Imaging findings of type I neurofibromatosis with outcome of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor in the right lower extremity.

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by mutations of the NF1 tumor suppressor gene, characterized by café-au-lait spots, neurofibromas, and Lisch nodules. Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST) is an extremely rare malignancy with neural differentiation potential. The lifetime risk of developing MPNST in NF-1 patients is 8%-13%.

Ultrasound manifestations of primary intestinal non-Hodgkin lymphoma with liver metastasis in a child.

Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is a highly aggressive malignant tumor arising in lymph nodes or extra-nodal lymphoid tissues, with an incidence of 8.3 per million. It accounts for approximately 7% of childhood and adolescent malignancies, second only to leukemia and brain tumors.

Structure Identification of Spore Polysaccharides and Their Antitumor Activity In Vivo.

spore powder, valued for its nutritional and medicinal properties, contains polysaccharides crucial for its efficacy. However, the complex structural nature of these polysaccharides necessitates further investigation to fully realize their potential. This study aimed to investigate the effects of acid heat treatment on spore polysaccharides (GLSPs) to enhance their properties and application in antitumor activity.

Effects of transgenerational photoperiod experience on the reproduction and development of , an egg parasitoid of the spotted lanternfly.

Transgenerational experience can affect a range of natural enemies' life-history traits and can be involved in the control of developmental plasticity. As a major egg parasitoid of the spotted lanternfly, (Hemiptera: Fulgoridae), the wasp (Hymenoptera: Eupelmidae) is effective at suppressing its host populations. The reproductive and developmental traits of is known to depend on photoperiod conditions, but transgenerational photoperiodic effects have yet to be evaluated.

Assessing the host range of , an egg parasitoid of spotted lanternfly ( using Eastern U.S. non-target species.

The spotted lanternfly, (Hemiptera: Fulgoridae), an invasive planthopper discovered in Pennsylvania, U.S. in 2014, has spread to many surrounding states despite quarantines and control efforts, and further spread is anticipated.

CRF regulates pain sensation by enhancement of corticoaccumbal excitatory synaptic transmission.

Both peripheral and central corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) systems have been implicated in regulating pain sensation. However, compared with the peripheral, the mechanisms underlying central CRF system in pain modulation have not yet been elucidated, especially at the neural circuit level. The corticoaccumbal circuit, a structure rich in CRF receptors and CRF-positive neurons, plays an important role in behavioral responses to stressors including nociceptive stimuli.

Effect of glutathione-transport-related gene on desiccation tolerance of and its related regulatory mechanism.

The outstanding desiccation tolerance of () enables long-term persistence in food products with low-water activity to increase the infection risk, especially in low-birth-weight, immuno-compromised neonates, and infants less than 4 weeks of age. In our previous study, the disruption of glutathione transport-related gene by transposon was found to significantly increase its inactivation rate under drying stress challenges. However, the mechanism underlying the association between glutathione transport and desiccation tolerance of remains to be clarified.

Imaging of pulmonary artery sling: Prenatal and postnatal imaging findings.

During the fetal period, the pulmonary artery bifurcation revealed the absence of the left pulmonary artery. Instead, an anomalous artery originated from the right pulmonary artery, coursing posteriorly the trachea to the left lung. The diagnosis of PAS was established following prenatal ultrasound screening, which was subsequently confirmed by postnatal echocardiography and CT after delivery.
