Gut-associated lymphoid tissues (GALT) represent major sites of adaptive immune priming in the intestine, yet our understanding of human GALT diversity and function remains limited. Here, we used single-cell RNA sequencing, flow cytometry, and confocal laser microscopy to map the fibroblast (FB) landscape of human GALT, including that of Peyer's patches (PP), mucosal isolated lymphoid follicles (M
High-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) is the most prevalent and aggressive subtype of ovarian cancer. The combination of late-stage diagnosis and the tendency to exhibit resistance to existing treatments highlights a critical gap in effective therapeutic options. There is thus a need for novel strategies for targeting HGSOC, particularly in its advanced stages. To address this gap, we developed
INTRODUCTION: Positron emission tomography (PET) imaging with ligands for synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2A (SV2A) has emerged as a promising methodology for measuring synaptic density in Alzheimer's disease (AD). We investigated associations between SV2A concentrations in the brain and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). METHODS: Twenty-one participants with early AD and 7 cognitively normal (CN) individua
The rapid growth of smart logistics, driven by IoT devices and data-intensive applications, necessitates secure, scalable, and efficient computing frameworks. As the edge-fog-cloud (EFC) paradigm supports real-time data processing, it faces significant security threats and attacks, including privacy risks, data breaches, and unauthorized access. To address these security threats and attacks, block
We report 23 lichenicolous fungi new to Sweden, among these, one is new to Europe, 21 are new to Fennoscandia, and two are newly reported for Norway. This article focuses only on mitosporic fungi. The newly reported species are Acremonium pertusariae, Cladophialophora dimorphospora, Cladosporium licheniphilum, Corynespora laevistipitata, Didymocyrtis cladoniicola, D. grumantiana, Ellisembia lichen
BACKGROUND: Changes in Ischemic White matter hyperintensities volume (WMH) on MRI over time are associated with cognitive decline. We investigated whether changes in WMH volume over time exhibit WMH-normalized volume threshold effects on declining cognitive performance and whether these effects on cognition differ between deep white matter hyperintensities (DWMH) and periventricular white matter h
To address climate change, firms are increasingly forming sustainability alliances. Pursuing sustainability via such alliances is challenging as it means working with multifaceted and not necessarily compatible goals. Moreover, it often requires collaboration among heterogeneous partners outside traditional industrial contexts as well as dealing with wicked problems. This article presents a multip
Objective. In patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) initiating secukinumab (SEC), we aimed to identify baseline (treatment start) predictors of achieving low disease activity (LDA) after 6 months, as measured by the Axial Spondyloarthritis Disease Activity Score using C-reactive protein (ASDAS-CRP) and Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), as well as treatment contin
Background: Parkinson's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder. Awareness and the evidence supporting the merits of palliative care (PC) approaches to people with Parkinson's disease (PwP) are increasing. Objective: This review aimed to address four key questions related to PC for PwPs and their caregivers: i) What are the indicators for timely access to PC? ii) When should PC be intr
Regulation of intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) remains poorly understood. Aquaporin 3 (AQP3) facilitates the membrane transport of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), a key ROS signaling molecule. Here we elucidate the molecular mechanism of AQP3 and show that its regulatory properties are both pH dependent and autoregulated by H2O2. Using single particle cryo-electron microscopy, we pr
Relapse and treatment resistance are common in children with high-risk neuroblastoma, and novel therapies are needed. Conventional drug discovery is slow, expensive, often fails in practice, and consequently falls short in addressing pediatric and rare conditions. In such instances, drug repurposing is a promising strategy. Here, we used two independent in silico prediction tools including machine
This essay demonstrates that the origin of modern Russian national conservatism lies in the Soviet underground anti-communist and anti-liberal movement, which developed under the strong influence of the theorists of integral traditionalism, fascism, and the Nouvelle Droite. Vladimir Putin's political ontology, based on the idea of the tragedy of Russia and Europe caused by the weakening of their s
Accurate diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia (FTD) with right anterior temporal lobe (RATL) predominance remains challenging due to lack of clinical characterization, and standardized terminology. The recent research of the International Working Group (IWG) identified common symptoms but also unveiled broad terminologies lacking precision and operationalization, with risk of misdiagnoses, inappro
This experimental study explored how adopting a deceptive stance affects linguistic processes during real-time production of multi-sentence texts in speaking and writing. Language production involves planning, monitoring and editing – processes that give rise to and are shaped by fluctuations in processing demands. Deception is assumed to influence these processes as speakers and writers manage co
