Plasma membrane damage limits replicative lifespan in yeast and induces premature senescence in human fibroblasts
Plasma membrane damage (PMD) occurs in all cell types due to environmental perturbation and cell-autonomous activities. However, cellular outcomes of...

Habitat suitability modeling of Aurelia jellyfish (Cnidaria, Scyphozoa) in the Gulf of Mexico suggests distinct species’ distributions based on tolerance limits
Aurelia is a genus of scyphozoan jellyfish with cosmopolitan distribution and a propensity to form large aggregations, or “blooms.” Along the...
