Blood-based DNA methylation markers for lung cancer prediction.

BMJ Oncol

May 2024

Genomic Epidemiology Branch, International Agency for Research on Cancer, Lyon, France.

Objective: Screening high-risk individuals with low-dose CT reduces mortality from lung cancer, but many lung cancers occur in individuals who are not eligible for screening. Risk biomarkers may be useful to refine risk models and improve screening eligibility criteria. We evaluated if blood-based DNA methylation markers can improve a traditional lung cancer prediction model.

Energetic constraints drive the decline of a sentinel polar bear population.

Science

January 2025

Laboratory of Quantitative Global Change Ecology, Department of Biological Sciences, University of Toronto Scarborough, Toronto, ON, Canada.

Human-driven Arctic warming and resulting sea ice loss have been associated with declines in several polar bear populations. However, quantifying how individual responses to environmental change integrate and scale to influence population dynamics in polar bears has yet to be achieved. We developed an individual-based bioenergetic model and hindcast population dynamics across 42 years of observed sea ice conditions in Western Hudson Bay, a region undergoing rapid environmental change.

Article Synopsis
  • A new species of Pleosporales fungus was isolated from driftwood and cultivated to explore potential new secondary metabolites.
  • The study identified eight new compounds called ophiobolin-type sesterterpenes, known as bipolarolides H-O, using a combination of HPLC-MS and spectroscopic methods.
  • Three of these bipolarolides demonstrated inhibitory activity against certain organisms, with MIC values indicating their potency.

Association Between GABRG2 and Self-Rating of the Effects of Alcohol in a French Young Adult Sample.

Risk Manag Healthc Policy

January 2025

Université Paris Cité, Inserm U1266, Institut de Psychiatrie et Neurosciences de Paris (IPNP), Team Vulnerability of Psychiatric and Addictive Disorders, Paris, France.

Purpose: Alcohol use is a leading risk factor for preventable death, injury, and disease globally. Low sensitivity to the effects of alcohol is influenced by genes and predicts risk for harmful alcohol use and alcohol use disorder (AUD). Alcohol induces effects partly by modulation of gamma-aminobutyric acid receptors type A (GABARs).

As a key life-history trait, growth rates are often used to measure individual performance and to inform parameters in demographic models. Furthermore, intraspecific trait variation generates diversity in nature. Therefore, partitioning out and understanding drivers of spatiotemporal variation in growth rate is of fundamental interest in ecology and evolution.
