Human HspB1, HspB3, HspB5 and HspB8: Shaping these Disease Factors during Vertebrate Evolution

R. Benndorf, R. Velazquez, J. D. Zehr, S. L. Kosakovsky Pond, J. L. Martin, A. G. Lucaci

This study examines the evolutionary forces shaping four sHSPs (HspB1, HspB3, HspB5, HspB8) in vertebrates and links their selective pressures to disease-associated mutations.

The nature of mitotic forces in epithelial monolayers

V. K. Gupta, S. Nam, J. Camuglia, J. L. Martin, E. N. Sanders, L. E. O'Brien, A. C. Martin, T. Kim, O. Chaudhuri

This study identifies two distinct stages of mitotic force generation in epithelial monolayers: protrusive forces driving mitotic elongation and outward forces facilitating post-mitotic re-spreading.

Household and climate factors influence Aedes aegypti risk in the arid city of Huaquillas, Ecuador

J. L. Martin, A. M. Stewart-Ibarra, E. B. Ayala, E. A. Mordecai, R. Sippy, F. Heras, J. K. Blackburn, S. J. Ryan

This study identifies household and climate factors influencing Aedes aegypti presence in Huaquillas, Ecuador, finding that longer residency, higher occupancy, female-headed households, and unreliable water supply increase risk, while septic systems reduce it.
