Local climate action from the middle-out: the social potential of craft guilds to facilitate low-carbon installations in Germany by Wehden, S, Janda, KB, Jansen, J, Creutzig, F

“…Situated between policymaking and on-the-ground installation, guilds have unique agency and capacity qualities deriving from preferential access to the local implementers of low-carbon transitions and legal commissions with critical tasks including training, informing, and associating installers. However, we find that guilds suffer from resource constraints, membership declines, and a lack of deliberate activation. …”

Interferon-α promotes HLA-B-restricted presentation of conventional and alternative antigens in human pancreatic β-cells by Carré, A, Samassa, F, Zhou, Z, Perez-Hernandez, J, Lekka, C, Manganaro, A, Oshima, M, Liao, H, Parker, R, Nicastri, A, Brandao, B, Colli, ML, Eizirik, DL, Aluri, J, Patel, D, Göransson, M, Burgos Morales, O, Anderson, A, Landry, L, Kobaisi, F, Scharfmann, R, Marselli, L, Marchetti, P, You, S, Ternette, N

“…Here we characterize the HLA-I antigen presentation in resting and IFN-α-exposed β-cells and find that IFN-α increases HLA-I expression and expands peptide repertoire to those derived from alternative mRNA splicing, protein cis-splicing and post-translational modifications. …”

Experimentation in wicked situations: how activists construct pragmatic action frames by Savaget, P, Roulet, T, Ventresca, M

“…This pragmatic action frame prompts them to initiate pilot experiments that involve trial-and-error and collective learning, and that sometimes scaffold into cumulative small wins. Reflecting on our findings, we build a model of how pragmatic action frames fuel distributed possibilities to experiment in wicked situations. …”

The origin of cultivated mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana L. var. mangostana): critical assessments and an evolutionary-ecological perspective by Yao, T. L., Nazre, M., McKey, D., Jalonen, R., Duminil, J.

Financial development, institutions, and economic growth nexus: A spatial econometrics analysis using geographical and institutional proximities by Ahmad, Mahyudin, Law, Siong Hook

“…However, the growth-effect of FD becomes negative beyond a certain threshold. We also find significant positive spatial lag growth in the model, indicating the presence of indirect spillover effects of FD and institutions on the growth of neighbouring countries in both geographical and institutional spheres. …”

Argon-plasma-controlled optical reset in the SiO2/Cu filamentary resistive memory stack by Kawashima, T., Yew, K. S., Kyuno, K., Zhou, Yu, Ang, Diing Shenp, Zhang, H. Z.

“…These vacancies in turn adsorb water molecules, which act as counter anions (OH-) promoting the migration of Cu cations into the oxide and forming a more complete Cu filament that is less responsive to light. The finding points to the prospect of a control over the optical resistance reset effect by a simple surface treatment step.…”

C–H activation and nucleophilic substitution in a photochemically generated high valent iron complex by Lim, Jia Hui, Engelmann, Xenia, Corby, Sacha, Ganguly, Rakesh, Ray, Kallol, Soo, Han Sen

“…Furthermore, the nucleophilic aromatic halogenation reaction mediated by (TAML˙+)FeIII represents a novel domain for high-valent metal reactivity and highlights the possible intramolecular ligand or substrate modification pathways under highly oxidising conditions. Our findings therefore shine light on high-valent metal oxidants based on TAMLs and other potential non-innocent ligands and open new avenues for oxidation catalyst design.…”
