Ecological significance of fruit displays in Myrtaceae: relationship between fruit colour, maturation stage, attractiveness and seed germination

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Fruit colour has long fascinated scientists and is widely considered an evolutionary adaptation to attract both avian and mammalian frugivores. While fleshy fruits play a key role in plant–animal interactions by promoting seed dispersal, the functional significance of colour variation, particularly multicoloured displays during ripening, remains poorly

Pro‐197 mutations confer resistance to thiencarbazone but not to foramsulfuron in ALS‐resistant Poa annua populations

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Foramsulfuron remains effective on Pro‐197 Poa annua, but co‐formulation with thiencarbazone reduces efficacy due to limited activity and antagonism. Therefore, foramsulfuron + thiencarbazone should be used in fields without ALS‐resistant weeds to ensure effective in‐crop control.

TKI-mediated inhibition of NLRP1 inflammasome restores erythropoiesis in DBA syndrome

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine
Diamond-Blackfan anemia syndrome (DBAS) is marked by defective erythropoiesis caused by impaired ribosome biogenesis and aberrant signaling. Here, we investigate how ribosomal stress-induced activation of the NLRP1 inflammasome affects erythroid ...

First Assessment of Genetic Damage in the Speckled Cockroach (Nauphoeta cinerea) After Consumption of Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) Cultivated and Commercialized in Northeastern, Brazil

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study reports, for the first time, the use of the speckled cockroach Nauphoeta cinerea as a promising bioindicator for genotoxic monitoring. It was validated through control groups (both positive and negative) in addition to testing lettuce (Lactuca sativa ) samples from public street markets consumed by N. cinerea specimens in Pernambuco,

Mesenchymal Stromal Cells Combined With Elastin-Like Recombinamers Increase Angiogenesis In Vivo After Hindlimb Ischemia

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Hindlimb ischemia is an unmet medical need, especially for those patients unable to undergo vascular surgery. Cellular therapy, mainly through mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) administration, may be a potentially attractive approach in this setting. In the

Effects of Tributyltin Chloride on Human Neuronal Differentiation and Mice Brain Development

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT According to the developmental origins of health and disease hypothesis, perinatal exposure to an environmental toxicant during the development of the nervous system could cause a permanent cellular modification that may promote the appearance of neurodegenerative diseases at an older age.

Targeting the Immune System With Mesenchymal Stromal Cell-Derived Extracellular Vesicles: What Is the Cargo's Mechanism of Action?

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2019
The potent immunomodulatory activities displayed by mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) have motivated their application in hundreds of clinical trials to date.

Prospective implementation of the HCT frailty scale in adults with lymphoproliferative syndromes candidates for autologous haematopoietic stem cell transplantation: Results from a multicentre GETH‐TC study

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary This prospective study evaluated the incidence and dynamics of frailty in 156 adults with lymphoproliferative syndromes undergoing autologous haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Frailty was assessed using the haematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) frailty scale in patients from 15 Spanish institutions at initial consultation ...

Inactivation of human plasma alters the structure and biomechanical properties of engineered tissues

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Fibrin is widely used for tissue engineering applications. The use of blood derivatives, however, carries a high risk of transmission of infectious agents, necessitating the application of pathogen reduction technology (PRT).
