Clinical investigations have suggested a potential link between cataracts and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, whether cataract has an impact on the progression of AD remains unclear. The objective of this research was to determine the relationship between cataracts and AD. A cataract model was established in APP/PS1 [mutant amyloid precursor protein (APP) and a mutant presenilin-1 (PS1) gene] mice via lens puncture. Behavio...

The rapid expansion of intensive aquaculture systems has caused escalating environmental challenges due to excessive nitrogenous waste accumulation, which surpasses the metabolic capacity of aquatic microbiota and elevates nitrite concentrations. As a pervasive environmental toxin, nitrite induces oxidative stress, disrupts metabolic homeostasis, and compromises gut microbiota and immune function in shrimp, leading to mass mor...

Aim Dispersal of plant propagules and their genes is crucial for plant responses to landscape heterogeneities, yet the mechanisms behind this dispersal remain unclear. Ficus species depend on wind‐borne fig wasps for pollination, but research on airflow effects on Ficus genetic structure has produced conflicting results. Our study aims to clarify the role of wind in shaping the genetic structure of such plants with wind‐borne...
