This study reveals that while the 18S rRNA gene of *Babesia ovis* exhibits low genetic diversity within an enzootic focus in eastern Bosnia and Herzegovina, the presence of multiple rare haplotypes across different villages and seasons indicates that the parasite is not uniform and requires higher-resolution markers and repeated sampling to fully characterize its local genetic structure.
This study demonstrates that local habitat characteristics, specifically the distinction between forest fragments and organic crops, are more significant than urban proximity in shaping the structure, composition, and interaction networks of cavity-nesting hymenopteran communities, primarily through species turnover and interaction rewiring rather than simple species loss.
This study establishes a reconstructable human multicellular lung organoid model (hiLOFM) incorporating stromal and macrophage components that effectively mimics the complex pathophysiology of pulmonary fibrosis and enables the assessment of pharmacological responses to both established antifibrotics and novel therapeutics.
This study demonstrates that horses can discriminate between human chemical cues of sadness and disgust, exhibiting distinct physiological and behavioral responses—such as calmness to sadness and heightened arousal to disgust—that align with the specific arousal levels of these emotions when presented alongside matching visual and auditory cues.
This study reports the first isolation of Cell fusing agent virus and Culex flavivirus from Australian mosquitoes, the creation of their first infectious clones, and the development of novel monoclonal antibodies, collectively providing essential new tools to advance research on insect-specific flaviviruses and mosquito-borne disease control.
This study developed a species-specific immunological framework using recombinant giant panda calprotectin subunits and generated monoclonal antibodies to establish a semi-quantitative sandwich ELISA system for non-invasive monitoring of intestinal inflammation in giant pandas, addressing a critical gap in wildlife health surveillance.
This study demonstrates that using the adult *Drosophila* brain connectome as a fixed structural prior for embodied control enables superior adaptability and robustness across diverse locomotion tasks, body morphologies, and environmental complexities compared to standard artificial neural networks.
This study demonstrates that a gap junction enhancer (PQ) modulates antineoplastic drug responses in 3D colorectal cancer spheroids in a manner dependent on drug type, dosage, and the presence of fibroblasts, highlighting the necessity of using multicellular co-culture models to accurately evaluate context-specific therapeutic interactions.
MolSanity introduces a comprehensive reliability audit framework for molecular graph neural network feature attributions, revealing that faithfulness to the model does not correlate with chemical correctness or ground-truth localization, particularly under scaffold shifts, thereby demonstrating that explanation reliability must be evaluated on a case-by-case basis rather than assumed from faithfulness metrics alone.
This paper proposes a novel calibration framework that bridges the computational efficiency of macroscopic epidemic models with the structural accuracy of microscopic models by introducing a calibrated parameter to account for household clustering, thereby significantly reducing computation time while maintaining high fidelity to individual-level dynamics.
