Engineering Nanocellulose Scaffolds: Property Modification Strategies and Mechanotransduction‐Driven Tissue Outcomes

open access: yesPolymers for Advanced Technologies, Volume 37, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Nanocellulose is being increasingly used in biomedical applications because of its biocompatibility, mechanical robustness, tunable surface chemistry, and adjustable rheology. This review evaluates recent strategies for engineering cellulose nanofibrils, nanocrystals, and bacterial nanocellulose into cell‐instructive scaffolds for skin, bone ...

Emergence, Challenges, and Opportunities for Chiral Nanocellulose Assemblies in Tissue Engineering and Wound Healing

open access: yesSmall Structures, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
This review explores chiral nanomaterials for tissue engineering and wound healing, specifically focusing on the potential of nanocellulose. The inherent chirality of nanocelluloses and their assemblies enables the creation of biomimetic scaffolds with unique biological interactions. Chiral nematic self‐assembly of cellulose nanocrystals, in particular,

Dynamic Sinking and Surface‐Area Based Decay Modeling Reduce Estimates of Gelatinous Zooplankton‐Mediated Carbon Export to the Deep Sea

open access: yesGlobal Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 40, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Gelatinous zooplankton (GZ) have been proposed as a potentially important but largely overlooked contributor to the biological carbon pump. However, estimates of GZ‐derived carbon transfer efficiency to the ocean floor reflect uncertainties in key parameters that govern carbon export, leading to contrasting interpretations of the role of GZ in

Genetics in the Ocean's Twilight Zone: Population Structure of the Silvery Lightfish Across Its Distribution Range

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The large estimates of mesopelagic fish biomass have long fuelled harvesting interests in the relatively untouched twilight zone of the ocean. The silvery lightfish—one of the most abundant species inhabiting the North Atlantic mesopelagic layer—is a candidate for such a fishery despite its enormous ecological importance and the insufficient ...

Salinity-mediated limitation of asexual reproduction in the colonial ascidian Polyandrocarpa zorritensis

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution
Ascidians are among the most common invasive marine invertebrates worldwide. Many species of non-indigenous ascidians (NIAs) have successfully colonized the Mediterranean Sea, notably within anthropized coastal lagoons and harbors.

Staring into a crystal ball: understanding evolution and development of in vivo aquatic organismal transparency

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution
Organismal transparency is an ecologically important trait that can provide camouflage advantages to diverse organisms. Transparent organisms are quite common—especially in oceans.

Ecología trófica de los ostreros Haematopus palliatus pitanay (Murphy 1925) y Haematopus ater (Vieillot et Oudart 1825) en mantos del tunicado Pyura praeputialis (Heller 1878) en la Bahía de Antofagasta, Chile Trophic ecology of the oystercatchers Haematopus palliatus pitanay (Murphy 1925) and Haematopus ater (Vieillot et Oudart 1825) on beds of the tunicate Pyura praeputialis (Heller 1878) in the Bay of Antofagasta, Chile

open access: yesRevista Chilena de Historia Natural, 2000
En Antofagasta, norte de Chile, coexisten dos especies de ostreros: Haematopus palliatus pitanay (ostrero blanco) y Haematopus ater (ostrero negro). Ambas especies depredan en un sistema rocoso intermareal peculiar cuya franja media se encuentra dominada
