Transcolonic Endoscopic Appendectomy: A Single‐Step “Two‐In‐One” Approach for Recurrent Appendicitis With Appendiceal Orifice Lesions

Journal of Digestive Diseases, EarlyView.
Transcolonic endoscopic appendectomy (TEA) is a minimally invasive, single‐step “two‐in‐one” procedure for recurrent appendicitis with appendiceal orifice lesions. It enables precise resection of both appendix and associated lesions, with a novel closure method reducing operative time and improving safety.

Emergence of Ophidiomyces ophidiicola, Nannizziopsis barbatae and Paranannizziopsis in free‐ranging Australian reptiles

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Emerging fungal diseases pose a threat to reptiles globally. Increasing detections of onygenalean fungi, particularly Ophidiomyces ophidiicola, Nannizziopsis spp. and Paranannizziopsis spp. in clinically diseased free‐ranging reptiles, indicate likely ongoing spread within wild reptile populations.

Targeting hexokinase 2 to induce breast cancer cell senescence

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Hexokinase 2 (HK2) is a key enzyme linked to high tumour cell proliferation. Its inhibitors such as 3‐bromopyruvic acid (3‐BP) induce cancer cell death, highlighting HK2 modulation as potential anti‐cancer treatment. However, standard chemotherapies often cause the emergence of senescent cancer cells, which goes along with cell ...
