An ITPR1 Variant in the IP3‐ITPR1 Binding Pocket Associated With a Clinical Phenotype of Athetoid Cerebral Palsy

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 2, Page 459-467, February 2026.
ABSTRACT A de novo, missense variant in ITPR1‐inositol 1,4,5‐trisphosphate receptor type 1 (ITPR1), p.(Tyr567Cys), was identified by trio whole‐genome sequencing in an individual diagnosed with Spinocerebellar ataxia 29 (SCA29) who was affected by cerebral palsy and global developmental delay.

Phylogenetic multi-locus codon models and molecular clocks reveal the monophyly of haematophagous reduviid bugs and their evolution at the formation of South America.

open access: yes, 2010
We previously constructed a single molecular clock to date insect evolution that remains a cornerstone within entomological dating. The insect clock predicts that triatomine bugs, the vectors of South American trypanosomiasis, originated with the ...

The importin‐alpha superfamily engages in ethylene signaling by shuttling ETHYLENE INSENSITIVE 2 from the endoplasmic reticulum to the nucleus

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 3, Page 894-917, February 2026.
The plant hormone ethylene regulates plant growth, ripening, senescence, and stress responses. The hormonal signal transmission, from receptors at the ER membrane to the transcriptional regulators in the nucleus, is still not completely understood.

Patterns of mammal subsistence hunting in eastern Amazon, Brazil

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2018
Hunting affects many threatened mammal species in Brazil. We described subsistence hunting patterns for medium‐ (1.0–14.9 kg) and large‐sized (>15 kg) mammal species by a rural community in the eastern Amazon, Brazil. From April 2012 to November 2013, we

At the intersection of soundscapes and roads: Quantifying anthrophony's influence on wildlife crossing structure use

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Anthropogenic noise (anthrophony) can have significant negative effects on wildlife, causing both physiological (i.e., increased stress hormone production) and behavioral (i.e., altered anti‐predator behaviors, space use, or diel activity) changes in individuals.

The armadillo: a model for the neuropathy of leprosy and potentially other neurodegenerative diseases

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2013
Leprosy (also known as Hansen’s disease) is an infectious peripheral neurological disorder caused by Mycobacterium leprae that even today leaves millions of individuals worldwide with life-long disabilities.

The Secret Life of Tidal Marshes and Mangroves: Camera Trapping as a Window Into Wildlife Using North American Coastal Wetlands

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
We conducted the first coordinated assessment of terrestrial wildlife across North America's vegetated coastal wetlands. Our study demonstrates the significant role coastal wetlands play in wildlife support, offers a model for broad‐scale wildlife studies, and highlights the importance of incorporating top‐down perspectives and a landscape approach ...

Evidence of zoonotic leprosy in Pará, Brazilian Amazon, and risks associated with human contact or consumption of armadillos.

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2018
Mycobacterium leprae (M. leprae) is a human pathogen and the causative agent for leprosy, a chronic disease characterized by lesions of the skin and peripheral nerve damage. Zoonotic transmission of M.

Diversity in Paracoccidioides brasiliensis. the PbGP43 gene as a genetic marker [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Paracoccidioides brasiliensis is a temperature-dependent dimorphic fungus and the agent of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), which is prevalent in rural workers of Latin American countries. Until a decade ago, most of the studies involving P.
