Modeling Obesity and Weight Loss in Mice Using Novel AAV Approaches
Obesity, Volume 34, Issue 2, Page 417-427, February 2026.ABSTRACT Objective This study utilized AAV gene delivery as an approach to induce and reverse hyperphagia in mice. We hypothesized that the delivery of orexigenic neuropeptides to the brain via AAV precipitates obesity and that the implementation of genetic switches to reverse transgene expression would elicit weight loss.

Forest structure and connectivity drive the functional recovery of seed rain
Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 2, February 2026.Local forest structure and landscape‐scale connectivity shape distinct but complementary pathways of the functional recovery of seed rain in tropical forests. Structural complexity promotes functionally diverse plant–frugivore interactions locally, while connectivity facilitates the arrival of late‐successional seeds from external sources.
