Localization of nucleoli-forming (NF) areas in chromosomes of continuous cell cultures of African green monkey kidney Vero, CV-1, GMK, BGM, BS-C-1. Macaca rhesus kidney LLC-MK2, dog kidney MDCK, pig kidney SPEV, PK-15 was studied. The NF-areas in chromosomes of African green monkey, M. rhesus, and pig cell cultures were shown to be localized in sites of secondary chromosomal stangulation, and there was also a definite correlation between the intensity of staining of NF-areas and sizes of the zone of secondary strangulation. In chromosomes of MDCK cell line, NF-areas are located in telomere ends of six-nine chromosomes, and association of two chromosomes by NF-areas was observed. The possibility of using the method of identification of nucleoi-forming areas for the evaluation of productivity of continuous cell cultures is discussed.

Therapeutic hurdles persist in the fight against lung cancer, although it is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Results are still not up to par, even with the best efforts of conventional medicine, thus new avenues of investigation are required. Examining how immunotherapy, precision medicine, and AI are being used to manage lung cancer, this review shows how these tools can change the game for patients and increase their chances of survival.

Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) is increasingly thought to be a multifactorial disease in which sustained gut inflammation serves as a continued source of inflammatory mediators driving degenerative processes at distant sites such as joints. The objective of this study was to use the equine model of naturally occurring obesity associated OA to compare the fecal microbiome in OA and health and correlate those findings to differential gene expression synovial fluid (SF) cells, circulating leukocytes and cytokine levels (plasma, SF) towards improved understanding of the interplay between microbiome and immune transcriptome in OA pathophysiology.
Methods: Feces, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), and SF cells were isolated from healthy skeletally mature horses (n=12; 6 males, 6 females) and those with OA (n=6, 2 females, 4 males).

Flatworms depend on stem cells for continued tissue growth and renewal during their life cycles, making these cells valuable drug targets. While neoblasts are extensively characterized in the free-living planarian , and similar stem cells have been characterized in the trematode , their identification and characterization in cestodes is just emerging. Since stem cells are generally affected by irradiation, in this work we used this experimental approach to study the stem cells of the model cestode .

Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is a lethal pathological change of fibrotic interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) with abundant fibroblasts proliferation after severely or continually alveolar epithelial cells (AECs) injury. Barely therapies are helpful for PF. Here we use bleomycin intratracheally injection to model PF with or without human umbilical cord-mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) and/or nintedanib intervention.

Leishmaniasis is a chronic inflammatory zoonotic illness caused by protozoan flagellates belonging to the genus. Current data suggest that over 1 billion people worldwide are susceptible to infection, primarily in tropical and subtropical countries, where up to 2 million new cases are reported annually. Therefore, the development of a vaccine is crucial to combating this disease.
