Provenance legacies override species effects in shaping oak rhizosphere microbiomes and metabolomes

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Graphical representation of experimental setup. Quercus spp. seeds were collected at two origins: upper Rhine basin (URB) and north German lowland (NGL). Summary As climate change drives more frequent drought‐heat extremes, selecting drought‐tolerant trees is crucial for future forest resilience. However, the role of tree–microbial associations remains

Calcinosis Cutis and Delayed‐Onset Myositis in a Case of Suspected Localized Scleroderma: A Diagnostic and Therapeutic Challenge

Pediatric Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 16‐year‐old girl presenting with calcinosis cutis and localized scleroderma subsequently developed delayed‐onset idiopathic inflammatory myopathy five years after initial skin involvement. Despite the absence of typical dermatomyositis features and negative myositis‐specific antibodies, whole‐body MRI revealed extensive subclinical muscle ...

Apoptosis kinetics of purified and PBMC‐associated lymphocytes after photopheresis‐like 8‐methoxypsolaren/UVA treatment

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) induces apoptosis in circulating immune cells, but its kinetics vary slightly depending on the cell type. We compared the progression of apoptosis in PBMCs versus highly purified T cells exposed to 8‐methoxypsoralen and ultraviolet A.
