Target Capture Sequencing Provides Insights Into Hybridogenetic Water Frogs

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
The genomics of European frogs of the genus Pelophylax are intriguing due to their propensity to hybridise, the prevalence of polyploidy, and the unusual hemiclonal hybridogenetic complexes formed in many populations. This study examines the use of target capture sequencing using the Frog Cap bait set to investigate these complex systems.

Curcumin Nanoformulations for Dermatological Applications: From Nutraceuticals to Nanocarriers

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 3, May 2026.
Nanotechnology‐based delivery platforms enhance the cutaneous administration of curcumin. Loading free curcumin into polymeric micelles, metal‐based nanoparticles, nanogels/hydrogels, liposomes, polymeric nanoparticles, or nanoemulsions/nanocrystals helps address its low solubility, poor stability and limited skin permeation. As a result, these systems

Systemic Propagation of STING Signalling via Generation of Large Extracellular Vesicles

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Large extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from tumour cells play important roles in tumour formation and progression. However, it remains unclear why malignant cells produce these EVs and how they act in vivo. We employ a well‐characterized Drosophila tumour model and demonstrate that large EV biogenesis from malignant cells is an ...

Ecotoxicological Evaluation of Organic Sunscreens Used Worldwide, Alone and in Mixture, on Terrestrial Plants

Environmental Toxicology, Volume 41, Issue 5, Page 257-269, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The environmental hazards of sunscreens are discussed worldwide. However, there are few ecotoxicological studies on these compounds alone for edaphic organisms, and none for their mixtures. Avobenzone (1 and 10 ng/L), octocrylene (10 and 100 μg/L), and oxybenzone (2 and 20 μg/L), alone and in binary combinations (between the lowest and the ...

Microplastic Impacts on Seafood: A Global Synthesis of Experimental Findings

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 3, Page 591-606, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Plastic pollution is a growing global concern, with plastic and microplastic particles now widespread in aquatic environments. Microplastics are frequently ingested by marine organisms, including commercially important seafood species. Ingestion can lead to a range of biological effects, influenced by the size, type and quantity of plastic, as
