Being raised under adverse conditions during infancy and childhood represents a significant risk factor for developing later psychopathologies and dysfunctions in emotional, affective, and cognitive abilities. Depending on the type, timing, and duration of early adversity, different consequences emerge across the sexes in both human and animal models, although our understanding of the underlying interactions between sex and early life stress (ELS) is still incomplete. In this study, we used the limited bedding (LB) paradigm, a well-described model of ELS in rat pups during the first 10 days of life, and tested whether masculinization of the female brain by neonatal injections of estradiol benzoate (EB) would recapitulate the ELS-induced vulnerability phenotype of males on morphology of the basolateral amygdala (BLA) principal neurons and pre-adolescent and adult behavior.

BRASH, an acronym for Bradycardia, Renal failure, AV nodal blockers, Shock, and Hyperkalemia, syndrome is a clinical synergic phenomenon that can result in cardiovascular collapse. We present the case of an 83-year-old woman with dilated cardiomyopathy, heart failure, and chronic kidney disease who was admitted to the emergency room due to syncope and a worsening general condition. The patient was on several medications, including carvedilol, a beta-blocker.

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is one of the most common multi-resistant organisms found in hospital-acquired infections and is associated with high morbidity and mortality. The development of new drugs and promising therapeutic strategies against MRSA is thus an urgent request. In recent years, some natural products have been demonstrated to show great potential in improving the efficacy of antibiotics to treat various drug-resistant bacteria, particularly MRSA.

In the hemipteran Rhodnius prolixus, successful post-prandial diuresis is accomplished through the synergistic actions of the peptidergic diuretic hormone RhoprCRF/DH and the biogenic amine 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), and by an antidiuretic hormone RhoprCAPA-2 that terminates diuresis by inhibiting this synergy. Lateral neurosecretory cells (NSCs) in the mesothoracic ganglionic mass release RhoprCRF/DH, while midline NSCs release RhoprCAPA-2 during blood feeding. These NSCs co-express GPA2/GPB5, a conserved glycoprotein hormone involved in various physiological processes across bilaterians.
