We have investigated the role of 3',5'-cyclic-adenosine-monophosphate (cAMP) in mediating the coupling between energy metabolism and cell cycle progression in both synchronous cultures and oscillating continuous cultures of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. For the first time, a peak in intracellular cAMP was shown to precede the observed breakdown of trehalose and glycogen during cell cycle-related oscillations. Measurements in synchronous cultures demonstrated that this peak can be associated with the cell cycle dynamics of cAMP under conditions of glucose-limited growth, which was found to differ significantly from that observed in synchronous glucose-repressed cultures. Our results support the notion that cAMP plays a major role in mediating the integration of energy metabolism and cell cycle progression, both in the single cell and during cell cycle-related oscillations in continuous culture, respectively. Evidence is presented that the dynamic behaviour of intracellular cAMP during the cell cycle is modulated depending on nutrient supply. The implications of these findings regarding the role of cAMP in regulating cell cycle progression and energy metabolism are discussed.

Background: Boswellic acid (BA) is a bioactive compound derived from Boswellia trees. This study aims to investigate the anti-cancer properties of BA against KB oral squamous cancer cells and elucidate the underlying mechanisms.
Methods: Escalating doses of BA were administered to KB cells, and various analyses were conducted using bioinformatic tools such as GEO, GEO2R, and STITCH database.

Aim: This study aimed to identify the genes associated with the development of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and potential therapeutic targets.
Methods: Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified by self-transcriptome sequencing of tumor tissues and paracancerous tissues resected during surgery and combined with The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) data to screen for the genes associated with LUAD prognosis. The expression was validated at mRNA and protein levels, and the gene knockdown was used to examine the impact and underlying mechanisms on lung cancer cells.
Evolution of long scalp hair in humans.

The ability to grow long scalp hair is a distinct human characteristic. It probably originally evolved to aid in cooling the sun-exposed head, although the genetic determinants of long hair are largely unknown. Despite ancestral variations in hair growth, long scalp hair is common to all extant human populations, which suggests its emergence before or concurrently with the emergence of anatomically modern humans (AMHs), approximately 300 000 years ago.

This was hypothesized to depend on their prolonged presence in the vasculature, leading to cytotoxicity. Imaging of NETs (histones, neutrophil elastase, extracellular DNA) with intravital microscopy in blood vessels of mouse livers in a pathogen-replicative-free environment (endotoxemia) led to detection of NET proteins attached to the endothelium for months despite the early disappearance of extracellular DNA.

Human papillomaviruses (HPV) from the genus beta have been implicated in the development of cutaneous squamous cell cancer in and organ transplant patients. In contrast to alpha-high-risk HPV, which cause ano-genital and oropharyngeal cancers, beta-HPV replication is not well understood. The beta-HPV49 transcriptome was analyzed by RNA sequencing using stable keratinocyte cell lines maintaining high levels of extrachromosomally replicating E8- genomes, which can be established due to a lack of the viral E8^E2 repressor protein.
