    Description: Biodiversity is rapidly declining, and this may negatively affect ecosystem processes, including economically important ecosystem services. Previous studies have shown that biodiversity has positive effects on organisms and processes across trophic levels. However, only a few studies have so far incorporated an explicit food-web perspective. In an eight-year biodiversity experiment, we studied an unprecedented range of above- and below-ground organisms and multitrophic interactions. A multitrophic data set originating from a single long-term experiment allows mechanistic insights that would not be gained from meta-analysis of different experiments. Here we show that plant diversity effects dampen with increasing trophic level and degree of omnivory. This was true both for abundance and species richness of organisms. Furthermore, we present comprehensive above-ground/below-ground biodiversity food webs. Both above ground and below ground, herbivores responded more strongly to changes in plant diversity than did carnivores or omnivores. Density and richness of carnivorous taxa was independent of vegetation structure. Below-ground responses to plant diversity were consistently weaker than above-ground responses. Responses to increasing plant diversity were generally positive, but were negative for biological invasion, pathogen infestation and hyperparasitism. Our results suggest that plant diversity has strong bottom-up effects on multitrophic interaction networks, with particularly strong effects on lower trophic levels. Effects on higher trophic levels are indirectly mediated through bottom-up trophic cascades.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Scherber, Christoph -- Eisenhauer, Nico -- Weisser, Wolfgang W -- Schmid, Bernhard -- Voigt, Winfried -- Fischer, Markus -- Schulze, Ernst-Detlef -- Roscher, Christiane -- Weigelt, Alexandra -- Allan, Eric -- Bessler, Holger -- Bonkowski, Michael -- Buchmann, Nina -- Buscot, Francois -- Clement, Lars W -- Ebeling, Anne -- Engels, Christof -- Halle, Stefan -- Kertscher, Ilona -- Klein, Alexandra-Maria -- Koller, Robert -- Konig, Stephan -- Kowalski, Esther -- Kummer, Volker -- Kuu, Annely -- Lange, Markus -- Lauterbach, Dirk -- Middelhoff, Cornelius -- Migunova, Varvara D -- Milcu, Alexandru -- Muller, Ramona -- Partsch, Stephan -- Petermann, Jana S -- Renker, Carsten -- Rottstock, Tanja -- Sabais, Alexander -- Scheu, Stefan -- Schumacher, Jens -- Temperton, Vicky M -- Tscharntke, Teja -- England -- Nature. 2010 Nov 25;468(7323):553-6. doi: 10.1038/nature09492.

    Description: Old-growth forests remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere at rates that vary with climate and nitrogen deposition. The sequestered carbon dioxide is stored in live woody tissues and slowly decomposing organic matter in litter and soil. Old-growth forests therefore serve as a global carbon dioxide sink, but they are not protected by international treaties, because it is generally thought that ageing forests cease to accumulate carbon. Here we report a search of literature and databases for forest carbon-flux estimates. We find that in forests between 15 and 800 years of age, net ecosystem productivity (the net carbon balance of the forest including soils) is usually positive. Our results demonstrate that old-growth forests can continue to accumulate carbon, contrary to the long-standing view that they are carbon neutral. Over 30 per cent of the global forest area is unmanaged primary forest, and this area contains the remaining old-growth forests. Half of the primary forests (6 x 10(8) hectares) are located in the boreal and temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere. On the basis of our analysis, these forests alone sequester about 1.3 +/- 0.5 gigatonnes of carbon per year. Thus, our findings suggest that 15 per cent of the global forest area, which is currently not considered when offsetting increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations, provides at least 10 per cent of the global net ecosystem productivity. Old-growth forests accumulate carbon for centuries and contain large quantities of it. We expect, however, that much of this carbon, even soil carbon, will move back to the atmosphere if these forests are disturbed.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Luyssaert, Sebastiaan -- Schulze, E-Detlef -- Borner, Annett -- Knohl, Alexander -- Hessenmoller, Dominik -- Law, Beverly E -- Ciais, Philippe -- Grace, John -- England -- Nature. 2008 Sep 11;455(7210):213-5. doi: 10.1038/nature07276.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biology, University of Antwerp, 2610 Wilrijk, Belgium. sebastiaan.luyssaert@ua.ac.be〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18784722" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The highly symmetric pyruvate dehydrogenase multienzyme complexes have molecular masses ranging from 5 to 10 million daltons. They consist of numerous copies of three different enzymes: pyruvate dehydrogenase, dihydrolipoyl transacetylase, and lipoamide dehydrogenase. The three-dimensional crystal structure of the catalytic domain of Azotobacter vinelandii dihydrolipoyl transacetylase has been determined at 2.6 angstrom (A) resolution. Eight trimers assemble as a hollow truncated cube with an edge of 125 A, forming the core of the multienzyme complex. Coenzyme A must enter the 29 A long active site channel from the inside of the cube, and lipoamide must enter from the outside. The trimer of the catalytic domain of dihydrolipoyl transacetylase has a topology identical to chloramphenicol acetyl transferase. The atomic structure of the 24-subunit cube core provides a framework for understanding all pyruvate dehydrogenase and related multienzyme complexes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Mattevi, A -- Obmolova, G -- Schulze, E -- Kalk, K H -- Westphal, A H -- de Kok, A -- Hol, W G -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1992 Mar 20;255(5051):1544-50.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, University of Groningen, The Netherlands.