Hagenia abyssinica Extracts Against Snail Vectors
2026-08-24
A 2024 study compared aqueous, 70% ethanol, and chloroform-derived preparations from three Ethiopian plants against Biomphalaria and Bulinus snails, identifying Hagenia abyssinica as the only active plant in the tested panel. Its low 24-hour LC50 values and preliminary acute oral toxicity result support chemistry-guided follow-up, while the lack of field, nontarget-organism, and active-compound data limits immediate application.

ac4C–Gm26917 Control of Female Germline Stem Cells
2026-08-22
This Advanced Science study identifies an ac4C–Gm26917–EEF1A1–Rpl10 regulatory axis that sustains female germline stem cells by coordinating lncRNA stability, RNA–RNA proximity, and global translation efficiency. Integrated acRIP-seq, RIC-seq, and Ribo-seq data show that the principal effect is disruption of Gm26917-mediated recruitment of Rpl10 rather than direct modification of Rpl10 itself.
