Core Microbial Taxa Strengthen Root Microbial Network Stability Under Drought Stress
This study evaluates different drought stresses on microbial diversity and network stability in roots and soils. Microbial diversity shifts across plant growth stages and microbial groups under stress. Enriched core taxa strengthen root microbial network stability under stress.

UNC45B Reduction With Aging: A Myofiber‐Intrinsic Promoting Factor for Sarcopenia
Aging reduces Unc45b expression in fast‐twitch muscle, concomitant with reduction in muscle contractile capacity and muscle mass in mice. Unc45b deficiency initially reduces depolarization‐induced force, followed by a decline in fast‐twitch muscle mass in adult mice.

Colour Polymorphism in Coconut Crabs Is Under Relaxed Selection From Conspecifics?
Coconut crabs are either red or blue irrespective of age or sex, are nocturnal and have very few predators. This experimental study shows that they do not use conspecific's colour but do use relative size to settle competitive interactions over food in the wild.

Microplastic Impacts on Seafood: A Global Synthesis of Experimental Findings
ABSTRACT Plastic pollution is a growing global concern, with plastic and microplastic particles now widespread in aquatic environments. Microplastics are frequently ingested by marine organisms, including commercially important seafood species. Ingestion can lead to a range of biological effects, influenced by the size, type and quantity of plastic, as

Human α2‐Macroglobulin: Architecture, Mechanisms, and Functional Implications
Visual representation of human α2‐macroglobulin in its native and induced conformations. General functions associated with the native form (green), the induced form (white), and both conformations (light red) are indicated. ABSTRACT α2‐Macroglobulin (α2M) is a large glycoprotein and one of the most abundant proteins found in the plasma of vertebrates ...

Substrate for Thyroid Hormone Synthesis: Biochemistry, Evolution, and Physiology
Two proposed sequence of events for thyroxine formation in patients expressing mutant thyroglobulin. (A) (1) TSH stimulation drives expression of misfolded TG. (2) Unremitting ER stress. (3) Stress‐induced cell death. (4) Dead thyrocytes release their contents. (5) The contents become iodinated. (6) Forming thyroxine.
