description: Mosapride (4-amino-5-chloro-2-ethoxy-N-[[4-[(4-fluorophenyl) methyl]-2-morpholinyl]-methyl] benzamide) is a potent agonist at gastrointestinal 5-HT4 receptors. Mosapride is an approved drug to treat several gastric diseases. We tested the hypothesis that mosapride also stimulates 5-HT4 receptors in the heart. Mosapride increased the force of contraction and beating rate in isolated atrial preparations from mice with cardiac overexpression of human 5-HT4-serotonin receptors (5-HT4-TG). However, it is inactive in wild-type mouse hearts (WT). Mosapride was less effective and potent than serotonin in raising the force of contraction or the beating rate in 5-HT4-TG. Only in the presence of cilostamide (1 μM), a phosphodiesterase III inhibitor, mosapride, and its primary metabolite time dependently raised the force of contraction under isometric conditions in isolated paced human right atrial preparations (HAP, obtained during open heart surgery). In HAP, mosapride (10 μM) reduced serotonin-induced increases in the force of contraction. Mosapride (10 µM) shifted the concentration–response curves to serotonin in HAP to the right. These data suggest that mosapride is a partial agonist at 5-HT4-serotonin receptors in HAP.

description: Shifting agriculture and anthropogenic fires are among the main causes of deforestation in the tropics. After fire and land abandonment, vast deforested areas are commonly dominated by the bracken fern Pteridium for long periods. Although forest regeneration in bracken-dominated areas is mainly hindered by dispersal limitation, little is known about the role of seed-disperser communities in slow forest succession. Our objective was to unravel the differences in the properties of the seed-disperser communities between forests and bracken-dominated areas to assess their role in dispersal limitation to foster ecological restoration. We compared species richness, diversity, abundance, and composition of seed-dispersing birds, bats, and medium and large terrestrial mammals between both habitats in a montane forest of Bolivia. The species richness and diversity were similar for bats and higher for birds in bracken-dominated areas than in the forest, but species composition was different between both habitats and groups. Although species composition was similar between both habitats for terrestrial mammals, the abundance was higher in the forest than in bracken-dominated areas. Differences in species composition of seed-dispersing birds and bats could be one of the main causes of dispersal limitation in forest regeneration in tropical bracken-dominated areas. The few shared species between both habitats could explain the low seed rain of animal-dispersed forest tree species in bracken-dominated areas and the consequent hindered forest regeneration. Future studies relevant to natural forest regeneration should focus on analyzing the effects of animal-attractants such as perches, artificial bat-roosts, and seedling transplants on disperser communities, seed dispersal effectiveness, and forest regeneration.

description: Kocourekia Bouček, 1966
Kocourekia Bouček, 1966: 376 –377; ♀. Type species: Kocourekia hirtula Bouček, 1966, by monotypy.
Diagnosis. Female. Flagellum spindle-like, with funicle 3-segmented and clava 3-segmented, without distinct terminal spine; funicular segments distinctly transverse; pedicel rather large in relation to the distinctly transverse F1. Head, including eyes, rather densely hairy; gena with or without malar sulcus; anterior margin of clypeus strongly bilobed. Pronotum moderately elongate; mesoscutum without a median line; scutellum without submedian lines. Pronotum and mesoscutum dorsally with numerous setae scattered over entire surface, not in rows; scutellum with numerous uniformly scattered setae over entire surface or with a bare median line. Axilla distinctly shifted forward, sharp angular anteriorly. Propodeum without carinae or plicae, with the rim of large spiracle exposed. Hypopygium extended beyond middle of gaster. Legs short, with fore and hind femora distinctly enlarged. Male. Unknown.
Remarks. We are uncertain whether the two strongly transverse, discoidal structures between the pedicel and F1 (Fig. 3) are true anelli. Further, the presence of CPS is difficult to discern using a stereomicroscope. This may be why these structures were not mentioned or illustrated for K. hirtula by Bouček (1966, fig. 6) or for K. clavigera by Bouček (1977, fig. 24). Further, which segments comprise the funicle and the clava is not clearly evident for K. fusis, as for K. clavigera (Bouček 1977, fig, 24), but we regard the first three flagellomeres (excluding any anellus) as the funicle and the subsequent three flagellomeres as the clava following the description of the antenna for the type species of the genus by Bouček (1966).

Diagnosis (female). Body dark brown; scape, pedicel and legs dark brown except for tarsi. Each funicular segment distinctly transverse; F1 about 1/2 length of F2. Gena without malar sulcus. Toruli inserted at or slightly below lower ocular line. Scutellum with numerous setae uniformly scattered over entire surface, without a bare median line.
Examined material. Paratypes of Kocourekia hirtula Bouček: 9♀, S. Moravia, Mutenice, 1958, M. Kocourek, ex. galls of Cynips kollari Hartig (NMP, NO. 26. 090–26. 098).
Biology and hosts. Presumably a gregarious parasitoid. The type specimens of K. hirtula (= K. debilis) were reared from an unknown host dwelling in galls of Andricus kollari (Hartig) (Hymenoptera, Cynipidae). Based on the possible close relationship of Kocourekia with Melittobia and the then likelihood they might have a similar biology, Bouček (1966) postulated that the unknown host of K. kirtula might be some aculeate Hymenoptera dwelling in galls. According to the records of K. debilis by Ratzeburg (1852), Graham (1991) presumed that the host of the type specimens might be some species of Pemphredoninae (Hymenoptera, Sphecidae).
Distribution. Europe (Bouček 1966, 1977), North America (LaSalle 1994).

