Tackling Allergic Airway Inflammation with Organic Sheet‐Like Nanoplatforms by Targeted Elimination of Epithelial Small Extracellular Vesicles

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this work, “inorganic‐free” nanosheets, named PNSE are developed using template‐based synthesis technology. The functionalized organic nanosheets exhibit low cytotoxicity, mild protein adsorption, and potent binding efficacy to epithelial sEVs.

TREM2‐Mediated Cholesterol Efflux in Macrophages Inhibits Anti‐Tumor Immunity via Limitation of CD4+ T and NK Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Impaired anti‐tumor immunity is mediated by TREM2 + macrophages in non‐small cell lung cancer. TREM2 + macrophages prevent anti‐tumor immunity depending on the limitation of CD4 + T and NK cells. TREM2 promotes cholesterol efflux via ABCA1 to limit the production of CX3CL1 in macrophages.

Occurrence of the mite Acanthonyssus proechimys (Mesostigmata: Macronyssidae) on a spiny rat in Brazil

Acta Amazonica, 2022
Macronyssid mites are ectoparasites of terrestrial vertebrates. We slide-mounted and re-examined mite material collected in a 1987-1989 expedition to Maracá Ecological Station, Roraima State, Brazil.

Highly Efficient Air Sterilization via Low‐Temperature Interfacial Evaporation in Inductively Heated Superhydrophilic Ferromagnetic Filters

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The first low‐temperature interfacial evaporation air sterilization technology is presented. It is based on a superhydrophilic ferromagnetic micro/nano‐structured stainless‐steel filter, showing ultra‐efficient inductive heating. This technology has demonstrated over 99.6% of SARS‐CoV‐2 and RSV elimination at temperatures in the 60–80 °C range.

Utility and challenges of using whole‐genome resequencing to detect emerging insect and mite resistance in agroecosystems

Evolutionary Applications, 2022
Arthropods that invade agricultural ecosystems systematically evolve resistance to the control measures used against them, and this remains a significant and ongoing challenge for sustainable food production systems.

Scabies Mites Alter the Skin Microbiome and Promote Growth of Opportunistic Pathogens in a Porcine Model

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2014
Background The resident skin microbiota plays an important role in restricting pathogenic bacteria, thereby protecting the host. Scabies mites (Sarcoptes scabiei) are thought to promote bacterial infections by breaching the skin barrier and excreting ...

Allelic Variation in Maize Malate Dehydrogenase 7 Shapes Promoter Methylation and Banded Leaf and Sheath Blight Resistance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study maize chloroplastic malate dehydrogenase7 (ZmMDH7), is identified as a Rhizoctonia solani resistance gene in maize. ZmMDH7 is regulated by transcription factor ZmWRKY44 via pathogens challenge to elevate mitochondrial ROS and SA signaling pathway.

Utility of 28S Ribosomal RNA Gene Domains for Molecular Classification and Phylogeny of Rhinonyssid Mites

Pathogens
The family Rhinonyssidae includes endoparasitic, blood-feeding mites that are parasitic on birds and that remain largely unstudied despite their potential role as vectors or reservoirs for various pathogens, like other Dermanyssoidea.

Ubiquity and Diversity of Human-Associated Demodex Mites

PLoS ONE, 2014
Demodex mites are a group of hair follicle and sebaceous gland-dwelling species. The species of these mites found on humans are arguably the animals with which we have the most intimate interactions.
