The Role of Non-Genomic Information in Maintaining Thermodynamic Stability in Living Systems by Robert A. Gatenby, B. Roy Frieden

“…Living systems represent a local exception, albeittransient, to the second law of thermodynamics, which requiresentropy or disorder to increase with time. Cells maintain a stableordered state by generating a steep transmembrane entropy gradientin an open thermodynamic system far from equilibrium through avariety of entropy exchange mechanisms. …”

Neural recordings can differentiate between spontaneously metastasizing melanomas and melanomas with low metastatic potential. by Jay Shiralkar, Tiana Anthony, Grant A McCallum, Dominique M Durand

“…We performed daily neural recordings from male and female mice bearing orthotopic metastasizing- melanomas and melanomas with low metastatic poential, derived from B16-F10 and B16-F1 cells, respectively. Further, to explore the origins of neural activity, 6-Hydroxidopamine mediated chemical sympathectomy was performed followed by daily microneurographic recordings. …”

Time-Space Translation: A Developmental Principle by A. J. Durston, H. J. Jansen, S. A. Wacker

“…We present a model describing that the NOM acquires transiently stable hox codes and spatial collinearity, and that morphogenetic movements then continually bring new cells from the NOM within the range of SO signals that cause transfer of the mesodermal pattern to a stable pattern in neurectoderm and, thereby, create patterned axial structures. …”

CONDITIONS OF SKIN AND INTESTINE MICROBIOTES IN PATIENTS WITH PSORIASIS by Ya.O. Yemchenko, K.E. Ishcheikin, I.P. Kaidashev, G.Yu. Morokhovets

“…Changes in the microbiome associated with psoriasis can induce an inflammatory response by activating the cytokines IL-23, IL-17 and IL-22, as well as modulating gamma-interferon and inhibiting the production of T-regulatory cells. This leads to the uncontrolled growth of keratinocytes. …”

Blocking Interleukin-33 Alleviates the Joint Inflammation and Inhibits the Development of Collagen-Induced Arthritis in Mice by Yan Li, Yeqin Fu, Huan Chen, Xiaojin Liu, Mingcai Li

“…Moreover, anti-IL-33 treatment significantly downregulated the production of IFN-γ, IL-6, IL-12, IL-33, and TNF-α in ex vivo-stimulated spleen cells. Together, our results indicate that the IL-33-neutralizing antibody may provide a therapeutic strategy for RA by inhibiting the release of proinflammatory cytokines.…”
