Behavioral Thermoregulation in Captive Fish: Molecular, Physiological, and Welfare Implications

N. Sanhueza, R. Fuentes, A. Aguilar, B. Carnicero, H. Mattos, Y. Rubalcaba, V. Melin, D. Contreras, S. Boltana

This study shows that allowing captive fish to regulate their temperature improves survival, physiology, and welfare, while lack of thermoregulation causes oxidative stress and DNA damage.

The unfolded protein response transcription factor XBP1s ameliorates Alzheimer`s disease by improving synaptic function and proteostasis

C. Duran Aniotz, C. Rivera Krstulovic, N. Poblete, A. O. Ardiles, M. L. Diaz Hung, C. M. P. Sabusap, Y. Gerakis, F. Cabral Miranda, J. Diaz, M. Fuentealba, E. Munoz, S. Espinosa, G. Matinez, G. Quiroz, G. Tamburini, , C. Hetz

This study shows that overexpressing the active form of XBP1 in neurons reduces amyloid deposits and improves synaptic function in Alzheimer's disease models.

Characterizing macroinvertebrate community composition and abundance in freshwater tidal wetlands of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta

R. Hartman, S. Sherman, D. Contreras, A. Furler, R. Kok

The paper compares two invertebrate sampling methods in tidal wetlands to assess their effectiveness in measuring abundance and community composition, finding sweep nets better reflect fish food availability and habitat differences.
