Background/Objectives: Oxidative stress is a key pathogenic factor in gastric diseases (GDs). Nutraceuticals with antioxidant activity derived from macroalgae represent promising preventive strategies...
A facultatively anaerobic, thermophilic, Gram-negative bacterium, strain sy37T, isolated from a deep-sea hydrothermal field and belonging to the candidate phylum WOR-3, was characterized in detail. Th...
Emerging organic contaminants (EOCs), including per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs), polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and antibiotics, persist i...
The 2016 El Niño was the strongest warm-phase of the El Niño-Southern Oscillation recorded to date over the 21st century, leading to the development of severe ocean surface temperature anomalies - mar...
The evolution of El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) under past and future climate change and its influence on marine ecosystems is highly debated. To examine links between tropical climate variabilit...
Microbially mediated manganese (Mn) oxidation is a key process in the biogeochemical cycling of Mn. While Shewanella is widely recognized for its metal-reducing capabilities, recent studies have shown...
Deep-sea extreme environments harbor microorganisms with unique adaptive mechanisms. Fungi play significant ecological roles in these ecosystems, yet the regulatory pathways governing their adaptation...
The subseafloor biosphere is one of the largest ecosystems on Earth, hosting dense populations of microbial cells. Microbial activity is critical to the Earth's geochemical cycles of major elements su...
Benthic prokaryotic communities in deep-sea sediments remain poorly studied. They are constrained by organic matter availability and oxygenation in warm deep-sea ecosystems. Here, we investigated bent...
Seamount ecosystems are increasingly exposed to rapid oceanographic change, including warming waters, declining oxygen concentrations, and the upward migration of carbonate saturation horizons. Togeth...
Understanding the current and future trajectories of critical habitats is essential for biodiversity conservation and ecosystem management, especially in semi-enclosed environments such as the Mediter...
Marine adhesive organisms commonly employ epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like domains for wet attachment, yet the molecular mechanisms guiding their self-assembly remain elusive. Here, we report a disu...
The southern coast of Europe has been at the center of archaeological debates contrasting the social and cognitive capabilities of Neanderthals and modern humans. Early evidence of marine resource exp...
Ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE) is proposed as a potential tool to remove atmospheric CO2 and mitigate climate change. However, the effects of OAE on marine protozoa remain poorly understood. In th...
Anthracnose, caused by Colletotrichum species, inflicts severe economic losses on agricultural crops. This study investigated C16 Fengycin B from a deep-sea Bacillus strain against Colletotrichum fior...
As a prevalent congener of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), 2,2',4,4'-tetrabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-47) poses significant environmental and health risks due to its persistence and bioaccumulati...
Oxygen isotope measurements of seawater (δ18Ow) are an important tool in the study of climate, oceanography, and hydrology, both today and in the past. δ18Ow and salinity are controlled by similar hyd...
The faunas around methane seeps in the deep sea thrive on an in-situ food source and are thus expected to show no latitudinal gradients in their diversity. An analysis of 478 modern and 824 fossil (Cr...
In recent years, Marine Natural Products (MNPs) have emerged as a significant source for anticancer drug discovery, as many natural products can offer structural diversity, unique mechanisms of action...
Cyclothone (bristlemouths) is considered the most numerically abundant genus of fish in the world and primarily inhabits the mesopelagic and bathypelagic ocean zones. Cyclothone body fossils date to t...
