CCL26‐Mediated Modulation of Endothelial Secretome by Hypoxia‐Induced Tumor‐Derived Exosomes Enhances Metastatic Progression in Head and Neck Cancer

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Tumor cells adapt to hypoxia by releasing hiTDExs enriched with bioactive molecules that modulate endothelial behavior and promote tumor progression. This study aimed to characterize how hypoxia‐induced HNSCC exosomes reshape the endothelial secretome and contribute to metastatic potential.

Bt agave: why it is time to explore a new biotechnological frontier

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Drylands cover 41% of Earth, requiring sustainable crops. Agave, drought‐ and heat‐adapted, offers high‐value products with low water needs. Pests limit yield, yet Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) Cry proteins, successful in other plants, remain unexploited in Agave.

Soybean induced resistance to Spodoptera eridania herbivory

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
SOD, CAT, APX, PPO, KTI, and MDA levels were higher in the resistant soybean. S. eridania herbivory increased H2O2 and MDA, but decreased SOD and PPO levels. S. eridania herbivory increased KTI activity only in the resistant variety. Isoquercitrin and daidzin were exclusive to resistant and susceptible soybeans.

Effects of temperature on the feeding behavior of Alabama argillacea (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) on Bt and non-Bt cotton plants

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2017
The host acceptance behavior and environmental factors as temperature affect the feeding behavior of Lepidoptera pests. Thus, they must be considered in studies about the risk potential of resistance evolution.

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.
