The cerebral cortex is critical for advanced cognitive functions and relies on a vast network of neurons to carry out its highly intricate neural tasks. Generating cortical neurons in accurate numbers hinges on cell signaling orchestrated by primary cilia to coordinate the proliferation and differentiation of cortical stem cells. While recent research has shed light on multiple ciliary roles in corticogenesis, specific mechanisms downstream of cilia signaling remain largely unexplored.

Unlabelled: Vaccination has been considered the most crucial defence against viral infections, including SARS-CoV-2. Numerous reports have demonstrated the effectiveness of the above vaccines in oncological patients. It has also been proven that, apart from vaccinations and oncological therapy, the course of the cancer process itself influences the magnitude of the humoral response, especially in people after infection with SARS-CoV-2.

Rahnella aquatilis causes seafoods to spoil by metabolizing sulfur-containing amino acids and/or proteins, producing HS in products. The type II secretion system (T2SS) regulates the transport of proteases from the cytoplasm to the surrounding environment and promotes bacterial growth at low temperatures. To prevent premature fish spoilage, new solutions for inhibiting the T2SS of bacteria should be researched.

Article Synopsis
  • Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) affects 5-12% of the population, with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP) presenting the greatest challenges, prompting research into genetic factors that influence severity and treatment options.
  • Genetic variants called single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were shown to impact the function of the respiratory ciliated epithelium, with two common haplotypes identified: the protective PAV and the non-protective AVI, where PAV/PAV individuals exhibit lower disease severity compared to those with AVI/AVI.
  • A study of 544 participants found that the AVI haplotype was more prevalent in CRSwNP patients, correlating with severe symptoms and reduced quality of life, while
