Resistance to Cry2Ab2 protein in Ostrinia nubilalis is autosomal, functionally recessive, controlled by a single gene, and remains stable over 17 generations in the absence of Cry2Ab2 selection pressure. Abstract BACKGROUND Transgenic corn expressing insecticidal proteins from the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt), including Cry1Ab, Cry1Fa and/or ...

This retrospective cohort compared umbilical‐portal‐systemic venous shunts in singleton and twin pregnancies. Type III was the most common subtype in singletons, whereas Type II was the most common in twins. Fetal growth restriction was more frequent in twins, but primary structural anomaly rates were similar.

Retinal dystrophies simulating geographic atrophy: A diagnostic challenge
Abstract Geographic atrophy (GA) is the chronic loss of retinal pigment epithelium, photoreceptors and choriocapillaris, marking the dry late stage of age‐related macular degeneration (AMD). GA prevalence is expected to rise in the upcoming decades. Advanced GA leads to central scotomas, reducing visual acuity and quality of life, potentially resulting

Gene therapy is revolutionizing treatment paradigms for haemoglobinopathies, establishing a translational framework for disorders that impact red blood cell development. In their paper, Joshi et al. describe the preclinical and early clinical landscape of gene therapies for non‐haemoglobinopathy erythroid disorders and highlight common thematic ...

Three‐generation familial risks in early‐onset prostate cancer with maternal and paternal relatives
Objectives To study familial prostate cancer (PCa) between first‐degree relatives (FDRs) and second‐degree relatives (SDRs), we accessed Swedish nationwide family and cancer data that extended through three generations and thus providing a unique chance for study of familial cancer in PCa between close and distant relatives (SDRs). The specific aim was

Pathogenic JAM2 mutations disrupt the JAM2–JAM3 heterodimer structure and tight junction integrity, leading to blood–brain barrier breakdown. Consequently, Jam2‐deficient mice develop prominent midbrain calcification and significant motor impairments, identifying the JAM2–JAM3 interaction as a vital target for primary brain calcification therapeutics ...
