Ovarian cancers depend on Bcl-xL and Mcl-1, two anti-apoptotic protein of the Bcl-2 family, for their survival and their inhibition seems to by a relevant strategy. The BH3-mimetic molecule ABT-737 (or its oral form, ABT-263), is a strong Bcl-xL inhibitor, but Mcl-1 inhibition remains problematic. S...

Theileria parasites (Theileria. annulata and T. parva) are intracellular protozoa and members of the phylum Apicomplexa. Theileria parasites are the only eukaryotes that possess the property of being able to transform another eukaryote, their leukocyte host cells. Transformed leukocytes show many ch...

The evolutionary significance of some kinds of group living are well-known, some others such as the diapause aggregations remain poorly known although widespread.
