Advancing Therapies for Mycobacterial Diseases: From Small Molecules to Host‐Directed Strategies
ABSTRACT The global burden of multidrug‐resistant tuberculosis (MDR‐TB) and the rising incidence of nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections highlight the urgent need for innovative therapeutic strategies. Current treatments are prolonged, toxic, and increasingly compromised by resistance and limited diagnostic capacity.

Elucidating the physiological significance of iodate reduction in Shewanella species
Abstract The reduction of iodate by Shewanella species plays a crucial role in iodine biogeochemical cycling. However, the physiological significance of this reduction process remains poorly understood, because Shewanella species are capable of reducing only low concentrations of iodate.

ABSTRACT Congenital myasthenic syndromes (CMS) are inherited disorders caused by mutations in genes encoding proteins essential for neuromuscular junction (NMJ) function. Pathogenic variants have been identified in more than 35 genes, underscoring the complexity of synaptic biology and the wide range of mechanisms that can compromise neuromuscular ...

Interplanetary frontiers: terraforming from an invasion science perspective
The pursuit of a multi‐planetary existence represents one of humanity's greatest frontiers. If applied justly, it offers an opportunity to extend its civilization's lifespan amid escalating sustainability crises on Earth. One approach increasingly gaining traction is terraforming, a hitherto theoretical ecological and evolutionary experiment revolving ...

ABSTRACT As concerns for rising rates of youth suicide and suicidal thoughts and behaviors continue to grow, there is a need to prioritize school‐based suicide prevention programs. Despite evidence documenting the effectiveness of school‐based prevention programs for reducing suicide‐related risk in adolescents, schools face numerous barriers to ...

Deformation, Creep, and Dynamics in Glassy Ionomers
Ionic architecture tunes the inelastic deformation of glassy ionomers. Simulations show that ionic associations leave the small‐strain elastic baseline nearly unchanged, but strongly reinforce yielding, strain hardening, and creep resistance. Polyampholyte architectures suppress nonaffine mobility and stress‐induced fluidization most effectively by ...

Beyond forests: Harnessing conservation gardening for open biomes in Brazil
Urban gardening offers an innovative conservation strategy by integrating native ornamental species into urban landscapes. We evaluated the ornamental potential of the Brazilian flora by comparing the representation of species from forests versus open biomes (focusing on campo rupestre grasslands) and introduced and validated the Index of Ornamental ...

Foramsulfuron remains effective on Pro‐197 Poa annua, but co‐formulation with thiencarbazone reduces efficacy due to limited activity and antagonism. Therefore, foramsulfuron + thiencarbazone should be used in fields without ALS‐resistant weeds to ensure effective in‐crop control.

Mortality in an invasive ant does not scale linearly with fipronil exposure
Increasing fipronil concentration did not linearly increase yellow crazy ant mortality when introduced via horizontal transfer; high doses may limit food sharing. Queen mortality was low, and surviving workers were averse to feeding. Abstract Background Controlling eusocial invasive and other pestiferous insects is difficult.
