Indirect effects of fast‐growing urban development on wildlife in a coastal protected area of Costa Rica

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 3, April 2026.
We studied the effects of urban growth on wildlife near Parque Nacional Marino las Baulas, Costa Rica. Since 1991, buildings increased 1007%, mainly in the buffer zone. We identified eight native species extracting garbage from containers, with raccoons (Procyon lotor) comprising most detections (84%), and four other species being potential sea turtle ...

Mycobacterium leprae in six-banded (Euphractus sexcinctus) and nine-banded armadillos (Dasypus novemcinctus) in Northeast Brazil

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2012
Human beings are the main reservoir of the causative agent of leprosy, Mycobacterium leprae. In the Americas, nine-banded armadillos (Dasypus novemcinctus) also act as a reservoir for the bacillus.

Climbing the urban canopy: Camera trap insights into mammal activity and habitat use

Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 50, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Urbanization profoundly impacts wildlife behavior and habitat use. While the effects of urbanization on diel activity patterns and mammal interactions have been well studied at the ground level, little is known about spatiotemporal patterns above the ground.

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

American 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.

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

The 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.
