Who prefers the dark? Daily activity of dung beetles from an Amazonian region

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Daily activity patterns shape how dung beetle species coexist in Amazonian forests, revealing temporal niches that reduce competition and structure biodiversity. We compared species richness, abundance and assemblage composition of dung beetles sampled during day and night in a conserved terra‐firme forest in the Brazilian Amazon. Although richness and

A guide to the types, structures, and multifaceted functions of matrix metalloproteinases in cancer

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) orchestrate cancer progression and metastasis through proteolytic and non‐proteolytic actions. By remodeling the tumor microenvironment, enhancing growth factor availability, and modulating cell behavior, MMPs promote proliferation, migration or invasion, and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition. Alongside extracellular

TbTim20 facilitates protein import at a low membrane potential in trypanosomes lacking the mitochondrial genome

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Protein import into mitochondria relies on TIM complexes and the membrane potential. Trypanosoma brucei has a unique TIM complex, and the role of one subunit, TbTim20, has remained unclear. Here, we show that TbTim20 is essential in cells lacking mitochondrial DNA. The importance of TbTim20 increases as the membrane potential decreases.

Transcriptional regulation of human NMNAT2: insights from 3D genome sequencing and bioinformatics

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
NMNAT2 is a valuable drug target, as low levels increase the risk of neurodegeneration. We employed 4C‐seq to identify NMNAT2 regulatory regions in the human genome, revealing distinct interactomes of the NMNAT2 promoter in undifferentiated and neuron‐like SH‐SY5Y cells. Additionally, we uncovered NMNAT2‐associated genes and transcription factors. This

Analysis of Sea Turtle Bycatch by Andalusia Pelagic Longline Fleet in the Northeast Atlantic

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Northeast Atlantic is one of the most crucial foraging grounds for juvenile loggerhead (Caretta caretta) and leatherback turtles (Dermochelys coriacea), while also serving as an important fishing area for the Andalusia surface longline fishery. The main aim of present study is to assess the sea turtle interaction with the Andalusia pelagic

Mapping Escolar (Lepidocybium flavobrunneum) in Motion: Oceanographic Forces Shaping Its Habitat in the Southwestern South Atlantic, With Insights From Fishers' Perceptions

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lepidocybium flavobrunneum [Smith, 1843], commonly known as escolar, is a large pelagic species, important for global and local fisheries, particularly in the southwestern South Atlantic Ocean (SWAO), where it constitutes a significant portion of the catch.

Metabolic Health Phenotypes Among Middle‐ to Older‐Aged Adults Living With and Without Obesity: Relationships With Hepatic Health Indicators

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
We examined liver health indicators among obese and nonobese metabolic health phenotypes. In fully adjusted models, higher fatty liver index (FLI) scores and liver enzyme concentrations of gamma‐glutamyl transferase (GGT) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) were associated with lower likelihood of metabolically healthy obese (MHO) and nonobese (MHNO ...

Towards red listing understudied tropical insects: A case study of the dung beetles of Sabah, Malaysian Borneo

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
We performed an IUCN Red List assessment for 159 dung beetle species from Sabah, Malaysian Borneo. Due to the lack of population demographic data, only Criterion B (i.e. geographic range) could be applied. Our findings show that the IUCN Red List Criteria can be applied to insect species based solely on occurrence data but highlight the importance of ...

Seasonal dynamics in terrestrial insect communities after the impact of the Brumadinho tailings dam disaster

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Despite severe habitat loss, insect species richness, seasonal fluctuations in richness and temporal β‐diversity did not differ significantly among forests adjacent to the mudflow and reference sites. We found higher wet‐season species richness for ants, bees, butterflies and dung beetles, while termites showed no seasonal change; β‐diversity was ...
