Genome Expansion of ZPB1(a) and ZPC1(a) in Basal Species or Liver Expression of ZPB1a and ZPC1aa in Advanced Species, Two Different Strategies to Ensure Sufficient ZP Synthesis in Teleosts

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We found that teleosts employed two different strategies to ensure sufficient ZP (zona pellucida) synthesis: expansion of ZPB1(a) and ZPC1(a) in basal species or liver expression of ZPB1a and ZPC1aa in advanced species. The N‐terminus of expanded ZPB1(a) or ZPC1(a) and liver‐expressed ZPB1a contains repeated units or low‐complexity regions to form ...

Chromosome‐Level Genome Assemblies of Two Softshell Turtles with ZZ/ZW Provide Insights into TE‐Driven Recombination Suppression in Sex Chromosomes

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study presents the first genomic identification and characterization of ZW sex chromosomes in two soft‐shelled turtle species through genome assembly and resequencing. We reveal the structural organization of ZW chromosomes, identifying both pseudoautosomal regions (PARs) and differentiated regions.

The association of methadone use with physical function and frailty among persons who inject drugs

Addiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Aims Persons who inject drugs (PWID) experience a high burden of early‐onset frailty, primarily due to multifactorial causes such as infections (human immunodeficiency virus [HIV], hepatitis C virus [HCV]), substance use, and polypharmacy.

Extracranial, Extragonadal Germ Cell Tumors: A Multicenter Australian Case Series

Asia-Pacific Journal of Clinical Oncology, EarlyView.
Extragonadal germ cell tumors (EGCTs) are rare, with limited prospective data to guide treatment or inform prognosis. Incidence and treatment patterns of EGCT in Australia reflect international data and practices. Compared to testicular primaries, the prognosis of EGCT is poor, especially for primary mediastinal non‐seminoma.

Revealing the Diverse Allergenic Protein Repertoire of Six Widely Consumed Crab Species: A Species‐Specific Allergen in King Crab

Allergy, EarlyView.
This study comprehended the allergen profiles of six edible crab species using proteomic and transcriptomic analyses and identified 11 putative allergens. King crab has a distinct protein and allergen profile, with the discovery of malate dehydrogenase as a novel king crab‐specific allergen registered as Para c 11.

Testicular histopathology and its association with germ cell numbers, serum concentrations of reproductive hormones, and semen quality

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background It is well‐established that spermatogenesis, semen quality, and reproductive hormones are interlinked. It is, however, less well‐described how various specific testicular histopathologies are linked to reproductive hormones and semen quality.
