Plasmodium falciparum gametogenesis essential protein 1 (GEP1) is a transmission‐blocking target

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study shows Plasmodium falciparum GEP1 is vital for activating sexual stages of malarial parasites even independently of a mosquito factor. Knockout parasites completely fail gamete formation even when a phosphodiesterase inhibitor is added. Two single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (V241L and S263P) are found in 12%–20% of field samples.

4‐nitrobenzoate inhibits 4‐hydroxybenzoate polyprenyltransferase in malaria parasites and enhances atovaquone efficacy

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Atovaquone is an antimalarial requiring potentiation for sufficient efficacy. We pursued strategies to enhance its activity, showing that 4‐nitrobenzoate inhibits 4‐hydroxybenzoate polyprenyltransferase, decreasing ubiquinone biosynthesis. Since atovaquone competes with ubiquinol in mitochondria, 4‐nitrobenzoate facilitates its action, potentiating ...

Successful Treatment of Obstructive Oligospermia/Azoospermia Due to Mullerian Duct Cyst by Transurethral Resection: A Case Report [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Fertility and Sterility, 2007
Cystic lesions in midline of prostate are uncommon and considered as congenital disorders. Here we report a 33- year- old male who presented with either azoospermia or decreased ejaculate volume leading to infertility and for whom performing Transrectal ...

Female philomaths

open access: yesHistoria Mathematica, 1980
AbstractWhat was the extent of women's interest in and practice of mathematics in Britain in the 18th century? The evidence from the Ladies' Diary, recently given by T. Perl (Historia Mathematica 6 (1979), 36–53), is extended, and other sources of information, particularly subscription lists, are discussed.

Multi‐omic characterization of consensus molecular subtype 1 (CMS1) colorectal cancer with dampened immune response improves precision medicine

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study highlights the importance of multi‐omic analyses in characterizing colorectal cancers. Indeed, our analysis revealed a rare CMS1 exhibiting dampened immune activation, including reduced PD‐1 expression, moderate CD8+ T‐cell infiltration, and suppressed JAK/STAT pathway.

Cardiovascular Disease and the Female Disadvantage

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2019
Age-standardised rates of cardiovascular disease (CVD) are substantially higher in men than women. This explains why CVD has traditionally been seen as a “man’s problem”.

Exposure to high dose of polystyrene nanoplastics causes trophoblast cell apoptosis and induces miscarriage

open access: yesParticle and Fibre Toxicology
Background With rapid increase in the global use of various plastics, microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) pollution and their adverse health effects have attracted global attention.

Reading Female Readers: The Female Quixote And Female Quixotism

open access: yes, 2011
These two novels offer clues to the idea of the reader and to the understanding of the nature of the reading act in the eighteenth-century context. Because they take the fiction they read as models of the world, both protagonists violate emerging rules for reading fiction.

Chemoresistome mapping in individual breast cancer patients unravels diversity in dynamic transcriptional adaptation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study used longitudinal transcriptomics and gene‐pattern classification to uncover patient‐specific mechanisms of chemotherapy resistance in breast cancer. Findings reveal preexisting drug‐tolerant states in primary tumors and diverse gene rewiring patterns across patients, converging on a few dysregulated functional modules. Despite receiving the
