Follicle Stimulating Hormone in Cattle Breeding: Fundamentals, Innovations, and Scope

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
FSH is crucial in cattle reproduction, with exogenous administration enhancing breeding and embryo production. Recombinant FSH offers advantages over pituitary‐extracted variants, including fewer injections, reduced stress, and safer production. These innovations improve breeding efficiency, optimize reproductive outcomes, and contribute to sustainable

Protein thermal stability in the undergraduate biochemistry laboratory: Exploring protein thermal stability with yeast alcohol dehydrogenase

Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, Volume 53, Issue 2, Page 209-217, March/April 2025.
Abstract We created a novel laboratory experience where undergraduate students explore the techniques used to study protein misfolding, unfolding, and aggregation. Despite the importance of protein misfolding and aggregation diseases, protein unfolding is not typically explored in undergraduate biochemistry laboratory classes.

Early Remission of Cerebrospinal Fluid Interleukin‐6 After Initial Immunotherapy Predicts a Good Prognosis in Autoimmune Encephalitis

Neurology and Clinical Neuroscience, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Autoimmune encephalitis therapy requires adjusting the regimen based on therapeutic response; however, clinical indicators of this response remain unknown. Aim To determine the predictive capability of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), electroencephalography (EEG), and brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in identifying responders to ...

Updated clinical diagnostic criteria for sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease [PDF]

, 2009
Several molecular subtypes of sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease have been identified and electroencephalogram and cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers have been reported to support clinical diagnosis but with variable utility according to subtype.

Applicability of long-term electroencephalography in pre-mortem diagnosis of Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease: A case report

SAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2017
Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease accounts for more than 90% of all sporadic prion disease cases. The molecular MM2 genotype has been divided into cortical and thalamic subtypes based on structures involved and is characterized clinically by progressive dementia

High diagnostic performance of plasma and cerebrospinal fluid beta‐synuclein for sporadic Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2023
Beta‐synuclein is a promising cerebrospinal fluid and blood biomarker of synaptic damage. Here we analysed its accuracy in the discrimination between sporadic Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease (n = 150) and non‐prion rapidly progressive dementias (n = 106).
