Oceanographic heterogeneity facilitates gelatinous zooplankton niche space and diversity
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.

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
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
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 ...

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 ...
