Structural and Functional Variations of Enzymes Indicate Latitudinal Adaptations of Subarctic and Arctic Sea Urchins

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
Rapid warming in Arctic fjords challenges cold‐adapted benthic species, such as sea urchins of the genus Strongylocentrotus, key grazers on kelp forests. By comparing Arctic and Subarctic populations, we identified genetic and enzymatic differences in Arctic sea urchins, suggesting enhanced metabolic efficiency at low temperatures and potential for ...

Effects of pioglitazone with and without exercise training on cardiorespiratory fitness and oxygen uptake kinetics in type 2 diabetes

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 27, Issue 10, Page 5910-5920, October 2025.
Abstract Aims Exercise tolerance is often impaired in type 2 diabetes (T2D), and barriers to regular exercise are common. This study evaluated whether 12 weeks of pioglitazone (PIO) therapy could enhance peak oxygen uptake (V̇O2peak) and the time constant of the primary phase of oxygen uptake (τV̇O2p) during submaximal exercise, compared with exercise ...

Structural Insights Into the Role of RxLR Effectors in the Arms Race Between Oomycetes and Plants

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 26, Issue 9, September 2025.
Oomycete RxLR effectors promote infection and host colonisation by modulating autophagy, host enzymatic activity, RNA transcription, and plant immunity. Decoding their structure–function relationships facilitates innovative oomycete disease control and disease‐resistant crop breeding.

Genetic mutations disrupt the coordinated mode of tyrosinase's intra‐melanosomal domain

Protein Science, Volume 34, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract Oculocutaneous albinism type 1 is a genetic disorder caused by the disruption of tyrosinase activity in the melanogenesis pathway. The tyrosinase's intramelanosomal domain can be subdivided into the catalytic and Cys‐rich subdomains, integral for protein stability and catalytic activity.

Effects of pyruvate administration on mRNA expression of inflammatory cytokines in adipose tissue and whole‐body glucose metabolism in male mice

Physiological Reports, Volume 13, Issue 15, August 2025.
Abstract Pyruvate administration leads to the accumulation of intracellular lactate in adipocytes and affects inflammatory cytokine production and whole‐body glucose metabolism. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine whether pyruvate administration improves the dysfunction of glucose metabolism induced by high‐fat diet (HFD) intake.
