Transcriptomics Reveal Molecular Signatures of a Resolved Sexual Conflict and Potential Association With Colour Polymorphism in Tawny Owls

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 7, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Genome sharing in gonochorous species is expected to result in intraspecific conflicts due to intersexual competition. The emergence of sexual dimorphism is thus connected to the evolution of mechanisms that, starting from a similar genomic background, produce sufficiently disparate phenotypes to attenuate sexually antagonistic selection.

Cold exposure and metabolic health: Therapeutic potential for obesity, diabetes, and beyond

Physiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, April 2026.
Abstract Cold exposure, an inducer of brown adipose tissue thermogenesis, has been applied to relieve exercise‐induced pain and inflammation, modulate circulation and enhance metabolism. However, its role in managing metabolic diseases and the underlying molecular mechanisms remain inadequately understood.

Neuroendocrine control of satiation [PDF]

, 2017
Eating is a simple behavior with complex functions. The unconscious neuroendocrine process that stops eating and brings a meal to its end is called satiation. Energy homeostasis is mediated accomplished through the control of meal size via satiation.
