Auxin response and PIN‐mediated transport in chlorophyte algae

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Like multicellular plants, green algae respond to auxin and move it across their cells. However, their PIN‐like proteins do not act like plant auxin exporters, suggesting that basic auxin transport evolved early and specialized directional transport appeared later in plant evolution.

Transfer of paracetamol across the placenta and fetal blood–brain barriers and its safety for use in pregnancy

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Paracetamol (acetaminophen) is commonly taken during pregnancy for pain and fever. To gain a more comprehensive understanding of paracetamol's effects during pregnancy, several elements need to be examined including the transfer of paracetamol across the placenta and into the developing brain, the short‐ and long‐term effects of ...

Four Decades of Research at the MADE Site and Beyond: Advancing the Understanding and Modeling of Solute Transport in Heterogeneous Media

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 4, December 2026.
Abstract Spatial heterogeneity, manifested as strong variability in hydraulic conductivity (K) within geological formations, exerts a fundamental control on groundwater flow and solute transport. Because K can vary over multiple orders of magnitude in complex three‐dimensional patterns, predicting contaminant plume migration remains a long‐standing ...

Advancing tritium self-sufficiency in fusion power plants: insights from the BABY experiment

Nuclear Fusion
In the pursuit of fusion power, achieving tritium self-sufficiency stands as a pivotal challenge. Tritium breeding within molten salts is a critical aspect of next-generation fusion reactors, yet experimental measurements of Tritium Breeding Ratio (TBR ...

Lactate Metabolism: Separating Correlation From Causation

BioEssays, Volume 48, Issue 9, September 2026.
Elevated lactate is often interpreted as the cause of pathology, when it more commonly reflects underlying metabolic state. This review separates correlation from causation and highlights how advances in technology have transformed our understanding of lactate biology. ABSTRACT Lactate is among the most frequently measured metabolites in physiology and

Synthesis and Characterization of Tritium‐Labeled Neuropeptide Y Y5 Receptor Ligands Derived From CGP71683A

Archiv der Pharmazie, Volume 359, Issue 8, August 2026.
From a synthesized series of 2,4‐diaminoquinazoline‐type Y5R ligands, three were prepared as tritium‐labeled compounds and characterized by saturation equilibrium binding at HEC‐1B‐hY5R cells. [3H]32 was further applied in a competition binding assay. High non‐specific binding of the radioligands prompted investigation of material‐dependent adsorption.

Machine Learning‐Based Profiling of Urinary Volatile Organic Compounds Reveals Distinct Diagnostic Signatures for Gastric Cancer

Cancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Gastric cancer (GC) is a leading cause of cancer‐related mortality worldwide, often diagnosed at advanced stages due to the absence of specific symptoms. This study aimed to explore the potential of urinary volatile organic compounds (VOCs) as non‐invasive biomarkers for gastric cancer diagnosis.
