Adaptation of Candida albicans to specific host environments by gain-of-function mutations in transcription factors

Plos.org 

by Joachim Morschhäuser

The yeast Candida albicans is usually a harmless member of the normal microbiota in healthy persons but is also a major fungal pathogen that can colonize and infect almost every human tissue. A successful adaptation to environmental changes encountered in different host niches requires an appropriate regulation of gene expression. The zinc cluster transcription factors are the largest family of transcriptional regulators in C. albicans and are involved in the control of virtually all aspects of its biology. Читать дальше...

Tissue specific innate immune responses impact viral infection in Drosophila

Plos.org 

by Elisha Segrist, Steven Miller, Beth Gold, Yue Li, Sara Cherry

All organisms sense and respond to pathogenic challenge. Tissue-specific responses are required to combat pathogens infecting distinct cell types. Cyclic dinucleotides (CDNs) are produced endogenously downstream of pathogen recognition or by pathogens themselves which bind to STING to activate NF-kB-dependent antimicrobial gene expression programs. It remains unknown whether there are distinct immune responses to CDNs in Drosophila tissues. Читать дальше...

Plos.org 

by Md. Sayeed Akhtar, Khalid Orayj

The increasing cost of prescription drugs has high concern and associated with medication nonadherence and adverse health outcomes. The use of generic prescription drugs by the patients depends on if recommended by competent healthcare providers. Generic medicines, which are cheaper and bioequivalent to brand-name drugs, offer an opportunity to reduce healthcare expenditures of Saudi Arabia’s healthcare system as per the Vision 2030 plan. Therefore, the... Читать дальше...

Family care and predictors of the disabled elderly in China: A cross-sectional study based on the Anderson model

Plos.org 

by Yuwei Zhang, Li Wang

In light of China’s progressively aging population, family care with the "warmth of affection" has always been an irreplaceable form of care that meets the wishes of the majority of disabled elderly to enjoy their twilight years comfortably. Data from a follow-up survey on the influencing factors of the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey from 2018 and the Anderson Model was used as a theoretical framework to analyze the influencing factors using a binary logistic regression model.
