Lysosomes are dynamic organelles integral to cellular homeostasis, secretory pathways, immune responses, and cell death regulation. In cancers, lysosomes become dysregulated to sustain proliferative signaling, metabolism, and invasion. In hematological malignancies such as acute myeloid leukemia (AML), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), leukemia cells demonstrate lysosome dysregulation with increased lysosomal activity, mTORC1 signaling, catabolic reactions, and autophagy.

Methods: A systematic review was conducted whereby four databases (MEDLINE, Embase, Cumulative Index in Nursing and Allied Health Literature, and Education Resources Information Centre) were searched on 11 October 2023 with terms related to dietetics, students, and assessment. The search was repeated on 8 January 2025 to identify new publications.
Piscine francisellosis is a highly infectious and economically significant disease caused by Francisella orientalis in tilapia (Oreochromis spp.). There are currently no approved treatments or commercial vaccines for this disease in cultured fish.

A new methodology that exploits the properties of clusters of hits reconstructed in the innermost silicon detector layers is introduced to study highly ionizing particles in heavy-ion data.

Scientists around the globe rapidly responded to try and discover novel therapeutics and repurpose extant drugs to treat the disease. This work describes the preclinical discovery efforts that led to the invention of PF-07321332 (nirmatrelvir, ), a potent and orally active inhibitor of the SARS CoV-2 main protease (M) enzyme.
