Relics, writing, and devotion in early medieval Chelles

Early Medieval Europe, EarlyView.
The discovery in 1983 of a collection of relics with their medieval identificatory tags in the parish church of Chelles opened new avenues for research on devotional and writing practices in this Frankish royal foundation. This is the first systematic study of the corpus of relic labels that accompanied these sacred objects, particularly of the subset ...

Captive husbandry and breeding of the reticulated glass frog, Hyalinobatrachium valerioi (Anura: Centrolenidae)

Herpetological Bulletin, 2019
The reticulated glass frog (Hyalinobatrachium valerioi) from Central and South America is a species that has been widely collected from the wild for the pet trade. An ex situ population of this frog was recently established at Slimbridge Wetland Centre, UK, in the hope of learning more about the husbandry and biology of this species.

Presentation of preload and afterload to isolated heart preparations

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The heart can be isolated, and when this is so, it must be subjected to loading conditions. Over the past few decades, various loading methods have been developed to prescribe preload and afterload to isolated working‐heart preparations.

Sequence‐encoded determinants drive distinct early aggregation pathways and different structural outcomes in PNT1 fibrils across Henipavirus members

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Protein aggregation is increasingly recognized as a biologically relevant process in viral proteins, yet the molecular determinants governing such phenomena remain poorly understood. Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are ubiquitous in viral proteomes, where conformational plasticity not only enables functional diversity but also permits

Agonist‐specific conformational dynamics at the β2‐adrenoceptor dictate allosteric modulation of Gαs signalling and bronchodilation

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 17, Page 5315-5335, September 2026.
Abstract Background and Purpose β2‐adrenoceptor (β2AR) agonists are the cornerstone of asthma therapy and promote bronchodilation through Gαs signalling in airway smooth muscle (ASM), but their efficacy is limited by β‐arrestin‐mediated β2AR desensitization.

Antipredatory Strategies of Anurans: An Updated Conceptual Review

Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 9, Page 662-708, September 2026.
To unravel the evolutionary dynamics of predator–prey interactions, we propose an updated, three‐tiered classification of anuran antipredatory strategies. By mapping non‐behavioral, individual, and group defenses across five functional phases, this integrative framework introduces the concept of synergetic coupling.

Local Resource Heterogeneity Drives Density‐Dependent Dispersal Expression in a Phoretic Mite

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Regional heterogeneity often selects for dispersal, as this allows individuals to move between environments. However, individuals do not experience regional conditions and must make developmental decisions based on local cues. Using long‐term population experiments, we find that local heterogeneity influences dispersal by exacerbating competition ...

Dealing With Inbuilt Age: A Bayesian Approach to Radiocarbon Dating of Rice, Bamboo and Charcoal From Non Ban Jak, Thailand

Archaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 811-817, August 2026.
ABSTRACT New radiocarbon determinations from rice grains and bamboo have been obtained from Non Ban Jak, Northeast Thailand. These, along with charcoal, date a late Iron Age building sequence. The results come from short‐lived species and charcoal with potential inbuilt age. We built a series of Bayesian models to obtain a reliable chronology.
