The marine diatom genus comprises cosmopolitan phytoplankton species commonly present in the Adriatic Sea. Species within the genus have been of significant concern because they produce domoic acid (DA), which can cause amnesic shellfish poisoning (ASP). In this study, we identified species along the Central and Southeastern Adriatic Sea, where monthly sampling carried out from February 2022 to February 2024 allowed for comprehensive species documentation.

Colistin-resistant (COLR-Ab) is an opportunistic pathogen commonly associated with nosocomial infections, and it is difficult to treat with current antibiotics. Therefore, new antimicrobial agents need to be developed for treatment. Based on this information, we investigated the antimicrobial, antibiofilm, and combination activities of -coumaric acid (-CA), ferulic acid (FA), and -methoxycinnamic acid (-MCA) against five COLR-Ab isolates.

: Alternative splicing is essential for the physiological and pathological development of the inner ear. Disruptions in this process can result in both syndromic and non-syndromic forms of hearing loss. DHX38, a DEAH box RNA helicase, is integral to pre-mRNA splicing regulation and plays critical roles in development, cell differentiation, and stem cell maintenance.

Changes in epigenetic processes such as histone acetylation are proposed as key events influencing cancer cell function and the initiation and progression of pediatric brain tumors. Valproic acid (VPA) is an antiepileptic drug that acts partially by inhibiting histone deacetylases (HDACs) and could be repurposed as an epigenetic anticancer therapy. Here, we show that VPA reduced medulloblastoma (MB) cell viability and led to cell cycle arrest.

Potatoes are a critical staple crop worldwide, yet their yield is significantly constrained by salt stress. Understanding and enhancing salt tolerance in potatoes is crucial for ensuring food security. This study evaluated the salt tolerance of 17 diverse potato varieties using principal component analysis, membership function analysis, cluster analysis, and stepwise regression analysis.
