This study develops LAMP assays for detecting FOE in oil palm seedlings but finds they cannot distinguish FOE from presumed-FOE and non-FOE isolates.

The study evaluates the upgrade rate of radial scar/complex sclerosing lesion with atypia to malignancy on surgical excision, finding higher rates with atypical ductal hyperplasia than lobular neoplasia.

This study uses hPSC-derived 3D lung organoids to model fibrotic lung disease, identifying IL-11 as a potential therapeutic target for IPF and HPSIP.

This study identifies a proteolytic cleavage mechanism in INF2 that affects its function in podocytes, leading to impaired localization and contributing to FSGS.

This study uses convolutional neural networks to classify non-small cell lung cancer histopathology types and transcriptomic subtypes using whole-slide images from The Cancer Genome Atlas.

This study shows that deleting Ppar in hepatocytes promotes NASH in obese mice without glucose intolerance, highlighting the role of extra-hepatocyte PPAR in metabolic responses to HFD.

The paper uses a multimodal approach to identify clinically relevant parameters for tracking disease progression in a mouse model of Batten disease.

This study examines hippocampal morphometric features in SUDEP cases and controls, finding no significant differences in granule cell dispersion or malrotation features, but noting right-sided PHG asymmetry in SUDEP.

This study characterizes age-related morphological changes in carotid and cerebral arteries of sickle cell anemia mice using ultrasound and micro-CT, finding increased arterial dimensions and narrowing in SS mice.

This paper evaluates a ZIKV vaccine based on chimpanzee adenovirus ChAdOx1, showing it provides sterile immunity against both Asian and African lineages and prevents viral colonization of brain and ovaries.

This study identifies urinary proteins in dogs with babesiosis-induced kidney injury and finds 8 proteins linked to immune and inflammatory pathways that may serve as biomarkers for early renal damage.

This study identifies green autofluorescence intensity in fingernails and skin regions as a non-invasive biomarker for assessing blood vessel health and risk of stroke or myocardial infarction.

This study investigates the role of the CFTR-NHERF2-LPA2 complex in inflammatory responses of intestinal epithelial cells, finding it necessary for IL-8 expression.

This study assesses HPV knowledge, attitudes, and awareness among New Zealand health professionals, finding gaps in understanding HPV's role in cancer and testing protocols.

This study identifies α-tubulin in Laodelphax striatellus as a facilitator of rice stripe virus (RSV) passage through midgut and salivary glands, enhancing horizontal transmission.

This study evaluates the potential of Colletotrichum typhae as a mycoherbicide to control Typha domingensis in vitro and in greenhouse conditions.

The paper uses RNA-sequencing to analyze the transcriptome of canine XLMTM muscle after rAAV8-cMTM1 gene transfer, showing dose-dependent normalization of gene expression and identifying new disease-related transcripts.

This study shows TSPO ligand 18F-PBR111 accumulates in atherosclerotic plaques and identifies CD11b+ macrophages as key TSPO-expressing cells during lesion progression.

This study shows that TDAG8 inhibits intestinal inflammation in a DSS-induced colitis mouse model, with implications for IBD treatment.
