Background: To investigate the incidence and potential predictors of immune tolerance among adult living donor liver transplant (LDLT) recipients.
Methods: This case-control study included adult recipients who underwent LDLT between May 2004 and January 2018, with at least a 5-year follow-up after LDLT. We divided the study recipients into two groups: Group 1 (Tolerance Group) included recipients who achieved operational or prope tolerance for at least one year; Group 2 (Control Group) included recipients who did not achieve tolerance.

Plants have developed complex regulatory networks to adapt to various stresses, including cold stress. Trehalose (Tre), known as the "sugar of life," plays a crucial role in enhancing cold tolerance by triggering antioxidation. However, the underlying regulatory mechanisms remain unclear.

Mussels from the Mytilus edulis species complex experience a salinity gradient from the North Sea into the Baltic Proper ranging from 32 to 5. As osmoconformers, they adjust their internal osmolarity to match that of their surroundings, which presents a significant challenge to the metabolic machinery, including their mitochondria. We hypothesized that the osmotic optima for the mitochondrial function of mussels matches the prevailing habitat salinity and is accompanied by a population specific metabolite profile.

Introduction: Infants and young children typically have the highest age-related risk of invasive meningococcal disease. The immunogenicity and safety of a single primary dose and a booster of a meningococcal A/C/W/Y tetanus toxoid conjugate vaccine (MenACWY-TT; Nimenrix) in infants were evaluated.
Methods: In this phase 3b, open-label, single-arm study, healthy 3-month-old infants received a single Nimenrix dose followed by a booster at age 12 months (1 + 1 series).

GRAS, termed after gibberellic acid insensitive (GAI), RGA (repressor of GA1), and SCR (scarecrow), is a plant-specific transcription factor crucial for plant development and stress response. However, understanding of the functions played by the GRAS members and their target genes in citrus is limited. In this study, we identified a cold stress-responsive GRAS gene from , designated as PtrPAT1, by yeast one-hybrid library screening using the promoter of , a betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase (BADH)-like gene.
