Impairment of hepato‐intestinal homeostasis triggered by ST2 deficiency during T. cruzi infection. Within the splenic compartment, immune dysregulation is marked by a robust pro‐inflammatory polarization of the T‐cell landscape. In the liver, ST2 deficiency is associated with hepatocellular injury, increased parasite burden, and hyperalbuminemia ...

Mesalazine‐Induced Myocarditis: A Challenging Diagnostic Journey
Cardiac MRI imaging showing patterns consistent with acute myocarditis. ABSTRACT Mesalazine‐induced myocarditis, though rare, should be suspected in patients presenting with acute chest pain and elevated cardiac biomarkers shortly after treatment initiation. Cardiac MRI plays a pivotal role in diagnosis. Prompt drug discontinuation often leads to rapid

ABSTRACT Although it had been reported that the translation product of the functional aquaporin gene, aqp1, is localized to the contractile vacuole complex of Paramecium multimicronucleatum, the molecules that pass through this channel protein had not been identified. In the present study, we introduced and expressed this protein in Xenopus oocytes and

Legionella pneumophila infection leads to the release of pathogen‐associated molecular patterns, which recruits the adaptor protein MYD88, initiating both activating (e.g., NF‐κB) and inhibitory (e.g., PI3K/AKT) signaling pathways that regulate IL‐12 gene expression.

This review surveys eukaryotic cilia as putative quantum‐enabled sensory and regulatory centers. It highlights their multifaceted roles in the cell, focuses on the nontrivial roles of quantum mechanics in their membrane and cytoskeletal proteins, and introduces the essential building blocks enabling quantum properties to survive in the warm, wet, and ...

Exploring Floristic Diversity and Medicinal Plant Uses in Venda, Limpopo, South Africa
ABSTRACT Plants have been an important source of medicine for thousands of years. To better understand the current diversity and usage of medicinal plants, floristic studies are essential. This report documents an expedition conducted in the Venda region of Limpopo, South Africa. The study was carried out in Shanzha and surrounding villages, as well as

Toward Efficient Cellulosic Biomass Breakdown: Enzymatic Innovation and Kinetic Insights
By combining a processive GH7, CBM2a, and GH3 into single enzyme, the GCG fusion protein effectively breaks down crystalline cellulose. This tri‐domain architecture reduces cellobiose inhibition at the cellulose surface allowing for the simultaneous targeting of the substrate, depolymerization, and removal of products.
