Youn U.J., So J.E., Kim J.H., Han S.J., Park H., Kim C. & Yim J.H. (2018): Chemical constituents from the Antarctic lichen, Stereocaulon caespitosum, Biochemical Systematics and Ecology , 80: 73–75

A phytochemical study of the methanol extract of the Antarctic lichen Stereocaulon caespitosum Redgr. led to the isolation of a tridepside (1), two depsides (2 and 3), a montagnetol derivative (4), and four mono-phenolic compounds (5–8). The structures of these compounds were confirmed by 1D- and 2D-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiments, as well as by comparison with published values. This is the first phytochemical study of S. caespitosum. In particular, compounds 1, 3, 4, and 8 have been … Read more...

Young K.E., Bowker M.A., Reed S.C., Duniway M.C. & Belnap J. (2019): Temporal and abiotic fluctuations may be preventing successful rehabilitation of soil-stabilizing biocrust communities, Ecological Applications, 29(5): e01908 [13 p.]

Land degradation is a persistent ecological problem in many arid and semiarid systems globally (drylands hereafter). Most instances of dryland degradation include some form of soil disturbance and/or soil erosion, which can hinder vegetation establishment and reduce ecosystem productivity. To combat soil erosion, researchers have identified a need for rehabilitation of biological soil crusts (biocrusts), a globally relevant community of organisms aggregating the soil surface and building soil … Read more...

Young M.E. (1998): Algal and lichen growth following chemical stone cleaning, Journal of Architectural Conservation, 4(3): 48–58

Chemical cleaning methods have commonly been used to remove soiling from sandstone building facades. There has been anecdotal evidence suggesting that algal regrowth on facades can be increased following cleaning. It is shown here that both algal and lichen growths on sandstones may be substantially increased following chemical cleaning if the cleaning agents leave residues of phosphate (a nutrient normally in limited supply) in the sandstone. The growth of algae and lichens on samples of chemically-cleaned … Read more...

Yu H., Shen X., Liu D., Hong M. & Lu Y. (2019): The protective effects of β-sitosterol and vermicularin from Thamnolia vermicularis (Sw.) Ach. against skin aging in vitro, Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 91(4):e20181088 [11 p.]

Aged skin, featured with dryness and wrinkles, has received mounting attention due to its adverse influences on beauty. β-Sitosterol and vermicularin are two common active ingredients of Thamnolia vermicularis (Sw.) Ach., a traditional Chinese medicine, of which the anti-aging effect has been discovered. Their protective performance against skin aging was assayed by co-culturing with skin cells in this work. Results showed that β-sitosterol promoted the biosynthesis of hyaluronic acid by increasing … Read more...
