design and analysis software quantstudio: Cellular and Molecular Mechanisms Underlying the Pathogenesis of Hepatic Fibrosis Ralf Weiskirchen, 2020-12-29 Worldwide, liver fibrosis is a major cause of morbidity and mortality and is associated with a high medical and economic burden. It is the common consequence of chronic liver injury due to various etiologies. During fibrogenesis, there is a progressive substitution of the liver parenchyma by scar tissue. Recent advances in the understanding of the history of liver fibrosis have shown that the pathogenesis is driven by different cell types and a large variety of soluble mediators. At present, scientists working in this field aim to increase basic knowledge, improve diagnostics, and try to translate experimental findings into new treatment modalities. This book includes 12 selected contributions from the Special Issue “Cellular and Molecular Mechanisms Underlying the Pathogenesis of Hepatic Fibrosis” that was published in Cells. These articles summarize current perspectives and findings in hepatic fibrosis research showing how scientists try to use basic scientific research to create new therapies and diagnostics. |

design and analysis software quantstudio: Host-parasite interactions at the cellular, tissue, and organism level Xuexian Yang, William Harold Witola, Hua Cong, Huongzhi Chen, 2024-05-31 Protozoan and helminth parasites infect animals and humans and cause debilitating pathologies that cause a variety of morbidities and deaths worldwide. The ability of parasites to establish infection and cause disease in mammalian hosts is a result of a series of intricate mechanisms evolved by parasitic species to confront and evade the host's defensive responses, along with the ability to use the host’s metabolic and catabolic processes and host cellular organelles to their benefit. For instance, parasites may have predilection sites in the host that are not accessible to immune effector molecules and mechanisms, may acquire host-derived masking molecules, can vary their surface molecules, and can produce molecules that block or misguide the host immune responses. The host's interactions with the parasite, on the other hand, are critical for the initiation and induction of host signaling events that are critical in mounting formidable defensive immune responses against the invading parasite. Therefore, the ability of a parasite to successfully establish infection and cause disease largely depends on its interaction with the host and the ability of the host to mount successful and effective resistance. Thus, studying host-parasite interactions and cross-talks is critical for understanding parasite infection and adaptation mechanisms within the host, as well as for developing strategies for effective prevention and control of parasitic infections in humans and animals. The topic will cover a wide spectrum of parasitic protozoa and helminths and provide an opportunity to share new molecular and translational advances in parasitic infections and diseases. |

design and analysis software quantstudio: 2021 WHO Classification of Pediatric Brain Tumors: A Final Wedding Between Morphology and Molecular Biology? Angela Mastronuzzi, Andrea Carai, Lucia Quaglietta, Elisabetta Schiavello, 2024-05-22 Tumors of the central nervous system (CNS) are a dramatic health problem due to their high morbidity and mortality in all ages. In the pediatric population, brain tumors constitute the second most common cancer diagnosed worldwide each year, accounting for approximately 25% of childhood cancers. Although there has been a moderate increase in survival rates for children with CNS tumors over the past decades, CNS tumors remain the second leading cause of cancer death in children less than 20 years of age. The fifth edition of the World Health Organization (WHO) Classification of Tumors of the Central Nervous System (WHO CNS5) was recently released. This builds on the 2016 WHO CNS tumor update, which for the first time incorporated molecular data with histology in classifying CNS tumors. The changes in the WHO CNS5 group tumors into more biologically and molecularly defined entities with better characterized natural histories, as well as introducing new tumor types and subtypes, especially in the pediatric population. Most importantly, these updated classifications will enable clinicians to have a better understanding of the prognosis and optimal therapy for patients with specific CNS tumors. Therefore, optimizing the treatment of childhood CNS tumors remains a tremendously challenging task, requiring a multidisciplinary approach involving many pediatric specialists as well as the support of molecular biologists and pharmacologists. |

design and analysis software quantstudio: Identifying Novel Biomarkers in Bladder Cancer, 2nd edition Thornsten Ecke, Thierry Massfelder, 2023-07-18 Bladder cancer is one of the most common urological diseases with a high mortality rate and poor prognosis. It is currently ranked as the 10th most common malignancy worldwide. The majority of bladder cancer patients have been found to be diagnosed with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) and the remaining, are diagnosed with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). Although there have been advances in the treatment and therapies provided for bladder cancer patients, the survival rate remains low, primarily due to recurrence and metastasis of the disease following treatment. Surgical treatment is currently the most common form including radical cystectomy which is the standard form of treatment combined with neoadjuvant chemotherapy. However, the 5-year overall survival rate is 50%. Therefore, further studies are required to understand the molecular mechanisms involved in the progression of bladder cancer and identify novel biomarkers to act as a diagnostic tool for patients. There have been many studies involving the detection of biomarkers in bladder cancer in addition to monitoring disease recurrence to understand the impact and predict potential outcomes. A variety of urine biomarkers have been developed to detect bladder cancer and prognostic risk stratification including mutational DNA and the levels of RNA expression. Circulating tumor cells have also been identified as a potential biomarker for bladder cancer patients. However, there are significant challenges as bladder cancer has demonstrated high levels of cellular and molecular heterogeneity and some markers do not have sufficient sensitivity for accurate detection. Therefore, further studies are required to continue to identify new novel biomarkers for bladder cancer. The aim of this Research Topic is to discuss novel biomarkers in bladder cancer and how it impacts the disease progression and the survival rate for bladder cancer patients. |

