Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) plays a key role in several biochemical pathways and is an attractive target for pharmacological intervention. We prepared a series of analogs of a highly selective thiazolidinethione inhibitor of GSK-3. The structure-activity relationship indicated a precise structural requirement for potent inhibition.

Lumpfish, , have historically been harvested throughout Atlantic Canada and are increasingly in demand as a solution to controlling sea lice in Atlantic salmon farms-a process which involves both the domestication and the transfer of lumpfish between geographic regions. At present, little is known regarding population structure and diversity of wild lumpfish in Atlantic Canada, limiting attempts to assess the potential impacts of escaped lumpfish individuals from salmon pens on currently at-risk wild populations. Here, we characterize the spatial population structure and genomic-environmental associations of wild populations of lumpfish throughout the Northwest Atlantic using both 70K SNP array data and whole-genome re-sequencing data (WGS).
