Oceanographic heterogeneity facilitates gelatinous zooplankton niche space and diversity

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Gelatinous zooplankton serve diverse ecological roles in shelf food webs—from grazers to predators. However, their spatial niches are poorly resolved, especially at detailed taxonomic levels, due to conventional techniques that are unable to measure distributions at fine spatial scales.

Using stable isotopes to describe the trophic structure of gelatinous zooplankton across the deep pelagic

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue 12, Page 3634-3649, December 2025.
Abstract Although gelatinous zooplankton are key members of marine ecosystems and food webs, their trophic ecology is poorly described across the deep pelagic. We used stable carbon (bulk tissue) and nitrogen (bulk tissue and amino acid) isotope analysis to estimate the trophic positions (TPs) of abundant gelatinous zooplankton (chaetognaths ...

Modulation of Aging Diseases via RAGE Targets: A Dietary Intervention Review

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 38, October 13, 2025.
This paper analyzes RAGE ligand‐binding mechanisms and signaling, proposing intervention strategies targeting these interactions. It emphasizes dietary polyphenols, polysaccharides, and terpenoids delivered via functional foods for anti‐aging. These compounds offer long‐term, safe intervention through dietary supplementation, providing dual nutritional

The Distribution Patterns of Vascular Plant Diversity in Green Spaces in Guangzhou, Southern China

open access: yesBiological Diversity, Volume 2, Issue 2-3, Page 110-118, September 2025.
Study on vascular plant diversity in three urban green space types in Guangzhou's built‐up area reveals type differences and “decrease‐then‐increase” urban‐rural gradients to inform conservation and planning. ABSTRACT Vascular plants are a fundamental component of urban green spaces (UGSs) and their diversity determines the associated ecological ...

Active condensation of the atmospheric moisture as a self-irrigation mechanism for the ground-covering plants

open access: yesHortus Botanicus, 2015
Studies conducted at the Subtropical Botanical Garden of Kuban (Utch-Dere, Sochi) pretty much allow to explain the abnormally high drought resistance of Liriope graminifolia Lour.

Bioactive polysaccharides and their potential health benefits in reducing the risks of metabolic syndrome: A review

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, Volume 2, Issue 3, Page 288-314, September 2025.
Abstract Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a complex noncommunicable condition characterized by central obesity, insulin resistance, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and hyperglycemia. Epidemiological evidence shows that MetS affects a third of the global population; however, due to its complex pathogenesis and limited drug therapy options, the increasing ...
