Homo sapiens, industrialisation and the environmental mismatch hypothesis

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 580-601, April 2026.
ABSTRACT For the vast majority of the evolutionary history of Homo sapiens, a range of natural environments defined the parameters within which selection shaped human biology. Although human‐induced alterations to the terrestrial biosphere have been evident for over 10,000 years, the pace and scale of change has accelerated dramatically since the onset

Catalytic Amyloids: Turning Fibrils Into Biocatalysts

Chemistry – A European Journal, Volume 32, Issue 10, 9 March 2026.
Amyloids, traditionally associated with diseases, have emerged as versatile catalytic scaffolds. From natural amyloid sequences to bioinspired and de novo designs, we highlight strategies to construct catalytic active sites and anchor enzymes onto fibrils, creating versatile nanomaterials with tunable activities. ABSTRACT Amyloids have been regarded as

Soman induces endoplasmic reticulum stress and apoptosis of cerebral organoids via the GRP78‐ATF6‐CHOP signaling pathway

FEBS Open Bio
Soman is an organophosphorus compound that induces neurotoxicity. In addition to its direct toxic effects resulting from acetylcholine accumulation, neurotoxicity may also be exacerbated by inducing endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress.

Continuous‐Flow Photocatalytic Degradation of Glyphosate and Aminomethylphosphonic Acid Under Simulated Sunlight with TiO2‐Coated Poly(vinylidene fluoride) Membrane

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 21, 12 March 2026.
Glyphosate (GLY) and its primary metabolite, aminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA), are photodegraded using a poly(vinylidene fluoride) membrane with immobilized titanium dioxide (PVDF‐TiO2) in a continuous flow‐through operation under solar light. At optimized conditions, the PVDF‐TiO2 membrane achieved 95% GLY and 80% AMPA removal with •O2− as the ...

Investigating the Genetic Underpinnings of Ongoing Fall Armyworm (FAW) Range Expansion in Aotearoa New Zealand

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
We generated new genomic resources for the invasion front of fall armyworm in Oceania, confirming that the new invasions conform to the population structure initially identified in Benin. We also identified SNVs associated with insecticide resistance that should be a focus of future tracking of the invasion front and established populations.
