Development and Characterization of Liposomes Containing a Zn(II) Porphyrin Derivative for the Application of Photodynamic Therapy in the Treatment of Breast Cancer

Lasers in Surgery and Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives This study aims to synthesize and characterize lipid nanosystems (liposomes) for the incorporation of a Zn(II) porphyrin derivative, Zn(II) meso‐tetrakis(N‐n‐hexylpyridinium‐2‐yl)porphyrin (ZnTnHex‐2‐PyP4+, ZnPH), intending to employ an alternative method of treatment, such as photodynamic therapy (PDT), for breast cancer (BC ...

Proteoforms in Disease: Biomedical Applications of Top‐Down Proteomics

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The proteome is a dynamic landscape of proteoforms arising from genetic mutations, alternative splicing, and post‐translational modifications (PTMs), which collectively drive biological function and disease phenotypes. Mass spectrometry (MS)‐based proteomics has emerged as an essential technique for elucidating this molecular complexity ...

Prevalence and drivers of ectoparasite abundance on Norway rats (Rattus norvegicus) in New York City residential complexes

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Norway rat ectoparasite burden varied by residential microhabitat, host traits, and trap type, showing that urban rodent management should address both rat burden and ectoparasite persistence in residential buildings. Abstract BACKGROUND Norway rats, Rattus norvegicus (Berkenhout), can carry ectoparasites of public health importance.

Artificial Intelligence for Blue Transformation: A Review of Predictive Modeling and Decision Support Systems in Sustainable Aquaculture

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The FAO's “blue transformation” roadmap necessitates a fundamental shift towards precision aquaculture to meet global food security targets while minimizing environmental footprints. This review provides a comprehensive overview of how artificial intelligence (AI) and decision support systems (DSS) serve as pivotal enablers for the “better ...

Husbandry factors are associated with skin, gastrointestinal and ophthalmic disorders in leopard geckos (Eublepharis macularius)

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Research into disorders in captive reptiles is notably sparse in the UK, despite the popularity of various species as pets. This study aimed to survey and investigate risk factors for disorders of leopard geckos in the UK. Methods Medical records for leopard geckos presenting at three veterinary practices between 2019 and 2023 were ...

Disease of South American camelids in England and Wales: Analysis of diagnoses from Animal and Plant Health Agency laboratory submissions between 2012 and 2021

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background South American camelids (SACs) have become increasingly popular in the UK. Consequently, knowledge among veterinary practitioners about diseases in these non‐native species has improved, although gaps remain. The remit of this study was to identify common diseases of SACs based on Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) surveillance ...

Association of Cat Sensitization With Comorbid Asthma in Patients With Allergic Rhinitis: A Real‐World Study

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The prevalence of allergic rhinitis (AR) and asthma (AS) comorbidity (AR + AS) is increasing and is associated with severe allergic symptoms. The impact of cat dander sensitization on AR + AS remains unclear. Methods In this retrospective study, 1154 patients with AR alone and 213 patients with AR + AS were enrolled at the Third ...

Cortisol concentrations in hair are biomarkers of health status and seasonal change, but not urbanisation, in wolves

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wolves have reclaimed much of their former range in Europe, including areas with a high human footprint, yet the physiological impacts of human‐associated stressors remain poorly understood. We first examined methodological factors affecting hair cortisol concentrations (HCC) in wolves by using a ‘shave/re‐shave' design to assess hair growth rate and ...
