Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

The dose rate debate: does the risk of fungicide resistance increase or decrease with dose? [PDF]
This paper reviews the evidence relating to the question: does the risk of fungicide resistance increase or decrease with dose? The development of fungicide resistance progresses through three key phases.

The role of miR‐335‐5p in the redifferentiation of BRAF p.V600E thyroid cancers
The BRAF p.V600E mutation promotes thyroid cancer dedifferentiation and radioiodine resistance. Using a network approach, we identified miR‐335‐5p as a key regulator of BRAF‐mutated thyroid tumors. Restoring miR‐335‐5p increased thyroid‐specific gene expression and iodine uptake in cells and organoids.

Combining osimertinib with the STING agonist ADU‐S100 activates innate and adaptive immunity to overcome the non‐inflamed microenvironment of Egfr‐mutant lung cancer. This combination increases NK and CD8+ T‐cell infiltration, associated with activation of the STING‐IRF3 pathway and local immunogenic cell death.

Experimental control strategies reducing the fungicide input at a practical scale [PDF]
Phytophthora infestans is the most devastating disease in potato cultivation. Chemical control is necessary to ensure a healthy crop. At the same time Dutch governmental policy asks for a reduction of the environmental impact of potato late blight ...

Evolution‐guided yeast complementation reveals functional differences in human PSPH variants
Ancient genomes can help guide which human genetic variants are tested experimentally. This study applies that idea to PSPH, a gene involved in serine biosynthesis, and uses high‐throughput yeast complementation to compare variant function. The findings reveal measurable differences among selected alleles and illustrate the value of evolution‐guided ...

Mechanisms of action of the organophosphorus fungicide pyrazophos [PDF]
In plant protection organophosphorus compounds are well-known for their insecticidal and acaricidal action. Since 1960, a number of organophosphorus fungicides have also been introduced.

Molecular characterization of cellulose synthase (CesA) genes and impact of mutations on fungicide resistance in oomycetes [PDF]
Many oomycetes are important pathogens of plants (e.g. arable crops, fruit and forest trees), animals or microbes and, upon attacking their hosts, cause considerable economic damage mainly in agriculture and aquaculture.

Environmental behavior assessment Thiophanate methyl in the soil using different mathematical models
One of the most common fungicides, Thiophanate-methyl (TM), has been extensively used to prevent fusarium wilt disease. Understanding the kinetic behavior of the TM-fungicide in the greenhouse soil was aimed at the current research.
