Modeling with uncertainty quantification reveals the essentials of a non-canonical algal carbon-concentrating mechanism.

The thermoacidophilic red alga Cyanidioschyzon merolae survives its challenging environment likely in part by operating a carbon-concentrating mechanism (CCM). Here, we demonstrated that C. merolae's cellular affinity for CO2 is stronger than the affinity of its rubisco for CO2.

Patients' and Clinicians' Experiences Using a Real-Time Remote Monitoring System for Chemotherapy Symptom Management (ASyMS): Qualitative Study.

Background: Patients receiving chemotherapy require ongoing symptom monitoring and management to optimize their outcomes. In recent years, digital remote monitoring interventions have emerged to provide enhanced cancer care delivery experiences to patients and clinicians. However, patient and clinician experiential evaluations of these technologies are rare.

Radiometric determination of rubisco activation state and quantity in leaves.

Rubisco is the key enzyme in photosynthesis, catalyzing fixation of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into energy storage molecules. Several inefficiencies in Rubisco limit the rate of photosynthesis, and, therefore, the growth of the plant. Rubisco is sensitive to light, making deactivation of the enzyme upon sampling likely.

ORIC-101, a Glucocorticoid Receptor Antagonist, in Combination with Nab-Paclitaxel in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors.

Purpose: In preclinical models, glucocorticoid receptor (GR) signaling drives resistance to taxane chemotherapy in multiple solid tumors via upregulation of antiapoptotic pathways. ORIC-101 is a potent and selective GR antagonist that was investigated in combination with taxane chemotherapy as an anticancer regimen preclinically and in a phase 1 clinical trial.

Patients And Methods: The ability of ORIC-101 to reverse taxane resistance was assessed in cell lines and xenograft models, and a phase 1 study (NCT03928314) was conducted in patients with advanced solid tumors to determine the dose, safety, and antitumor activity of ORIC-101 with nab-paclitaxel.

Safety of silver dressings in infants; a systematic scoping review.

Silver-based dressings are used to reduce infection risk and optimise conditions for wound healing. They are widely used in the management of burns and other complex wounds. However, reports of elevated serum silver and concern over systemic toxicity, has meant that their use in young children has been questioned.
