A large-scale study of mutations in mitochondrial DNA has revealed a subset that does not accumulate with age. https://elifesciences.org/articles/87194?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=organic_insights
'Our studies demonstrate that in vivo trans PD-L1/CD80 interactions do exist between T and tumor cells, and in vivo blockade of trans PD-L1/CD80 interactions or general PD-L1/CD80 interactions augment tumor immunity via expansion of IFN-γ-producing CD8+T cells and NOS2+macrophages in the tumor tissues.'

'Um outro ponto importante, que se coaduna com a estratégia de internacionalização das actividades da Fiocruz, é a possibilidade de a Fiocruz abrir uma filial aqui em Portugal por meio de um escritório ou um laboratório. Instalar fora do Brasil a partir de uma experiência que já teve em Moçambique.'

Damage dynamics in individual E. coli cells as they age explains why identical cells die at different times.
Amazingly, damage follows a stochastic equation found also in mice. Aging may be universal in its fundamental dynamics. #qbio #aging

Main mechanisms of enterococcal antibiotic resistance
Most commonly due to altered target with⬇️binding
➡️β-lactams: PBP4, PBP5
➡️Vancomycin: D-Ala-D-Lac
➡️Linezolid: 23s rRNA mutations
β-lactamases play no role so BLBLI won't work for Amp-R strains
