Mnemonic Topographies in Green Border Film: Migration, Memory, Trauma and Cultural Identity

Agnieszka Holland’s Green Border (2023) theorizes contemporary migration as a cultural formation inscribed within regimes of memory, identity, and border aesthetics, articulating displacement as a constitutive condition of Europe’s collecti...

Peripheral CLOCK regulates target-tissue glucocorticoid receptor transcriptional activity in a circadian fashion in man.

Context and objectiveCirculating cortisol fluctuates diurnally under the control of the "master" circadian CLOCK, while the peripheral "slave" counterpart of the latter regulates the transcriptional activity of the glucocorticoid receptor (...

Association Between Circulating PLA2G12B and Diabetic Kidney Disease in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Differential Associations of Seven Circulating Complement Proteins with Heart Failure: A Single-Center Cross-Sectional Study.

Transcriptional profiling of circulating extracellular vesicles from prebiopsy prostate cancer patients.

Bridging the gap: a genetically validated avian chorioallantoic membrane platform for investigation of spontaneous circulating tumor cells.

Circulating extracellular vesicle-enriched fraction in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and incident cancer.

Plasmids of co-circulating Staphylococcus aureus serve as vehicles for antimicrobial resistance sharing across diseased host-species at short timescales.

Elevated Eosinophils as a Feature of Inflammation Associated With Hypertension in Virally Suppressed People Living With HIV

Background People living with HIV (PLWH) are at increased risk of cardiovascular disease, including hypertension, which persists despite effective plasma viral suppression on antiretroviral therapy. HIV infection is characterized by long‐te...

Copper exposure association with prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and insulin resistance among US adults (NHANES 2011–2014)

Background: Excessive copper (Cu) has risky effect on insulin resistance (IR), oxidative stress and inflammation. Instead, some studies reported serum Cu to be protective for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The aim of this study ...

A nationwide study on immunosenescence biomarkers profile in older adults: ELSI-Brazil

Immunosenescence is a phenomenon caused by changes in the immune system, and part of these changes involves an increase in circulating immunological biomarkers, a process known as “Inflammaging.” Inflammaging can be associated with many dis...

Long Noncoding RNAs in Neurodegenerative Diseases: Pathogenesis and Potential Implications as Clinical Biomarkers

Neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs), including Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Parkinson’s disease (PD), Huntington’s disease (HD), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), are progressive and ultimately fatal. NDD onset is influenced by several fa...

Tailored antihypertensive drug therapy prescribed to older women attenuates circulating levels of interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α

Plant nutritional value of aquaculture water produced by feeding Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) alternative protein diets: A lettuce and basil case study

Societal Impact Statement Refining circular multitrophic food production methods, which integrate plant, fish, and insect outputs, is imperative for environmental sustainability. Our findings suggest that the right protein choices in fish f...

Impact of Myocardial Ischemia and Revascularization by Percutaneous Coronary Intervention on Circulating Level of Soluble ST2

Experimental Study on the Effect of the Angle of Attack on the Flow-Induced Vibration of a Harbor Seal’s Whisker

A harbor seal’s whisker is able to sense the trailing vortices of marine organisms due to its unique three-dimensional wavy shape, which suppresses the vibrations caused by its own vortex-shedding, while exciting large-amplitude and synchro...

Long-term interleukin-6 levels and subsequent risk of coronary heart disease: two new prospective studies and a systematic review.

BackgroundThe relevance to coronary heart disease (CHD) of cytokines that govern inflammatory cascades, such as interleukin-6 (IL-6), may be underestimated because such mediators are short acting and prone to fluctuations. We evaluated asso...

Circulating tumour cell enumeration, biomarker analyses, and kinetics in patients with colorectal cancer and other GI malignancies

ObjectiveMost of the work in terms of liquid biopsies in patients with solid tumors is focused on circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA). Our aim was to evaluate the feasibility of using circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in peripheral blood samples fro...

Topologically protected loop flows in high voltage AC power grids

Geographical features such as mountain ranges or big lakes and inland seas often result in large closed loops in high voltage AC power grids. Sizable circulating power flows have been recorded around such loops, which take up transmission l...

Exercise Training and Circulating Small Extracellular Vesicles: Appraisal of Methodological Approaches and Current Knowledge

In response to acute exercise, an array of metabolites, nucleic acids, and proteins are enriched in circulation. Collectively termed “exercise factors,” these molecules represent a topical area of research given their speculated contributio...
