New research indicates reef passes — channels that cut through coral reefs and serve as conduits for ocean water and nutrients — are shaped by island rivers.
In a landmark global study, scientists have uncovered far greater diversity and flexibility in mosquito feeding patterns than previously thought, challenging long-held assumptions about how the disease-carrying insects select their hosts.
Published in Global Ecology and Biogeography, the findings highlight the pressing need to reconcile how we track and predict mosquito-driven disease transmission in a changing climate - which would have far-reaching implications for disease transmission.
One of the causes of infertility is abnormal chromosome function in oocytes. New research from Kyushu University has revealed an unexpected novel function of the histone modification H3K4me3: stabilizing chromosomes and spindles in mature mouse oocytes.
MIT engineers found that fluid between cells plays a major role in how tissues respond when squeezed, pressed, or physically deformed, potentially influencing how they adapt to conditions such as aging, cancer, diabetes, and certain neuromuscular diseases.
An Osaka Metropolitan University-led research team established a replicable method for producing canine MSCs using iPS cells.
