Dendritic Cell Migration: An Essential Step in Initiating Adaptive Immunity Across Tissues
Immunological Reviews, Volume 337, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Immune surveillance of tissues is primarily carried out by dendritic cells (DCs), which act as sentinels for the adaptive immune system. To accomplish this task, DCs migrate from tissues to regional lymph nodes, or from blood‐exposed regions of the spleen to the white pulp, to prime T cell responses. DC migration is a tightly regulated process

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Freshwater rock pools are ephemeral and fragile habitats that support specialised animal taxa. While distributed worldwide, these habitats are usually neglected and overlooked. We used DNA metabarcoding and metaphylogeographic approaches to study inter and intraspecific tardigrade biodiversity to identify their biogeographic patterns to ...

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 1, January 2026.The construction of dams and reservoirs to meet increasing water and electricity demands has significantly altered many natural river flows, posing threats to the ecological integrity of freshwater ecosystems. Environmental flows (e‐flows) have been advocated to mitigate the negative impacts of hydroelectric power generation and to maintain healthy ...

Praziquantel: its use in control of schistosomiasis in sub-Saharan Africa and current research needs [PDF]
, 2009 Treatment with praziquantel (PZQ) has become virtually the sole basis of schistosomiasis control in sub-Saharan Africa and elsewhere, and the drug is reviewed here in the context of the increasing rate that it is being used for this purpose. Attention is

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 46, December 11, 2025.The paper proposes that the root cause of aging is the loss of anatomical goal‐directedness after development. Using evolutionary neural cellular automata simulations, the authors show that after the organism has reached its developmental homeostatic setpoint (the adult morphology), the absence of target state to pursue leads to a drifting anatomical ...
