DOI: 10.1111/fwb.13427
Abstract: Amazonian goliath catfishes are widespread in the Amazon Basin. Recently, otolith ⁸⁷Sr:⁸⁶Sr analyses using laser ablation–multi‐collector–inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA‐MC‐ICPMS) revealed a >8,000 km trans‐Amazonian natal homing in Brachyplatystoma rousseauxii among fish caught and hatched… read more here.

DOI: 10.15252/embr.202356932
Abstract: Obesity is associated with metabolic disorders and chronic inflammation. However, the obesity‐associated metabolic contribution to inflammatory induction remains elusive. Here, we show that, compared with lean mice, CD4+ T cells from obese mice exhibit elevated… read more here.
