POST-EMBRYONIC DEVELOPMENT OF INTRAMANDIBULAR GLANDS OF FRIESELLA SCHROTTKYI (FRIESE, 1900) (HYMENOPTERA: APIDAE) WORKERS

Papéis Avulsos de Zoologia
Exocrine glands play important role in social organization of insects, such as caste and inter-caste differentiation. Due their functional and structural plasticity, morphological studies on such glands contribute to better understanding the biology of ...

Morphology and Chemical Characterization of the Metathoracic Scent Gland in Halyomorpha halys (Stål, 1855) (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Pentatomidae)

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Halyomorpha halys (Stål, 1855) is an invasive pentatomid species causing considerable economic losses in agricultural systems. Despite the ecological importance of the metathoracic scent gland (MTG) in chemical defence and communication, detailed information on its morphology and secretion composition remains limited. In the present study, the

Liquid Biopsy and Multi‐Cancer Early Detection Tests for Cancer Screening: A Scoping Review

Clinical Genetics, EarlyView.
There is a large body of evidence on liquid biopsy and multi‐cancer detection tests for cancer screening. Most studies addressed test performance outcomes, while fewer addressed clinical outcomes, implementation, and cost‐effectiveness. No studies evaluated cancer mortality.

Human Embryonic Stem Cell‐Derived Immunity‐And‐Matrix‐Regulatory Cells Attenuate Pulmonary Fibrosis via MMP1‐Mediated Collagen Degradation

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Human embryonic stem cell‐derived Immunity‐and‐Matrix‐Regulatory Cells (IMRCs) effectively attenuate pulmonary fibrosis by secreting Matrix Metalloproteinase‐1 (MMP1), which directly degrades excess collagen I in the extracellular matrix. By directly degrading collagen I, IMRCs reverse ECM stiffness, suppress myofibroblast activation, and promote a ...

Cystic Fibrosis and Colorectal Cancer Risk: Reprogramming of the Intestinal Epithelial Niche and Cell‐State Plasticity in the CFTR Modulator Era

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
In cystic fibrosis disorder, CFTR dysfunction drives multilayered intestinal niche disruption, including dysbiosis, inflammation, hypoxia, metabolic stress and genotoxic injury, promoting cell‐state plasticity and a pre‐neoplastic ecosystem. CFTR modulators and environmental factors may partially reshape these processes, highlighting opportunities for ...

Associations between prior wasting malnutrition and indices of insulin secretion and sensitivity among six cohorts from Asia and Africa: The SAMPA study

Diabetic Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims The role of prior wasting malnutrition (PM) in determining insulin sensitivity and secretion in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs) remains unclear. We investigated associations of insulin indices with PM and whether these were modified by current body mass index (BMI).

Sternal Exocrine Glands in Neotropical Social Wasps

, 2020
A great diversity of exocrine glands is found in social insects. The main social function of exocrine glands is the production of pheromones, which are related to the maintenance of social organization of the colony, as interactions of dominance, maintenance of queen status, recruitment for food, search for nesting sites, defense, and reproductive ...

A DPP6‐Targeted PET Tracer for Non‐Invasive Imaging of Transplanted Human Islets

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Dipeptidyl peptidase‐like protein 6 (DPP6) is a potential molecular imaging biomarker for pancreatic and transplanted islets of Langerhans. 4hD29 is a single‐domain antibody with nanomolar affinity for DPP6. Here, we demonstrate the generation and validation of [68Ga]Ga‐NOTA‐4hD29 for Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging of ...

Charting the course of Sjögren's disease: A historical analysis of scientific progress

European Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Sjögren's disease (SjD) bears the name of the Swedish ophthalmologist Henrik Sjögren. His 1933 doctoral thesis on keratoconjunctivitis sicca ignited interest, yet much remains under debate. SjD is an autoimmune disorder that primarily affects the exocrine glands, particularly the salivary and lacrimal glands, leading to a dryness of the eyes ...
