Comparative genetic mapping and a consensus interspecific genetic map reveal strong synteny and collinearity within the genus.

Introduction: Useful germplasm for citrus breeding includes all sexually compatible species of the former genera , and , now merged in the single genus. An improved knowledge on the synteny/collinearity between the genome of these different species, and on their recombination landscapes, is essential to optimize interspecific breeding schemes.

Method: We have performed a large comparative genetic mapping study including several main clades of the genus.

An antihypertensive move: technology to mediate teaching practices with health students about medications.

Objective: To verify evidence of validity of the board game "An antihypertensive move" produced to mediate teaching practices with students on health courses about diuretic and antihypertensive medications.

Method: this is a methodological and development study in compliance with the SQUIRE-EDU guidelines. 20 experts participated.

Antiviral and immunomodulatory effects of ouabain against congenital Zika syndrome model.

Zika virus (ZIKV) is an arbovirus associated with neurological disorders accompanying congenital infections. With no vaccine or antiviral approved, there is an urgent need for the development of effective antiviral agents against ZIKV infection. We evaluated the anti-ZIKV and immunomodulatory activity of ouabain, a Na/K-ATPase inhibitor known to have immunomodulatory and antiviral activities, using human neural stem and progenitor cells (hNS/PCs) and a murine model of congenital Zika syndrome (CZS).

Interplay between reactive oxygen species and ERK activation in cervical cancer cells.

Introduction: Among the types of cancer affecting women, cervical cancer (CC) is a public health problem with high global incidence and mortality rates. It is currently classified into three main histological types: squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), adenocarcinoma (AC), and adenosquamous (ASC) carcinoma. All of them lack a targeted therapy.
