A semi-automated non-radiactive system for measuring recovery of RNA synthesis and unscheduled DNA synthesis using ethynyluracil derivatives [PDF]

, 2010
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) removes the major UV-photolesions from cellular DNA. In humans, compromised NER activity is the cause of several photosensitive diseases, one of which is the skin-cancer predisposition disorder, xeroderma pigmentosum (XP).

Calcitonin‐like diuretic hormone influences reproduction in adult female Rhodnius prolixus

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Highlights • CT/DH‐like immunoreactivity is present in female reproductive tissues • CT/DH receptor transcripts are expressed in the fat body and ovaries • RNAi knockdown of CT/DH receptors reduces egg number and hatching rate • Rhopr‐CT/DH increases RhoprVg1 and RhoprVgR expression in ovaries in vitro • Rhopr‐CT/DH stimulates oviduct contractions in a

Impact of routine cryptococcal antigen screening and targeted pre-emptive fluconazole therapy in antiretroviral naive HIV-infected adults with less than 100 CD4 cells/μL: a systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]

, 2018
Cryptococcal antigen (CrAg) screening and targeted pre-emptive fluconazole in antiretroviral naive HIV-infected adults with less than 100 CD4 cells/μL seems promising to reduce the burden of cryptococcal meningitis (CM).

Thaumatin‐Like Proteins in Molecular Allergy Diagnostics: Uncommon, Co‐Sensitized, and Clinically Inconspicuous? Insights From an Italian Cohort

Allergy, EarlyView.
This study assessed the prevalence, quantitative IgE levels, co‐sensitization patterns, and clinical significance of IgE reactivity to two TLPs—Act d 2 (kiwi) and Mal d 2 (apple)—in a large Italian allergic cohort. Thaumatin‐like protein (TLP) sensitization was uncommon (1.9%) and usually clinically silent when isolated.

Large‐scale reproductive loss in sheep due to Border disease virus infection, New South Wales, Australia

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Border disease viruses (BDV) and bovine viral diarrhoea viruses (BVDV) are members of the Pestivirus genus in the family Flaviviridae. While BVDV is one of the most significant endemic viral infections of cattle in Australia, BDV infection is generally considered to be uncommon in Australian sheep.

Common milkweed gardens increase occupancy by monarch butterflies and other specialist herbivores towards an urban centre

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
We surveyed 119 stands of common milkweed (Asclepias syriaca) across an urbanisation gradient to investigate how restored garden habitat might ameliorate the negative effects of urbanisation on specialist herbivores. Surprisingly, we found most herbivores (including the monarch butterfly) had greater occupancy on common milkweed towards an urban centre.

Out With the Old, in With the New: Age‐Related D‐Dimer Thresholds

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background A fixed D‐dimer cut‐off threshold of 0.500 μg/mL is used in Blackrock Health Hermitage Clinic (BHHC) and most Haematology laboratories across Ireland, however, international guidelines have evolved over the past decade, and a growing body of evidence supports the use of age‐adjusted D‐dimer thresholds.
