Behavioural responses to radio‐tag attachment in butterflies: Evidence for active tag removal
During controlled indoor flight experiments with 89 butterflies from eight tropical species, we monitored behavioural responses to dorsally attached radio tags using high‐speed video recordings. Four of 39 Morpho helenor exhibited coordinated abdominal flexion and hind leg movements directed toward the tag antenna during flight; in two individuals this

ABSTRACT Rising nighttime temperature (Tnight) can reduce crop yields while low Tnight may restrict plant growth and development. Despite quantifiable effects of Tnight, genetic basis underlying plant responses to Tnight remains unclear. We investigated natural variation in long‐term response of effective photosynthetic efficiency (Fq’/Fm’) to Tnight ...

Precarious agency: The role of uptake
Abstract How do we overcome the agency dilemma, that is, account for the fact that power relations heavily affect our agency without neglecting the many ways in which oppressed people act meaningfully? This article offers a solution by paying special attention to socially complex uptake in a framework of communities of practice. In order to explain the

GRKs and arrestins: Nomenclature and functions in GPCR‐dependent and ‐independent signalling
G protein‐coupled receptor (GPCR) kinases (GRKs) and arrestins play a critical role in the regulation of GPCR signalling. Historic names of mammalian GRKs were replaced by systematic ones in the 1990s; however, both kinds of names are currently in use for mammalian arrestins.

Interaction of Structured Light With Nanostructured Matter
Structured light–matter interactions at the nanoscale remain poorly understood. We reveal a symmetry‐matched mechanism governing orbital‐angular‐momentum‐dependent extinction in gold nanodisk oligomers. Tailored diffractive optical elements generate flower‐like beams whose rotational symmetry dictates absorption. Experiments and a semi‐analytical model

Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity
Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve

The incubation of primary astrocytes with fAuNCs‐BSA induces: (A) long‐term effects including fAuNCs‐BSA internalization, red cell fluorescence, differentiation, upregulation of Ca2+ signaling, Cl‐current, and cell volume regulation. B) Short‐term (200 ms) stimulation with UV LED light increases in Ca2+ signaling and inhibition of K+ current. Astrocyte

We used environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding across 135 temperate forest plots in Germany to examine how deadwood, tree‐related microhabitats (TreMs), and forest structure shape saproxylic arthropod communities. Structural equation modeling revealed that TreM richness and deadwood volume are key predictors of arthropod diversity, highlighting the ...
