Laboulbenia variabilis Thaxt. (Fungi: Ascomycota): A New Vouchered Species Record for New York from the Carabid Beetle Oodes amaroides Dejean

Patricia Kaishian, Robert E. Schmidt, Erik Kiviat

We surveyed macrofauna collected from temporary waters in the Hudson Valley, NY, for the presence of Laboulbeniales. A specimen of Oodes amaroides (Coleoptera: Carabidae) hosted Laboulbenia variabilis. This is a new host record and a new vouchered species record for New York.

Widespread sex-biased gene expression reflects female-biased longevity in a species with environmental sex determination

Samantha L. Bock, Luke A. Hoekstra, Kelsi Hagerty, Robert E. Schmidt et autres

Abstract Sexes frequently differ in life history traits including body size, lifespan, and age at sexual maturity. Aging, the progressive decline in physiological function and cellular resilience over time, is a central process contributing to sex-specific life histories, yet the mechanisms driving …

Case report: Molecular characterization of adult atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor and review of the literature

Miguel A. Hernandez‐Rovira, Michelle Connor, Robert C. Osorio, Emilie V. Russler-Germain et autres

Background and importance: Atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumors (ATRTs) are typically aggressive pediatric tumors with a median survival of 11 months. Due to the paucity of cases in adults, the clinical behavior of these pathologies is not well understood. Here we present the …

Adjuvant Chemoradiation Confers a Survival Benefit in Sellar/Suprasellar Adult Atypical Teratoid Rhabdoid Tumor

Miguel A. Hernandez‐Rovira, Michelle Connor, Rob Osario, Emilie V. Russler-Germain et autres

Introduction: Atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumors (ATRTs), aggressive WHO grade 4 tumors typically presenting in the pediatric population and associated with a very poor prognosis, currently have a median overall survival of 11 months. Despite their usual adult presentation as sellar/suprasellar masses, no …

Pmp2+ Schwann Cells Maintain the Survival of Large-Caliber Motor Axons

Mikolaj M Kozlowski, Amy M. Strickland, Ana Morales Benitez, Robert E. Schmidt et autres

Neurodegenerative diseases of both the central and peripheral nervous system are characterized by selective neuronal vulnerability, i.e., pathology that affects particular types of neurons. While much of this cell type selectivity may be driven by intrinsic differences among the neuron subpopulations, neuron-extrinsic …

Intestinal stem cells enhance local mucosal immunity through apoptotic body phagocytosis

Julie Y. Zhou, Qiuhe Lu, Yujia Hu, Satoru Fujii et autres

Modulation of immune tone at mucosal surfaces is critical to maintain homeostasis while facilitating the handling of emerging threats. One dynamic component of immune modulation is the phagocytosis and clearance of apoptotic bodies known as efferocytosis that inhibits inflammation by promoting its …
