This study developed a novel mouse model with tamoxifen-inducible knockout of the Gnpat gene, enabling late-onset plasmalogen deficiency to investigate its role in Alzheimer's disease. The model exhibited significant plasmalogen reduction and associated behavioral and nerve function changes, providing a valuable tool for future research on plasmalogen involvement in neurodegeneration and potential therapies.

Environmental stress from deforestation, driven by rapidly growing palm oil production and agricultural expansion, heightens human-animal interactions, fostering zoonotic diseases. Climate change and altered weather patterns are boosting vector populations and pathogen evolution that enhances the transmission of vector-borne infections.This study evaluates One Health strategies used by southeast Asian countries for brucellosis, anthrax, and scrub typhus

This research conducted semi-structured interviews to investigate how secondary school students in England make sense of different creative uses of metaphor and metonymy in a sample of slogans shared on social media for the Global Climate Strikes and #FridaysForFuture. The findings suggest that different creative uses prompted different kinds of thinking about climate change and its relevance to students’ personal lives.
