EXOSC10, an essential nuclear RNA exosome‐associated 3′‐5′ exoribonuclease, is inhibited by the anticancer drug 5‐fluorouracil (5‐FU), and EXOSC10 depletion increases 5‐FU sensitivity. The colon‐cancer variant EXOSC10S402T, located in a proteolysis motif, is stable and nuclear but nonfunctional in vivo.

Unusual MRI features in a case of presumed canine tick‐borne meningoencephalomyelitis
Abstract A 7‐year‐old, standard, wire‐haired dachshund presented with quickly progressive multifocal central nervous system signs, which localised to the brainstem and cervical myelopathy, including reduced cervical and thoracic limb muscle tone and withdrawal reflexes. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed bilateral, approximately symmetric, T2‐weighted

Chemokines in Alzheimer's Disease: Early Defence, Late Damage and the Impact of Sex and Infection
ABSTRACT Chemokines constitute a versatile signalling network maintaining homeostasis and glia–neuron communication in the healthy brain but become progressively dysregulated during aging and Alzheimer's disease (AD). This review examines how chemokine systems transition from tightly regulated homeostatic signals to drivers of chronic neuroinflammation

ABSTRACT Toxoplasma gondii infection poses potential risks to stem cell‐based therapeutic applications; however, the effects of parasite‐derived soluble factors on mesenchymal stem cells remain unclear. Here, we investigated the impact of T. gondii‐derived soluble factors (Tg‐SFs) on human umbilical cord‐derived mesenchymal stem cells (hUC‐MSCs).

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

ABSTRACT Wildlife captive populations are important tools for threatened species conservation, and early identification of diseases must be prioritized. In this study, we test for the presence of anti‐Toxoplasma gondii antibodies in non‐human primates at a Zoo from Pernambuco State, Brazil.

ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by amyloid‐β (Aβ) peptide accumulation and tau protein‐mediated neurodegeneration, and neuroinflammation is increasingly recognized as a major process associated with tau pathology. Chronic Toxoplasma gondii infection reduces amyloid accumulation in AD models through immune modulation, but its stage ...
