PLoS ONE, 2014 Evolved resistance to xenobiotics and parasites is often associated with fitness costs when the selection pressure is absent. Resistance to the widely used microbial insecticide Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) has evolved in several insect species through ...

A Very-High Frequency Solution-Processed Organic Field-Effect Transistor With Improved Voltage-Normalized Frequency of Transition. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)Increasing the frequency at which organic electronics operate while limiting the operation voltage is key to enabling future sustainable wireless applications. This work shows p‐type organic field‐effect transistors based on a molecularly doped, small molecule/polymer blend (C8‐BTBT:C16IDT‐BT), fabricated via direct‐writing and solution‐processing ...

PLoS ONEIn Nebraska USA, many populations of western corn rootworm (WCR), Diabrotica virgifera virgifera LeConte, now exhibit some level of resistance to all corn rootworm-active Bacillus thuringiensis Berliner (Bt) proteins expressed in commercial hybrids ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This study identifies ARHGAP5, in addition to the frequently mutated ARHGAP35, as significantly mutated in endometrial cancer. Mutations in both genes co‐occur and are associated with their correlated downregulation. Functional CRISPR studies show that both paralogs regulate similar pathways, including actin cytoskeleton organization.

Increased frequency of pink bollworm resistance to Bt toxin Cry1Ac in China. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Transgenic crops producing insecticidal proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) kill some key insect pests, but evolution of resistance by pests can reduce their efficacy.

Engineering IL‐4 resistant proinflammatory human myeloid cells for cancer immunotherapy
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.We developed a scalable workflow to generate proinflammatory human myeloid cells. CRISPR/Cas9‐edited CD34+ hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells were expanded and differentiated with M‐CSF. Deletion of STAT6 or STAT6/NFKB1 enhanced macrophage proinflammatory gene expression and cytokine secretion in the presence of IL‐4 while maintaining antibody ...

ToxinsBacillus thuringiensis (Bt) toxins are potential alternatives to synthetic insecticides for the control of lepidopteran pests. However, the evolution of resistance in some insect pest populations is a threat and can reduce the effectiveness of Bt toxins.

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Our objective was to describe the social networks of Black individuals with rheumatic and musculoskeletal conditions and understand the clustering of health‐related behaviors to inform future community‐based, peer‐led interventions. Methods We used an adapted Personal Network Survey for Clinical Research (PERSNET) to map the personal social ...
