FREM1 (Fras-related extracellular matrix 1) and its splice variant TILRR (Toll-like interleukin-1 receptor regulator) have been identified as integral components of innate immune systems. The potential involvement of FREM1 in HIV-1 (human immunodefic...

The TLRs and IL-1 receptors have evolved to coordinate the innate immune response following pathogen invasion. Receptors and signalling intermediates of these systems are generally characterised by a high level of evolutionary conservation. The recen...

Gliomas are the most common malignant brain tumors with high mortality rates. Recently we showed that the FREM2 gene has a role in glioblastoma progression. Here we reconstructed the FREM2 molecular pathway using the human interactome model. We asses...

World Health Organization grade IV diffuse gliomas, known as glioblastomas, are the most common malignant brain tumors, and they show poor prognosis. Multimodal treatment of surgery followed by radiation and chemotherapy is not sufficient to increase...

Glioblastoma (GB) is the most aggressive brain malignancy. Although some potential glioblastoma biomarkers have already been identified, there is a lack of cell membrane-bound biomarkers capable of distinguishing brain tissue from glioblastoma and/or...

Fragmentation Resilience Energy Mass Spectrometry (FREMS) builds on the field of energy-resolved mass spectrometry and previously used methods, e.g., Survival Yield. It exploits breakdown energies at near “continuous” ramp (0.2% NCE incre...

AMACO (VWA2 protein), secreted by epithelial cells, is strongly expressed at basement membranes when budding or invagination occurs in embryos. In skin, AMACO associates with proteins of the Fraser complex, which form anchoring cords. These, during d...

Background: Supernumerary teeth refer to extra teeth that exceed the usual number of dentitions. A mesiodens is a particular form of supernumerary tooth, which is located in the premaxilla region. The objective of the study was to investigate the gen...

Background: Frequency Rhythmic Electrical Modulated System (FREMS) is a method of transcutaneous treatment based on frequency-modulated electromagnetic neural stimulation. Its efficacy in neuropathic pain in diabetes mellitus still lacks enough resea...

Background/Objectives: Glioblastomas are the most common brain malignancies. Despite the implementation of multimodal therapy, patient life expectancy after diagnosis is barely 12 to 18 months. Glioblastomas are highly heterogeneous at the genetic an...

Natural immunity against HIV has been observed in many individuals in the world. Among them, a group of female sex workers enrolled in the Pumwani sex worker cohort remained HIV uninfected for more than 30 years despite high-risk sex work. Many studi...

Continuous earthmoving machines, such as bucket-wheel excavators (BWEs), are the largest mobile terrestrial machines exposed to the working loads of a periodic character. This paper aims to launch a new idea regarding the preservation of the load-car...

The marine environment is a promising source of natural products with possible pharmacological applications. In this sense, marine microorganisms, especially marine fungi, can produce bioactive compounds with various therapeutic properties. Colorecta...

In 2021, the fifth edition of the WHO classification of tumors of the central nervous system (WHO CNS5) was published. Molecular features of tumors were directly incorporated into the diagnostic decision tree, thus affecting both the typing and stagi...

Crossbred sheep have many prominent traits, such as excellent production performance and high-quality meat, when compared to local sheep breeds. However, the genetic molecular markers related to these characteristics remain unclear. The crossbred MG...

No genetic basis is currently established that differentiates hypermobility spectrum disorders (HSD) from hypermobile Ehlers–Danlos syndrome (hEDS). Diagnosis is entirely based on clinical parameters with high overlap, leading to frequent misdi...

During development, sexual differentiation results in physiological, anatomical and metabolic differences that implicate not only the gonads but also other body structures. Sex in Leopard geckos is determined by egg incubation temperature. Based on t...

Knowledge regarding the growth of trees is essential to understanding their response to predicted warmer and drier climate scenarios. We used the annual rings of three Mexican pines (Pinus montezumae Lamb., Pinus oocarpa Schiede ex Schltdl., and Pinu...

100% FOREIGN? (100% FREMMED?) is an art project consisting of 250 life stories of individuals who were granted asylum in Denmark between 1956 and 2019. Thus, it can be said to form a collective portrait that inserts citizens of refugee backgrounds in...

Objectives: To characterize the prenatal phenotypic spectrum, genetic findings, and pregnancy outcomes of fetal renal agenesis (RA), and to clarify the complementary roles of chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) and whole exome sequencing (WES) in p...

In the chicken industry, sex determination significantly affects production efficiency and raises ethical concerns in poultry farming. As a key economic species, maximizing the advantages of each sex is vital in modern intensive breeding. Therefore,...
