Global trend of food‐induced anaphylaxis: Up to date

open access: yesPediatric Allergy and Immunology, Volume 36, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract This review examines the evolving global landscape of food‐induced anaphylaxis (FIA), revealing critical epidemiological shifts that challenge traditional allergen management paradigms. As the leading cause of anaphylaxis worldwide, FIA demonstrates striking geographic, age‐specific, and temporal patterns that reflect broader changes in ...

Carryover Effects of Thermal Conditions on Tick Survival, Behavior, and Simulated Detectability

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
Recent thermal history affects the abundance and behavior of adult Amblyomma americanum. Thermal responses impacted simulated tick detection through combined effects on movement and mortality. ABSTRACT Carryover effects occur when environmental history of an organism influences its behavior, fitness, and population dynamics.

Extracellular Vesicles in Arthropods: Biogenesis, Functions, Isolation Methods and Applications

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane‐bound nanoparticles secreted by cells that are involved in multiple forms of intercellular communication and show promising potential for biotechnological applications. Arthropod‐derived EV research remains relatively fragmented in contrast to the extensively studied mammalian EV field. In this review,
