Novel platinum nanoclusters (Pt NCs) induce mitochondrial apoptosis and damaging autophagy for the treatment of osteosarcoma—from the perspective of P53 mutation status in differen... by Jialin Wang, Haodi Yue, Xin Huang, Hongjian Liu, Mengjun Zhang

“…The inhibitory effect on the malignant characteristics of MG-63 (P53−) cells was more obvious, indicating that the potential anticancer effect of Pt NCs was not dependent on P53. Animal experiments have substantiated the in vivo anticancer properties of Pt NCs, while also revealing their lower toxicity on cells and tissues. …”

Scaffolded Antigens in Yeast Cell Particle Vaccines Provide Protection against Systemic Polyoma Virus Infection by Donald J. Tipper, Eva Szomolanyi-Tsuda

“…Current YCP formulations, therefore, are not suitable for human use but have considerable potential for use in feed animal vaccines. Significantly, a YCP vaccine expressing a GFP fusion to VP1, the murine polyoma virus major capsid protein, after either oral or subcutaneous administration, protected mice against an intraperitoneal polyoma virus challenge, reducing viral DNA levels in spleen and liver by >98%.…”

The role of Ca2+ signalling and InsP3R in the pathogenesis of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy by Dan Pan, Mengting Jiang, Guoxian Tao, Jinmei Shi, Zhiwei Song, Ren Chen, Dongguo Wang

“…Background In order to contribute new insights for future prevention and treatment of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP), and to promote positive pregnancy outcomes, we evaluated serum Ca2+ levels and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (InsP3R) expression in the liver tissue of a rat ICP model.Methods After establishing the model by injection of oestradiol benzoate and progesterone into pregnant rats, animals were divided into normal control (n = 5) and ICP model groups (n = 5). …”

Acquired Elliptocytosis as a Manifestation of Myelodysplastic Syndrome Associated with Deletion of Chromosome 20q by Sukesh Manthri, Naresh K. Vasireddy, Sindhura Bandaru, Swati Pathak

“…Elliptocytosis in the setting of MDS has rarely been reported, and association with 20q deletion is even rarer. Animal studies have shown that haploinsufficiency of L3MBTL1 contributes to some (20q−) myeloproliferative neoplasms and myelodysplastic syndromes by affecting erythroid differentiation. …”

Deletion of IRS-1 leads to growth failure and insulin resistance with downregulation of liver and muscle insulin signaling in rats by Yuka Toyoshima, Katsuyuki Nakamura, Yusuke Taguchi, Reiko Tokita, Shiho Takeuchi, Hayato Osawa, Naomi Teramoto, Hidetoshi Sugihara, Fumiaki Yoshizawa, Keitaro Yamanouchi, Shiro Minami

“…The physiological functions of these proteins have been intensively investigated in mice, while little is known in other animals. Our previous study showed that the disruption of IRS-2 impairs body growth but not glucose tolerance or insulin sensitivity in rats, which led us to hypothesize that IRS-1 plays more pivotal roles in insulin functions than IRS-2. …”

Understanding the impacts of drought on peanuts (Arachis hypogaea L.): exploring physio-genetic mechanisms to develop drought-resilient peanut cultivars by Sameer Pokhrel, Prasanna Kharel, Swikriti Pandey, Stephanie Botton, Gema Takbir Nugraha, Corley Holbrook, Peggy Ozias-Akins

“…Peanuts under drought stress exhibit higher levels of pre-harvest aflatoxin contamination, a toxic fungal metabolite detrimental to both humans and animals. One way to sustain peanut production in drought-prone regions and address pre-harvest aflatoxin contamination is by developing drought-tolerant peanut cultivars, a process that can be accelerated by understanding the underlying physiological and genetic mechanisms for tolerance to drought stress. …”
