Rapunzel Syndrome: A Case Report

Journal of Nepal Medical Association
Rapunzel Syndrome is a rare clinical condition characterized by a trichobezoar in the stomach with its tail extending into the small intestine. It is commonly seen in adolescent females with only a few cases reported in children below 5 years of age ...

IMPDH inhibition enhances cytarabine efficacy in SAMHD1‐expressing leukaemia cells via guanine nucleotide depletion

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cytarabine is a key therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but its efficacy is limited by the dNTPase SAMHD1, which hydrolyses its active metabolite. Screening nucleotide biosynthesis inhibitors revealed that IMPDH inhibitors selectively sensitise SAMHD1‐proficient AML cells to cytarabine.

Sensitivity of tail rotor noise to helicopter configuration in forward flight [PDF]

, 2009
Understanding the mechanisms that lead to the production of noise by tail rotors across a broad range of flight conditions and helicopter configurations remains an active area of research.

SILENT THREATS: INTESTINAL PARASITIC INFECTIONS IN CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE PATIENTS IN ALGERIA [PDF]

Journal of the Egyptian Society of Parasitology
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are immunocompromised and more susceptible to opportunistic infections, including gastrointestinal parasites. Parasites in CKD are more or less limited in North African countries.

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

Transcriptional profiling of circulating extracellular vesicles from prebiopsy prostate cancer patients

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
RNA profiling of circulating extracellular vesicles (EVs) from blood samples of men undergoing prostate biopsy identifies transcripts associated with clinically significant prostate cancer. Integrative analysis with public tumor datasets links EV‐derived gene signatures to tumor stage and progression‐free survival, highlighting CASP3, XRCC2, and RIT1 ...

Developmental programmes drive cellular plasticity, disease progression and therapy resistance in lung adenocarcinoma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study shows that lung adenocarcinomas exploit developmental branching morphogenesis to acquire a therapy resistant basal‐like tumour cell state. This process was found to be regulated by combined TP53 loss‐of‐function and type‐I interferon signalling, identifying a novel axis for biomarker and therapeutic target discovery.

Function of the tail in myliobatid rays: role in controlling body stability

Royal Society Open Science
Eagle rays, cownose rays and manta rays are the only batoid families exhibiting oscillatory locomotion, and are characterized by long, slender tails. This study investigates whether tail length influences body stability when the pectoral fins are held in

USP29‐regulated noncanonical stabilization of the hypoxia‐inducible factor‐α in aggressive prostate cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We identify USP29 as the only DUB mirroring CA9 expression, a marker of hypoxia and HIF pathway activation associated with PCA aggressiveness. USP29 stabilizes HIF‐1α and HIF‐2α via a noncanonical mechanism that is independent of PHD/pVHL activity yet relies on proteasomal regulation, establishing USP29 as a previously unrecognized regulator of hypoxic

Monte Carlo-Based Tail Exponent Estimator [PDF]

In this paper we study the finite sample behavior of the Hill estimator under α-stable distributions. Using large Monte Carlo simulations we show that the Hill estimator overestimates the true tail exponent and can hardly be used on samples with small ...
