In pursuit of the framework behind the biosphere: S-curves, self-assembly and the genetic entropy paradox.
TL;DR: The genetic entropy paradox is introduced, where the DNA increases in terms of internal information entropy, and yet this leads to increasing external entropy production, as increasingly more complicated structures and functions are produced in the form of new protein morphologies and metabolic pathways (again determined by the bioenergetic context).

Glycine Oligomerization by Pulsed Discharge Plasma over Aqueous Solution under Atmospheric Pressure
Yui Hayashi,Wahyu Diono,Noriharu Takada,Hideki Kanda,Motonobu Goto +4 more
- 17 Apr 2018
TL;DR: A nano-second pulsed discharge plasma under atmospheric pressure over an aqueous solution containing glycine was generated and the reaction products after the pulsed plasma treatments were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectroscopy.

Process ecology: stepping stones to biosemiosis
TL;DR: For example, the authors proposes a set of countervailing postulates that allow evolution to play forward and sets the stage for tripartite causalities, signs, and interpreters, the key elements of biosemiosis, to emerge naturally out of the interaction of chance with configurations of autocatalytic processes.

Cholinergic drugs as therapeutic tools in inflammatory diseases: participation of neuronal and non-neuronal cholinergic systems.
TL;DR: The participation of cholinergic system in inflammation is analyzed and the role of different muscarinic and nicotinic drugs that are being used to treat skin inflammatory disorders, asthma, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease as well as, intestinal inflammation and systemic inflammatory diseases are discussed to assess the potential application of these compounds as therapeutic tools.

A Production of Amino Acids Under Possible Primitive Earth Conditions
TL;DR: In this study, an apparatus was built to circulate CHI4, NH3, H2O, and H2 past an electric discharge, and the resulting mixture has been tested for amino acids by paper chromatography.
On the Evolution of Biochemical Syntheses
TL;DR: Evidence on the postulated gene-enzyme relationship is in most cases, however, still circumstantial; this is partly Because of technical difficulties involved in the study of synthetic, or free-energy consuming reactions in vitro, and partly because of the insufficiency of biochemical information on those reactions which happen to be susceptible of genetic analysis.
