Background And Aim: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease that primarily involves synovial joints. During the past decade, disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs and biologic agents have been introduced for the treatment of RA. However, they have limitations, including incomplete treatment response, adverse effects requiring drug withdrawal, fall off in efficacy over time, high cost of biologic agents, and refractory cases.

Punctuational evolution is pervasive in distal site metastatic colonization.

Cancer Ecology Center, The Brady Urological Institute, Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21287, USA.

The evolution of metastasis, the spread of cancer to distal sites within the body, represents a lethal stage of cancer progression. Yet, the evolutionary dynamics that shape the emergence of metastatic disease remain unresolved. Here, using single-cell lineage tracing data in combination with phylogenetic statistical methods, we show that the evolutionary trajectory of metastatic disease is littered with bursts of rapid molecular change as new cellular subpopulations appear, a pattern known as punctuational evolution.

Dealing with infections is a daily challenge for wild animals. Empirical data show an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) production during immune response. This could have consequences on telomere length, the end parts of linear chromosomes, commonly used as proxy for good health and ageing.
