Transcriptional responses of Aedes aegypti chemosensory tissues in response to volatile DEET and citronella oil

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Aedes aegypti females were significantly repelled by both volatile DEET and citronella oil in comparison to control (ethanol‐exposed) mosquitoes. Global gene expression changes were largest in the mosquito mouthparts, with notable downregulation of the three subunits comprising the mosquito CO2 receptor (Gr1, 2 and 3).

Advances in high‐resolution cryo‐volume electron microscopy (cvEM) imaging for unicellular and multicellular organisms

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Cryo‐Focused Ion Beam Scanning Electron Microscopy (cryoFIB‐SEM) using samples fixed by high‐pressure freezing uniquely enables high‐resolution cryo‐volume Electron Microscope (cvEM) images of cell ultrastructure to be obtained from whole cells and complex tissues in their near native state. As the freezing process also preserves fluorescence,

Agnosticism about artificial consciousness

Mind &Language, EarlyView.
Could an AI have conscious experiences? Answers to this question should be based not on intuition, dogma or speculation but on solid scientific evidence. However, I argue such evidence is hard to come by and that the only justifiable stance is agnosticism.

Si elegans: a computational model of C. elegans muscle response to light

It has long been the goal of computational neuroscientists to understand animal nervous systems, but their vast complexity has made it very difficult to fully understand even basic functions such as movement. The C.

Making fish oils in plants: from alpha to omega

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of the biosynthetic pathway for the synthesis of omega‐3 long‐chain polyunsaturated fatty acids. The sequential transgene‐encoded activities required to convert endogenous fatty acids to the longer chain polyunsaturated forms of eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid are shown in red.

Systemic and Local Regulation of Root Growth by Vascular Trehalose 6‐Phosphate is Correlated With Re‐allocation of Primary Metabolites Between Shoots and Roots

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Trehalose 6‐phoshpate (Tre6P) is a key signalling molecule that reflects carbon status and integrates it with developmental decision making. Tre6P has been demonstrated to regulate various developmental processes, including vegetative growth, shoot branching, flowering, and root branching.

Exploring natural sunscreens: UVB protection and antioxidant properties in gadusol‐rich fish roes extracts

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Gadusol‐rich extracts provide effective UVB protection and antioxidant activity in HaCaT cells and C. elegans, highlighting their potential as natural photochemoprotective agents for pharmaceutical and cosmetic applications. It also demonstrates remarkable in vitro antioxidant capacity and thermal stability over time.
