The Gαo Activator Mastoparan-7 Promotes Dendritic Spine Formation in Hippocampal Neurons
Neural Plasticity, 2016 Mastoparan-7 (Mas-7), an analogue of the peptide mastoparan, which is derived from wasp venom, is a direct activator of Pertussis toxin- (PTX-) sensitive G proteins.

Wnt3a ligand facilitates autophagy in hippocampal neurons by modulating a novel GSK-3β-AMPK axis
Cell Communication and Signaling, 2018 Background In the adult central nervous system (CNS), Wnt signaling regulates dendritic structure and synaptic plasticity. The Wnt signaling pathway can be divided into the canonical (β-catenin-dependent) and non-canonical pathways.

Advancing conservation breeding programs for marine invertebrates
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract In the face of ecosystem change and biodiversity loss caused by climate change and other stressors, conservation breeding, or captive breeding, with the aim of reintroduction for wild population recovery, is an emerging tool for preventing species’ extinction and rehabilitating ecosystems.

A framework for maximizing the benefit from retaining regrowth on private land
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Conservation interventions often have lower‐than‐desired positive impacts, as revealed by retrospective counterfactual‐based evaluations. To address this, a prospective counterfactual‐based approach can be used to estimate potential benefits and design conservation interventions to maximize outcomes. We developed a framework for estimating the

World Water Policy, Volume 12, Issue 3, August 2026.ABSTRACT Bengaluru, a primary metropolitan centre in India, is currently grappling with the dual crises of urban flooding and severe groundwater depletion. These challenges are driven by rapid urbanization, which has seen built‐up areas increase from 42% to 86% over two decades, resulting in a dramatic loss of vegetation and wetlands.

Changes in the transformative potential of action proposals in Finnish Red Lists from 1986 to 2019
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.Abstract Red lists provide critical knowledge regarding biodiversity decline, especially in Finland, where broad assessments have been made regularly since the 1980s. They deliver information on the threat status of species and ecosystems, propose actions to guide conservation policy, and have the potential to spur transformative change.
