Syntaxin 12 Sustains Endosomal‐Lysosomal Homeostasis and Survival in Glioblastoma Stem‐Like Cells

open access: yesTraffic, Volume 27, Issue 3, September 2026.
Syntaxin12 maintains endolysosomal trafficking and lysosomal homeostasis in glioblastoma cells. Syntaxin12 depletion disrupts lysosomal organization, impairs endolysosomal progression and mTOR‐lysosome communication, and compromises adaptive pathways required for cell survival. ABSTRACT Glioblastoma cells display a striking vulnerability to disruptions

Divergent Forest Cover Changes Dominate Inter‐Model Spread in Near‐Surface Wind Speed Trends Over China

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract Near‐surface wind speed (NSWS) regulates the intensity of land‐atmosphere fluxes and the viability of wind energy systems, playing a pivotal role in human adaptation to climate change. However, at the current stage, global climate models exhibit a wide inter‐model spread in NSWS simulations, limiting the reliability of future wind energy ...

Nocturnal hypothermia in the Inca dove, Scardafella inca

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology, 1967
Abstract 1. 1. When derived of food and/or water Inca doves experience pronounced nocturnal hypothermia, the depth of which is independent of T A and reflects nutritional state. 2. 2. Nocturnal hypothermia results in considerable conservation of both energy and water, the magnitude depending upon depth of hypothermia. 3. 3.
