From biology to biotechnology: Host‐regulation factors from parasitoid wasps are a source of bioactive molecules with translational potential

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Parasitoid wasps deploy maternal and embryonic factors to reprogramme host physiology. Venom, calyx fluid, polydnaviruses, teratocytes and larval secretions act in a coordinated, compartmentalised manner. Host‐regulation factors are promising sources of insecticidal, antimicrobial and bioinspired translational molecules.

Genome assembly of Elcysma westwoodi provides insights into host‐plant cyanogenic glucoside detoxification and chemical defence gene evolution

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
A chromosome‐level genome of Elcysma westwoodi was assembled. The genome encodes 272 detoxification‐related genes. A single‐copy bCAS was retained for cyanide detoxification. CYP405A and CYP332A were recruited into cyanogenic defence evolution. UGT33A retained a conserved GT‐B fold and catalytic domains.

Hypercapnia Induces Mitochondrial Adaptations and Alters Glutamine Metabolism to Drive a Distinct Metabolic Phenotype in Monocytes

Immunology &Cell Biology, EarlyView.
Elevated CO2 (hypercapnia) is a feature of serious lung diseases, for example COPD and contributes to poor patient prognosis through modulation of immune cell function. Here we employ state‐of‐the art metabolomic and isotope tracing approaches to reveal CO2‐dependent mitochondrial alterations linked to suppressed ATP, proline and glutamate levels in ...

Interleukin‐12: Central Roles in Immune Regulation and Disease Therapy

Immunology &Cell Biology, EarlyView.
IL‐12 levels are tightly regulated to balance effective protective immunity against infections and cancer with the risk of excessive inflammation and autoimmune disease. Both insufficient and excessive IL‐12 activity can therefore be detrimental, highlighting the importance of precisely controlling its production and signaling. ABSTRACT Interleukin‐12 (

Genes, fish and fisheries: translating science into policy

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The 2024 Annual Symposium of the Fisheries Society of the British Isles reviewed the burgeoning impact of ‘omics’ technologies on fish ecology, management and forecasting. As with life sciences more generally, major advances in speed, cost‐effectiveness and breadth of applications in ‘omics’ has had profound societal and environmental impacts.

Long‐term crucian carp (Carassius carassius) resilience to duckweed (Lemnaceae) dominance in a small eastern English pond

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Successful scientifically informed fish conservation requires a good knowledge of how fishes have and will be affected by multiple stresses over the decadal‐centennial timescales relevant to real‐life fish‐environment responses. By combining palaeoecological and monitoring data (regular sampling over 16 years), we studied the long‐term ...
