One day of environment‐induced heat stress causes injury to the murine kidney

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Environment‐induced heat stress (EIHS) results from sustained body temperature elevation owing to prolonged exposure to heat and humidity. We hypothesized that EIHS would cause kidney injury and cellular dysfunction. To test this hypothesis, female C57 mice were exposed to EIHS (n = 14; 37.6°C, 42.0% relative humidity) or thermoneutral (TN ...

Deletion of Astrocytic TNFR1 Attenuates Hyperexcitability and Initiation of Epileptogenesis

Glia, Volume 74, Issue 9, September 2026.
Inducible, astrocyte‐specific deletion of TNFR1 reduces basal EEG spectral power. Loss of astrocytic TNFR1 attenuates acute seizure activity in two distinct experimental models of epilepsy. Deletion of TNFR1 in astrocytes limits epilepsy development and hippocampal pathology in a mouse model of temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis ...

ABSTRACT In response to the increasing volume of parcels, last‐mile delivery innovations are exploring the integration of multiple delivery modes. The most prominent examples are delivery vans that, next to being the base for the delivery tasks of their human drivers, also function as mobile launching platforms for drones or autonomous delivery robots.

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.
Blow flies (Diptera: Calliphoridae) perform important yet often overlooked roles in ecosystems as decomposers, pollinators and vectors of disease. Central to these functions are their associations with microbial communities, which are maintained through close contact with diverse microbe‐rich substrates such as carrion, dung and flowers.
