Novel Postzygotic Variants Associated With Hypomelanosis of Ito Expand the ACTB‐Related Neurocutaneous Disease Spectrum

Clinical Genetics, EarlyView.
We describe a previously unreported phenotype related to postzygotic ACTB variants with hypomelanosis of Ito, characterized by hypopigmentation associated or not with neurodevelopmental features, distinct from Becker presentations, bridging constitutional neurodevelopmental and somatic cutaneous phenotypes.

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

Effect of blood meals and mating on biodemographic characteristics of Aedes albopictus

Physiological Entomology, EarlyView.
Lifespan did not differ between virgin and mated males and females. The number of blood meals (one and two) significantly reduced adult lifespan compared with those with no blood meal. The effect of the second blood meal doubled females' egg production and their reproductive output.

A multi‐omics investigation of sarcopenia and frailty: Integrating genomic, epigenomic and telomere length data

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sarcopenia and frailty are complex geriatric syndromes influenced by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Recent studies suggest that specific genetic variants, DNA methylation patterns and shortened telomeres are associated with age‐related diseases and might contribute to the development of both sarcopenia and frailty.
