Characterization of the genomic landscape of canine diffuse large B-cell lymphoma reveals recurrent H3K27M mutations linked to progression-free survival by Anna Darlene van der Heiden, Raphaela Pensch, Sophie Agger, Heather L. Gardner, William Hendricks, Victoria Zismann, Shukmei Wong, Natalia Briones, Bryce Turner, Karin Forsberg-Nilsson, Cheryl London, Kerstin Lindblad-Toh, Maja Louise Arendt

“…Furthermore, many of these studies lack sufficient clinical follow-up data, making it difficult to draw meaningful associations between genetic variants and patient outcomes. Our study aimed to characterize the mutational landscape of cDLBCL using whole-genome sequencing of matched tumor-normal samples obtained from a cohort of 43 dogs previously enrolled in a clinical trial for which longitudinal follow-up was available. …”

The Vibrio type VI secretion system induces intestinal macrophage redistribution and enhanced intestinal motility by Julia S. Ngo, Piyush Amitabh, Jonah G. Sokoloff, Calvin Trinh, Travis J. Wiles, Karen Guillemin, Raghuveer Parthasarathy

“…Inoculation with Vibrio gives rise to strong, ACD-dependent, gut contractions whose magnitude resembles those resulting from genetic depletion of macrophages. Vibrio also induces tissue damage and macrophage activation, both ACD-dependent, recruiting macrophages to the site of tissue damage and away from their unperturbed positions near enteric neurons that line the midgut and regulate intestinal motility. …”

Sheppard, Ben Pascoe, Margaret N. Kosek

“…We investigated the population structure of genes in the cmeRABC operon and identified a potential genetic bottleneck for the cmeA and cmeB genes. While most cmeB alleles segregate by species, alleles associated with high resistance to fluoroquinolones and macrolides were found in both Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli. …”

Fractionation of Rare Earth Elements in Greisen and Hydrothermal Veins Related to A-Type Magmatism by Mikael Tillberg, Olga M. Maskenskaya, Henrik Drake, Johan K. Hogmalm, Curt Broman, Anthony E. Fallick, Mats E. Åström

“…The greisen consists of coarse-grained quartz, muscovite, and fluorite, whereas the veins mainly contain quartz, calcite, epidote, chlorite, and fluorite in order of abundance. A temporal and thus genetic link between the granite and the greisen/veins is established via high spatial resolution in situ Rb-Sr dating, supported by several other isotopic signatures (δ34S, 87Sr/86Sr, δ18O, and δ13C). …”

Early selective attention to the articulating mouth as a potential female-specific marker of better language development in autism: a review by Itziar Lozano, Charlotte Viktorsson, Elena Capelli, Teodora Gliga, Valentina Riva, Przemysław Tomalski

“…If so, then sex-specific early behavioral markers, potentially acting as protective markers of language, may compensate for some genetic risk markers affecting this population. Here we gather evidence from neurotypical infants and those with elevated likelihood of autism to uncover why biological sex, the development of selective attention to the mouth, and language acquisition could be intimately related in both populations. …”
