Reproduction and Development in Calcareous Sponges: A Panorama of the Last Two Centuries

open access: yesMolecular Reproduction and Development, Volume 93, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Nearly 200 years ago, scientists began examining reproductive cells in calcareous sponges (Calcarea, Porifera). Since then, 238 studies have been published, encompassing descriptions of gametes and embryos (including ultrastructural studies), life history, asexual reproduction, regeneration, and molecular aspects of development.

Multiple Roles of Protamine Kinase SRPK1 and Phosphatase PP1γ in Sperm Development

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, Volume 26, Issue 7, Page 42-56, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Protein phosphorylation regulates key events of male germ cell differentiation. In the testis, SRPK1 and PP1γ are involved in protamine phosphorylation and dephosphorylation, respectively, and their deregulation is linked to defective chromatin structure and male infertility.

The Combination of Nigella sativa Oil‐Based Nanoemulsion and Quercetin Alleviates Oxidative Stress From Exogenous Testosterone Through Antioxidant and Anti‐Inflammatory Mechanisms in Rats

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
Exogenous testosterone and stress can cause severe oxidative stress and inflammation in the testicles. To combat testicular damage caused by testosterone and stress, we developed a nanoemulsion containing quercetin and black seed oil. This innovative formulation significantly enhanced antioxidant defences, reduced inflammation and prevented ...

Cryptorchidism: Novel genetic insights into CCDC149 mutations

open access: yesAndrology, Volume 14, Issue 5, Page 1155-1163, July 2026.
Abstract Background Cryptorchidism, characterized by the failure of one or both testes to descend into the scrotum, is a common congenital condition that can lead to infertility and increased risk of testicular cancer. CCDC149, a coiled‐coil domain‐containing protein, has been implicated in various developmental processes, but its role in the male ...

Reproductive behaviour of the ocean triggerfish Canthidermis sufflamen (Tetraodontiformes: Balistidae) in the shallow waters of the marine‐protected area of El Hierro Island (Canary Islands)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 109, Issue 1, Page 27-36, July 2026.
Abstract The abundance of Canthidermis sufflamen has increased worldwide, including around the Canary Islands, due to global ocean warming. The reproductive behaviour of this species was studied within a marine‐protected area (MPA) and its adjacent areas off the island of El Hierro (Canary Islands).

Histological characterisation of gonadal sex differentiation in Malabar red snapper (Lutjanus malabaricus) for aquaculture advancement

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 109, Issue 1, Page 246-256, July 2026.
Abstract The Malabar red snapper (Lutjanus malabaricus) is a high‐value tropical marine species receiving growing attention for aquaculture development in Singapore and Southeast Asia. At present, seed production relies primarily on uncontrolled mass spawning in sea cages, a practice that lacks consistency, biosecurity and control of genetic ...

Radiographic Assessment of Bone Maturation: A Tool to Estimate Sexual Maturity in Common Dolphins (Delphinus delphis)?

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Accurate inference of sexual maturity is fundamental to interpreting marine mammal life histories and population structure. Using Bayesian logistic regression models with a hierarchical ordinal (HOF‐style) parameterisation and canonical analysis of principal coordinates (CAP), we evaluate skeletal metrics in the pectoral flippers of common ...

Life History Parameters of Indian Ocean Humpback Dolphins Sousa plumbea Off KwaZulu‐Natal, South Africa

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT For the effective conservation of coastal cetaceans, such as Indian Ocean humpback dolphin, Sousa plumbea, currently listed as “Endangered” by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN), information on its life history is urgently required.

Update of the risk assessment on emerging and novel brominated flame retardants in food

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract The European Commission asked EFSA to update its 2012 risk assessment on Emerging and Novel brominated flame retardants (BFRs) in food. Since the previous Opinion, further information was collected for a total of 27 BFRs. The CONTAM Panel concluded that TDBPP, DBPNG and TBNPA are considered genotoxic and carcinogenic.
