Extinction risk and conservation gaps for Aloe (Asphodelaceae) in the Horn of Africa (2019)
Journal Article
Bachman, S. P., Wilkin, P., Reader, T., Field, R., Weber, O., Nordal, I., & Demissew, S. (2020). Extinction risk and conservation gaps for Aloe (Asphodelaceae) in the Horn of Africa. Biodiversity and Conservation, 29(1), 77–98. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10531-019-01870-0

Identification of conservation priorities is essential for conservation planning, especially as the biodiversity crisis develops. We aimed to support conservation prioritisation by addressing knowledge gaps for the genus Aloe in the Horn of Africa. S...

The aim of this study was to determine thechronic (≥72h post-exercise) effects of high intensity interval training (HIIT) on postprandial lipaemia and metabolic markers in healthy volunteers. Eight physically active young males (Mean ± SD: age 22 ± 3... Read More about Chronic effects of high-intensity interval training on postprandial lipemia in healthy men.

Comorbid diabetes results in immune dysregulation and enhanced disease severity following MERS-CoV infection (2019)
Journal Article
Kulcsar, K. A., Coleman, C. M., Beck, S. E., & Frieman, M. B. (2019). Comorbid diabetes results in immune dysregulation and enhanced disease severity following MERS-CoV infection. JCI insight, 4(20), 1-18. https://doi.org/10.1172/jci.insight.131774

Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) emerged in 2012 in Saudi Arabia and has caused over 2400 cases and more than 800 deaths. Epidemiological studies identified diabetes as the primary comorbidity associated with severe or lethal M...

Comparative Docking to Distinct G Protein–Coupled Receptor Conformations Exclusively Yields Ligands with Agonist Efficacy (2019)
Journal Article
Scharf, M. M., Bünemann, M., Baker, J. G., & Kolb, P. (2019). Comparative Docking to Distinct G Protein–Coupled Receptor Conformations Exclusively Yields Ligands with Agonist Efficacy. Molecular Pharmacology, 96(6), 851-861. https://doi.org/10.1124/mol.119.117515

G protein-coupled receptors exist in a whole spectrum of conformations which are stabilised by the binding of ligands with different efficacy or intracellular effector proteins. Here, we investigate whether three-dimensional structures of receptor co...
