Epstein–Barr Virus Infection Related to Low White Blood Cell Count in Cancer Patients Receiving Chemotherapy in Al-Najaf Governorate/Iraq

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2020
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) plays the most important role in various types of human cancers. Patients receiving chemotherapy have low white blood cell (WBC) counts that elevate the risk of infection and is the first public health priority in Iraq.

Development and Investigation of Diagnostic Efficiency of a Test Kit for the Detection of IgM-antibodies to Individual Antigens of Rubella Virus by Immunoblotting (Western Blot)

Эпидемиология и вакцинопрофилактика, 2020
Relevance. During serological diagnosis of rubella by enzyme immunoassay (detecting IgM), it is possible to obtain an indefinite or false-positive result. In this case, is needed an additional confirmatory test.

Partial depletion of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 decreases subcutaneous fat cell hypertrophy and liver cholesterol in high‐fat‐fed female mice

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

Translophagy—A potential link between autophagy impairment and translational errors

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neurodegenerative diseases are characterised by the accumulation of abnormal proteins and protein aggregates, but their origin often remains unknown. We propose that selective autophagy removes damaged protein‐making machinery, preventing errors during protein synthesis.

A context‐dependent modulatory role for eIF6 in acquired resistance to vemurafenib in melanoma

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Acquired resistance to vemurafenib upregulates the translation factor eIF6 in melanoma cells. Silencing eIF6 in resistant cells reduces proliferation and partially restores drug sensitivity, whereas its overexpression increases sensitivity across melanoma lines regardless of BRAF status, via modulation of mTOR, S6K, and MAPK signaling.
