Using oocytes and embryos in ex-situ conservation of animal genetic resources (a review) [PDF]
Agroznanje, 2012 In the last few decades, farm animal genetic diversity has been rapidly declining. Therefore, it is in the interest of the international community to conserve livestock genetics.

Organoids in pediatric cancer research
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

On the Genetic Manipulation of Animals
Between the Species: An Online Journal for the Study of Philosophy and Animals, 1985 While I agree with Pluhar's sentiment that genetically engineered animals may well be treated inhumanely, as are most animals in factory farms, I disagree with her belief that genetic engineering, specifically transgenic manipulation, "is not in itself cruel, nor need it lead to cruelty." If we accept by definition that animal cruelty is unnatural ...
