The goal of our study was to explore the association of the polymorphisms in the JAK/STAT pathway among Moroccan COVID-19 patients, using a case-control approach. Next-generation sequencing was employed to investigate the IFNAR1, IFNAR2, JAK1, TYK2, STAT2, and IRF9 genes within the JAK/STAT pathway. We also performed an in silico study to examine the rare variants in this pathway.

The study aims to evaluate the behavioral and insecticidal effects of Ruta angustifolia EO (RAEO) against larvae and adults of a major pest insect, Tribolium castaneum. RAEO exhibited a strong repellency against both adults and larvae where percentages as high as 74 and 72 % of PR (Percentage of Repellency) were recorded respectively, at 0.47 μL/cm after 2 h.

Article Synopsis
  • This study analyzed genetic changes in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients from Morocco and compared them to data from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA).
  • Out of 76 tissue samples analyzed, 70 had genetic alterations, with 234 changes identified across 18 genes that could influence targeted therapy decisions.
  • Significant differences were found in the prevalence of certain mutations between Moroccan patients and TCGA data, reinforcing the importance of next-generation sequencing for effective diagnosis and treatment planning in NSCLC.

Microalgae are gaining attention as they are considered green fabrics able to synthesize many bioactive metabolites, with unique biological activities. However, their use at an industrial scale is still a challenge because of the high costs related to upstream and downstream processes. Here, a biorefinery approach was proposed, starting from the biomass of the green microalga Pseudococcomyxa simplex for the extraction of two classes of molecules with a potential use in the cosmetic industry.
