RNF213 Is an Interferon‐Stimulated Gene That Targets Influenza A Virus NP and Activates MDA5 to Restrict Infection

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 31, 4 June 2026.
RNF213 is characterized as a dual‐functional antiviral effector. It directly mediates the degradation of the influenza A virus nucleoprotein (NP) while simultaneously activating the MDA5‐mediated innate immune signaling pathway. This coordinated response establishes a powerful host defense system against viral infection. ABSTRACT Influenza A virus (IAV)

Microstructural Evidence for Early Childhood Stress in a Community in Transition at Hisban, Jordan

American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 190, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Identification of stress across infancy and childhood can reflect maternal and environmental influences on early life health. In the 19th century community of Hisban, many infants died before 2 years of age with evidence of metabolic disease, including rickets, that likely ties with maternal health.

Elsholtzia yajiangensis (Lamiaceae), a New Species From Sichuan, China

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Adds to the understanding of species diversity in the taxonomically challenging genus Elsholtzia, particularly in the biodiversity hotspot of the Hengduan Mountains. Demonstrates the utility of combining shallow whole‐genome sequencing and morphometrics in resolving species boundaries in closely related shrubby taxa.
