Comparative nasal and anal microbiomes in sympatric ringed and harbour seals: insights into host adaptation and niche differentiationComparative nasal and anal microbiomes in sympatric ringed and harbour seals: insights into host adaptation and niche differentiation [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science
Understanding the microbiomes of marine mammals is essential to explore their health, ecological roles and responses to environmental change. We investigated the nasal and anal microbiota of two sympatric subarctic seals, the harbour seal (Phoca vitulina)

The Mitogen‐Activated Protein Kinase GhNTF3 Modulates the Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Symbiosis‐Immunity Trade‐Off in Cotton by Regulating Salicylic Acid Biosynthesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
AM symbiosis induces GhWAK13 to promote fungal colonization. GhNTF3 negatively regulates symbiosis by promoting SA biosynthesis. GhWAK13 sequesters GhNTF3 at the membrane, limiting its nuclear translocation and relieving SA‐mediated suppression. Under Verticillium stress, GhNTF3 enters the nucleus and interacts with GhJAZ6 to activate SA signaling ...

Targeting the CRYAB/β‐Catenin Axis with an MMP‐9‐Responsive Hydrogel Disrupts CTC Clusters to Suppress Progression of Hepatocellular Carcinoma after Radiofrequency Ablation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract illustrates that sublethal thermal stress after iRFA upregulates the chaperone CRYAB in residual HCC cells, which stabilizes β‐catenin and drives a dual pathological program, including EMT and N2‐TAN polarization, thereby leading to heterotypic CTC cluster formation. The MMP‐9‐responsive hydrogel (XB@Gel) delivers XAV‐939 and BMS‐

A modelling framework to optimize timing of haulout counts for estimating harbour seal (Phoca vitulina) abundance

NAMMCO Scientific Publications, 2010
The time of year and day, the state of the tide and prevailing environmental conditions significantly influence seal haulout behaviour. Understanding these effects is fundamentally important in deriving accurate estimates of harbour seal abundance from ...

Ultrasound‐Activated Nanoinhibitors Blocking the Chemo‐Immune Checkpoint to Overcome Chemotherapy‐Induced Immune Resistance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A sono‐responsive chemo‐immune checkpoint nanoinhibitor (Sono‐TT8) co‐delivering TPZ chemotherapy and siXkr8 simultaneously kills tumor cells and blocks PS externalization, reversing chemotherapy‐induced immunosuppression and enhancing antitumor immunity. ABSTRACT Breast cancer features an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment following chemotherapy

Structure and Function of a Multi‐Megadalton Virus‐Like Proteolytic Dodecahedron

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Zuzalysin, a virulence metallopeptidase of the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis, is secreted as a latent, flexible ≈95‐kDa monomer. Calcium triggers cysteine‐switch activation and hierarchical assembly into pentamers, bipentamers, tripentamers, and a ≈5.6‐MDa, ≈355‐Å dodecahedron. Structures at 1.8–3.6 Å reveal a virus‐sized catalytic cage

Diet and heavy metal uptake by two top predator species in the Tees Estuary [PDF]

, 2006
The key aim of the thesis was to estimate metal uptake and its seasonal variation from the diet by two predators from the Tees Estuary, harbour seals, Phoca vitulina and cormorants, Phalacrocorax carbo.

Helicobacter pylori‐Induced Persistent IGF2BP1 Activation Promotes Ferroptosis Resistance in Gastric Tumorigenesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Helicobacter pylori infection induces sustained upregulation of the RNA‐binding protein IGF2BP1 in gastric epithelial cells, establishing a persistent epitranscriptomic program. IGF2BP1 stabilizes SLC7A11 mRNA in an m6A‐dependent manner to suppress ferroptosis and promote epithelial survival under oxidative stress. Pharmacological inhibition of IGF2BP1

Upadacitinib Restrains the Pathogenic Fitness of CD4+ T Cells and Aberrant B Cell Programming in Optic Neuritis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Single‐cell profiling and functional perturbation reveal coordinated JAK1‐pSTAT3 downstream programs in optic neuritis, including MCL1‐dependent fitness of pathogenic CD4+ Tem cells and glycolysis‐linked, cholesterol‐sensitive B‐cell responses associated with RORA. Upadacitinib disrupts this reciprocal T‐B‐cell circuit and alleviates neuroinflammation,
