Neighboring Gulf Killifish (Fundulus grandis) Populations Differ in Their Plastic and Genetic Responses to Salinity Fluctuations

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Coastal development can alter the salinity fluctuations experienced by tidal creek systems. Understanding how resident organisms, such as the Gulf killifish, respond to these changes is critical, as development along the coastline is projected to triple in the coming decades.

Titin Is Present in the Elastic Tethers That Connect Separating Anaphase Chromosomes in Crane‐Fly Spermatocytes

Cytoskeleton, Volume 83, Issue 7, Page 496-514, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Elastic tethers connect telomeres of separating chromosomes in anaphase of animal cells. Immunofluorescence staining of titin in crane‐fly spermatocytes, using 4 different antibodies, shows that the giant elastic protein titin seems to be a component of mitotic tethers: titin “strands” extend between separating chromosomes, connecting their ...

Role of Latrophilin‐1 and Latrophilin‐2 as Downstream Effectors of Androgen Receptor Signaling in Urothelial Tumorigenesis

Cancer Reports, Volume 9, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Accumulating evidence indicates a critical role of androgen receptor (AR) in the pathogenesis of male‐dominant urothelial cancer. Meanwhile, the functions of latrophilins (LPHNs), a subfamily of G protein‐coupled receptors, remain largely uncharacterized in neoplastic conditions.
