A Dual-Modified Chitosan-Derived Silica Composite Aerogel with Simultaneous Improvement of Mechanical, Flame Retardancy, and Thermal Insulation Properties Open
Energy-efficient buildings require materials with low thermal conductivity, and high fire resistance and mechanical properties. Traditional chitosan aerogel is limited by its poor fire resistance and silica aerogel is either brittle or dis…

A symbiotic gene stimulates aggressive behavior favoring the survival of parasitized caterpillars Open
Animals often exhibit increased aggression in response to starvation, while parasites often manipulate host behavior. In contrast, underlying molecular mechanisms for these behavioral changes are mostly unknown. The diamondback moth, Plute…

The elucidation of the anti-inflammatory mechanism of EMO in rheumatoid arthritis through an integrative approach combining bioinformatics and experimental verification Open
Introduction: Emodin (EMO), a natural derivative of the anthraquinone family mainly extracted from rhubarb (Rheum palmatum), has previously been demonstrated to possess superior anti-inflammatory properties from a single target or pathway.…

Parasite reliance on its host gut microbiota for nutrition and survival Open
Studying the microbial symbionts of eukaryotic hosts has revealed a range of interactions that benefit host biology. Most eukaryotes are also infected by parasites that adversely affect host biology for their own benefit. However, it is la…

Search performance and octopamine neuronal signaling mediate parasitoid induced changes in Drosophila oviposition behavior Open
Making the appropriate responses to predation risk is essential for the survival of an organism; however, the underlying mechanisms are still largely unknown. Here, we find that Drosophila has evolved an adaptive strategy to manage the thr…

The Dual Functions of a Bracovirus C-Type Lectin in Caterpillar Immune Response Manipulation Open
Parasitoids are widespread in natural ecosystems and normally equipped with diverse viral factors to defeat host immune responses. On the other hand, parasitoids can enhance the antibacterial abilities and improve the hypoimmunity traits o…

Symbiotic bracovirus of a parasite manipulates host lipid metabolism via tachykinin signaling Open
Parasites alter host energy homeostasis for their own development, but the mechanisms underlying this phenomenon remain largely unknown. Here, we show that Cotesia vestalis , an endoparasitic wasp of Plutella xylostella larvae, stimulates …

The Effects of Pay Satisfaction on Job Satisfaction and Turnover Intention Open
본 연구는 중국기업 구성원이 지각하는 임금만족이 개인의 성과에 미치는 영향과 상사-부하간 관계(LMX)의 조절효과를 실증적으로 분석하였다. 본 연구는 임금만족, LMX, 직무만족 및 이직의도 간의 관계를 파악함으로써 전략적인 인사정책 수립에 유용한 이론적 관리적 시사점의 제시를 목적으로 하였다. 실증연구 결과, 중국기업의 근로자는 임금에 대해 만족할수록 직무만족 역시 높아지는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 근로자들의 직무만…
