Ant Diversity of the Xisha Islands: Community Structure, Exotic Species Colonization, and Ecological Functions in a Tropical Coral Archipelago

open access: yesBiological Diversity, EarlyView.
The first inventory of ants from the Xisha Islands of the South China Sea was compiled, revealing 21 species: 70% native and 30% exotic. Anthropogenic disturbance primarily drove exotic colonization, whereas island area showed weak positive effects on species richness. Most ants were omnivorous, with key mutualistic and seed‐dispersal roles.

Juggling Key Players in NMD Initiation [PDF]

open access: yesStructure, 2014
In this issue of Structure, Melero and colleagues use electron microscopy combined with biochemistry to provide structural insight into the complex between SMG1, SMG8, SMG9, UPF1, and UPF2, elucidating how key players in nonsense-mediated mRNA decay assemble at the initial steps of the process.

Collaborative data collection by TREAT-NMD Registries to support post-marketing surveillance in Spinal Muscular Atrophy

open access: yes, 2019
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a rare genetic neuromuscular disorder characterized by a loss of motor neurons in the spinal cord and the brainstem, leading to muscle weakness and atrophy. The estimated incidence is around 1:10,000 live births.

Industrial Symbiosis as a Neglected Opportunity in Industrial Decarbonisation Pathways: Qualitative Insights From the Australian Manufacturing Sector

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Industrial symbiosis (IS) represents a key strategy for industrial decarbonisation (ID) by converting one industry's waste into valuable inputs for another, reducing emissions and resource extraction. Scientific studies have explored the concept, implementation approaches and theoretical foundations of IS.

Probiotic Spore Inspired Oral Drug Delivery System With Multiple‐Barriers‐Crossing Ability Modulates Gut‐Brain Axis for Parkinson's Disease Therapy

open access: yesExploration, EarlyView.
Inspired by the germination of probiotic spores, we utilize the excellent characteristics of spores to break through multiple barriers of oral brain‐targeted delivery. Besides the probiotics mediated gut‐brain communication, the spore coat proteins derived nanosystems with multiple‐barriers‐crossing ability alleviate neurodegeneration.

Nimodipine Nanoparticles: A Promising Approach for Glaucoma Management

open access: yesPharmaceutics
Background/Objectives: Glaucoma is a multifactorial eye disease that can cause optic nerve damage and irreversible blindness. It is considered a significant public health problem worldwide. Topical intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering eye preparations are

Putative trait‐based retention of oral‐derived microbes along the oral–gut axis in bamboo‐eating pandas

open access: yesiMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Compared with the two herbivorous comparison species, pandas showed higher estimated oral‐source contributions and enrichment of microbial traits associated with facultative anaerobiosis, biofilm formation, and stress tolerance. These patterns are consistent with a model in which greater oral microbial input and putative host filtering may jointly ...

Deciphering transcriptome complexity via long‐read sequencing

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
Long‐read sequencing is transforming transcriptomics from gene‐level quantification to isoform‐resolved interpretation by directly resolving full‐length transcript structures, transcription in repetitive regions, and linked molecular features. This review provides an end‐to‐end roadmap covering sequencing platforms, library preparation strategies ...

Gut Enterococcus faecium derived leucic acid mediates the antiobesity effect of dietary fiber

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
This study identified Enterococcus faecium as a gut bacterium with anti‐obesity activity, which alleviated adipocyte hypertrophy, dyslipidemia, and hepatic steatosis by converting leucine into leucic acid (LEA) to regulate mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation.
