Many genetic abnormalities disclosed even in somatic cells like peripheral blood lymphocytes may mark footprint(s) of malignancy(ies). The present cytogenetic study on peripheral blood lymphocytes of sporadic breast cancer patients (n = 20) and their first degree relatives (n = 39) reports abnormalities of chromosomes 16, 5, 12, and 17 respectively in 17.59%, 8.33%, 6.48%, and 5.57% cells of patients and 15.83%, 8.33%, 7.5%, and 5% cells of their first degree relatives. These common chromosomal abnormalities pave the way to assume why first degree relatives of sporadic breast cancer patients are at increased risk of developing the same or other malignancies.

Introduction: The residual black wolfberry fruit (RBWF) is rich in nutrients and contains a diverse range of active substances, which may offer a viable alternative to antibiotics. This experiment was conducted to investigate the impact of varying levels of RBWF on the growth performance and rumen microorganisms of fattening sheep, and to quantify its economic benefits.
Methods: In this experiment, 40 three-month-old and male Duolang sheep with an average weight of 29.

Purpose: Heterozygous mutations in the insulin gene can give rise to a monogenic diabetes syndrome due to toxic misfolding of the variant proinsulin in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of pancreatic β-cells. Clinical mutations are widely distributed in the sequence (86 amino acids). Misfolding induces chronic ER stress and interferes in with wildtype biosynthesis and secretion.

Introduction: The quality of fruits has long been a key focus for breeders, and the development of scientifically sound and reasonable methods for evaluating fruit quality is of great significance in selecting superior cultivars. The mulberry tree, as a plant resource that serves both medicinal and dietary purposes, contains rich nutritional components and various bioactive compounds. These include properties such as immune enhancement, lipid-lowering effects, and anti-tumor activities.
