Advanced Science, EarlyView.VCIPIP1 emerges as a molecular link between protein stability and prostate cancer progression. By deubiquitinating and stabilizing UBE3A, VCIPIP1 promotes p53 degradation and progression to castration‐resistant prostate cancer. Elevated VCIPIP1 expression is associated with shorter castration‐resistant prostate cancer–free survival, highlighting the ...

Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rural farm households continue to face significant risks from climate change, resulting in many of them diversifying their livelihood sources into other income‐generating activities to increase their incomes and improve food and nutrition security. In this study, we examine the drivers and impact of farm households' participation in livelihood

A novel, resistance-linked ovine PrP variant and its equivalent mouse variant modulate the in vitro cell-free conversion of rPrP to PrPres [PDF]
, 2006 Prion diseases are associated with the conversion of the normal cellular prion protein, PrPC, to the abnormal, disease-associated form, PrPSc. This conversion can be mimicked in vitro by using a cell-free conversion assay. It has recently been shown that

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract Our general interest is in global trade loss from livestock pathogens, specifically exports. We adopt a causal inference approach that considers animal disease outbreaks over time as non‐staggered binary treatments with the potential for switching in (infection) and out of treatment (recovery) within the sample period. The outcome evolution of

Proteins as markers of TSE infection in sheep blood
, 2008 Transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) are a group of fatal infectious neurodegenerative diseases affecting both humans and agricultural animals. TSE transmission via blood transfusion has been demonstrated experimentally in rodent, primate and

Recognition of lameness and decisions to catch for inspection among sheep farmers and specialists in GB [PDF]
, 2008 Background: Epidemiological studies have used farmer estimates of the prevalence of lameness in their flocks. This assumes that farmers can identify lame sheep.

Animal stroke models and outcome evaluation: A review
Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.Rodents are the preeminent stroke model species. Large animal models exist too, but are poorly standardized. Ischemic and hemorrhagic experimental models are available, with the intraluminal filament model being predominant. Outcomes are evaluated via quantifying subjects' sensorimotor impairment, cognitive memory faculties, degree of cellular ...
