This study identifies Vibrio cholerae in diseased bullfrogs and suggests it can transmit to humans via bullfrog food and aquaculture water, posing a health risk.

This study shows that the APOE ε4 allele causes earlier age-related decline in amyloid β clearance in the human cortex, supporting early intervention strategies for Alzheimer's disease.

The study isolates virulent Tenacibaculum maritimum strains from diseased orbicular batfish in Tahiti, linking them to white-patch disease and identifying genetic diversity among isolates.

This paper describes a soluble ACE2 protein that prevents lethal SARS-CoV-2 infection in mice by blocking viral entry and reducing viral titers.

The paper quantifies cardiac tissue replacement, collagen deposition, and pro-inflammatory cytokines in ethanol-drinking rats to study alcoholic cardiomyopathy.

This paper describes the progression of osteoarthritis in a rat medial meniscus transection model at 3, 6, and 12 weeks post-surgery, showing increasing cartilage degradation, subchondral bone thickening, and osteophyte formation.

This study shows that MFG-E8 promotes Ang II-induced arterial inflammation and remodeling in aging, and its deficiency reduces these effects.

This study finds that synovial levels of IL-8, MIP-1α, and VEGFA correlate with lubricin glycan truncation in OA, suggesting a link between glycan changes and local inflammation.

The paper examines gene x environment interactions in PTSD by analyzing glucocorticoid-induced transcriptomics in human neurons and blood cells from veterans with and without PTSD.

This study develops a numerical model of the eyeball to simulate blunt injuries and compares results with clinical data, finding that impact direction determines rupture location and severity.

This study uses single-cell RNA sequencing to identify cell type-specific molecular changes and altered intercellular communications in COPD, linking them to alveolar epithelial dysfunction.

The paper evaluates the optimal cut-off value of the Nelwan Score for diagnosing typhoid fever in adults, finding a cut-off of 10 with 71.3% AUC and high NPV.

This study identifies FAM114A1 as a regulator of cardiac fibrosis by modulating Ang II signaling in cardiac fibroblasts, showing its role in fibrosis and potential as a therapeutic target.

This study examines vaccine storage and handling practices in rural Kenyan agro-shops for Newcastle disease vaccines, identifying challenges like power outages and cost that affect vaccine safety.

This study detects a high transmission rate of Actinidia seed-born latent virus (ASbLV) from both paternal and maternal parents in kiwifruit plants.

This paper links SARS-CoV-2 infection to RyR2 channel dysfunction and oxidative stress, showing similar neuropathological pathways as in Alzheimer's Disease.

This study shows that nuclear HMGB1 suppresses liver lipogenesis in NAFLD by inhibiting LXR activity, preventing steatosis and insulin resistance.

This study uses single-cell RNA sequencing to analyze aging-related changes in subcutaneous adipose tissue, revealing shifts in cellular roles and metabolic phenotypes associated with aging.

This study evaluates the effectiveness of fungicides, botanical extracts, and biocontrol agents in inducing physio-biochemical tolerance in turmeric plants infected with Colletotrichum gloeosporioides.

This study examines health issues in falcons treated at a clinic in Al Ain, UAE, identifying common conditions and treatments.
