Organic and Inorganic Pollutants, Oxidative Stress Biomarkers, and Electrophoretic Protein Profiles in an Endangered Thresher Shark (Alopias vulpinus) From Southeastern Brazil: A Case Study January 16, 2026
A comprehensive screening of different environmental contaminants (total metals, thermostable metal fractions associated with detoxification, and persistent organic pollutants) was conducted in an endangered common thresher shark (Alopias vulpinus ) individual incidentally captured in southeastern Brazil. Stress biomarkers were assessed to evaluate physiological responses, and SDS-PAGE was applied to identify thermostable protein profiles. Most metals […]
Multi-omics reveals nitrate-induced oxidative stress and morphogenesis pathways in Morchella importuna January 16, 2026
Nitrate (NO(3) ^(-)) and ammonium (NH(4) ^(+)) are the two main forms of inorganic nitrogen (N) found in soil. Most macrofungi show a preference for specific forms of N; however, the mechanisms behind these preferences remain poorly understood. In this study, we explored the metabolic responses induced by NO(3) ^(-) and NH(4) ^(+) uptake and […]
Oenological tannins mitigate rotenone-induced mitochondrial impairments and oxidative stress, with concomitant detection of urolithin A in the brain January 16, 2026
Mitochondria are key organelles that supply energy to the brain, and their dysfunction contributes to neurotoxicity induced by environmental toxins such as rotenone. Recently, oenological tannins (OTs) and their colonic metabolite, urolithin A (UA), have been emphasized due to their potential neuroprotective activity. However, their role in counteracting toxin-induced mitochondrial impairments remains unclear. Therefore, this […]
Parkinson's disease LRRK2 mutations dysregulate iron homeostasis and promote oxidative stress and ferroptosis in human neurons and astrocytes January 16, 2026
CONCLUSIONS: Together, our findings demonstrate that LRRK2 mutations disrupt iron homeostasis across disease-relevant cell types and establish a discrete biochemical pathway linking LRRK2 signaling and vulnerability to ferroptosis. Ongoing work aims to further dissect the roles of Rab substrates in these pathways.
A long non-coding RNA, afu-254 , is required for the oxidative stress response, cell wall stress response, azole susceptibility and virulence in Aspergillus fumigatus January 16, 2026
Long non-coding RNAs play an important role in stress response in all forms of life; however, a tight regulation of lncRNAs is required for normal function. Abnormal expression of lncRNA is associated with uncontrolled cell growth in many forms of cancer. Recent studies have highlighted the role of lncRNAs in Aspergillus fumigatus in azole stress […]