design and analysis software quantstudio: The Role of Toll-like Receptors and their Related Signaling Pathways in Viral Infection and Inflammation Ralf Kircheis, Oliver Planz, 2024-02-01 Toll-like receptors (TLRs) represent a powerful system for recognition and elimination of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) from bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens and damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) released from dying cells. TLRs are mainly expressed on immune cells, but can also be present on other cell populations. Typical PAMPs include bacterial cell wall components, viral pathogens, or pathogenic nucleic acids, including viral RNA and DNA. Activation of TLRs leads to the production of proinflammatory cytokines and type I interferons which are important for induction of the host immune response against bacterial and viral infections. However, dysregulation and overstimulation can be detrimental leading to hyper-inflammation, sepsis, and loss of tissue integrity. Furthermore, TLRs are involved in the pathogenesis of acute viral infections, including COVID-19. Consequently, TLRs are promising targets for pharmacological intervention and treatment. |

design and analysis software quantstudio: Women in Cytokines and Soluble Mediators in Immunity Diana Boraschi, Giselle Penton-Rol, Marita Troye Blomberg, Olukemi Amodu, 2024-02-13 We are delighted to present the inaugural Frontiers in Immunology “Women in Cytokines and Soluble Mediators in Immunity” series of article collections. At present, less than 30% of researchers worldwide are women. Long-standing biases and gender stereotypes are discouraging girls and women away from science-related fields, and Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) research in particular. Science and gender equality are, however, essential to ensure sustainable development as highlighted by UNESCO. In order to change traditional mindsets, gender equality must be promoted, stereotypes defeated, and girls and women should be encouraged to pursue STEM careers. |

design and analysis software quantstudio: Biology of Myxobacteria Honghui Zhu, Li Zhoukun, David Edward Whitworth , David Cole Stevens, Jingjing Wang, 2024-07-22 Myxobacteria are ubiquitous Gram-negative soil bacteria with a complex multicellular population behavior. They are highly social microbes that move, hunt and develop to build fruiting bodies, which are associated with feeding on a diverse range of bacteria and fungi for nutrition. Therefore, myxobacteria are classified as keystone taxa in the microbial food web and are key players in determining community organization, with potential applications in the biocontrol of plant diseases, wastewater treatment, and bioconversion. In addition, myxobacteria are regarded as natural pharmaceutical and functional enzyme factories due to their diversity and the unique properties of their secondary metabolites and enzymes, making them highly attractive for resource discovery. However, the difficulty in purifying and cultivating many types of myxobacteria limits the in-depth study of myxobacteria. Otherwise, key factors involved in the biological interaction and bioconversion of myxobacteria taxa remain largely unexplored, hindering their practical applications. |

design and analysis software quantstudio: Gene Quantification Francois Ferre, 2012-12-06 Geneticists and molecular biologists have been interested in quantifying genes and their products for many years and for various reasons (Bishop, 1974). Early molecular methods were based on molecular hybridization, and were devised shortly after Marmur and Doty (1961) first showed that denaturation of the double helix could be reversed - that the process of molecular reassociation was exquisitely sequence dependent. Gillespie and Spiegelman (1965) developed a way of using the method to titrate the number of copies of a probe within a target sequence in which the target sequence was fixed to a membrane support prior to hybridization with the probe - typically a RNA. Thus, this was a precursor to many of the methods still in use, and indeed under development, today. Early examples of the application of these methods included the measurement of the copy numbers in gene families such as the ribosomal genes and the immunoglo bulin family. Amplification of genes in tumors and in response to drug treatment was discovered by this method. In the same period, methods were invented for estimating gene num bers based on the kinetics of the reassociation process - the so-called Cot analysis. This method, which exploits the dependence of the rate of reassociation on the concentration of the two strands, revealed the presence of repeated sequences in the DNA of higher eukaryotes (Britten and Kohne, 1968). An adaptation to RNA, Rot analysis (Melli and Bishop, 1969), was used to measure the abundance of RNAs in a mixed population. |
