    Description: Tellnes LG, Ganne-Chedeville C, Dias A, Dolezal F, Hill C, Zea Escamilla E COMPARATIVE ASSESSMENT FOR BIOGENIC CARBON ACCOUNTING METHODS IN CARBON FOOTPRINT OF PRODUCTS: A REVIEW STUDY FOR CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS BASED ON FOREST PRODUCTS Abstract : The forest and building sector is of major importance in climate change mitigation and therefore construction materials based on forest products are of great interest. While energy efficiency has had a large focus in climate change mitigation in the building sector, the carbon footprint of the construction material is gaining relevance. The carbon footprint of construction materials can vary greatly from one type to another, the building sector is consequently demanding documentation of the carbon footprint of the materials used. Using an environmental product declaration (EPD) is an objective and standardised solution for communicating the environmental impacts of construction products and especially their carbon footprint. Nevertheless, it is challenging to include the features of forest products as pools of carbon dioxide. There is currently a focus on research into methods for the accounting of sequestered atmospheric carbon dioxide and also implementation of these methods into technical standards. This paper reviews the recent research and technical standards in this field to promote a common understanding and to propose requirements for additional information to be included in EPDs of forest-based products. The main findings show the need for reporting the contribution of biogenic carbon to the total on greenhouse gas emissions and removals over the product’s lifecycle. In order to facilitate the implementation of more advanced methods from research, the EPD should also include more detailed information of the wood used, in particular species and origin.

    beta-catenin mediates stress resilience through Dicer1/microRNA regulation (2014)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-11-11
    Description: beta-catenin is a multi-functional protein that has an important role in the mature central nervous system; its dysfunction has been implicated in several neuropsychiatric disorders, including depression. Here we show that in mice beta-catenin mediates pro-resilient and anxiolytic effects in the nucleus accumbens, a key brain reward region, an effect mediated by D2-type medium spiny neurons. Using genome-wide beta-catenin enrichment mapping, we identify Dicer1-important in small RNA (for example, microRNA) biogenesis--as a beta-catenin target gene that mediates resilience. Small RNA profiling after excising beta-catenin from nucleus accumbens in the context of chronic stress reveals beta-catenin-dependent microRNA regulation associated with resilience. Together, these findings establish beta-catenin as a critical regulator in the development of behavioural resilience, activating a network that includes Dicer1 and downstream microRNAs. We thus present a foundation for the development of novel therapeutic targets to promote stress resilience.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4257892/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4257892/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Dias, Caroline -- Feng, Jian -- Sun, Haosheng -- Shao, Ning Yi -- Mazei-Robison, Michelle S -- Damez-Werno, Diane -- Scobie, Kimberly -- Bagot, Rosemary -- LaBonte, Benoit -- Ribeiro, Efrain -- Liu, XiaoChuan -- Kennedy, Pamela -- Vialou, Vincent -- Ferguson, Deveroux -- Pena, Catherine -- Calipari, Erin S -- Koo, Ja Wook -- Mouzon, Ezekiell -- Ghose, Subroto -- Tamminga, Carol -- Neve, Rachael -- Shen, Li -- Nestler, Eric J -- P50 MH096890/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R00 MH094405/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2014 Dec 4;516(7529):51-5. doi: 10.1038/nature13976.
