Global assessment in the effect of urban built-up environment on cooling efficiency of green spaces

Green space cooling efficiency and its nonlinear links to built-up density and building height vary by income groups, as revealed by an analysis of multiple data from 1113 global built-up areas with generalized additive models.

A small molecule promotes cartilage extracellular matrix generation and inhibits osteoarthritis development

Loss of cartilage tissue is a hallmark of osteoarthritis. Here the authors show that BNTA, a small molecule identified in a chemical screen, promotes ECM generation in human osteoarthritic chondrocytes and cartilage explants, and suppresses pathology in a rat model of osteoarthritis.

Genomic insights into local adaptation and future climate-induced vulnerability of a keystone forest tree in East Asia

Assessment of population vulnerability and adaptive capacity under climate change is crucial for informing conservation strategies. Sang et al. assemble a reference genome for Populus koreana and combine population genomics and modelling to predict spatiotemporal responses to climate change.

ROS-induced R loops trigger a transcription-coupled but BRCA1/2-independent homologous recombination pathway through CSB

Transcription-coupled homologous recombination (TC-HR) is activated by reactive oxygen species-induced DNA damage to maintain transcribed genome stability. The authors demonstrate that R loops are induced by ROS at the transcribed genome, triggering a CSB-RAD52- dependent but BRCA1/2-independent RAD51 loading for repair.

Immunoregulatory mechanisms of mesenchymal stem and stromal cells in inflammatory diseases

Mesenchymal stem or stromal cells (MSCs) have attracted much attention for their ability to regulate inflammatory processes. Here, Shi et al. discuss current understanding of the immunomodulatory mechanisms of MSCs and issues related to their therapeutic application.
