Volumetric MRI study of the brain in patients with neurocysticercosis and mesial temporal lobe epilepsy

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Neurocysticercosis (NCC) is a common parasitic infection of the central nervous system and a known cause of focal epilepsy. Its potential role in triggering or contributing to mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis (MTLE‐HS) is suggested, but the impact on brain volumetry remains unclear.

Plant‐produced encapsulin displays non‐typhoidal Salmonella enterica antigens and assembles into mosaic nanoparticles

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
This study investigates the potential of encapsulin as an antigen display platform for the development of a candidate Salmonella vaccine for poultry. Encapsulin constructs were transiently expressed in Nicotiana benthamiana where they accumulated to high levels.

Ossification of the cranium of Inpaichthys kerri (Characiformes: Acestrorhamphidae) with discussion of paedomorphic traits in the genus

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
In this study, we present a detailed description of the cranial development of Inpaichthys kerri (Characiformes: Acestrorhamphidae), highlighting important topics such as pedomorphic characters and their relationship with ontogeny and phylogeny, as well as ossification sequences unique to the species. Abstract The study of development provides valuable

The junction between the midgut and hindgut co‐localizes with the rectosigmoid junction

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
At 5 weeks of development, the midgut has formed its primary loop (left). It is well established that the midgut is bounded cranially by the caudal end of the ventral mesentery and the presence of the common bile duct, but its caudal boundary remains to be established.
