Prognostic Significance of the Modified Glasgow Prognostic Score in Patients With Stage IV Melanoma Receiving Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors: A Single‐Center Retrospective Study

The Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have transformed the treatment landscape for malignant melanoma (MM). However, given variable response rates and potential toxicities, identifying robust biomarkers is crucial. We investigated whether the modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS) predicts treatment efficacy and toxicity in Asian patients with

Species‐specific scents, targeted enemies: Volatile cues mediate predator attraction in willows

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plants produce volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in response to herbivory. Such signals mediate plant interactions with herbivores and their natural enemies. Different herbivores can elicit distinct responses in plants, influencing predator attraction.

From Tobacco to Ultraprocessed Food: How Industry Engineering Fuels the Epidemic of Preventable Disease

The Milbank Quarterly, EarlyView.
Policy Points Ultraprocessed foods (UPFs) are engineered to heighten reward and accelerate delivery of reinforcing ingredients, driving compulsive consumption and disrupting appetite regulation. This is a growing challenge for health policy. UPFs share key engineering strategies adopted from the tobacco industry, such as dose optimization and hedonic ...

Maltase 1 regulates DENV2 infection and life history in Aedes aegypti

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Our study employed CRISPR/Cas9 to generate a MAL1 knockout strain of Aedes aegypti, demonstrating that the absence of MAL1 significantly suppresses DENV2 replication in the midgut and impairs viral transmission. The mutation also altered life‐history (hatching/pupation/emerging rates and sex‐specific survival), identifying MAL1 as a novel target for ...
