Prenatal adverse life events increase the risk for atopic diseases in children, which is enhanced in the absence of a maternal atopic predispositionThere is evidence to suggest an association between prenatal maternal stress and the development of asthma or other atopic diseases in offspring.
The year 2020 has been marked by possibly the greatest health challenge to face modern society. The emergence of COVID-19 as a novel human pathogen

Antibody responses against influenza A decline with successive years of annual influenza vaccinationInfluenza vaccine effectiveness and immunogenicity can be compromised with repeated vaccination. We assessed immunological markers in a cohort of healthcare workers (HCW) from six public hospitals around Australia during 2020-2021.
Helping children build resilience and cope with the trauma associated with medical emergencies and chronic health conditions is the focus of a promising pilot program being undertaken by The Kids Research Institute Australia.

Suppression of TGF-β/SMAD signaling by an inner nuclear membrane phosphatase complexCytokines of the TGF-β superfamily control essential cell fate decisions via receptor regulated SMAD (R-SMAD) transcription factors. Ligand-induced R-SMAD phosphorylation in the cytosol triggers their activation and nuclear accumulation. We determine how R-SMADs are inactivated by dephosphorylation in the cell nucleus to counteract signaling by TGF-β superfamily ligands.

The overlapping global distribution of dengue, chikungunya, Zika and yellow feverArboviruses transmitted mainly by Aedes (Stegomyia) aegypti and Ae. albopictus, including dengue, chikungunya, and Zika viruses, and yellow fever virus in urban settings, pose an escalating global threat. Existing risk maps, often hampered by surveillance biases, may underestimate or misrepresent the true distribution of these diseases and do not incorporate epidemiological similarities despite shared vector species.
