AI Article Synopsis
- Rats develop a preference for certain smells linked to protein when they experience a mild shortage of protein in their diet.
- This preference indicates that the rats learn to associate specific odors with the protein they need.
- The phenomenon reflects a specialized appetite that arises to help them meet their nutritional protein requirements.
Article Abstract
Rats are shown to acquire a preference for protein-predictive olfactory cues which depends on a state of mild deficit in protein intake--i.e. a learned protein-specific appetite.

Etiology and Clinical Prediction of Community-Acquired Lower Respiratory Tract Infection in Children.
J Korean Med Sci
January 2025
Department of Pediatrics, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital and Seoul National University College of Medicine, Seongnam, Korea.
Background: Community acquired lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) is a leading cause for hospitalization in children and important cause for antibiotic prescription. We aimed to describe the aetiology of LRTI in children and analyse factors associated with bacterial or viral infection.
Methods: Patients aged < 19 years with a diagnosis of LRTI were identified from the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership Common Data Model Database of Seoul National University Bundang Hospital from January 2005-July 2019, and their clinical characteristics were obtained from the electronic medical records and retrospectively reviewed.
E203K mutation in MAP2K1 (MEK1) causes acquired resistance to PD-1 blockade but responds to trametinib: a case report.
Chin Clin Oncol
December 2024
Colorectal Cancer Center, Sichuan University West China Hospital, Chengdu, China; Department of Medical Oncology, Cancer Center, Sichuan University West China Hospital, Chengdu, China.
Background: Epstein-Barr virus-associated gastric cancer (EBVaGC) is characterized by higher lymphocytic infiltration, which predicts sensitivity to immunotherapy. However, there are few studies investigating the mechanisms of acquired resistance to programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) blockade and its subsequent treatment strategies for EBVaGC.
Case Description: We describe the case of a patient with EBVaGC who was initially treated with first-line chemotherapy plus Sintilimab, a fully humanized anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody, resulting in a near-complete response.
Targeting deubiquitinase USP7-mediated stabilization of XPO1 contributes to the anti-myeloma effects of selinexor.

Department of Hematology, Ren Ji Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, Shanghai, 200127, China.
Background: Targeting exportin1 (XPO1) with Selinexor (SEL) is a promising therapeutic strategy for patients with multiple myeloma (MM). However, intrinsic and acquired drug resistance constitute great challenges. SEL has been reported to promote the degradation of XPO1 protein in tumor cells.

January 2025
State Key Laboratory of Oncology in South China, Guangdong Provincial Clinical Research Center for Cancer, Sun Yat-Sen University Cancer Center, No.651 Dongfeng East Road, Guangzhou, 510060, People's Republic of China.
Background: HER2-targeted antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have revolutionized the treatment landscape of metastatic breast cancer. However, the efficacy of these therapies may be compromised by genomic alterations. Hence, this study aims to identify factors predicting sensitivity to HER2 ADC in metastatic breast cancer.

Ann Clin Microbiol Antimicrob
January 2025
Department of Microbiology, Medical College, Yangzhou University, Yangzhou, 225001, China.
Background: Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) is recognized as a common clinical conditional pathogen with bla gene-mediated multidrug-resistance that is a significant threat to public health safety. Timely and effective infection control measures are needed to prevent their spread.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of CRAB patients at three teaching hospitals from 2019 to 2022.
