Transcriptional Modulation of the Nrf2 Antioxidant Pathway and Tight Junctions by a Plant Sterol Food Supplement in an Intestinal Inflammation Coculture Model

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT There is growing evidence supporting the anti‐inflammatory activity of plant sterols (PS) in preclinical models of intestinal inflammation. However, the underlying mechanisms driving these beneficial effects remain incompletely understood. This study investigates the transcriptional modulatory activity of a PS food supplement (PS‐FS) on genes ...

Flux and Isotopic Composition of Sedimentary Carbon Subducting Along the World's Trenches

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Here we provide comprehensive estimates for the subducted sedimentary flux of inorganic and organic carbon and δ13C at 16 trench segments worldwide. Our calculations provide minimum (incoming sediment), maximum (trench fill) and best estimates (underthrust) of carbon fluxes.

Fault Friction, Plate Rheology, and Mantle Torques From a Global Dynamic Model of Neotectonics

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Improvements in software, parallel computing, global data sets, and laboratory flow‐laws help to develop the global Earth5 thin‐shell finite‐element model of Bird et al. (2008, https://doi.org/10.1029/2007jb005460) into a benchmark study. All experiments confirm that modeled faults (other than megathrusts) have low effective friction of 0.085 ±

Sourcing carnelian beads from the ancient Mesopotamian site of Kish, Iraq, 2450–2200 BCE: Stylistic, technological and geochemical approaches

Archaeometry, Volume 68, Issue S1, Page S22-S37, April 2026.
Abstract Trade between Mesopotamia and the Indus Civilization is studied through the analysis of Early Dynastic III Period (2600–2350 BCE) carnelian beads from the site of Kish, Iraq. Morphological and technological features of the beads are compared with beads from the Indus region.

Pure‐istan: Gender and Genocide in Pakistan

Antipode, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This study examines the ongoing genocidal violence against the Baloch nation. It highlights how the Pakistani state has weaponized Islamic doctrine to construct a vision of a homogenized, “purer, more Islamic state” that excludes and others those deemed incompatible with its vision of purity. This logic of purification is deeply gendered.

Holocene Sedimentary Record and Coastal Evolution in the Makran Subduction Zone (Iran)

Quaternary, 2019
The western Makran coast displays evidence of surface uplift since at least the Late Pleistocene, but it remains uncertain whether this displacement is accommodated by creep on the subduction interface, or in a series of large earthquakes.
