Purpose: Carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX) is a well-established prognostic marker in breast cancer (BC). Nevertheless, this prognostic value is yet to be confirmed in BC subtypes. This study aims to investigate the prognostic effects of CAIX in oestrogen receptor (ER)-negative (ER-) BCs and to establish pathways related to cytoplasmic CAIX expression in ER- and lymph node-negative BCs.

The aim of the present study was to quantify the time-course of changes in maximum skin wettedness (ω) - i.e., the proportion of skin surface area covered in sweat at the point of uncompensable heat stress, throughout 7 consecutive days of heat acclimation.

Using hippocampal slices derived from male mice, we have found that single-pulse lateral perforant path (LPP) stimulation produces a two-part CA1 response generated by LPP projections to CA3 ('direct path') and the dentate gyrus ('indirect path'). The latter, indirect path was far more potent in driving CA1 but did so only after a lengthy delay.