description: Mammalian cells replicate ~ 3 × 109 base pairs per cell cycle. One of the key molecules that slows down the cell cycle and prevents excessive DNA damage upon DNA replication stress is the checkpoint kinase ataxia-telangiectasia-and-RAD3-related (ATR). Proteolysis-targeting-chimeras (PROTACs) are an innovative pharmacological invention to molecularly dissect, biologically understand, and therapeutically assess catalytic and non-catalytic functions of enzymes. This work defines the first-in-class ATR PROTAC, Abd110/Ramotac-1. It is derived from the ATR inhibitor VE-821 and recruits the E3 ubiquitin-ligase component cereblon to ATR. Abd110 eliminates ATR rapidly in human leukemic cells. This mechanism provokes DNA replication catastrophe and augments anti-leukemic effects of the clinically used ribonucleotide reductase-2 inhibitor hydroxyurea. Moreover, Abd110 is more effective than VE-821 against human primary leukemic cells but spares normal primary immune cells. CRISPR-Cas9 screens show that ATR is a dependency factor in 116 myeloid and lymphoid leukemia cells. Treatment of wild-type but not of cereblon knockout cells with Abd110 stalls their proliferation which verifies that ATR elimination is the primary mechanism of Abd110. Altogether, our findings demonstrate specific anti-leukemic effects of an ATR PROTAC.

description: Neelus cf. klisurensis Kováč & Papáč, 2010
Revision of Neelus specimens from southern Croatia revealed small difference compared to the population from Kosovo (Velika Klisura Cave). A strong, pointed rod-like macrochaetae below the thoracal sensory field in N. klisurensis from Velika Klisura Cave has widened tip in Croatian populations. Other diagnostic characters seem to be identical with the original description.

description: Although sulfurated polymers promise unique properties, their controlled synthesis, particularly when it comes to complex and functional architectures, remains challenging. Here, we show that the copolymerization of oxetane and phenyl isothiocyanate selectively yields polythioimidocarbonates as a new class of sulfur containing polymers, with narrow molecular weight distributions (Mn=5–80 kg/mol with Đ≤1.2; Mn,max=124 kg/mol) and high melting points of up to 181 °C. The method tolerates different substituent patterns on both the oxetane and the isothiocyanate. Self-nucleation experiments reveal that π-stacking of phenyl substituents, the presence of unsubstituted polymer backbones, and the kinetically controlled linkage selectivity are key factors in maximising melting points. The increased tolerance to macro-chain transfer agents and the controlled propagation allows the synthesis of double crystalline and amphiphilic diblock copolymers, which can be assembled into micellar- and worm-like structures with amorphous cores in water. In contrast, crystallization driven self-assembly in ethanol gives cylindrical micelles or platelets.

Xylophanes heinrichi Closs, 1917
Taxonomic Notes: Xylophanes heinrichi (Fig. 7 a) was described by Closs (1917) from a single male collected by E. Christeller on 11.???.1912 (the month is unclear on the label) from “Amazonas”. This is an imprecise type locality, as it could refer to parts of Brazil, Venezuela, Colombia and even Peru. Of these, Brazil is perhaps somewhat more likely than the others but this is still not at all certain. However, regardless of where in “Amazonas” the moth was captured, the locality would be within the distribution of what we infer here to be X. loelia. The holotype, preserved in the ZSM, is illustrated in Fig. 7 a. X. heinrichi is currently treated as a junior subjective synonym of Xylophanes loelia. Choerocampa loelia was described by Druce (1878) from an unstated number of specimens from Chiriquí, Panama, collected by Arcé. Only a single specimen with appropriate data and labels has been found in the BMNH and thus to stabilize the nomenclature, we hereby designate this specimen as the lectotype. The lectotype and its labels are illustrated in Figs 6 a and 6b.
Distribution: This species is widely distributed in Central and South America. It is known to us from southern Brazil and Paraguay, north through Peru, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Venezuela, Trinidad and Colombia, and into Central America, through Costa Rica and Nicaragua, to Belize.
Genetic variation: Intraspecific variation for the part of COI we sequenced is very low (Table 2; Fig. 13, clade #2).

Remarks. All three WAM specimens were retrieved from a midwater trawl, and are in poor condition. The only identifiable characters are the well-preserved coronal band and the protruding radial muscles. The other specimens are in slightly better shape, with the characteristic clover-shaped stomach and radial muscles plainly visible. Despite their relatively poor condition, the specimens match primary descriptions of A. wyvillei (Haeckel 1880; Mayer 1910; Kramp 1961; Larson 1986b).
Atolla wyvillei has been reported previously in the Tasman Sea by Stiasny (1931b) and in southwestern Australian waters by Southcott (1982), but this is the first confirmed report of it in waters off South Australia and tropical Western Australia.

Oriental fauna of Promicrogaster
In this paper we describe three new species from India, doubling the total number of species recorded for the Oriental. However, additional species from this region are expected to be found in the future, when specimens from other collections are studied and/or more comprehensive sampling is done. To provide a foundation for future studies, a key to all known six species from the Oriental region is provided here.

description: Lamellaxis cf. gracilis (Hutton, 1834)
(Figs. 49–50)
Remarks. Lamellaxis gracilis is an extraordinarily wide-ranging species, occurring from Central America and the Caribbean Islands to tropical and subtropical South America (Simone, 2006, and references therein). Except for antropic transportation, which has not been proved, the unusual widespread occurrence is difficult to explained. As some samples collected in the same place of remaining new described species are somewhat similar to L. gracilis, and as these subulinids still lack a comprehensive taxonomic revision, a conservative approach is given here identifying provisionally them as that species until further studies. The somewhat pointed protoconch is typical from this species, differing it from remaining Brazilian congeners. However, the Serra da Capivara specimens (Figs. 49–50) are slightly more elongated, and further uniformly sculptured than the normal fashion of the species (Simone, 2006: 184, fig. 669).
