Human cytomegalovirus RNA2.7 inhibits ferroptosis by upregulating ferritin and GSH via promoting ZNF395 degradation. by Mingyi Xu, Shan Ruan, Jingxuan Sun, Jianming Li, Dan Chen, Yanping Ma, Ying Qi, Zhongyang Liu, Qiang Ruan, Yujing Huang

“…The results further showed that RNA2.7 inhibited ferroptosis via enhancing Ferritin Heavy Chain 1 (FTH1) and Solute Carrier Family 7 Member 11 (SLC7A11) expression in Erastin treated cells without involving other viral components. Pooled Genome-wide CRISPR screening revealed zinc finger protein 395 (ZNF395) as a new regulator repressing the expression of FTH1 and SLC7A11. …”

Stock Dynamics of Female Red King Crab in a Small Bay of the Barents Sea in Relation to Environmental Factors by Alexander G. Dvoretsky, Vladimir G. Dvoretsky

“…Positive relationships were registered between temperature and stock indices for 15–19-year-old females at lag 4 and for 10–14-year-old females at lag 10, supporting the idea of higher survival rates of juveniles and their rapid development being a response to a pool of warm waters. Both redundancy and correlation analyses revealed seawater temperatures in June–August being the most important predictors of female abundance and biomass, indicating that favorable temperature conditions in the first 3 months of crab benthic life result in high survivorship rates for red king crabs.…”
