(en) Stomopogon Malloch (Diptera, Muscidae) is a Neotropical genus recorded from Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile and Peru. In this contribution, the genus is revised, and three new species are described, one from Bolivia (Murillo, La Paz), one from Brazil (Palmas, Paraná) and one from Peru (Wayqecha, Cuzco). The descriptions include color images, illustrations and ultrastructural morphology of the terminalia of the adult. We provide an identification key to the species of Stomopogon and an updated map with species’ distributions. Stomopogon acuta (Malloch, 1934) is proposed as a new junior synonym of S. inculta Stein, 1911.

Complement system (CS) components are associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD), the commonest cause of dementia in the world. Neutrophils can be attracted to amyloid-β plaques by several pro-inflammatory factors, including the complement anaphylatoxin C5a. They may release neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), which are chromatin nets associated with myeloperoxidase, elastase, and other enzymes. Some CS molecules, such as C5a, C1q, and CR1, are associated with increased neutrophil recruitment and NETs release. However, the relationship between CS molecules and NETs in AD is poorly understood. In this work, we detected higher NET concentrations in plasma and serum of Brazilian AD patients, than in elderly controls (medians = 2.78 [2.07–6.19] vs. 2.23 [0.33–4.14] ng/mL, p = 0.0005). We discussed these results within the context of our former findings on complement and AD and the context of the literature on complement and NET release, suggesting both as possible therapeutic targets to prevent the progress of the disease.

Author summary Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus are species of mosquitoes responsible for the transmission of several arboviruses that cause infections worldwide. However, there are still no effective and safe vaccines or medications to prevent or treat arboviruses transmitted by these vectors, except for yellow fever. Moreover, current methodologies for monitoring and controlling A. aegypti and A. albopictus are not fully effective, as evidenced by the increasing cases of the arbovirus transmitted by these mosquitoes or have incompatible costs with the socioeconomic conditions of a large number of people. Thus, the traps tested in this study can be used as more effective and economical tools for monitoring A. aegypti and A. albopictus, since they are made with low cost material and they showed high efficiency in the capture of eggs, evidenced by the high values of ovitraps positive index and eggs density index, besides that one of the models captured Aedes spp. adults in both regions where they were tested. Therefore, the traps have potential for reducing Aedes spp. eggs and adults in the environment and sensibility for determining the local infestation index, which can be reconciled with official government strategies for more accurate vector monitoring actions.

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are functional transcripts with more than 200 nucleotides. These molecules exhibit great regulatory capacity and may act at different levels of gene expression regulation. Despite this regulatory versatility, the biology of these molecules is still poorly understood. Computational approaches are being increasingly used to elucidate biological mechanisms in which these lncRNAs may be involved. Co-expression networks can serve as great allies in elucidating the possible regulatory contexts in which these molecules are involved. Herein, we propose the use of the pipeline deposited in the RTN package to build lncRNAs co-expression networks using TCGA breast cancer (BC) cohort data. Worldwide, BC is the most common cancer in women and has great molecular heterogeneity. We identified an enriched co-expression network for the validation of relevant cell processes in the context of BC, including LINC00504. This lncRNA has increased expression in luminal subtype A samples, and is associated with prognosis in basal-like subtype. Silencing this lncRNA in luminal A cell lines resulted in decreased cell viability and colony formation. These results highlight the relevance of the proposed method for the identification of lncRNAs in specific biological contexts.
