Blue plaque review series: Thomas Graham Brown: Before his time

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Thomas Graham Brown made a seminal discovery, published in 1911 while he was a Carnegie Fellow in the University of Liverpool laboratory of Nobel Prize winner Charles S. Sherrington. Working in cats, he showed that rhythmic ‘voluntary’ behaviour, such as stepping and, by inference, walking, does not result from a chain of reflex events, but ...

A Quarter Century of EHD Protein Research: From Endosomal Recycling to Ciliopathies

open access: yesTraffic, Volume 27, Issue 3, September 2026.
Human EHD protein subcellular localization. ABSTRACT Eps15 homology domain‐containing proteins comprise a conserved family of membrane‐remodeling ATPases that regulate endocytic trafficking, membrane fission, receptor recycling, primary ciliogenesis and membrane dynamics across eukaryotes. Since the initial identification of EHD1 and its Caenorhabditis

Exploring the Shared Genetic Basis of Age at Menopause and Osteoarthritis

open access: yesACR Open Rheumatology, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.
Objective The relationship between age at menopause and osteoarthritis (OA) remains unclear. Methods The genetic commonalities between age at menopause and OA were investigated using data from publicly accessible genome‐wide association studies. A variety of methods were employed in this exploration, such as linkage disequilibrium score regression ...

How Host Phylogeny, Diet, and Habitat Affect Gut Microbial Diversity in Wild Snakes

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
Gut microbiota plays critical roles in host digestion, immune regulation, neurochemical signaling, and metabolic homeostasis. Based on wild snakes (73 individuals from 23 species) from China, we explored the composition, characteristics, and functions of gut microbes across different groups using fecal metagenomic samples; further we explored the ...

Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles for Food Applications: From Synthesis and Functional Properties to Safety and Sustainability

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 4, July 2026.
Green and conventional synthesis routes produce ZnO nanoparticles with tunable physicochemical properties for food applications, ZnO‐NPs enhance antimicrobial activity, UV protection, and food preservation through ROS generation and ZN2+ release. However, particle dissolution, migration, cytotoxicity, and environmental concerns highlight the need for ...

Cumulative heatwave stress disrupts thermal homeostasis and plumage structure in a Mediterranean passerine

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 7, Page 1960-1978, July 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Heatwaves are becoming increasingly frequent across the Mediterranean and pose critical challenges for small passerines, yet the physiological and morphological limits to their resilience remain poorly understood.

Social organization and habitat use shape the gut microbiome of a marine fish

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 7, Page 1091-1107, July 2026.
This study provides the first evidence linking habitat use—and to a lesser extent social organization—to gut microbiome composition in a wild marine fish. The results indicate that local habitat conditions are the primary driver of microbial variation, while social effects are detectable but weak.

A Primate‐Specific lncRNA LINC01021 Contributes to Cellular and Organismal Aging via DAZAP1‐Dependent Destabilization of RBMX

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 7, July 2026.
Primate‐specific lncRNA LINC01021 promotes aging by enhancing cellular senescence and accelerating aspects of organismal decline. Mechanistically, LINC01021 induces DAZAP1‐mediated destabilization of RBMX, activating the P53 pathway and establishing a primate‐specific regulatory axis in aging.

Photoperiod‐Regulated Thermal Tolerance of the Non‐Diapausing Insect Ceratitis capitata (Diptera: Tephritidae)

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 7, Page 725-735, July 2026.
Developmental photoperiodic exposure (photoacclimation) from egg to adult emergence alters thermal tolerance in Ceratitis capitata. Flies reared under contrasting photoperiods (0:24, 8:16, 14:10, and 24:0 L:D) showed significant shifts in both CTmin and CTmax, whereas adult‐only photoacclimation affected CTmax but not CTmin.

Ontogenetic Sequence of Differential Gene Expression in Predator‐Induced Daphnia pulex

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 13, July 2026.
ABSTRACT In response to predators, many Daphnia species develop inducible morphological defenses. These traits are phenotypically plastic, meaning their production is suppressed in the absence of the predator. While previous studies have identified several neurohumoral factors and candidate genes involved in the development of the defenses, the ...
