TL;DR: Conjugates of bovine serum albumin and CdTe nanoparticles capped with l-cysteine have been synthesized via a one-pot glutaric dialdehyde cross-linking procedure and circular dichroism spectroscopy demonstrates that the tertiary structure of the protein remains largely intact after the conjugation.
Abstract: Conjugates of bovine serum albumin and CdTe nanoparticles capped with l-cysteine have been synthesized via a one-pot glutaric dialdehyde cross-linking procedure. Diads (1:1) with some amount of 2:1 albumin−nanoparticle assemblies preferably form in this reaction, as evidenced by gel electrophoresis. Circular dichroism spectroscopy demonstrates that the tertiary structure of the protein remains largely intact after the conjugation. Attachment of protein moieties result in a significant increase of CdTe emission, which is attributed to the resonance energy transfer from the tryptophan moieties of albumin to CdTe nanoparticles acting as receptors for the protein antennae.

TL;DR: The molecular heterogeneity of hepatocellular carcinoma, the intrinsic and extrinsic factors that stimulate tumour evolution and how this information can be leveraged to improve the clinical management of patients with this disease are discussed.
Abstract: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the most common form of primary liver cancer, typically develops on the background of chronic liver disease and is an aggressive disease with dismal prognosis. Studies using next-generation sequencing of multiple regions of the same tumour nodule suggest different patterns of HCC evolution and confirm the high molecular heterogeneity in a subset of patients. Different hypotheses have been proposed to explain tumour evolution, including clonal selection or neutral and punctuated acquisition of genetic alterations. In parallel, data indicate a fundamental contribution of nonmalignant cells of the tumour microenvironment to cancer clonal evolution. Delineating these dynamics is crucial to improve the treatment of patients with HCC, and particularly to help understand how HCC evolution drives resistance to systemic therapies. A number of new minimally invasive techniques, such as liquid biopsies, could help track cancer evolution in HCC. These tools might improve our understanding of how systemic therapies affect tumour clonal composition and could facilitate implementation of real-time molecular monitoring of patients with HCC.

TL;DR: This study presents the first validated consensus QC criteria for retinal OCT reading in MS, and suggests the OSCAR-IB QC criteria to be considered in the context of multicentre studies and trials in MS.
Abstract: Background
Retinal optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an imaging biomarker for neurodegeneration in multiple sclerosis (MS). In order to become validated as an outcome measure in multicenter studies, reliable quality control (QC) criteria with high inter-rater agreement are required.

TL;DR: This review about the genus Laminaria sensu lato summarizes the extensive literature that has been published since the overview of the genus given by Kain in 1979, and covers recent insights into phylogeny and taxonomy, and discusses morphotypes, ecotypes, population genetics and demography.
Abstract: This review about the genus Laminaria sensu lato summarizes the extensive literature that has been published since the overview of the genus given by Kain in 1979. The recent proposal to divide the genus into the two genera Laminaria and Saccharina is acknowledged, but the published data are discussed under a 'sensu lato' concept, introduced here. This includes all species which have been considered to be 'Laminaria' before the division of the genus. In detail, after an introduction the review covers recent insights into phylogeny and taxonomy, and discusses morphotypes, ecotypes, population genetics and demography. It describes growth and photosynthetic performance of sporophytes with special paragraphs on the regulation of sporogenesis, regulation by endogenous rhythms, nutrient metabolism, storage products, and salinity tolerance. The biology of microstages is discussed separately. The ecology of these kelps is described with a focus on stress defence against abiotic and biotic factors and the role of Laminaria as habitat, its trophic interactions and its competition is discussed. Finally, recent developments in aquaculture are summarized. In conclusion to each section, as a perspective and guide to future research, we draw attention to the remaining gaps in the knowledge about the genus and kelps in general.
