Risk assessment scenarios to understand the persistence of Rift Valley fever in Comoros (Indian Ocean) [PDF]
, 2012 Rift Valley Fever (RVF) is an arbozoonosis identified for the first time in Kenya in the 1930s. In 2000, the first apparition of the virus out of Africa was described in the Arabian Peninsula with both animal and human cases.

Infection Models for Pine Wilt Disease on the Basis of Vector Behaviors
Population Ecology, EarlyView.Infection models for pine wilt disease without vector density were built to estimate the transmission coefficient of the pathogenic nematode. The models successfully simulated the annual change in the density of infected trees for four pine stands. ABSTRACT Pine wilt disease is caused by the pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus Steiner et ...

Animal Models for Human Disease
, 2014 This chapter introduces some types of animal models which are used for better understanding the disease mechanisms and its treatment. These experimental models fall into two categories: spontaneous models and induced models. Among the diseases, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) as an autoimmune disease was considered.

FoxO1 signaling in B cell malignancies and its therapeutic targeting
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.FoxO1 has context‐specific tumor suppressor or oncogenic character in myeloid and B cell malignancies. This includes tumor‐promoting properties such as stemness maintenance and DNA damage tolerance in acute leukemias, or regulation of cell proliferation and survival, or migration in mature B cell malignancies.

Functional genomics reveal gene regulatory mechanisms underlying schizophrenia risk
Nature Communications, 2019 We know a large number of risk SNPs for schizophrenia, but little about how these SNPs contribute to the disorder. Here, the authors use functional genomics to identify risk SNPs that disrupt transcription factor binding and validate the regulatory ...

Insights into PI3K/AKT signaling in B cell development and chronic lymphocytic leukemia
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This Review explores how the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase and protein kinase B pathway shapes B cell development and drives chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a common blood cancer. It examines how signaling levels affect disease progression, addresses treatment challenges, and introduces novel experimental strategies to improve therapies and patient outcomes.
