Male reproductive system in stenopodidean shrimps: Unveiling basal reproductive traits in shrimp‐like Pleocyemata (Stenopodidae and Spongicolidae)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Stenopodidea represents one of the basal lineages within Pleocyemata, yet the male reproductive system (MRS) of this group remains poorly understood, with limited information available regarding its morphology and function. This study provides the first detailed description of the MRS in four stenopodidean shrimp species from two families ...

RNA‐centric world of retroviruses: unravelling the molecular strategies of genomic RNA packaging

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Retroviruses constitute a unique group of RNA viruses that have profoundly influenced both evolutionary trajectories and biomedical research. Their ability to reverse transcribe and integrate into host genomes has shaped genomic architecture across species and contributed to our understanding of oncogenes, gene regulation, and RNA biology ...

Hematological Inflammation Indices Are Associated With Active Uveitis in Ankylosing Spondylitis

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Hematological inflammation indices reflect the systemic inflammatory burden in ankylosing spondylitis. Patients with active uveitis exhibit a distinct pro‐inflammatory profile characterised by increased NLR, PLR, SII, SIRI, and AISI, along with decreased HALP and CALLY scores.
