Candidate gene length polymorphisms are linked to dispersive behaviour: searching for a mechanism behind the "paradox of the great speciators"

The study investigates genetic associations between dispersal behavior and six candidate genes in silvereye populations, finding links between allele length variations and dispersal propensity.

Modulation of the mTOR pathway plays a central role in dendritic cell functions after Echinococcus granulosus antigen recognition.

This study investigates how Echinococcus granulosus antigens modulate dendritic cell functions via the mTOR pathway, affecting cytokine production, co-stimulatory molecules, and antigen presentation.
