Discovery of sexual dimorphism of the laryngeal sac in the common minke whale Balaenoptera acutorostrata

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 2, Page 397-416, February 2026.
Abstract Mysticetes, or baleen whales, have an air sac on the ventral surface of the larynx known as the “laryngeal sac.” The primary hypothesis regarding this structure's function is that it is involved in sound production. However, several other functions have been proposed, including air recycling, air storage, and even buoyancy control.

Generation of In Vivo‐Inspired 3D Collagen Models for Guided Tumor Invasion In Vitro

open access: yesCurrent Protocols, Volume 6, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Porous collagen hydrogels are widely used to model dynamic cell‐extracellular matrix (ECM) interactions relevant to inflammation, wound healing, and cancer invasion. To improve the physiological relevance of such assays, it is essential to incorporate architectural ECM characteristics identified in vivo that may affect the mechanical and ...

Self‐Organizing Ovarian Somatic Organoids Preserve Cellular Heterogeneity and Reveal Cellular Contributions to Ovarian Aging

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 1, January 2026.
We report the development and application of a mouse ovarian somatic organoid model to elucidate a fundamental new understanding of the cell biology of the aging ovarian microenvironment. ABSTRACT Ovarian somatic cells are essential for reproductive function, but no existing ex vivo models recapitulate the cellular heterogeneity or interactions within ...

Interaction Between Pinus Species and Foliar Fungal Pathogens: Similar Symptoms, Contrasting Physiology

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Lecanosticta acicola and Dothistroma septosporum trigger similar symptoms; host responses diverge sharply: Pinus pinea mounts robust defences, P. pinaster remains vulnerable, and P. radiata sustains growth. These contrasting strategies highlight species‐specific resilience and provide key insights for sustainable forest protection.

Effectiveness of Punch Grafting in Promoting Healing and Reducing Pain in Hard‐to‐Heal Leg Ulcers

open access: yesWound Repair and Regeneration, Volume 34, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT Approximately 20% of chronic leg ulcers remain recalcitrant despite treatment of underlying factors and best standard of wound care. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of partial‐thickness punch grafting in promoting healing and reducing pain in patients with chronic, hard‐to‐heal leg ulcers of various causes. In this single‐centre,
