Transcriptional Targets of the REF-1 Family Proteins: HLH-25/ HLH-28/HLH-29
Notch signaling is important for development in Caenorhabditis elegans and the REF-1 family pro-teins, a set of the bHLH transcription factors, are the first targets of Notch signaling. Little is known about the molecular mechanisms employed by the REF-1 family to regulate development.

Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (HLH)
HLH is a reactive process resulting from prolonged and excessive antigen-presenting cell activation [1]. Hemophagocytosis is a hallmark of activated macrophages/histiocytes. The predominant clinical findings of HLH are fever (often hectic and persistent), cytopenia, hepatitis, and splenomegaly. A case of HLH in a 32-year-old female with no past medical
