Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty
Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.

This study compared the ecological toxicity of organic ultraviolet filters, octocrylene (OC) and ethylhexyl salicylate (EHS), on zebrafish embryos and larvae. EHS exhibited higher acute toxicity, causing increased mortality, hypoactive behavior at 50 mg/L, and disruptions in lipid homeostasis, while OC primarily affected hypoxia response and ...

Training the Fetal Immune System Through Maternal Inflammation-A Layered Hygiene Hypothesis. [PDF]
Over the last century, the alarming surge in allergy and autoimmune disease has led to the hypothesis that decreasing exposure to microbes, which has accompanied industrialization and modern life in the Western world, has fundamentally altered the immune

BRD9 inhibition as potential treatment option for testicular germ cell tumors
Abstract Background Testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) are the predominant tumor in younger males. Usually, 5‐year survival rates are quite high, but 15–20% of patients with metastatic non‐seminomas are resistant to standard cisplatin‐based therapy.

Distribution of endothelial cell protein C/activated protein C receptor (EPCR) during mouse embryo development. [PDF]
The endothelial cell protein C receptor (EPCR) augments protein C activation by the thrombomodulin.thrombin complex. Deletion of the EPCR gene in mice has been reported to lead to embryonic lethality before embryonic day 10 (E10.0). To identify potential

ABSTRACT Background The most prevalent solid tumors in young men are testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs), and embryonal carcinoma is the most common subtype among non‐seminomatous germ cell tumors (NSGCTs). Despite the excellent cure rates of cisplatin‐based chemotherapy, resistance develops in 15%–30% of patients with metastatic cancer, which results ...

A Unified Machine Learning Model for Relapse Prediction in Clinical Stage I Testicular Cancer
ABSTRACT Background Approximately one‐fourth of patients with clinical stage I testicular cancer relapse. For decades, risk stratification has been based on different tumor characteristics for seminomas and non‐seminomas. Previous studies primarily used Cox proportional‐hazards models and included only a limited number of variables.
