AbstractToxoplasma gondii is a protozoan parasite that causes persistent infection in warm-blooded vertebrates by undergoing differentiation from a replicative stage (tachyzoites) to a latent encysted stage (bradyzoites). Stage differentiation is critical for transmission and pathogenesis and relies on gene regulation driven by a network of transcription and epigenetic factors.

We present the first epidemiological study of cholesteatoma using data from UK BioBank. We identified 1140 cholesteatoma cases from the UK Biobank cohort. These cases were compared with two different control groups: matched ear disease controls and ear disease-free controls. Demographic and ICD-10 data are comprehensively summarised from our case–control study. Cholesteatoma was significantly associated with male sex, increasing age and greater deprivation.

1 Introduction Neural Crest Stem cells (NC) is a transient and migratory population of stem cells that arise from the junction of the neuronal and non-neuronal ectoderm, namely the Neural Plate Border.[1, 2] After neurulation, during formation of the neural tube, the neural folds of the ectoderm converge at the dorsal midline.

AbstractSchwann cells are critical for the proper development and function of the peripheral nervous system, where they form a mutually beneficial relationship with axons. Past studies have highlighted that a pair of proteins called the prohibitins play major roles in Schwann cell biology. Prohibitins are ubiquitously expressed and versatile proteins.
