Simulated Trampling Disturbance Alters Biocrust Microbial Communities and Soil Functions: A Container‐Based Mesocosm Experiment

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biological soil crusts (biocrusts) are crucial components of dryland ecosystems; however, they are highly vulnerable to anthropogenic disturbances, particularly trampling caused by grazing. To evaluate the impacts of trampling on biocrust structure, microbial communities, and soil functions, we conducted a mesocosm‐based simulated disturbance ...

Asymmetric Response of Soil Heterotrophic Respiration and Its Temperature Sensitivity in a Desert Steppe Under Climate Change

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil heterotrophic respiration (Rh) and its temperature sensitivity (Q10) are important variables reflecting the intensity of feedback between the grassland carbon cycle and climate change. However, the factors regulating Rh and Q10 in desert grasslands under climate change remain unclear, and the asymmetric response of Rh during warming and ...

KAT8‐Low Osteosarcoma Suppresses Cisplatin Sensitivity via H4K16ac‐Mediated Cell Apoptosis

Med Research, EarlyView.
The scientific significance of this study is highlighted below: (1) Data mining and clinical discovery: These findings establish a direct clinical link between the KAT8–H4K16ac axis and chemotherapy response in osteosarcoma. (2) Multi‐omics and machine‐learning integration: We integrated proteomics and CUT&Tag multi‐omics to elucidate how chromatin ...

Saussurea × media (Asteraceae), a new natural hybrid between S. parviflora and S. controversa

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Saussurea × media Yusupovsky and E.Pjak (Asteraceae), a new nothospecies from the Altai‐Sayan Mountains, is described and illustrated. In this study, we sequenced the internal transcribed spacer of nuclear ribosomal DNA and the chloroplast intergenic spacers rsp16‐trnQ and ycf4‐cemA to verify the hypothesis of hybridization between Saussurea parviflora

Body Size, Dental Pathology, and Maternal Genetic Diversity of Ancient Horses in the Eastern Baltic Sea Region and Western Russia

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The early evolutionary history of modern domestic horses (Equus caballus/Equus ferus caballus), known as the DOM2 lineage, is well documented due to numerous archaeological and ancient DNA (aDNA) studies. Although many uncertainties remain in the domestication timeline, current evidence suggests that the domestication of modern horses began in

Evolution of photoperiod insensitivity drove the westward expansion of broomcorn millet

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
This research highlights how ancient farming communities adapted crops to challenging environments, enabling the spread of agriculture across Eurasia. By demonstrating that broomcorn millet evolved reduced sensitivity to day‐length, the study explains how this crop could support food production in regions with short growing seasons and long summer days.

Natural Products Exhibit Therapeutic Potential in Treating Rheumatoid Arthritis by Targeting the PI3K/Akt Signaling Pathway

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
This review summarizes how natural products, mainly including flavonoids, terpenoids, alkaloids, and polyphenols alleviate RA via PI3K/Akt pathway, regulating inflammation, proliferation, apoptosis, angiogenesis, and osteoclast differentiation. The figure was created by Figdraw (https://www.figdraw.com/#/).
