Calpain Proteases and the Evolving Signaling Network in Insect Embryonic Patterning

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
Insect embryonic Dorsal‐Ventral (DV) patterning relies on the BMP and Toll pathways to different extents. Calcium‐dependent cystein proteases of the Calpain family also exert an important function to pattern the DV axis. In Drosophila, Calpain A cleaves the Cactus/IkappaB inhibitor and modifies Toll signals in ventral regions of the embryo. In Rhodnius

Exploring the roles and impacts of pharmacists embedded in general practice: a scoping review

Journal of Pharmacy Practice and Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The role of the general practice pharmacist (GPP) in Australia is not yet clearly defined, and their clinical expertise remains underutilised in general practice settings. This may be attributed to a limited understanding of pharmacists' capabilities, which can hinder optimal GPP utilisation.
