Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Enable Disease Modeling and Drug Screening in Calreticulin del52 and ins5 Myeloproliferative Neoplasms. [PDF]
Mutations in the calreticulin (CALR) gene are seen in about 30% of essential thrombocythemia and primary myelofibrosis patients. To address the contribution of the human CALR mutants to the pathogenesis of myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) in an endogenous context, we modeled the CALRdel52 and CALRins5 mutants by induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC ...

HLA-B Serine 116 Confers Protection Against Severe COVID-19 in a Cohort From Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. [PDF]
ABSTRACT COVID‐19 is a respiratory disease caused by SARS‐CoV‐2, in which severe outcomes are primarily driven by an exacerbated immune response. The HLA region has been extensively investigated in COVID‐19 due to its central role in the immune response, although genetic associations vary across populations.

The Prominent Role of HMGA Proteins in the Early Management of Gastrointestinal Cancers. [PDF]
GI tumors represent a heterogeneous group of neoplasms concerning their natural history and molecular alterations harbored. Nevertheless, these tumors share very high incidence and mortality rates worldwide and patients’ poor prognosis. Therefore, the identification of specific biomarkers could increase the development of personalized medicine, in ...

Potential Therapeutic Effects of Underground Parts of Kalanchoe gastonis-bonnieri on Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia. [PDF]
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) affects mainly older men. It is estimated to affect 50% of 51‐60‐year‐old men and 70% of 61‐70‐year‐old men. BPH is a nonmalignant proliferation of epithelial and stromal cells of the prostate gland regions. Despite the use of conventional pharmacological therapy, herbal medicines are used in BPH therapy, and several ...
