Tityus serrulatus Scorpion Venom Induces Apoptosis in Cervical Cancer Cell Lines
Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019 Cervical cancer (CC) is classified as the fourth most common type of cancer in women worldwide and remains a serious public health problem in many underdeveloped countries. Human papillomavirus (HPV), mainly types 16 and 18, has been established as a precursory etiologic agent for this type of cancer.

Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 20, October 2025.ABSTRACT The molecular basis of sex determination (SD), while being extensively studied in model organisms, remains poorly understood in many animal groups. Bivalves, a diverse class of molluscs with a variety of reproductive modes, represent an ideal yet challenging clade for investigating SD and the evolution of sexual systems.

Invertebrate Bile Acid‐Sensitive Ion Channels and Their Emergence in Bilateria
The FASEB Journal, Volume 39, Issue 8, 30 April 2025.This graphical abstract presents the evolutionary distribution and functional characteristics of bile acid‐sensing ion channels (BASICs) across bilaterians. A phylogenetic tree illustrates the presence of BASICs in diverse groups, extending beyond previously established mammalian findings.
