The impacts of biological invasions

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1406-1462, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

MiR‐21‐5p Protects Embryonic Growth and Heart Function During Developmental Hypoxia by Dampening HIF Responses and Altering Gene Expression

open access: yesComprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 3, June 2026.
miR‐21‐5p protects embryonic growth and heart function during developmental hypoxia by dampening HIF responses and shifting gene networks toward improved cardiomyocyte survival and calcium handling. This work identifies miR‐21‐5p as a promising therapeutic target for preventing fetal growth restriction and cardiovascular impairment in high‐risk ...

Chronic Low‐Dose Unsymmetrical Dimethylhydrazine Exposure in Rats: Multiorgan Mechanisms and Biomarker Identification

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 6, Page 1987-2002, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine (UDMH), a highly toxic rocket propellant with known multiorgan effects, requires urgent characterization of its chronic low‐dose toxicity. Using an integrated approach including exploratory transcriptomics (n = 3/group) and metabolomic (n = 4/group) approaches in male Sprague–Dawley rats exposed to high‐dose ...

Automated Profiling of Social Behaviors to Assess the Genetic Basis of Evolution of Aggressive Behaviors in Astyanax mexicanus

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 345, Issue 5, Page 486-497, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Across the animal kingdom, social behaviors such as aggression are critical for survival and reproductive success. While there is significant variation in social behaviors within and between species, the genetic mechanisms underlying natural variation in social behaviors are poorly understood.
