Full spatio-temporal analyses of migration and colonization in evolution—dense 3D mapping of cancer metastases provides new insights
12/01/2026 - The process of migration and colonization is important in evolution; for example, modern humans experienced multiple waves of migrations out of Africa. However, no data cover the spatio-temporal...
When honeybees come to town: Critical aspects of urban beekeeping and opportunities for regulation
- AbstractUrban areas are increasingly valued for their role in conserving wild pollinators. Honeybees are often regarded as ambassador species for pollinator conservation, and beekeeping is frequently...
Comparison of nutritional outcomes and complication profiles of commercial enteral nutrition and homemade homogenate in patients with dysphagia who are chronically immobilized
- ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to compare the nutritional outcomes and complications associated with homemade homogenate administered via nasogastric tube vs. a commercially available enteral...
Stepwise recombination suppression around the mating-type locus associated with a diploid-like life cycle in Schizothecium fungi
14/01/2026 - Recombination suppression often evolves around sex-determining loci and extends stepwise, resulting in adjacent regions with different levels of divergence between sex chromosomes, called...
An EGR1-dependent cascade modulates genome architecture at the CSF1R locus
15/01/2026 - The organization and dynamics of chromatin are key to regulating gene expression during myeloid cell differentiation. Sequence-specific transcription factors initiate and maintain a complex network...
