Abstract Background While immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI) has revolutionized the treatment of metastatic cutaneous melanoma, no standard treatments are available for patients with metastatic uveal melanoma (UM).Several locoregional therapies are effective in the treatment of liver metastases, such as percutaneous hepatic perfusion with melphalan
Dangerous Liaisons: Long-Term Replication with an Extrachromosomal HPV Genome
Papillomaviruses cause persistent, and usually self-limiting, infections in the mucosal and cutaneous surfaces of the host epithelium.However, in some sten jacket m cases, infection with an oncogenic HPV can lead to cancer.The viral genome is a small, double-stranded circular DNA molecule that is assembled into nucleosomes at all stages of infectio
Effect of different energy to protein ratios in starter diet with dehydrated food waste, superworms and unfertilized eggs on growth performance of village chickens
A study was conducted using 144 day-old chicks of Arabian strain village chicken to determine the effect of dietary protein and energy ratios in starter diets with dehydrated food waste, superworms and unfertilized eggs lightning to usb apple on growth performance in closed confinement system.Dehydrated food waste was the main energy source, superw
Early Reciprocal Effects in a Murine Model of Traumatic Brain Injury and Femoral Fracture
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) represents a major cause of death and disability in early adulthood.Concomitant extracranial injury such as long bone fracture was reported to exacerbate TBI pathology.However, early reciprocal effects and mechanisms have been barely investigated.To address this issue, C57BL/6N mice were subjected to either the controll
Cross-taxon congruence between predatory arthropods and plants across Mediterranean agricultural landscapes
Although arthropods are among the most diverse, abundant and ecologically important animals in terrestrial ecosystems, they are generally neglected in most biodiversity inventories due to their complex systematics and overwhelming diversity, coupled with the current decline in the number of taxonomists.For this reason, several surrogate groups for
