Porphyromonas gingivalis Type 9 Secretion System Promotes Dysregulation of Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Plasticity With Perturbed TGF‐β/Smad Signaling

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 5, October 2025.
An intact type 9 secretion system (T9SS) is required for Porphyromonas gingivalis‐mediated dysregulation of aortic smooth muscle cell migration and proliferation. During infection, T9SS also enhanced phosphorylation of multiple sites on transcription factor Smad3 that is implicated in pathologic cell responses to TGF‐β/Smad signaling.

Enhanced Radiation at Aviation Altitudes and Plasmaspheric Hiss Waves—A Time Shift Analysis

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Increased radiation levels in Earth's atmosphere can present significant risks to airline pilots, passengers, and commercial space travelers. Recent findings have revealed a strong statistical link between radiation dose rates detected at aviation altitudes (>9 ${ >} 9$km) and plasmaspheric hiss wave power observed along the same magnetic ...

Impacts of Bar-driven Shear and Shocks on Star Formation

The Astrophysical Journal
Bars drive gas inflow. As the gas flows inward, shocks and shear occur along the bar dust lanes. Such shocks and shear can affect the star formation (SF) and change the gas properties.

Luminosities of Barred and Unbarred S0 Galaxies

, 2012
Lenticular galaxies with M_B < -21.5 are almost exclusively unbarred, whereas both barred and unbarred objects occur at fainter luminosity levels. This effect is observed both for objects classified in blue light, and for those that were classified in ...

A Chromosome Inversion Creates a Supergene for Sex and Colour in Lake Malawi Cichlids

Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 20, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Cichlid fishes have the highest rates of evolutionary turnover of sex chromosomes among vertebrates. Many large structural polymorphisms in the radiation of cichlids in Lake Malawi are associated with sex chromosomes and may also carry adaptive variation.

Identification and Analysis of Galactic Bars in DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys

The Astrophysical Journal
We present a comprehensive study of bar structures in the local universe using data from the DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys. Through isophotal analysis of 232,142 galaxies, we identify bars and classify them into strong and weak categories based on ...

Arabidopsis thaliana FANCONI ANAEMIA I (FANCI) has roles in the repair of interstrand crosslinks and CRISPR‐Cas9 induced DNA double strand breaks

The Plant Journal, Volume 124, Issue 2, October 2025.
SUMMARY DNA repair is crucial for genome stability, in particular for plants which are exposed to high levels of damage arising from UV irradiation, soil pollutants and reactive oxygen species. Damage that affects both strands of the DNA duplex is harder to repair due to both the lack of a template strand and the potential for physical separation of ...
