associated travails. So far, that hasn't happened. In 1968, 170 years later, Paul Ehrlich published a

Here, the authors present an atomic-level tailoring route to create paracrystalline Zr-Nb-Hf-Ta-Mo high-entropy alloy through local amorphization induced by atomic-level Pt with negative mixing enthalpy.
A cooperative nano-CRISPR scaffold potentiates immunotherapy via activation of tumour-intrinsic pyroptosis
Nature Communications, Published online: 11 February 2023; doi:10.1038/s41467-023-36550-9 Delivery of immune therapy drugs to tumours might be hampered by their limited bioavailability and the difficulty of targeting complex exogenous compounds. Here authors trigger immunologic cell death, via activating tumour-cell-intrinsic pathways via CRISPR-based nanotechnology to enable efficient anti-tumou

Following a Two-Year Decline, Suicide Rates Rose Again in 2021
Suicide increased among younger Black, Hispanic and Native American people, and declined among whites and older people, the C.D.C. reported.
A latitudinal gradient of deep-sea invasions for marine fishes
Nature Communications, Published online: 11 February 2023; doi:10.1038/s41467-023-36501-4 This study finds that high-latitude fish clades with the fastest speciation rates also exhibit elevated rates of depth evolution, creating a prevailing latitudinal gradient of deep-sea invasions concentrated in poleward regions. These results advance our understanding of how niche lability and climate shape
Topsoe inviterer Europas unge talenter helt ind i laboratoriet og håber de kommer igen

Militaries are boosting spending on high-tech surveillance balloons
Military interest in balloon surveillance had been increasing even before a Chinese-launched balloon wandered across the continental US
T cell-independent eradication of experimental glioma by intravenous TLR7/8-agonist-loaded nanoparticles
Nature Communications, Published online: 11 February 2023; doi:10.1038/s41467-023-36321-6 Glioblastoma is a highly aggressive, and also the most common, brain tumour type in adults. Here, the authors generate a nanoparticle encapsulating the TLR7/8 agonist, R848, which induces tumour regression in mice by reprogramming myeloid cells independently of T and NK cells.
Mechanistic insights into RNA surveillance by the canonical poly(A) polymerase Pla1 of the MTREC complex
Nature Communications, Published online: 11 February 2023; doi:10.1038/s41467-023-36402-6 Here the authors show how the MTREC core protein Red1 binds to and sequesters Pla1 from the 3'-end processing machinery to hyperadenylate cryptic unstable transcripts and target them to the exosome for efficient degradation.

Creation of chiral interface channels for quantized transport in magnetic topological insulator multilayer heterostructures
Nature Communications, Published online: 11 February 2023; doi:10.1038/s41467-023-36488-y Quantum anomalous Hall junctions show great promise for advancing next-generation electronic circuits. Here, the authors demonstrate a scalable method for synthesizing heterostructures of magnetic topological insulators with regions of distinct Chern numbers and characterize the chiral interface modes that e
Histone variant H2A.Z modulates nucleosome dynamics to promote DNA accessibility
Nature Communications, Published online: 11 February 2023; doi:10.1038/s41467-023-36465-5 Here the authors show that H2A.Z histone variant incorporation reduces the nucleosomal barrier for transcription. Furthermore their simulations reveal that H2A.Z facilitates spontaneous DNA unwrapping from the histone octamer and enhances nucleosome gaping.
Structural insights into pathogenic mechanism of hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia caused by ectodysplasin A variants
Nature Communications, Published online: 11 February 2023; doi:10.1038/s41467-023-36367-6 EDA variants are associated with X-linked hypohidrotic dysplasia. Here, the authors report the crystal structure of the human EDA-EDAR complex, reveal the important role of this complex in ectodermal development and uncover the structural mechanism of disease-related mutations in EDA.
Evolution of protease activation and specificity via alpha-2-macroglobulin-mediated covalent capture
Nature Communications, Published online: 11 February 2023; doi:10.1038/s41467-023-36099-7 Custom proteases find applications as therapeutics, in research and in biotechnological applications. Here, the authors establish a protease selection system based on bacterial alpha-2-macroglobulin protease inhibitors and evolve staphylococcal proteases for increased activity and altered specificity.
