Potential Drivers of Successful Biocontrol: A Perspective on Parasitoids
Parasitoids are central to classical biological control, yet predicting their long‐term effectiveness post release remains challenging. In Aotearoa New Zealand, three Microctonus (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) species have been used against pest weevils, but key aspects of their biology remain poorly understood.

Altered expression of glutamate signaling, growth factor, and glia genes in the locus coeruleus of patients with major depression. [PDF]
Several studies have proposed that brain glutamate signaling abnormalities and glial pathology have a role in the etiology of major depressive disorder (MDD).

Herein, solvent extraction was selected for cetyltrimethylammonium bromide removal and the development of optimized Se‐embedded mesoporous silica nanoparticles, which were loaded with enzalutamide. Additionally, to improve the anticancer activity of Se@MSNPs‐Enz and curcumin bioavailability, curcumin‐loaded chitosan nanoparticles were prepared. This pH‐

Abstract A key prerequisite of transporter proteins' function is their trafficking to the target cellular membranes where they fulfill distinct physiological roles. Cornichon proteins (CNIH/Erv14) represent a highly conserved family of coat protein complex II (COPII)‐coated vesicle cargo receptors that facilitate the exit of numerous transporters from ...

ABSTRACT Over the past decade, probiotics have gone from been special health supplements to widely incorporated components in many foods and nutrition products. This has led to more careful checks of their safety, viability, and functional performance under realistic processing and consumption conditions.

Mechanism of Ammonia‐Induced Brain Damage in Chinese Striped‐Necked Turtle (Mauremys sinensis)
High levels of ammonia disrupt the integrity of the brain barrier in Mauremys sinensis, leading to tissue edema. This, in turn, triggers a series of cascade reactions, including disturbances in neurotransmitter levels, particularly glutamate, which might further exacerbate the neurotoxic effects.

Spreading depolarization and its influence on epileptiform activity
Abstract Spreading depolarization (SD) is a transient disruption of electrographic activity that slowly propagates through the gray matter by chemical contiguity, and it is characterized by a large depolarization of neurons and glial cells. SD, which is associated with massive changes in ion homeostasis, including extreme increases in [K+]o, was shown ...

Neuronal hyperexcitability: A key to unraveling hippocampal synaptic dysfunction in Lafora disease
Abstract Background and Objective Lafora disease (LD) is a rare progressive disorder caused by mutations in the EPM2A or EPM2B genes, characterized by the accumulation of Lafora bodies, drug‐resistant epilepsy, and cognitive decline. To investigate the early molecular mechanisms of LD, we studied electrophysiological changes in the dentate gyrus (DG ...
