From a conservation perspective, it is important to identify when sub-lethal temperatures begin to adversely impact an organism. However, it is unclear whether, during acute exposures, sub-lethal cellular thresholds occur at similar temperatures to other physiological or behavioural changes, or at temperatures associated with common physiological endpoints measured in fishes to estimate thermal tolerance. To test this, we estimated temperature preference (15.

Introduction: Sodium nitrite is a potent oxidizer, which may precipitate rapidly lethal methemoglobinemia. Prompt diagnosis and treatment may salvage otherwise fatal cases. It is unclear if emergency departments are prepared for increasing cases.

Unlabelled: Platelet factor 4 (PF4) has been shown to regulate several viral infections. Our previous study demonstrated that PF4 inhibits the entry of enterovirus A 71 (EV71) and coxsackievirus A16 (CA16), which cause hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD). In this study, we report that PF4 also inhibits the circulating HFMD pathogen coxsackievirus A6 (CA6) and the re-emerging enterovirus D68 (EVD68).

Among cardiovascular diseases, thrombotic diseases such as ischemic heart disease and acute ischemic strokes are the most lethal, responsible by themselves for a quarter of worldwide deaths. While surgical treatments exist, they may not be used in all situations, and systemic thrombolytic drug injection, such as recombinant tissue plasminogen activators (rtPA), often remains necessary, despite serious limitations including short therapeutic window, severe side effects, and failure to address the complex nature of thrombi. This prompted intense research into alternative thrombolytics or delivery methods, including nanomedicine.

Gammaherpesviruses are oncogenic pathogens that establish lifelong infections. There are no FDA-approved vaccines against Epstein-Barr virus or Kaposi sarcoma herpesvirus. Murine gammaherpesvirus-68 (MHV68) infection of mice provides a system for investigating gammaherpesvirus pathogenesis and testing vaccine strategies.
