Stimulating proteasomal degradation in human proteinopathies

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The proteasome mediates the degradation of a wide range of proteins. Boosting proteasomal degradation may be beneficial in several disease contexts and can be achieved either by modulating proteasome activity or by improving substrate delivery. Proteasome activity can be enhanced by increasing proteasome abundance, inducing constitutive gate opening ...

Dietary flexibility and high arthropod availability prevent food limitation in a mountain population of breeding Northern Wheatears

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Mountain ecosystems are under strong environmental pressure and are considered highly vulnerable to climate change, which is likely to lead to forest expansion and loss of open alpine grasslands, threatening many specialized species. However, for most alpine birds, even basic ecological knowledge, such as their diet, remains limited, restricting our ...

Malaria mosquito antimicrobial defence requires immunity and detoxification gene regulation by Lola

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Malaria mosquito antimicrobial defence requires upregulation of lola. Attenuation of lola in the midgut of Anopheles albimanus mosquitoes inhibits the upregulation of immunity genes induced by challenge. Putative target genes of the Lola transcription factor were revealed by lola attenuation, including Cecropin‐C, Draper, PPAF2, Clip‐domain serine ...

From biology to biotechnology: Host‐regulation factors from parasitoid wasps are a source of bioactive molecules with translational potential

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Parasitoid wasps deploy maternal and embryonic factors to reprogramme host physiology. Venom, calyx fluid, polydnaviruses, teratocytes and larval secretions act in a coordinated, compartmentalised manner. Host‐regulation factors are promising sources of insecticidal, antimicrobial and bioinspired translational molecules.

RNA activation in insects: From emerging evidence to molecular applications

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Canonical RNA activation involves small RNAs interacting with promoter sequences, but there is also evidence of non‐canonical RNAa in eukaryotes. Emerging evidence suggests the presence of RNAa in insects. RNAa can be utilised as a tool for functional genomic studies in insects.

Effects of Rearing Density on Growth, Adult Emergence and Survival in the Edible Cricket Gryllodes sigillatus

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gryllodes sigillatus is an increasingly important species in edible insect production, yet the optimal rearing density for this species under commercial conditions remains poorly defined. This study evaluated the effects of five rearing densities (1.5, 2, 2.5, 3 and 4 mL of newly hatched nymphs, corresponding to approximately 0.144–0.385 ...

Northern cod (Gadus morhua) movement: insights from acoustic telemetry and genomics

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Knowledge of the timing and diversity of fish movements within a commercially exploited stock complex is required to ensure the sustainability of fisheries. Although migration can be driven by environmental factors, genomic mechanisms also play an important role in this complex life‐history trait. The northern cod (Gadus morhua) stock complex,

Fish welfare in a changing world: New developments and current challenges

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The welfare of non‐human animals is central to ethical discussions on animal use, with increasing attention to fish welfare across research, aquaria, aquaculture, and fisheries. This paper reviews current theoretical approaches to animal welfare and recent advances in defining and assessing fish welfare since the seminal paper by Huntingford ...

Pejerrey (Odontesthes bonariensis) Under Siege: Main Infectious Diseases and Their Role in Aquaculture and Wild Populations Amidst Environmental Change

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, Volume 48, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT The pejerrey (Odontesthes bonariensis) is a key species for recreational and commercial fisheries in Argentina and holds significant aquaculture potential. It has been introduced to various countries worldwide, including Japan, where intensive aquaculture has developed.

Coniferyl aldehyde from the phenylpropanoid pathway targets pyruvate kinase in Dactylobotrys graminicola to confer sheath rot resistance in hulless barley

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Hulless barley resists the newly identified sheath rot disease caused by the necrotrophic fungal pathogen Dactylobotrys graminicola by releasing coniferyl aldehyde, a natural compound that disrupts energy production in the fungus. ABSTRACT Dactylobotrys graminicola (Dgr), a necrotrophic fungal pathogen, has recently been identified as the causative ...
