Seed viability and longevity underpin forest regeneration under changing environmental conditions. European beech ( Fagus sylvatica L.) produces intermediate seeds that gradually lose viability during storage, largely through oxidative stress, which makes redox homeostasis centra...

Liver X receptor (LXR) signaling in macrophage inflammation and cardiometabolic disease.
Cardiometabolic diseases profoundly remodel tissue immune landscapes, characterized by the accumulation of diverse macrophage subtypes. Among these, lipid-associated macrophages (LAMs) have emerged as an important subset that is frequently observed in cardiometabolically affected...

Singlet Oxygen-Responsive MRI Contrast Agents
Abstract In vivo imaging detection of singlet oxygen (1O2) produced by photodynamic therapy remains a challenge. To address this unmet necessity, two Gd3+-based multicyclic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) probes 1 and 2 were synthesized and characterized for their ability to rea...

Abstract The Nicaraguan lake system, comprising two Great Lakes and several isolated crater lakes, is a natural laboratory for investigating how environmental heterogeneity and isolation shape biodiversity and a classic model for Midas cichlid diversification. We asked whether la...

We present an oscillator-driven femtosecond transient microspectroscopy system based on supercontinuum generation in a photonic crystal fiber (PCF). The system operates at 80 MHz without pulse amplification, enabling high-sensitivity measurements with an RMS noise level below 10...

Drought stress is one of the most significant challenges for global agriculture, adversely affecting crop yields and food security. In recent years, microbial biostimulants have emerged as a promising solution to enhance plant resilience against such abiotic stresses. This review...

Hypothyroidism Improves Survival in Experimental Peritonitis
Abstract Hypothyroidism decreases the basal metabolic rate. Using three models of peritonitis, intraperitoneal LPS plus Zymosan challenge, cecal slurry-induced intraperitoneal infection, and cecal ligation and puncture, we demonstrate that hypothyroid mice show enhanced survival...

Abstract RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) are valuable probes of both Milky Way assembly and stellar-evolution physics. Using a sample 6240 RRLs obtained in the first year of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey, we investigate the metallicity of RRLs and its correlation w...

Abstract We present the catalog of RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) observed in the first year of operations of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey. This catalog contains 6240 RRLs out to ∼120 kpc from the Galactic center and over 12,000 individual epochs with homogeneous...

Marine heatwaves (MHWs) are prolonged anomalies of warm sea surface temperature (SST) that can disrupt marine ecosystems, physical climate processes, and human coastal activities. MHW definitions vary due to different stakeholders requirements, such as ecological scientists and c...

Introduction Identification of thyroid hormone system-disrupting chemicals (THSDC) requires a solid understanding of the mechanisms by which exposure leads to adverse outcomes in the thyroid hormone system (THS). Methods In this systematic review, we present the results from our...

The effects of participating in government-led citizens’ assemblies
Abstract Contemporary democracies face growing public disaffection and mistrust. Governments have tried to revert these trends by promoting participatory governance. Prior studies established how deliberation can empower citizens. However, whether these effects hold in real-life...

Diet quality and environmental sustainability: integrating dietary indices and planetary impacts
Dietary patterns are major determinants of nutritional status and environmental sustainability. Despite growing interest in sustainable diets, limited research has examined how dietary carbon footprints differ across age groups and how age-specific dietary behaviors interact with...

Towards a global actual evapotranspiration product for the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service
Abstract. Copernicus Land Monitoring Service (CLMS) produces biogeophysical maps of the global land surface. The CLMS portfolio so far did not include actual evapotranspiration (ETa), despite it being a direct link between the energy, water and carbon cycles and its importance fo...

Abstract Background In aquaculture, selection for disease resistance is typically based on mortality records from challenge tests performed on relatives of selection candidates. However, commercial success depends on limiting disease transmission, particularly the incidence and s...

Abstract A central objective of future collider experiments is to probe the structure of the Higgs potential, which requires access to trilinear scalar couplings, in particular the self-coupling of the observed Higgs boson. While this coupling is fixed in the Standard Model (SM),...

J-PAS: Semisupervised Sim-to-Obs Transfer for Robust Star–Galaxy–Quasar Classification
Abstract Modern astrophysics and cosmology increasingly rely on simulations and cross-survey analyses, yet differences in instrumentation, calibration, and modeling introduce distribution mismatches between simulated and observed datasets (domain shift). This occurs when the join...
