Microstructural Analysis of in vitro Nacre Formation on Shell Bead and Titanium by Cultured Mantle Tissue of Pearl Oyster, Pinctada fucata [PDF]

, 2019
Nacre, the inner iridescent layer of molluscan shells is an organic-inorganic composite material. The layered arrangement of platelet-shaped CaCO3 crystals and organic matrix in a brick-and-mortar structure makes it a strong, resilient, and iridescent ...

Transcriptome analysis of Catarina scallop (Argopecten ventricosus) juveniles treated with highly-diluted immunomodulatory compounds reveals activation of non-self-recognition system.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Marine bivalve hatchery productivity is continuously challenged by apparition and propagation of new diseases, mainly those related to vibriosis. Disinfectants and antibiotics are frequently overused to prevent pathogen presence, generating a potential ...

Optical genome mapping improves detection and characterisation of cytogenetic abnormalities in non‐Hodgkin lymphomas

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Optical genome mapping (OGM) is feasible on fresh and frozen tissue lymphoma samples and demonstrated its added value for accurate diagnostic classification. OGM surpasses karyotype and FISH in refining diagnoses of lymphoma, identifying class‐defining rearrangements along with prognostic markers.

Scaffold‐free three‐dimensional culture of chronic lymphocytic leukaemia preserves B–T‐cell cross‐talk and enables drug response profiling

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) presents a complex biological and clinical landscape, strongly influenced by the tumour microenvironment (TME). To better capture this heterogeneity, we have developed patient‐derived lymphoma spheroids from CLL samples (CLL‐PDLS), which recapitulate the cross‐talk between malignant cells and the autologous ...

Covalent drug discovery: Progress against key targets, emerging strategies and lessons learnt

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Covalent drug discovery is currently experiencing a boom in industrial and academic interest. To date, at least 75 covalent drugs have received regulatory approval, targeting both traditional target classes and more challenging proteins for which other approaches failed. In many cases, unique aspects of covalent targeting are essential for the

A Survey of Deepwater Horizon (DWH) Oil-Degrading Bacteria from the Eastern Oyster Biome and its Surrounding Environment

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014
The Deepwater Horizon (DWH) accident led to the release of an estimated 794,936,474 liters of crude oil into the northern Gulf of Mexico over an 85 day period in 2010, resulting in the contamination of the Gulf of Mexico waters, sediments, permeable ...

Effects of Body Size and Environmental Region on the Nutritional Value of Small Pelagic Species in the California Current

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We evaluated the effects of regional environment and body size on the nutritional traits of five small pelagic species differing in habitat use, feeding behavior, and importance as prey for top predators in the California Current Large Marine Ecosystem (CCLME).

A review of skin microbiome and new challenges to cosmetic microbiome‐friendly formulations

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Microbiome‐friendly concepts offer new perspectives for a healthy relationship between cosmetic use and the skin microbiome, especially the interaction of non‐biotic cosmetic ingredients with the skin, requiring further studies to clarify the dynamics between the skin microbiome and different classes of cosmetic ingredients.
