Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity
Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve

Egyptian alfalfa weevil …biological control possibilities
Introduction of the larval parasite Bathyplectes curculionis (Thomson) into the Yuma Valley was one of the first counter measures taken against the Egyptian alfalfa weevil (Hypera brunneipennis (Boheman)) following its discovery in the U.S.A.

Quantification of the biological control of aphids by their natural enemies in sugar beet crops
Conservation biological control system involves a diverse community of natural enemies that significantly regulate pests in crops. However, the relative contribution of these different functional groups of natural enemies to aphid regulation is poorly ...

Single circulating tumor cells (sCTCs) from high‐grade serous ovarian cancer patients were enriched, imaged, and genomically profiled using WGA and NGS at different time points during treatment. sCTCs revealed enrichment of alterations in Chromosomes 2, 7, and 12 as well as persistent or emerging oncogenic CNAs, supporting sCTC identity.
