Rosemary metabolite carnosic acid opens Kv1.1 via its voltage sensor and corrects Kv1.1‐linked episodic ataxia in mice

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Episodic ataxia type 1 (EA1) is an autosomal dominant neurological disorder caused primarily by loss‐of‐function mutations in the voltage‐gated potassium channel Kv1.1 (KCNA1). Small molecules that restore Kv1.1 activity hold promise as targeted therapies for EA1, yet current pharmacological strategies remain limited ...

Feiwei Heji Enhances Antitumor Immunity by MLL4‐Dependent Regulation of Pyroptosis in Lung Cancer

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
Feiwei Heji suppresses lung tumor growth by downregulating MLL4 and activating caspase‐1/GSDMD‐associated pyroptosis. This pyroptosis‐related inflammatory response enhances CD8+ T‐cell‐mediated antitumor immunity, revealing an MLL4‐pyroptosis‐immune axis underlying the therapeutic activity of Feiwei Heji.

What Endocrinologists Should Know About Iodine: Population Deficiency, Individual Excess and Misinformation in the United Kingdom

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iodine deficiency, once considered eliminated in the United Kingdom, has re‐emerged, particularly among women of reproductive age, in whom requirements are increased during pregnancy and lactation. The declining consumption of dairy and white fish, the emerging use of unfortified plant‐based milk alternatives, and the absence of a national ...

Twelve principles for successful governance of community‐based coastal marine restoration

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Global agreements, such as the Global Biodiversity Framework, call for urgent, large‐scale action to halt biodiversity loss through a whole‐of‐society approach. Community‐based restoration can play a crucial role in achieving this goal, yet there remains limited understanding of what makes these projects effective and sustainable.

Assessing and strengthening community‐based coastal governance

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Community‐based coastal governance is essential for biodiversity conservation and sustainable livelihoods, yet many communities continue to face significant challenges in establishing and sustaining effective governance systems. We sought to improve understanding of the current status of community‐based coastal governance across five countries

Dietary modulation of antimicrobial peptides (HAMP and LEAP2) in Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) fed a phytobiotic functional diet: Integrated genomic characterisation and tissue‐specific expression

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are key components of the innate immune system in fish, providing rapid protection against microbial pathogens. Among these, the liver‐expressed antimicrobial peptides (LEAPs), comprising LEAP‐1 (hepcidin; HAMP) and LEAP‐2, play central roles in host defence and iron regulation.

Beyond Immunity: Functional Outcomes of Dietary Yeast and Seaweed β‐Glucans in Adult Canine Nutrition

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT β‐Glucans are functional compounds associated with health benefits; however, the physiological effects of different β‐glucan sources in dog foods remain incompletely understood. This study evaluated and compared the effects of β‐glucans derived from Euglena gracilis (seaweed) and Saccharomyces cerevisiae (yeast) on nutrient digestibility ...

Fatty Acid Profile in Field-Collected Seaweed, Lipid Extraction Optimization, and Food Functional Properties

Life
Macroalgae (seaweeds) represent a sustainable and alternative source of high-value fatty acids (FAs), including omega-3 (n-3) and omega-6 (n-6), which could help alleviate pressure on wild fish stocks and mitigate global overfishing.
