Microbial Contributions to Primate Reproduction
Evolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, Volume 35, Issue 1, March 2026.ABSTRACT Reproduction is a complex process, and microbes play a far greater role than previously imagined. This review explores the ways that microbiomes influence the rich tapestry of reproductive processes and outcomes within the primate lineage, including pre‐copulatory and post‐copulatory mechanisms.

Generation of Mice Harboring Bicc1 Conditional Null Alleles
genesis, Volume 64, Issue 1, February 2026.ABSTRACT Bicaudal C1 (Bicc1) encodes an RNA‐binding protein critical for many organ development and epithelial tissue homeostasis. Bicc1 null mutations have been shown to lead to the development of polycystic kidney disease (PKD) and death at an early prenatal stage.

Role of Acid‐Sensing Ion Channels 1a in the Regulation of Obesity and the Gut Microbiota
Obesity, Volume 34, Issue 2, Page 372-381, February 2026.ABSTRACT Objective Acid‐sensing ion channels are proton‐activated ion channels predominantly found in the nervous system. They are well known to affect metabolic and neurological health, yet their role in obesity and gut physiology remains unclear. This study investigates how systemic deletion of Asic1a influences obesity, metabolic, and gut‐based ...

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, February 2026.Abstract This article presents two clinical cases of bilateral laparoscopic ovariectomy in Dexter heifers used as leisure animals to eliminate problematic sexual behaviour. Initial standing flank laparoscopy in one heifer failed due to anatomical limitations.

The absence of both RIBC1 and RIBC2 induces decreased sperm motility and litter size in male mice
Andrology, Volume 14, Issue 2, Page 545-554, February 2026.Abstract Background RIBC1 (RIB43A domain with coiled‐coils 1) and RIBC2 (RIB43A domain with coiled‐coils 2) are homolog proteins of RIB43a which is localized to microtubules in the cilia and flagella of unicellular organisms. Cryo‐electron microscopy and artificial intelligence studies showed that RIBC1 and RIBC2 are microtubule inner proteins (MIPs ...

Andrology, Volume 14, Issue 2, Page 555-570, February 2026.Abstract Background Predicting male fertility in farm animals remains a challenge. Seminal plasma (SP) contains a high amount of heterogeneous seminal extracellular vesicles (sEVs), believed involved in reproductive processes and maybe key to understanding male fertility.

hnRNPU Safeguards Oocyte Development and Female Fertility via Regulation of Alternative Splicing
The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 2, 31 January 2026.Heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein U (hnRNPU) is essential for oocyte development and female fertility. Oocyte‐specific deletion of Hnrnpu leads to follicular arrest, impaired meiotic maturation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and infertility.

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 5, 27 January 2026.Rice gall dwarf virus (RGDV), transmitted biparentally by leafhopper vector to their offspring, exploits the capsid protein to induce inheritable ovarian apoptosis via insulin‐driven PI3K/AKT/FoxO signaling axis. This mechanism enhances infection but reduces female reproductive fitness, causing inefficient maternal transmission.
