A short treatment of donor cells was associated with fewer signs of graft-versus-host disease and higher survival in fully mismatched mice, with similar findings in a haploidentical model. The study tested cells and animals, not patients, and did not directly assess anti-tumour activity.

A single-center retrospective cohort found that non-cryopreserved grafts were linked with similar engraftment and overall survival to cryopreserved grafts. Hospital stays were shorter, but mucositis was more frequent, and the non-randomized design limits causal conclusions.

Foliar treatments with epibrassinolide, melatonin, potassium phosphate, or a mixture of all three were linked with higher wheat yields and dry matter under natural heat stress after flowering. The results varied by season and came from one cultivar at one field location.

Higher GPER1 expression was associated with longer overall survival among younger women in a retrospective tumor analysis, while laboratory results pointed to cell-cycle changes that need further testing.

Researchers found coordinated changes in fibrosis markers, SOCS3 methylation and JAK2/STAT3 signaling in rat vocal-fold fibroblasts from injured animals and after TGF-β1 exposure. The 5-aza findings point to a possible pathway, but the laboratory work does not establish cause and effect or human treatment relevance.

A study of 103 young stud boars found breed-specific changes in fecal microbial diversity and community structure during and after a short course of dietary amoxicillin. Large White and Landrace boars had their lowest measured diversity during treatment, while Duroc showed no significant time-point differences in the diversity measures.

A study of petal cells found more epidermis-enriched genes, layer-exclusive expression changes and PhDEF binding sites in the epidermis than in the mesophyll. The results suggest that cell-layer context may shape how PhDEF operates, but they do not prove that every bound gene is regulated by PhDEF.

Virus-free lineage tracing, live imaging and single-cell analysis found no sign that sustained NeuroD1 expression converted mouse microglia into neurons. The labeled cells instead remained microglia or disappeared, with increased cell death and autophagy-related changes.

A single infusion of edited blood-forming stem cells was associated with donor-cell engraftment and better movement, cerebellar, heart and pancreatic measures in humanized Friedreich’s ataxia mice. The findings were incomplete and remain preclinical, with some abnormalities persisting and the proposed editing threshold not prospectively validated.

Researchers combined five new genome assemblies, a published genome, population-level sequence data and ATAC-seq profiles to track genetic and chromatin differences across Heliconius erato. The strongest association appeared at intermediate divergence, while two hybrid-zone tests were not significant.

GPS tracking linked reinforcers that joined resident birds with slower dispersal and larger core ranges than birds that stayed in an exclusive reinforcer group. Survival to 55 days did not differ significantly, and the observational design could not show that social integration caused the movement patterns.
