Primate-Specific lncRNA LINC01021 Regulates Aging Through DAZAP1-RBMX-P53 Axis
In a study published in Aging Cell on June 26, 2026, a team led by Prof. He Yonghan from the Kunming Institute of Zoology (KIZ) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, along with collaborators, revealed that the primate-specific long non-coding RNA LINC01021 plays a key role in regulating cellular and organismal aging.Aging research has long focused on protein-coding genes and canonical pathways su... more
New Murina Species and First National Record from China Discovered in Yunnan
In a study published in the Journal of Mammalogy on July 2, 2026, a team led by Prof. Li Song from the Kunming Institute of Zoology (KIZ) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences described a new bat species and reported the first national record of another Murina species in China.The researchers found that five Murina specimens collected from southern Yunnan (Honghe Prefecture and Xishuangbanna) were... more
Brains Before Jaws: A “Living Fossil” Maps 500 Million Years of Brain Evolution:A whole-brain 3D cell atlas of the lamprey reveals the ancient blueprint of the vertebrate brain — and hints at the origins of our own
What did the very first complex vertebrate brain look like? To find out, scientists turned to an unlikely time traveler: the lamprey, a jawless, eel-like fish whose body plan has barely changed in roughly 360 million years.In a cover study published in Science, researchers led by Bing Su at the Kunming Institute of Zoology (Chinese Academy of Sciences), together with colleagues at BGI-Research ... more
Fragile by Birth: First High-Resolution ERFS Map Reveals Why Human Stem Cells Break at Specific Spots
A team led by Prof. Ping Zheng at the Kunming Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Prof. Songmin Ying at Zhejiang University School of Medicine has constructed the first high-resolution map of early replication fragile sites (ERFSs) in human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). Published in Stem Cell Reportson June 18, 2026, the study addresses why copy number variations (CNVs) and s... more
A New Species of Mustura Discovered from the Chindwin–Irrawaddy River Basin, Myanmar
The genus Mustura (Cypriniformes: Nemacheilidae) is distributed from the Yarlung Tsangpo River to the Mekong River basin, occurring mainly in northeastern India, Myanmar, northern Thailand, and Laos. During ichthyological surveys conducted in the Chindwin–Irrawaddy River basin, the research team collected a series of nemacheilid loach specimens. Detailed morphological comparisons combined with... more
