Organoids in pediatric cancer research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Whole-genome DNA methylomes of tree shrew brains reveal conserved and divergent roles of DNA methylation on sex chromosome regulation

open access: yesBMC Biology
Background The tree shrew (Tupaia belangeri) is a promising emerging model organism in biomedical studies, notably due to their evolutionary proximity to primates.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Genetic Programming with Guaranteed Constraints [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Genetic programming is a powerful technique for automatically generating program code from a description of the desired functionality. However it is frequently distrusted by users because the programs are generated with reference to a training set, and ...

Behavioral Convergence with Physiological Divergence: Sex Differences in Hormones but Not Social Behavior in Beagle Dogs

open access: yesAnimals
The “experimenter gender effect” is a pervasive confound in rodent behavioral neuroscience: the sex of the human handler alters stress, social, and pharmacological responses via olfactory cues and conserved neural circuits. Whether this effect extends to

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Whole genome resequencing reveals an association of ABCC4 variants with preaxial polydactyly in pigs

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2020
Background Polydactyly is one of the most common congenital limb dysplasia in many animal species. Although preaxial polydactyly (PPD) has been comprehensively studied in humans as a common abnormality, the genetic variations in other animal species have

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Transferring Face Recognition Techniques to Entomology: An ArcFace and ResNet Approach for Improving Dragonfly Classification

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Dragonfly classification is crucial for biodiversity conservation. Traditional taxonomic approaches require extensive training and experience, limiting their efficiency. Computer vision offers promising solutions for dragonfly taxonomy. In this study, we
