Subacute Exposure to Aldrin, Endosulfan and Lindane Differentially Alters Metabolic and Inflammatory Gene Expression in White and Brown Adipose Tissue of Male Rats

open access: yesCell Biochemistry and Function, Volume 44, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Persistent organic pollutants such as organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) have been implicated in obesity and metabolic dysfunction. As they bioaccumulate in adipose tissue, OCPs may act as obesogens, but in vivo evidence for aldrin, endosulfan and lindane is limited.

Identification and distribution of a GABA receptor mutation conferring dieldrin resistance in the malaria vector Anopheles funestus in Africa

open access: yesInsect Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2011
Growing problems of pyrethroid resistance in Anopheles funestus have intensified efforts to identify alternative insecticides. Many agrochemicals target the GABA receptors, but cross-resistance from dieldrin resistance may preclude their introduction ...

Conserving the World's Specialist Riverine Birds

open access: yesWIREs Water, Volume 13, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Specialist riverine birds constitute a diverse bird group globally, highly adapted to rivers and streams. They are at risk from multiple threats to rivers, riparian zones and river catchments including impoundment, hydropower and abstraction; land‐use changes including urbanization and agricultural intensification; traditional and emerging pollutants ...

Synthesis, Characterization, and Evaluation of the Remediation Activity of Cissus quadrangularis Zinc Oxide Nanoparticle-Activated Carbon Composite on Dieldrin in Aqueous Solution

open access: yesJournal of Nanotechnology, 2022
In this study, zinc oxide-activated carbon nanocomposite was used as the adsorbent for the remediation of dieldrin in aqueous media. Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZNPs) were synthesized from Cissus quadrangularis (C.

Operationalising Environmental DNA (eDNA) Detection of Major Malaria Vector Species in Ghana

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 5, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The global landscape of vector‐borne diseases (VBDs) is shifting, driven by climate change, urbanisation and widespread habitat modification, requiring novel approaches to surveillance, prevention and control. To improve our capacity to respond to real‐time emergent VBD threats, this study undertook cross‐sectional sampling of suspected ...

SUSCEPTIBILITY OF ANOPHELES FLUVIATILIS TO INSECTICIDES IN SOUTHERN IRAN [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Public Health, 1982
The first records of Anopheles fluviatilis resistance to DDT was reported in 1963 from India and to dieldrin from eastern Saudi Arabia in 1959. In southern Iran, antimalaria measures began in 1950 and up to 1957 the area was under DDT residual house ...

Upregulated PKM2 Protects Dopaminergic Neurons From Oxidative Damage Through Nrf2 Transactivation in an MPTP‐Induced Mouse Model of Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.
Oxidative stress induced by MPTP promotes hnRNP A1/A2–dependent alternative splicing toward PKM2 in dopaminergic neurons. Elevated PKM2 transactivates Nrf2, enhances antioxidant gene expression, and protects neurons from oxidative damage and degeneration.
