Predicting language difficulties in middle childhood from early developmental milestones: A comparison of traditional regression and machine learning techniques

The current study provides preliminary evidence that machine learning algorithms provide equivalent predictive accuracy to traditional methods for language difficulties in middle childhood

Research

Epigenetic dysregulation of naive CD4+ T-cell activation genes in childhood food allergy

Our data indicate epigenetic dysregulation in the early stages of signal transduction through the T cell receptor complex, and likely reflects pathways modified by gene-environment interactions in food allergy

Research

Structure-function relationships of the neisserial EptA enzyme responsible for phosphoethanolamine decoration of lipid A: Rationale for drug targeting

This review concentrates on the phosphoethanolamine decoration of lipid A in the pathogenic species of the genus Neisseria

Research

A platform for discovery of functional cell-penetrating peptides for efficient multi-cargo intracellular delivery

This report thus establishes a discovery platform for identifying novel, functional CPPs to expand the delivery landscape of druggable intracellular targets for biological therapeutics

Research

Ultraviolet irradiation of skin alters the faecal microbiome independently of vitamin D in mice

Skin exposure to ultraviolet radiation alters the faecal microbiome, and further investigations to explore the implications of this in health and disease are warranted

Research

Worldwide variation in human milk metabolome: Indicators of breast physiology and maternal lifestyle?

This study investigates the variation of human milk metabolites in human milk between five different countries

Research

Rhinovirus is the most common virus and rhinovirus-C is the most common species in paediatric intensive care respiratory admissions

This is the first report examining the role of different rhinovirus species in ARIs in children admitted to a tertiary PICU

Research

Tryptophan and arginine catabolic enzymes and regulatory cytokines in clinically isolated syndrome and multiple sclerosis

Higher IDO and ARG expression in clinically isolated syndrome and multiple sclerosis provides one sustained homeostatic mechanism to control multiple sclerosis-associated inflammation

Research

Changes in cell morphology guide identification of tubulin as the off-target for protein kinase inhibitors

Early changes in cell morphology upon treatments are a strong indication that the inhibitor is directly targeting tubulin

Research

Differential Sensitivity of Human Hepatocellular Carcinoma Xenografts to an IGF-II Neutralizing Antibody May Involve Activated STAT3

These findings implicate the activation of STAT3 as one pathway that may mediate resistance to IGF-II-targeted therapy in HCC
