Transcriptomic prey‐capture responses in convergently evolved carnivorous pitcher plants
New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 5, Page 2559-2573, March 2026.Summary The Australian pitcher plant Cephalotus and the Asian pitcher plant Nepenthes exhibit striking morphological and functional similarities, serving as compelling examples of convergent evolution. Although trapping pitchers in both lineages represent some of the most elaborate leaf structures in angiosperms, it remains unknown whether their ...

Aspartic acid supplementation ameliorates symptoms of diabetic kidney disease in mice
FEBS Open Bio, 2020 Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is among the most common and serious complications of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. In this study, we used KK/Ta‐Ins2Akita (KK‐Akita) mice as a model of DKD and KK/Ta (KK) mice as controls to identify novel factors ...

Aging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 2, February 2026.This study analyzed gut microbiota in older adults with and without Frailty Syndrome by 16S rRNA gene sequencing and metagenomics. Frailty was associated with altered microbial composition, metabolic functions, and increased antimicrobial resistance, whereas non‐frail individuals showed healthier profiles.
