The Brown Bear and Hibernating Mammals as a Translational Model for Human Resilience: Insights for Space Medicine, Critical Care, and Austere Environments
2025
Long-term spaceflight induces multisystem stress, including cardiovascular deconditioning, skeletal muscle atrophy, immune suppression, and neuro-ocular syndromes. Current countermeasures reduce symptoms but cannot replicate the synergistic resilience needed for extended missions or critical illness. Hibernating animals, specifically brown bears (Ursus arctos), survive prolonged immobility, starvation, and bradycardia without resultant pathology. This review incorporates adaptations observed in bears and certain torpid species, including reversible insulin resistance, suppression of muscle atrophy genes MuRF1 and Atrogin-1, and maintenance of the heart despite seasonal production decline. The thirteen-lined ground squirrels (Ictidomys tridecemlineatus) maintain retinal structure and synaptic stability throughout torpor, avoiding neuro-ocular complications despite prolonged inactivity. Mechanisms span from RBM3-dependent synaptic maintenance, titin isoform remodeling under the control of RBM20, mTOR and FOXO pathway regulation, remodeled hydrogen sulfide metabolism, and microbiome-mediated nitrogen salvage. These adaptations are different from human adaptation to microgravity and disuse and offer translational candidates for synthetic torpor, probiotic engineering, neuroprotection, and protein-sparing therapy. Hibernators are not passive stress subjects; they perform coordinated anticipatory responses in multiple organs. Comparing these systems in large and small hibernators, we aim to uncover a biologically realistic path to human resilience. These findings guide a shift from reactive, pharmacological measures for preserving human health during space flight, intensive care, and extreme environments towards proactive, biologically initiated measures.

OverPolicing Black Males via Targeting and Searches: Navigating Supposed Freedom(s) and (Social) Death at the Hands of Police Through Counterstorytelling
2024
Beyond killing Black males, US law enforcement continues to treat Black boys/men as threats to be neutralized even when not armed or resisting. In this study I investigate 15 Black men’s narratives to provide a deeper understanding of Black male vilification and vulnerabilities in police encounters insofar as being targeted and searched. Using Afropessimism’s tenet of social death and Critical Race Methodology: Counterstorytelling this study answers, (a) how do Black men describe being targeted by US police officers, and (b) what experiences do Black males encounter with police officers’ searches? Findings elucidate how Black males face a dual death even when no threats exist, therefore having their freedom(s) infringed. Conclusions inform psychological reforms and discretionary search policies.

ISSUE HIGHLIGHTS

GENETICS, Vol. 211, March 2019, Copyright © 2019 Cell cycle-regulated transcription of CENP-A by the MBF complex ensures optimal level of CENP-A for centromere formation, pp. 861-875 David Aristizabal-Corrales, Jinpu Yang, and Fei Li In most eukaryotes, the histone H3 variant CENP-A serves as the epigenetic mark for centromeres. Through a genetic screen, Aristizabal-Corrales, Yang, and Li identify the MBF complex as a key regulator of temporal control of CENP-A transcription in fission yeast, providing insight into the mechanism for regulating cell cycle-dependent CENP-A transcription. Establishment and maintenance of chromatin architecture are promoted independently of transcription by the histone chaperone FACT and H3-K56 acetylation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, pp. 877-892 Laura L. McCullough, Trang H. Pham, Timothy J. Parnell, Zaily Connell, Mahesh B. Chandrasekharan, David J. Stillman, and Tim Formosa Using a combination of in vitro biochemistry, genetics, and genomics, McCullough and Pham et al. explore how the histone:DNA contact at the entry/exit site of nucleosomes affects the functions of the histone chaperone FACT in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
