Phytoplankton Assemblage over a 14-Year Period in the Adriatic Sea: Patterns and Trends.

Considering the role of phytoplankton in the functioning and health of marine systems, it is important to characterize its responses to a changing environment. The central Adriatic Sea, as a generally oligotrophic area, is a suitable environment to distinguish between regular fluctuations in phytoplankton and those caused by anthropogenic or climatic influences. This study provides a long-term perspective of phytoplankton assemblage in the central eastern Adriatic Sea, with 14 years of continuous time series data collected at two coastal and two offshore stations.

MyD88 Signaling Accompanied by Microbiota Changes Supports Urinary Bladder Carcinogenesis.

Urinary bladder cancer (BC) inflicts a significant impairment of life quality and poses a high mortality risk. infection can cause BC, and the urinary microbiota of BC patients differs from healthy controls. Importantly, intravesical instillation of the bacterium stands as the foremost therapy for non-muscle invasive BC.
