The Genetic Odyssey of Axolotl Regeneration: Insights and Innovations.

Int J Dev Biol

December 2024

Key Laboratory of Evolution & Marine Biodiversity (Ministry of Education) and Institute of Evolution and Marine Biodiversity, Ocean University of China, Qingdao, China.

The axolotl, a legendary creature with the potential to regenerate complex body parts, is positioned as a powerful model organism due to its extraordinary regenerative capabilities. Axolotl can undergo successful regeneration of multiple structures, providing us with the opportunity to understand the factors that exhibit altered activity between regenerative and non-regenerative animals. This comprehensive review will explore the mysteries of axolotl regeneration, from the initial cellular triggers to the intricate signaling cascades that guide this complex process.

Pediatric hematology/oncology as a subspecialty has made major contributions to the diagnosis and treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia, the most common malignancy in the pediatric population. This impressive progress has yielded complete response rates of 98%, median durations of complete continuous remissions of over 5 years, and long-term leukemia-free survival and probable cure in 80% to 85% of patients. Sixty-five years ago, such data could only be imagined as future goals.

Article Synopsis
  • Interleukin-23 inhibition is a promising treatment for ulcerative colitis, and guselkumab serves as a potent inhibitor targeting this pathway, aiming to assess its safety and effectiveness for patients who have not responded to traditional therapies.
  • The study included two phase 3 trials where adults with moderate to severe active ulcerative colitis were randomly assigned to receive guselkumab or a placebo, with a focus on clinical remission as the main outcome at specific time points.
  • Results showed that a significantly higher number of patients receiving guselkumab achieved clinical remission compared to those on placebo, highlighting its potential as an effective therapy for managing ulcerative colitis.
