Familial Resilience in Crisis: Navigating the Mediating Landscape of Depressive Symptoms Between Uncertainty Stress and Suicide Behavior Among Chinese University Students by Yan N, Zhou T, Hu M, Cai Y, Qi L, Shiferaw BD, Wang W, Miao C

“…Specifically, the paths from uncertainty stress to depressive symptoms (interact effect = − 0.06, P< 0.001) and depressive symptoms to suicide behavior (interact effect = − 0.08, P< 0.01) were weakened in the context of higher family relationship.Conclusion: Depressive symptoms play a crucial role in bridging uncertainty stress and suicide behavior, while the family relationship can buffer the mediation impact of depressive symptoms. …”

The peroxisome protein translocation machinery is developmentally regulated in the fungus Podospora anserina by Beatriz Aguirre-López, Fernando Suaste-Olmos, Leonardo Peraza-Reyes

“…Here we show that PEX13 abundance in hyphae is maintained at low levels by the activity of the peroxisome ubiquitin ligase complex and the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme PEX4, in conjunction with PEX14, PEX5, and with the peroxin that bridges the ubiquitination and the docking/translocation machineries, PEX8. …”
