    Abstract The principal hormonal product of the thyroid gland, L-thyroxine (T4), is a prohormone for 3,3',5-triiodo-L-thyronine, T3, the major ligand of nuclear thyroid hormone receptors (TRs). At a cell surface thyroid hormone analogue receptor on cancer cell and endothelial cell plasma membrane integrin αvβ3, however, T4 at physiological concentrations is biologically active and is the major ligand. At this site in solid tumor cells, T4 nongenomically initiates cell proliferation, is anti-apoptotic by multiple mechanisms, supports radioresistance and enhances cancer-related angiogenesis. In contrast, hypothyroidism has been reported clinically to slow tumor growth. At physiological levels, T3 is not biologically active at the integrin and maintenance of euthyroidism with T3 in cancer patients may be associated with slowed tumor proliferation. Against this background, we raise the possibility that host serum T4 levels that are spontaneously in the upper tertile or quartile of the normal range in cancer patients may be a factor that contributes to aggressive tumor behavior. Recent observations on tumor metastasis and tumor-associated propensity for thrombosis due to T4 also justify clinical statistical analysis for a relationship to upper tertile hormone levels. That reverse T3 (rT3) may stimulate tumor growth has recently been reported and thus the utility of adding this measurement to thyroid function testing in cancer patients requires assessment. In summary, T4 at physiological concentrations promotes tumor cell division and aggressiveness and euthyroid hypothyroxinemia arrests clinically advanced solid tumors. These findings support the clinical possibility that T4 levels in the upper tertile of the normal range require examination as a tumor supporting factor.

    Abstract This article presents a review of recent advancements in the utilization of NAA-based techniques for detecting foodborne pathogens in food products, focusing on studies conducted within the past five years. This review revealed that recent research efforts have primarily aimed at enhancing sensitivity and specificity by improving sample pre-treatment/preparation, DNA isolation, and readout methods. Isothermal-based amplification methods, such as LAMP, RPA, RAA, and RCA, have emerged as promising approaches, providing rapid results within one h and often demonstrating comparable or superior sensitivity to conventional or qPCR methods. However, the attention paid to specific pathogens varies, with

    Abstract Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a halophilic gram-negative bacterium commonly found in marine environments, particularly in warm coastal waters. This pathogen has been reported as a common cause of foodborne illness associated with the consumption of raw or undercooked seafood. The presence and density of this bacterium in seafood are often associated with the climatological conditions of the marine environment. Herein, we developed the quantitative risk assessment model for Vibrio parahaemolyticus in oysters in Taiwan by considering seasonal variations, time periods, climate change scenarios, and post-harvest interventions. This study showed that season, time period, shared socioeconomic pathway (SSP), and post-harvest intervention significantly influenced the risk level of becoming ill from consuming oysters. The mean estimates of risk in winter, spring, summer, and fall were estimated to be 9.1 × 10⁻⁵, 2.0 × 10⁻³, 2.0 × 10⁻², 6.9 × 10⁻³ per serving, respectively. Our models predict that, if global temperatures continue to increase in the coming decades due to climate change, the risk per serving of oysters is likely to increase by 18-145% by 2041-2060 and by 18-718% by 2081-2100, depending on the season and SSP. The application of thermal processing or high hydrostatic pressure processing was found to be the most effective approach in reducing risk, even under the threat of increasing global temperatures.

    Abstract Diatoms, efficient carbon capture organisms, contribute to 20% of global carbon fixation and 40% of ocean primary productivity, garnering significant attention to their growth. Despite their significance, the synthesis mechanism of polyamines (PAs), especially spermidine (Spd), which are crucial for growth in various organisms, remains unexplored in diatoms. This study reveals the vital role of Spd, synthesized through the spermidine synthase (SDS)-based pathway, in the growth of the diatom

    Abstract White spot syndrome virus (WSSV), an enveloped double-stranded DNA virus, is the causative agent of white spot syndrome (WSS), which has been linked to cultured shrimp mass mortality in many countries. Therefore, the development of anti-WSSV agents is among the top priorities of the aquaculture sector. Here, we describe the preparation of polyamine-modified carbon quantum dots (polyamine CQDs) for the treatment of WSSV. Moreover, in vivo experiments were conducted in shrimp to confirm the anti-WSSV effect of the proposed CQD-based strategy.
