Somatic mutational landscape in von Hippel–Lindau familial hemangioblastoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The causes of central nervous system (CNS) hemangioblastoma in Von Hippel–Lindau (vHL) disease are unclear. We used Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) on familial hemangioblastoma to investigate events that underlie tumor development. Our findings suggest that VHL loss creates a permissive environment for tumor formation, while additional alterations ...

Lead exposure induces ferroptosis in ALS cell models by activating the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Lead is a potent toxicant that exerts deleterious effects on multiple organ systems within the human body. Existing evidence suggests that lead exposure may contribute to the progression of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Rotavirus Pathogenicity

open access: yesVirology, 1996
The pathogenicity of rotaviruses depends on multiple viral and host factors. In this review the evidence for the involvement of a number of viral genes in the ability to cause disease is presented. Different genes are of importance in different rotavirus-host systems: there is no single pathogenicity factor.

Type VI secretion: a beginner's guide [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Type VI secretion is a newly described mechanism for protein transport across the cell envelope of Gram-negative bacteria. Components that have been partially characterised include an IcmF homologue, the ATPase ClpV, a regulatory FHA domain protein and ...

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

Estimating the causal effects of exposure mixtures: a generalized propensity score method

open access: yesBMC Medical Research Methodology
Background In environmental epidemiology and many other fields, estimating the causal effects of multiple concurrent exposures holds great promise for driving public health interventions and policy changes. Given the predominant reliance on observational

Regulatory variants of APOBEC3 genes potentially associate with COVID-19 severity in populations with African ancestry

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Since November 2019, the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has caused the worldwide pandemic of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), the impact of which is huge to the lives of world populations.

Identification of a new intestinal spirochete with pathogenicity for chickens [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
Two intestinal spirochete isolates obtained from chickens with diarrhea were examined by electron microscopy, biochemical tests, rRNA gene restriction pattern analysis, and multilocus enzyme electrophoresis.

Longitudinal circulating tumor DNA profiling in patients with advanced endometrial cancer using an off‐the‐shelf targeted NGS panel

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Intratumour heterogeneity complicates precision management of advanced endometrial cancer. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) offers a minimally invasive strategy to capture tumor evolution and therapeutic resistance. Here, we compare tumor‐agnostic NGS with tumor‐informed ddPCR, outlining their relative sensitivity, concordance, and clinical implications ...

Analysis of the proteome and the secretome of animal trypanosomes : a standardized analytical method to look for new molecular targets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The causative agents of animal trypanosomosis are various species of protozoan parasites belonging to the genus Trypanosoma, among which T. congolense and T. evansi are the major pathogenic species. The extra cellular position of the trypanosomes implies
