Talin1 Adhesion Morphology and Colocalization With Tensin3 Are Largely Unaffected by Polyacrylamide Substrate Stiffness

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cells sense the stiffness of their extracellular matrix (ECM) and adapt their behavior accordingly. We investigated how ECM stiffness affects the spatial organization of talin1, a key mechanosensitive focal adhesion protein. Using polyacrylamide (PA) hydrogels with tunable stiffnesses (0.2–188 kPa), we analyzed cell morphology, migration ...

Fixation Induces Mislocalization of Thin Filament Components in Caenorhabditis elegans Striated Muscle

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The simple nematode Caenorhabditis elegans has long served as a powerful genetic model system for studying muscle structure and function, with sarcomeres of the striated body wall muscle (BWM) that are considered largely homologous to those in vertebrates.

An Investigation Into the Yields of 3,4‐Methylenedioxyphenyl‐2‐propanone (MDP2P) From Glycidate Pre‐Precursors

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
Hydrolysis of the glycidate pre‐precursors MMDMG and EMDMG was evaluated for MDP2P production. Acid hydrolysis of MMDMG (HCl, 100°C, 18 h) yielded the highest MDP2P recovery (79%), whereas base hydrolysis produced only slightly lower yields (73%), demonstrating both pathways are effective routes to this key MDMA precursor.

Spatio‐temporal dynamics of ringed seal density and habitat use in the Arctic's Last Ice Area

Ecography, EarlyView.
The Arctic is warming at approximately four times the global rate, driving widespread decline in sea ice extent, thickness, and seasonal duration. The ecological consequences of these rapid changes remain poorly understood within the Last Ice Area, a region that includes northern Ellesmere Island and the northwest of Greenland, projected to retain ...

Spatially heterogenous range dynamics since the Last Glacial Maximum underpin the modern bimodal latitudinal diversity gradient in planktonic foraminifera

Ecography, EarlyView.
The modern latitudinal diversity gradient (LDG) of planktonic foraminifera is bimodal, with a distinct depression near the equator surrounded by mid‐latitude diversity peaks. This pattern emerged after the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM; 19–23 ka), but it remains unclear how species' spatial dynamics contributed to its formation.

Spatial variation and predictors of plant species' intrinsic climate sensitivity across the conterminous United States

Ecography, EarlyView.
Understanding how species' sensitivity to climate varies spatially across their ranges and elucidating the important causes is essential for identifying ecologically meaningful geographic units and conservation actions for biodiversity. In this study, we estimated climatic occurrence niches of vascular plants to explore the spatial variation in species'
