The most widely used class of antivirals available for Influenza treatment are the neuraminidase inhibitors (NAI) Oseltamivir and Zanamivir. However, amino acid (AA) substitutions in the neuraminidase may cause reduced inhibition or high antiviral resistance. In Mexico, the current state of knowledge about NAI susceptibility is scarce, in this study we report the results of 14 years of Influenza surveillance by phenotypic and genotypic methods. A total of 255 isolates were assessed with the NAI assay, including Influenza A(H1N1)pdm09, A(H3N2) and Influenza B (IBV). Furthermore, 827 sequences contained in the GISAID platform were analyzed in search of relevant mutations.Overall, five isolates showed highly reduced inhibition or reduced inhibition to Oseltamivir, and two showed reduced inhibition to Zanamivir in the NAI assays. Additionally, five A(H1N1)pdm09 sequences from the GISAID possessed AA substitutions associated to reduced inhibition to Oseltamivir and none to Zanamivir. Oseltamivir resistant A(H1N1)pdm09 harbored the H275Y mutation. No genetic mutations were identified in Influenza A(H3N2) and IBV. Overall, these results show that in Mexico the rate of NAI resistance is low (0.6%), but it is essential to continue the Influenza surveillance in order to understand the drug susceptibility of circulating strains.

Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS), the most common pediatric soft tissue sarcoma, arises in skeletal muscle and remains in an undifferentiated state due to transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulators. Among its subtypes, fusion-negative RMS (FN-RMS) accounts for the majority of diagnoses in the pediatric population. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are non-coding RNAs that modulate cell identity via post-transcriptional regulation of messenger RNAs (mRNAs).

Naringenin has the potential to regulate ferroptosis and mitigate renal damage in diabetic nephropathy (DN). However, it remains unclear whether the naringenin's effects in DN are linked to its ability to regulate ferroptosis. This study investigated the potential anti-ferroptosis properties of naringenin in high glucose (HG)-induced renal tubular epithelial cell models.

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a severe cardiovascular disease (CVD) that is partly attributable to endothelial dysfunction, inflammatory response, and angiogenesis. G protein-coupled receptor 4 (GPR4), a proton-sensitive G protein-coupled receptor that is abundantly expressed in vascular endothelial cells, has been associated with numerous physiological functions. Nevertheless, its potential involvement in the development of AAA remains unexplored.
