Oxidative costs of migration: infections as an added burden
There is increasing evidence that over‐production of reactive species (RS) constitutes a significant physiological cost for migrating birds. The current view entails that RS during migration originate primarily from increased metabolic activity associated with prolonged flights and refueling.

Analysis by RNA-seq of transcriptomic changes elicited by heat shock in Leishmania major [PDF]
Besides their medical relevance, Leishmania is an adequate model for studying post-transcriptional mechanisms of gene expression. In this microorganism, mRNA degradation/stabilization mechanisms together with translational control and post-translational ...

Abstract Kinase inhibitors are essential in targeted cancer therapy, yet resistance often emerges through secondary mutations, activation of compensatory signaling pathways, or drug‐efflux mechanisms. Artificial intelligence (AI) provides a workflow‐based strategy rather than a list of unrelated tools for predicting and addressing kinase‐inhibitor ...

Evaluation of antigens for the serodiagnosis of kala-azar and oriental sores by means of the indirect immunofluorescence antibody test (IFAT) [PDF]
Antigens and corresponding sera were collected from travellers with leishmaniasis returning to Germany from different endemic areas of the old world. The antigenicity of these Leishmania strains, which were maintained in Syrian hamsters, was compared by ...
