Hirayama disease, also known as non-progressive juvenile spinal muscular atrophy of the upper limbs, brachial monomelic amyotrophy, or benign focal atrophy, affects the C7 D1 myotomes; an electromyogram (EMG) shows neurogenic damage in the C7-C8-T1 territories. It causes weakness and amyotrophy of the distal upper limb. Although it usually occurs on one side only, bilateral symmetric cases of Hirayama disease have occasionally been described.

Background: Calmodulin-binding transcription activator (CAMTA) proteins play significant roles in signal transduction, growth and development, as well as abiotic stress responses, in plants. Understanding their involvement in the low-temperature stress response of teak is vital for revealing cold resistance mechanisms.
Results: Through bioinformatics analysis, the CAMTA gene family in teak was examined, and six CAMTA genes were identified in teak.

Transdermal drug delivery (TDD) represents a transformative paradigm in drug administration, offering advantages such as controlled drug release, enhanced patient adherence, and circumvention of hepatic first-pass metabolism. Despite these benefits, the inherent barrier function of the skin, primarily attributed to the stratum corneum, remains a significant impediment to the efficient permeation of therapeutic agents. Recent advancements have focused on macromolecular-assisted permeation enhancers, including carbohydrates, lipids, amino acids, nucleic acids, and cell-penetrating peptides, which modulate skin permeability by transiently altering its structural integrity.

Human tumors are diverse in their natural history and response to treatment, which in part results from genetic and transcriptomic heterogeneity. In clinical practice, single-site needle biopsies are used to sample this diversity, but cancer biomarkers may be confounded by spatiogenomic heterogeneity within individual tumors. Here we investigate clonally expressed genes as a solution to the sampling bias problem by analyzing multiregion whole-exome and RNA sequencing data for 450 tumor regions from 184 patients with lung adenocarcinoma in the TRACERx study.
