Host Transcriptomics and Culture‐Independent Testing for the Management of Febrile Neutropenia: Data From an Observational Study Conducted in a Bone Marrow Transplant Unit

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Managing febrile neutropenia is challenging due to the limited sensitivity of blood culture (BC) and the lack of tools differentiating infectious from non‐infectious fever. T2 magnetic resonance (T2MR) is a culture‐independent system detecting bacteria (T2Bacteria) and yeasts (T2Candida); SeptiCyte RAPID is a host response assay ...

Targeting the microbiota‐miRNA‐protease axis: A new therapeutic avenue in melanoma

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Modulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) turnover is central to melanoma progression and metastasis, driven largely by ECM proteases. This review highlights the epigenetic regulation of ECM proteases by microRNAs and their roles in melanoma growth, invasion, and immune modulation.
