The paper identifies the telencephalon as a neuronal substrate for systemic inflammatory responses in teleosts, showing polyamine metabolism changes and behavioral fever responses.

A niche-adapted brain microbiome in salmonids at homeostasis

The paper identifies a resident bacterial community in the brains of healthy salmonids and shows its relationship to gut and blood microbiomes, with adaptations for brain colonization.

Secretory IgM (sIgM) is an ancient master regulator of microbiota homeostasis and metabolism

This study shows that IgM, not just sIgA and sIgT, is essential for microbiota homeostasis and metabolism in vertebrates, challenging the current understanding of sIg roles.

Taxonomic practice, creativity, and fashion: What's in a spider name?

This study analyzes 48,464 spider species names to show how naming practices have changed over time and space, with increasing use of cultural references and geography.
