Rabbit, a domestic species exploited both in animal production and medical research has only recently begun to be included in gene mapping projects, in particular by the French National Institute of Agronomics. By 2002, less than 60 genes had been precisely localised on rabbit chromosomes, which led us to start a large-scale project on gene mapping in rabbit with the publication of 133 gene localisations in 2003 (Chantry-Darmon et al., 2003). Here, we report the localisation of 102 new genes resulting in good coverage of the rabbit genome and an eight-fold enrichment of the gene map. In addition, we have detected a new conserved segment between rabbit chromosome 4q15.3 and part of human chromosome 22 and thus improved the comparative map with the human genome.

External validation of a multivariable prediction model for positive resection margins in breast-conserving surgery.

BMC Res Notes

January 2025

Department of Surgery, Department of Clinical Sciences, Division of Surgery, Skåne University Hospital, Lund University, Lund, Sweden.

Objectives: Positive resection margins after breast-conserving surgery (BCS) most often demands a repeat surgery. To preoperatively identify patients at risk of positive margins, a multivariable model has been developed that predicts positive margins after BCS with a high accuracy. This study aimed to externally validate this prediction model to explore its generalizability and assess if additional preoperatively available variables can further improve its predictive accuracy.

Genome-wide identification of the Sec14 gene family and the response to salt and drought stress in soybean (Glycine max).

BMC Genomics

January 2025

Henan Collaborative Innovation Center of Modern Biological Breeding, College of Agronomy, Henan Institute of Science and Technology, Xinxiang, 453003, China.

Background: The Sec14 domain is an ancient lipid-binding domain that evolved from yeast Sec14p and performs complex lipid-mediated regulatory functions in subcellular organelles and intracellular traffic. The Sec14 family is characterized by a highly conserved Sec14 domain, and is ubiquitously expressed in all eukaryotic cells and has diverse functions. However, the number and characteristics of Sec14 homologous genes in soybean, as well as their potential roles, remain understudied.

Cadmium (Cd) toxicity poses major challenges to rice cultivation, affecting plant growth and development. Wild rice and nanoparticles offer promising strategies to enhance Cd tolerance, yet little is known about their combined effects. This study evaluates the single segment substitution line (SG004) from Oryza glumaepatula (wild rice) and its response to Cd stress compared to cultivated rice (HJX74).

A platform combining automatic segmentation and automatic measurement of the maxillary sinus and adjacent structures.

Clin Oral Investig

January 2025

State Key Laboratory of Oral Diseases & National Center for Stomatology & National Clinical Research Center for Oral Diseases, West China Hospital of Stomatology, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan, 610041, China.

Objectives: To develop a platform including a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) for automatic segmentation of the maxillary sinus (MS) and adjacent structures, and automatic algorithms for measuring 3-dimensional (3D) clinical parameters.

Materials And Methods: 175 CBCTs containing 242 MS were used as the training, validating and testing datasets at the ratio of 7:1:2. The datasets contained healthy MS and MS with mild (2-4 mm), moderate (4-10 mm) and severe (10- mm) mucosal thickening.

Six novel phages belonging to the family were isolated using as a host. Phages MuffinTheCat, Badulia, DesireeRose, Bee17, SCoupsA, and LuzDeMundo were purified from environmental samples by students participating in the Science Education Alliance Phage Hunters Advancing Genomics and Evolutionary Science (SEA-PHAGES) program at Alliance University, New York. The phages have linear dsDNA genomes 15,438-15,636 bp with 112-120 bp inverted terminal repeats.
