Aggressive interactions between males are common when victors gain increased mating success but can result in severe injury or death for the defeated. (Hymenoptera: Eupelmidae) is a solitary egg parasitoid of hemipteran and lepidopteran species. Here, we investigated lethal interactions between males and analyzed aggression behavior scaled with the male condition, number of competitors, number of presented females, and female mating status.

- Ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel) CAR-T therapy was approved in 2022 for treating patients with multiple myeloma who have not responded to other treatments.
- Out of 255 patients, 236 received the therapy, and many of them didn't qualify for earlier trials, but the results were still positive.
- Most patients experienced some side effects, but many showed good responses to the treatment, with a significant percentage remaining cancer-free after one year.
Citrus pectin (CP) is a dietary fiber used in animal nutrition with anti-inflammatory properties. CP downregulates chicken immunoregulatory monocytes' functions, like chemotaxis and phagocytosis, in vitro. The molecular underlying background is still unknown.
