Abstract Quantitative risk assessments of chemicals are routinely performed using in vivo data from rodents; however, there is growing recognition that non‐animal approaches can be human‐relevant alternatives. There is an urgent need to build confidence in non‐animal alternatives given the international support to reduce the use of animals in toxicity ...

Comparative Biochemical View of N-Glycans
N-結合型糖鎖は真核生物共通に存在しており、多くのタンパク質に付加している。ハイマンノース型、少マンノース型、複合型の3種に分類でき、それぞれの生物群によって特徴的な構造を持っている。ハイマンノース型糖鎖が、タンパク質の品質管理に関与することなど、幾つかの機能が知られているが、大部分の機能は未知である。本総説では、系統発生や個体発生の見地からN-結合型糖鎖を眺めている。

Abstract Exposure levels without appreciable human health risk may be determined by dividing a point of departure on a dose–response curve (e.g., benchmark dose) by a composite adjustment factor (AF). An “effect severity” AF (ESAF) is employed in some regulatory contexts.

ABSTRACT Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive type of primary brain tumor, and its invasive properties contribute significantly to incomplete surgical resection and tumor recurrence. Despite extensive clinical efforts to mitigate GBM invasion, targeted therapies against GBM stem cells (GSCs), which drive invasion, remain incompletely understood ...

In this review, agents such baicalein, troxerutin, epigallocatechin gallate, quercetin, melatonin, valproic acid, lithium, neurosteroid progesterone, as well as minocycline have been implicated as neuroprotective agents for irradiation‐induced neurological deficits. Also, agents such as glucocorticoids, methylphenidate, vitamin E, bisdemethoxycurcumin,

Convergent evolution of metabolic functions: Evidence from the gut microbiomes of humans and dogs
Dogs have undergone convergent evolution in their genome with humans in long‐term co‐living. Studies have shown that the gut microbiomes of dogs exhibit greater similarity to those of humans compared to mice and pigs. In our study, we first compared the gut microbiomes of macaques, three dog groups, and two wolf groups to those in humans.

This study integrates two decades of surveillance with genomic and structural analyses to decipher how spike protein glycosylation haplotypes drive avian coronavirus evolution. We uncover how specific glycosylation patterns associate with receptor‐binding affinity, shape global transmission dynamics, and correlate with clinical outcomes.

The pervasiveness of microplastic pollution poses a growing health risk, yet its long‐term metabolic consequences remain poorly defined. Here, we exposed mice to polyethylene terephthalate nanoparticle (NP) and combined histopathology, biochemistry, metabolomics, and metagenomics to resolve their interactions.

Serum predictors of native liver survival post‐Kasai: Systematic review and meta‐analysis
Abstract Objectives After hepatoportoenterostomy (HPE), a minority of biliary atresia (BA) patients reach adolescence without liver transplantation. Several serum markers have been suggested to better predict post‐HPE outcomes in BA patients. We aimed to identify serum predictors of native liver survival (NLS) in post‐HPE BA patients.
