Although the use of lamellar grafts is increasing in adults, their relatively slower adoption in pediatric population is attributable to the steep learning curve and lack of long-term follow up data. We describe the challenges associated with these procedures and their outcomes in pediatric eyes. Magnetic nanoparticle targeting in tumor areas is…[Read more]

At a somatic level, the most common driver mutation is BRAF, second most common NRAS, third NF1 and increasing numbers of additional rarer mutations are being identified such as in TP53. It is of note that the BRAF and NRAS mutations are not C>T accepted as characteristic of ultraviolet light induced mutations.Cutaneous malignant melanoma is a…[Read more]

Kinship among interacting individuals is often associated with sociality and also with sex ratio effects. Parasitoids in the bethylid genus Goniozus are sub-social, with single foundress females exhibiting post-ovipositional maternal care via short-term aggressive host and brood defence against conspecific females. Due to local mate competition…[Read more]

Diversity was not affected by adenoid size, however use of nasal steroids, inhaled steroids, and antihistamines influenced diversity in both the nasopharynx and nasal cavity. Nasopharyngeal samples were higher in relative abundance for Fusobacterium, Prevotella, Porphyromonas and Campylobacter compared to the nasal cavity. CONCLUSIONS The…[Read more]

Hereditary hearing impairment (HI) is a heterogeneous condition with over 130 genes associated with genetic non-syndromic HI (NSHI) and Usher syndrome (USH). Approximately 80% of hereditary NSHI cases have autosomal recessive (AR) mode of inheritance. The high rate of consanguinity and endogamy in the Maghreb countries, including Tunisia, Algeria…[Read more]

Published by Elsevier Inc.Cancer cell-derived secretomes have been documented to play critical roles in cancer progression. Intriguingly, alternative extracellular roles of intracellular proteins are involved in various steps of tumor progression, which can offer strategies to fight cancer. Herein, we identify lung cancer progression-associated…[Read more]

We performed functional assays to characterize its biological relevance. The results showed that the T allele of rs17079281 had higher binding affinity to transcription factor YY1 than the C allele, which suppressed DCBLD1 expression. DCBLD1 behaved like an oncogene, promoting tumor growth by influencing cell cycle progression. These findings…[Read more]