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1549782" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The three-dimensional structure of a specific antibody (Fab 17/9) to a peptide immunogen from influenza virus hemagglutinin [HA1(75-110)] and two independent crystal complexes of this antibody with bound peptide (TyrP100-LeuP108) have been determined by x-ray crystallographic techniques at 2.0 A, 2.9 A, and 3.1 A resolution, respectively. The nonapeptide antigen assumes a type I beta turn in the antibody combining site and interacts primarily with the Fab hypervariable loops L3, H2, and H3. Comparison of the bound and unbound Fab structures shows that a major rearrangement in the H3 loop accompanies antigen binding. This conformational change results in the creation of a binding pocket for the beta turn of the peptide, allowing TyrP105 to be accommodated. The conformation of the peptide bound to the antibody shows similarity to its cognate sequence in the HA1, suggesting a possible mechanism for the cross-reactivity of this Fab with monomeric hemagglutinin. The structures of the free and antigen bound antibodies demonstrate the flexibility of the antibody combining site and provide an example of induced fit as a mechanism for antibody-antigen recognition.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rini, J M -- Schulze-Gahmen, U -- Wilson, I A -- AI-23498/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1992 Feb 21;255(5047):959-65.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology, Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, CA 92037.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1546293" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Platelets are generated from megakaryocytes (MKs) in mammalian bone marrow (BM) by mechanisms that remain poorly understood. Here we describe the use of multiphoton intravital microscopy in intact BM to visualize platelet generation in mice. MKs were observed as sessile cells that extended dynamic proplatelet-like protrusions into microvessels. These intravascular extensions appeared to be sheared from their transendothelial stems by flowing blood, resulting in the appearance of proplatelets in peripheral blood. In vitro, proplatelet production from differentiating MKs was enhanced by fluid shear. These results confirm the concept of proplatelet formation in vivo and are consistent with the possibility that blood flow-induced hydrodynamic shear stress is a biophysical determinant of thrombopoiesis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Junt, Tobias -- Schulze, Harald -- Chen, Zhao -- Massberg, Steffen -- Goerge, Tobias -- Krueger, Andreas -- Wagner, Denisa D -- Graf, Thomas -- Italiano, Joseph E Jr -- Shivdasani, Ramesh A -- von Andrian, Ulrich H -- HL068130/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL56949/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL63143/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2007 Sep 21;317(5845):1767-70.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Immune Disease Institute and Department of Pathology, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17885137" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Cancer metabolism has received a substantial amount of interest over the past decade. The advances in analytical tools have, along with the rapid progress of cancer genomics, generated an increasingly complex understanding of metabolic reprogramming in cancer. As numerous connections between oncogenic signalling pathways and metabolic activities emerge, the importance of metabolic reprogramming in cancer is being increasingly recognized. The identification of metabolic weaknesses of cancer cells has been used to create strategies for treating cancer, but there are still challenges to be faced in bringing the drugs that target cancer metabolism to the clinic.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Schulze, Almut -- Harris, Adrian L -- 11359/Cancer Research UK/United Kingdom -- NF-SI-0611-10163/Department of Health/United Kingdom -- Cancer Research UK/United Kingdom -- England -- Nature. 2012 Nov 15;491(7424):364-73. doi: 10.1038/nature11706.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Gene Expression Analysis Laboratory, Cancer Research UK, London Research Institute, 44 Lincoln's Inn Fields, London WC2A 3LY, UK. almut.schulze@cancer.org.uk〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23151579" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Cancer control by adaptive immunity involves a number of defined death and clearance mechanisms. However, efficient inhibition of exponential cancer growth by T cells and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) requires additional undefined mechanisms that arrest cancer cell proliferation. Here we show that the combined action of the T-helper-1-cell cytokines IFN-gamma and tumour necrosis factor (TNF) directly induces permanent growth arrest in cancers. To safely separate senescence induced by tumour immunity from oncogene-induced senescence, we used a mouse model in which the Simian virus 40 large T antigen (Tag) expressed under the control of the rat insulin promoter creates tumours by attenuating p53- and Rb-mediated cell cycle control. When combined, IFN-gamma and TNF drive Tag-expressing cancers into senescence by inducing permanent growth arrest in G1/G0, activation of p16INK4a (also known as CDKN2A), and downstream Rb hypophosphorylation at serine 795. This cytokine-induced senescence strictly requires STAT1 and TNFR1 (also known as TNFRSF1A) signalling in addition to p16INK4a. In vivo, Tag-specific T-helper 1 cells permanently arrest Tag-expressing cancers by inducing IFN-gamma- and TNFR1-dependent senescence. Conversely, Tnfr1(-/-)Tag-expressing cancers resist cytokine-induced senescence and grow aggressively, even in TNFR1-expressing hosts. Finally, as IFN-gamma and TNF induce senescence in numerous murine and human cancers, this may be a general mechanism for arresting cancer progression.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Braumuller, Heidi -- Wieder, Thomas -- Brenner, Ellen -- Assmann, Sonja -- Hahn, Matthias -- Alkhaled, Mohammed -- Schilbach, Karin -- Essmann, Frank -- Kneilling, Manfred -- Griessinger, Christoph -- Ranta, Felicia -- Ullrich, Susanne -- Mocikat, Ralph -- Braungart, Kilian -- Mehra, Tarun -- Fehrenbacher, Birgit -- Berdel, Julia -- Niessner, Heike -- Meier, Friedegund -- van den Broek, Maries -- Haring, Hans-Ulrich -- Handgretinger, Rupert -- Quintanilla-Martinez, Leticia -- Fend, Falko -- Pesic, Marina -- Bauer, Jurgen -- Zender, Lars -- Schaller, Martin -- Schulze-Osthoff, Klaus -- Rocken, Martin -- England -- Nature. 2013 Feb 21;494(7437):361-5. doi: 10.1038/nature11824.
