Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.Exposure to artificial light at night (ALAN), particularly at blue wavelengths, disrupts circadian rhythms by suppressing melatonin, thereby increasing cancer susceptibility. This systematic review consolidates evidence linking prolonged ALAN exposure to an elevated risk of breast and prostate tumors.

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 5, July 2026.ABSTRACT Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) exhibit extensive genomic diversity shaped by domestication, life history and geographic origin. To advance the development of a comprehensive pangenome reference, we present new de novo genome assemblies of two genetically and ecologically distinct lines: Whale Rock (WR; wild, landlocked, Central California)

Mechanosensitivity is an essential component of phototransduction in vertebrate rods. [PDF]
, 2020 Photoreceptors are specialized cells devoted to the transduction of the incoming visual signals. Rods are able also to shed from their tip old disks and to synthesize at the base of the outer segment (OS) new disks.

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 4, July/August 2026.ABSTRACT Giardia lamblia, a protozoan parasite that causes diarrhea in humans, contains two centrins implicated in cellular morphology and cell division. To identify proteins interacting with each G. lamblia centrin (GlCent), we performed a yeast two‐hybrid assay.

Aggregate, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.This review surveys eukaryotic cilia as putative quantum‐enabled sensory and regulatory centers. It highlights their multifaceted roles in the cell, focuses on the nontrivial roles of quantum mechanics in their membrane and cytoskeletal proteins, and introduces the essential building blocks enabling quantum properties to survive in the warm, wet, and ...

Intermediate processes in phototransduction: A study in Drosophila mutants
, 1980 A variety of procedures were used to modify the light response of Drosophila photoreceptors in order to find out if these manipulations produce effects that mimic some aspects of light adaptation.

, 2022 A revised computational model of circadian phototransduction is presented. The first step was to characterize the spectral sensitivity of the retinal circuit using suppression of the synthesis of melatonin by the pineal gland at night as the outcome ...

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2018 Cryptochromes (CRYs) are a class of flavoproteins that sense blue light. In animals, CRYs are expressed in the eyes and in the clock neurons that control sleep/wake cycles and are implied in the generation and/or entrainment of circadian rhythmicity ...

Retention of the Full Visual Opsin Repertoire in Some Australian Cryptozoic Lizards
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.This study investigates the link between visual evolution and fossorial habits in the endemic Australian skink genus Lerista. We provide evidence for positive site‐specific selection in all 4 cone opsins, as well as relaxed selection specific to LWS. We also provide evidence of selection linked to limb reduction, an indicator of fossorial adaptation ...
