Taxonomic and biological notes are given for the East Asian sawfly Pristiphora ribisi Togashi, 1990, injurious to Ribes. The following new synonyms of this species are proposed: Pristiphora (Pristiphora) anivskiensis Haris, 2006, syn. nov., Pristiphora (Pristiphora) nigrocoreana Haris Zsolnai, 2007, syn. nov. and Pristiphora grossulariae Anon., 1912 [a primary homonym of Pristiphora grossulariae Walsh, 1866], syn. nov. The lectotype of Pristiphora grossulariae Anon., 1912 is designated. Redescriptions of the adult and immature stages are given. The male is described for the first time. The life history and host plants are summarized. Its close relative, Pristiphora appendiculata (Hartig, 1837), is excluded from the fauna of Japan.

A comprehensive revision is presented of the Oriental and Australasian diving beetle genus Sharp, 1882 (Coleoptera: Dytiscidae: Dytiscinae: Aciliini) and seven junior subjective synonyms are proposed. Balfour-Browne, 1939, is a junior subjective synonym of Heller, 1934; Vazirani, 1969, of (Crotch, 1872); Blanchard, 1843, of (Aubé, 1838); and Heller, 1934, , Sharp, 1882, , and Satô, 1978, of (Wehncke, 1876). Finally, Anand et al.

Twenty-one new species of jumping spiders from five provinces of South China are described: (♂), (♂♀), (♂♀), (♂♀), (♂♀), (♂), (♂♀), (♂♀), (♀), (♂♀), (♂♀), (♂♀), (♂♀), (♂♀), (♂♀), (♂♀), (♂), (♂♀), (♂♀), (♂♀), and (♂♀). Prószyński, 2016, is proposed as a junior synonym of Prószyński, 2016. Three new combinations are proposed: (Andreeva, Hęciak & Prószyński, 1984), and (Wanless, 1984), transferred from , and (Peng, Gong & Kim, 2000), transferred from Thorell, 1869.

Accumulating evidence demonstrates that alpha-synuclein (α-syn) pathology associated with Parkinson's disease (PD) is not limited to the brain, as it also appears in a select number of peripheral tissues including the liver. In this study, we identified a number of PD-associated α-syn post-translational modifications in the livers of (Thy-1)-h[A30P] mice, a mouse model of familial PD expressing human α-syn harboring the A30P mutation driven by a neuron-specific promoter. , we also demonstrate that human hepatocytes induce post-translational modifications following α-syn fibrillar (PFF) treatment.

This study aims to determine the effect of chronic hyperglycemia, induced by a high-fat diet and STZ-induced diabetes, on the development of Parkinson's disease-like characteristics. Understanding this relationship is crucial in pharmacology, neurology, and diabetes, as it could potentially lead to developing new therapeutic strategies for Parkinson's disease. Our study employed a comprehensive approach to investigate the effect of hyperglycemia on Parkinson's disease-like characteristics.
