Mitochondrial peptide MOTS‐c suppresses systemic and cardiac inflammasome activation in a diabetic rat model

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 8, Page 3742-3752, 1 August 2026.
Abstract Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with chronic systemic and cardiac inflammation, contributing to the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy. The mitochondrial‐derived peptide mitochondrial open reading frame of the 12S rRNA type‐C (MOTS‐c) has emerged as a promising regulator of metabolic and inflammatory pathways.

Calibration of a Neural Network Ocean Closure for Improved Mean State and Variability

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.
Abstract Global ocean models exhibit biases in the mean state and variability, particularly at coarse resolution, where mesoscale eddies are unresolved. To address these biases, parameterization coefficients are typically tuned ad hoc. Here, we formulate parameter tuning as a calibration problem using Ensemble Kalman Inversion (EKI).

This article considers some fundamental elements of Vernon Lee’s critical theory by focussing attention on her criticisms of Walter Savage Landor, whose ‘classical’ or ‘rhetorical’ style she attributes to the writer’s lack of ‘feeling’. Her arguments show the subtle ways in which aesthetics and ethics were connected in her thought, and give a ...
