Circulating microRNA signatures of cachexia and cancer in Canis familiaris as a comparative oncology model for human disease

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Circulating microRNAs as biomarkers of cachexia and sex‐specific cancer in senior dogs. In 25 client‐owned dogs, four circulating miRNAs (miR‐15a, miR‐15b, miR‐16, miR‐140) were downregulated in cachexia, with miR‐16 the strongest individual biomarker (AUC = 0.899).

Pharmacological chromatin remodeling enhances response to estrogen therapy in ER+ breast cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Estrogen therapy elicits clinical benefit in ~ 30% of patients with endocrine‐resistant estrogen receptor (ER)‐positive breast cancer. Based on findings that ER transcriptional activation underlies response to estrogen therapy, we tested the effects of epigenetic dysregulation via pharmacological inhibition of histone deacetylases (HDACi).

Raman‐based label‐free microscopic analysis of the pancreas in living zebrafish larvae

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Forward stimulated Raman scattering (F‐SRS) and epi coherent anti‐Stokes Raman scattering (E‐CARS) allow label‐free discrimination of distinct subcellular structures in the pancreas of living zebrafish larvae. Given the straightforward applicability, we anticipate broad implementation of Raman microscopy in other organs and across various biomedical ...

Benzo[a]pyrene degradation by Kefir-derived microbiota: medium optimization and metabolic pathways

Frontiers in Microbiology
Benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) is a highly carcinogenic and environmentally persistent polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) due to its low bioavailability and resistance to degradation.

A light‐triggered Time‐Resolved X‐ray Solution Scattering (TR‐XSS) workflow with application to protein conformational dynamics

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Time‐resolved X‐ray solution scattering captures how proteins change shape in real time under near‐native conditions. This article presents a practical workflow for light‐triggered TR‐XSS experiments, from data collection to structural refinement. Using a calcium‐transporting membrane protein as an example, the approach can be broadly applied to study ...

Persistence of sub‐clinical infections caused by Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis in stream anurans in South Asia

Ecosphere
Chytridiomycosis is caused by Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) and contributes significantly to amphibian declines globally. It has affected more than 500 amphibian species on five continents.

Evolutionary divergence and functional characterization of the lavender metallothionein (LaMT) gene family in heavy metal stress tolerance

Industrial Crops and Products
Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia Mill.) is valued for its essential oil and potential in phytoremediation of heavy metal-contaminated soils. Importantly, the oil remains free of metals like lead, cadmium, and zinc even when plants are grown in polluted ...

Blood‐based proteomic profiling reveals context‐dependent changes in BCL2‐associated signaling during taxane therapy in breast cancer patients

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Chemotherapy side effects significantly impact cancer survivors' quality of life. Using protein levels in blood samples from breast cancer patients before and after 12 weeks of taxane treatment, we detected treatment‐dependent changes in calcium signaling and aging pathways associated with cancer recurrence.

Long‐term hippocampal alterations and cognitive impairment in a murine model of surgical sepsis

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Using a mouse model of surgical sepsis, we tested long‐term memory and analyzed the transcriptome of single cells isolated from the hippocampus. Survivor mice showed worse memory, loss of certain brain cell subpopulations, and abnormal immune cell activity—suggesting that post‐sepsis brain alterations may be linked to cognitive deficits.

Genome-wide investigation of WRKY gene family in Lavandula angustifolia and potential role of LaWRKY57 and LaWRKY75 in the regulation of terpenoid biosynthesis

Frontiers in Plant Science
The WRKY transcription factors are integral to plant biology, serving essential functions in growth, development, stress responses, and the control of secondary metabolism.
