Article Synopsis
- Entamoeba histolytica is a protozoan parasite that causes amoebiasis, a major global health issue, with complex mechanisms of virulence including endocytic processes and motility.
- Two kinases from the AGCK family, EhAGCK1 and EhAGCK2, have been studied, revealing that EhAGCK1 is specifically involved in trogocytosis while EhAGCK2 is engaged in all actin-dependent endocytic processes.
- The research highlights the distinct biochemical properties of these kinases, including their ion dependency and substrate specificity, and emphasizes their unique roles in related endocytic processes such as trogocytosis and phagocytosis.
Advances in the spatiotemporal resolution and field-of-view of neuroimaging tools are driving mesoscale studies for translational neuroscience. On October 10, 2023, the Center for Mesoscale Mapping (CMM) at the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Health Sciences Technology based Neuroimaging Training Program (NTP) hosted a symposium exploring the state-of-the-art in this rapidly growing area of research.

- - Weeds are valuable for research because they affect agriculture and can quickly adapt to changes caused by human activities.
- - A shortage of genomic data limits the understanding of how weeds rapidly adapt, especially regarding traits like resistance to herbicides and stress tolerance.
- - The International Weed Genomics Consortium aims to create genomic resources that enhance weed control research and support crop breeding by providing insights into adaptation and stress tolerance.
