Characterization and Antibody Preparation of the Gene Products of Grouper Iridovirus ORF5L

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 5, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Grouper iridovirus (GIV) is a large DNA virus belonging to the family Iridoviridae and genus Ranavirus. It consists of 139,793 base pairs (bp) and 120 open reading frames (ORFs). GIV is a key pathogen of farmed fish worldwide. The functional roles of viral genes must be determined for the early diagnosis, treatment and prevention of viral ...

Identification of Candidate Blood Biomarkers of Recombinant Human Erythropoietin Administration Using Targeted Polar Metabolomics by HILIC‐MS/MS

Drug Testing and Analysis, Volume 17, Issue 12, Page 2323-2332, December 2025.
Using targeted HILIC‐MS/MS metabolomics, inosine and hypoxanthine were identified as potential biomarkers of EPO administration. Their consistent and sensitive plasma responses highlight their promise for inclusion in the Athlete Biological Passport (ABP), warranting further investigation to enhance anti‐doping detection strategies. ABSTRACT Increasing

The Influence of Schwann Cell Metabolism and Dysfunction on Axon Maintenance

Glia, Volume 73, Issue 12, Page 2338-2352, December 2025.
Main Points Sensory neurons depend on Schwann cells for survival. Schwann cells provide energy for axons dunng rapid firing or after injury. Dysregulated metabolism in Schwann cells can lead to the production of neurotoxic and axon degeneration. ABSTRACT Schwann cells are the glial cells in the peripheral nervous system responsible for the production ...

Insights into phosphate cooperativity and influence of substrate modifications on binding and catalysis of hexameric purine nucleoside phosphorylases. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
The hexameric purine nucleoside phosphorylase from Bacillus subtilis (BsPNP233) displays great potential to produce nucleoside analogues in industry and can be exploited in the development of new anti-tumor gene therapies.

Cordyceps sinensis (CS) Alleviates Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Symptoms (COPD) by Targeting Inflammation, Apoptosis, and Oxidative Stress Through Ingredient–Gene–Disease Interaction

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2025.
Our findings indicate that Cordyceps Sinensis (CS) alleviates COPD symptoms by inhibiting inflammation and oxidative stress, with key biomarkers such as interleukins (ILs), tumor necrosis factor (TNF), and reactive oxygen species (ROS) identified. Activating autophagy serves as a protective mechanism against COPD development induced by oxidative stress.

Transcriptomic and enzymological evidence for plastid peptidoglycan synthesis in the gymnosperm Picea abies

The Plant Journal, Volume 124, Issue 5, December 2025.
Significance Statement Peptidoglycan (murein) biosynthesis is involved in chloroplast division in mosses, while Arabidopsis MurE mutants are defective in chloroplast development. We have shown that the gymnosperm Picea abies expresses 11 genes of the peptidoglycan biosynthesis pathway, and that P.
