Antiangiogenic treatment targeting the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) pathway is a powerful tool to combat tumor growth and progression; however, drug resistance frequently emerges. We identify CD5L (CD5 antigen-like precursor) as an important gene upregulated in response to antiangiogenic therapy leading to the emergence of adaptive resistance. By using both an RNA-aptamer and a monoclonal antibody targeting CD5L, we are able to abate the pro-angiogenic effects of CD5L overexpression in both in vitro and in vivo settings. In addition, we find that increased expression of vascular CD5L in cancer patients is associated with bevacizumab resistance and worse overall survival. These findings implicate CD5L as an important factor in adaptive resistance to antiangiogenic therapy and suggest that modalities to target CD5L have potentially important clinical utility.

Host plants and various fungicides inhibit plant pathogens by inducing the release of excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) and causing DNA damage, either directly or indirectly leading to cell death. The mechanisms by which the oomycete manages ROS stress resulting from plant immune responses and fungicides remains unclear. This study elucidates the role of histone acetylation in ROS-induced DNA damage responses (DDR) to adapt to stress.

The process of regional economic development is marked by a sustained exposure to external disturbances. In today's unpredictable and tumultuous global environment, such disturbances have become increasingly common, underlining the need to advance a region's economic resilience and foster adaptive mechanisms to handle environmental flux. Comparing the typical provinces in eastern, central, western and northeastern regions during the COVID-19 epidemic period, it found that the economic resilience performance of Henan Province, which is a representative of the central region, has the following characteristics.

This study explores the integration of sexual and reproductive health (SRH) education in Sri Lanka, utilizing the Health Belief Model (HBM) to predict the perceived quality of SRH education among non-state undergraduate students. In many Asian countries, including Sri Lanka, cultural resistance and skepticism often challenge SRH education initiatives. The research is based on a questionnaire survey, examining factors influencing the perceived quality of SRH education, such as cultural norms, embarrassment, attitudes, awareness, and institutional support.

The escalating detections of hypervirulent and antibiotic-resistant isolates are giving rise to growing public concerns. Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are spherical vesicles containing bioactive substances including lipopolysaccharides, peptidoglycans, periplasmic and cytoplasmic proteins, and nucleic acids.
