The Crude Venom of the Whitetail Lancehead, Bothrops leucurus, and Two of Its Enzymatic Components Are Selectively Cytotoxic for Glioma Cells In Vitro

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Malignant glioma is the most common primary brain tumor, and glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) remains its most aggressive and incurable form. Snake venoms contain bioactive compounds with promising antitumoral properties against several cancer types.

Adaptive Immunity in Marsupials

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
Comparison of the marsupial and eutherian adaptive immune systems. ABSTRACT Marsupials diverged from eutherian mammals 125–160 million years ago. Although evolutionarily distinct, both groups of mammals can produce complex adaptive immune responses to antigens with several key differences.

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Polyphenol dietary supplementation prevents inflammation‐induced muscle atrophy in a zebrafish (Danio rerio) model

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Diet‐induced inflammation is a major cause of muscle degeneration impacting human and animal health. Owing to their anti‐inflammatory and antioxidant properties, polyphenols have attracted considerable interest as feed additives.

Ultra‐High Frequency Ultrasound Imaging and Quantification of Microvascular Flow in Xenograft Renal Cell Carcinoma in an Avian Chorioallantoic Membrane Model

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Patient‐derived xenograft (PDX) tumor models initiated in avian chorioallantoic membranes (CAM) are under investigation to evaluate the effectiveness of therapeutic options with the objective of personalizing treatments. CAM PDXs paired with ultra‐high frequency ultrasound (UHFUS) imaging could potentially constitute prospective high throughput assays ...
