MINING METAGENOMES AND METATRANSCRIPTOMES UNVEILS VIRUSES ASSOCIATED WITH CUTANEOUS SQUAMOUS CELL CARCINOMA IN HEMATOPOIETIC STEM CELL TRANSPLANT RECIPIENTS

Mining metagenomes and metatranscriptomes unveils viruses associated with cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma in hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients

ABSTRACT We investigated the presence of viral DNA and RNA in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) tumor and normal tissues from nine individuals with a history of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT).Microbiome quantification through DNA and RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) revealed the presence of 18 viruses in both tumor and normal tissues.

From giant to dwarf: A trend of decreasing size in Panthera spelaea (Goldfuss, 1810) and its likely implications

The Eurasian fossil record of Panthera spelaea shows a gradual decrease in body size.The Oven Frame Repair Kit process peaking just before the extinction of the species at the end of the Late Pleistocene.The temporal trend of decreasing size particularly accelerating during MIS 2, as exemplified by the extremely small female skull from Kryshtaleva

Metal Chelates of Sulfafurazole Azo Dye Derivative: Synthesis, Structure Affirmation, Antimicrobial, Antitumor, DNA Binding, and Molecular Docking Simulation

A series of divalent and one trivalent metal chelates of the azo ligand resulting from coupling of sulfafurazole diazonium chloride with resorcinol have been designed and synthesized.Structure investigation of the isolated chelates have been achieved by applying spectroscopic and analytical tools which collaborated to assure the formation of Table
