The Immune Epitope Database (IEDB): 2024 update.

Over the past 20 years, the Immune Epitope Database (IEDB, iedb.org) has established itself as the foremost resource for immune epitope data. The IEDB catalogs published epitopes and their contextual experimental data in a freely searchable public resource.

Characterizing placental pericytes: Hypoxia and proangiogenic signalling.

Introduction: Pericytes wrap microvessels and interact with endothelial cells to regulate vascular growth. Though pericyte dropout has been reported in pathological human placentae and mouse models of placental pathology, there has been limited investigation of the role and function of placental pericytes in vascular health and pathology. This study aimed to investigate the angiogenic potential of human placental pericytes relative to other villous cell populations.

Prognostic analysis and outcomes of metastatic pancreatic cancer patients receiving nab-paclitaxel plus gemcitabine as second or later-line treatment.

Background: Pancreatic cancer (PC) first-line therapy often consists of polychemotherapy regimens, but choosing a second-line therapy after disease progression, especially following first-line FOLFIRINOX, remains a clinical challenge. This study presents results from a large, multicenter, retrospective analysis of Italian patients with metastatic PC (mPC) treated with Nab-paclitaxel/Gemcitabine (AG) as second or later line of treatment. Main objective of the study is to identify prognostic factors that could inform treatment decisions.

Perspectives on tracking data reuse across biodata resources.

Motivation: Data reuse is a common and vital practice in molecular biology and enables the knowledge gathered over recent decades to drive discovery and innovation in the life sciences. Much of this knowledge has been collated into molecular biology databases, such as UniProtKB, and these resources derive enormous value from sharing data among themselves. However, quantifying and documenting this kind of data reuse remains a challenge.
