Background: Marek's disease (MD) is a pathology affecting chickens caused by Marek's disease virus (MDV), an acute transforming alphaherpesvirus of the genus . MD is characterized by paralysis, immune suppression, and the rapid formation of T-cell (primarily CD4+) lymphomas. Over the last 50 years, losses due to MDV infection have been controlled worldwide through vaccination; however, these live-attenuated vaccines are non-sterilizing and potentially contributed to the virulence evolution of MDV field strains.

Liver metastases from Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers present significant challenges in oncology, often signaling poor prognosis. Traditional detection methods like imaging and tissue biopsies have limitations in sensitivity, specificity, and tumor heterogeneity represen-tation. The advent of artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare, driven by advancements in ma-chine learning, algorithms, and data science, offers a promising frontier for early detection and management of liver metastases.

The intertwined nature of cardiac and renal failure, where dysfunction in one organ predicts a poor outcome in the other, has long driven the interest in uncovering the exact molecular links between the two. Elucidating the mechanisms driving Cardiorenal Syndrome (CRS) will enable the development of targeted therapies that disrupt this detrimental cycle, potentially improving outcomes for patients. A recent study by Chatterjee .

The pathophysiology of rotator cuff disease is complex, involving intrinsic and extrinsic factors that contribute to mechanical alterations, inflammation, apoptosis, and neovascularization. These changes result in structural and cellular disruptions, including inflammatory cell infiltration and collagen disorganization. Macrophages recently have gained attention as critical mediators of tissue repair and regeneration.

Transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) is abundantly present in the tumor microenvironment, contributing to cancer progression. However, the regulatory mechanism by which TGF-β affects vascular endothelial cells (ECs) in the tumor microenvironment is not well understood. Herein, we generated tamoxifen-inducible TGF-β type II receptor () knockout mice, specifically targeting ECs (TβRII), by crossbreeding TβRII-floxed mice with Pdgfb-icreER mice.
