Abstract Background and Objectives The main use of plasma has evolved into market‐driven plasma‐derived medicinal products (PDMPs), but it still requires donors. Availability of PDMPs in access to care is often considered restrictively, in terms of volumes of plasma required for production and whether or not to remunerate donors.

Abstract Sarcopenia and frailty are complex geriatric syndromes influenced by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Recent studies suggest that specific genetic variants, DNA methylation patterns and shortened telomeres are associated with age‐related diseases and might contribute to the development of both sarcopenia and frailty. In this

The Dual Role of Autophagy in Cancer: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Strategies
Autophagy is a conserved cellular process degrading dysfunctional organelles and protein aggregates to maintain cell homeostasis, and it exhibits context‐dependent duality in cancer. Autophagy functions as a critical tumor‐suppressive mechanism by preventing DNA damage and mutation during tumor initiation.

Pharmacologic MRI Brain Imaging Studies of Serotonin 5‐HT1 Receptor Agonists in Awake Mice
ABSTRACT Serotonin (5‐hydroxytryptamine, 5‐HT) type‐1 G protein‐coupled receptors are expressed throughout the central nervous system. 5‐HT1AR activation is the putative mechanism of approved drugs for generalized anxiety disorder and major depressive disorder and is being studied in the treatment of autism and neurological disorders.

ABSTRACT This case highlights that acute motor axonal neuropathy can present with asymmetric, relapsing weakness in children. In malaria‐endemic and resource‐limited settings, clinicians should consider atypical Guillain–Barré variants early, as timely recognition and treatment can significantly improve outcomes despite diagnostic and systemic ...

Plasma deoxysphingolipids: a novel class of biomarkers for the metabolic syndrome? [PDF]
Aims/hypothesis: Sphingolipid synthesis is typically initiated by the conjugation of l-serine and palmitoyl-CoA, a reaction catalysed by serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT). SPT can also metabolise other acyl-CoAs (C12 to C18) and other amino acids such as
