Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Adolescent siblings of children with cancer are at elevated risk for psychosocial problems. Unfortunately, various barriers such as limited family time and resources, conflicting schedules, and psychosocial staffing constraints at cancer centers hinder sibling access to support.

Low-cost anti-mycobacterial drug discovery using engineered E. coli
Nature Communications, 2022 Whole-cell screening for Mycobacterium tuberculosis inhibitors is complicated by the pathogen’s slow growth and biocontainment requirements. Here the authors develop engineered E.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

Evolutionary genomics of socially polymorphic populations of Pogonomyrmex californicus
BMC BiologyBackground Social insects vary considerably in their social organization both between and within species. In the California harvester ant, Pogonomyrmex californicus (Buckley 1867), colonies are commonly founded and headed by a single queen (haplometrosis,

Sex-biased gene expression is repeatedly masculinized in asexual females
Nature Communications, 2019 Evolution of optimal gene expression in females is expected to be constrained by sexually-antagonistic selection on males. Here, Parker and colleagues show that gene expression has in fact become masculinized in female stick insects across five ...

Disentangling star formation and merger growth in the evolution of luminous red galaxies [PDF]
, 2011 We introduce a novel technique for empirically understanding galaxy evolution. We use empirically determined stellar evolution models to predict the past evolution of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-II) Luminous Red Galaxy (LRG) sample without any a ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Purpose Chemoimmunotherapy with irinotecan, temozolomide, and dinutuximab (I/T/DIN) has emerged as first‐line therapy for relapsed/refractory (r/r) high‐risk neuroblastoma (HRNB) in North America. Topotecan and cyclophosphamide (T/C) are often used in combination with dinutuximab in the setting of lack of response, progression, or incomplete ...

PMEL is involved in snake colour pattern transition from blotches to stripes
Nature CommunicationsCorn snakes are emerging models for animal colouration studies. Here, we focus on the Terrazzo morph, whose skin pattern is characterized by stripes rather than blotches. Using genome mapping, we discover a disruptive mutation in the coding region of the

Spontaneous assembly of redox-active iron-sulfur clusters at low concentrations of cysteine
Nature Communications, 2021 Iron-sulfur (FeS) proteins are involved in electron transfer and CO2 fixation. Here, the authors show that FeS clusters can form spontaneously in the presence of the amino acid cysteine, in conditions similar those expected in Hadean alkaline ...
