Sea Turtles Employ Drag-Reducing Techniques to Conserve Energy

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
Sea turtles are recognised as one of the ocean’s most remarkable migratory species, accomplishing journeys that cover thousands of kilometres. This fact is even more extraordinary when considering sea turtles consume mostly low-energy foods.

MET and NF2 alterations confer primary and early resistance to first‐line alectinib treatment in ALK‐positive non‐small‐cell lung cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Alectinib resistance in ALK+ NSCLC depends on treatment sequence and EML4‐ALK variants. Variant 1 exhibited off‐target resistance after first‐line treatment, while variant 3 and later lines favored on‐target mutations. Early resistance involved off‐target alterations, like MET and NF2, while on‐target mutations emerged with prolonged therapy.
