Abstract
The honeybee (Apis mellifera) is one of the most important pollinator species because it can gather resources from a vast variety of plant species, including both natives and introduced, across its geographical distribution. Although A. mellifera interacts with a large diversity of plants and shares resources with other pollinators, there are some plant species with which it interacts more frequently than others. Here, we evaluated the plant traits (i.e., plant length, abundance of bloomed individuals, number of open flowers, and stamen length) that would affect the honeybee visit frequencies to the flowers in a coastal environment in the Gulf of Mexico. Moreover, we evaluated which native bee species (and their body size) overlap floral resource with A. mellifera. We registered 998 plant-bee interactions between 35 plant species and 47 bee species. We observed that plant species with low height and with high abundances of bloomed individuals are positively related to a high frequency of visits by A. mellifera. Moreover, we found that A. mellifera tends to share a higher number of plant species with other bee species with a similar or smaller body size than with bigger species, which makes them a competitor for the resource with honeybees. Our results highlight that the impacts of A. mellifera on plants and native bees could be anticipated based on its individual's characteristics (i.e., plant height and abundance of bloomed individuals) and body size, respectively.

Abstract
Stingless bees (Meliponini) are a ubiquitous and diverse element of the pantropical melittofauna, and have significant cultural and economic importance. This review outlines their diversity, and provides identification keys based on external morphology, brief accounts for each of the recognized genera, and an updated checklist of all living and fossil species. In total there are currently 605 described extant species in 45 extant genera, and a further 18 extinct species in nine genera, seven of which are extinct. A new fossil genus, Adactylurina Engel, gen. nov., is also described for a species in Miocene amber from Ethiopia. In addition to the systematic review, the biology of stingless bees is summarized with an emphasis on aspects related to their nesting biology and architecture.

Abstract
Survival in multiple myeloma has improved significantly in recent years, especially in young patients. We reviewed the evolution of the survival of patients with MM in three groups based on age at MM diagnosis over three time periods between 1999 and 2020 at our 12 de Octubre Hospital institution (H12O). Then, to confirm our results, we used data from TriNetx, a global health research platform that includes patients from Europe to US. Finally, we analysed differences in the patterns of treatment between networks across the world. Kaplan‒Meier analysis was used to estimate survival probabilities, and between-group differences were tested using the log-rank test and hazard ratio. For patients from H12O, the median OS was 35.61, 55.59 and 68.67 months for the 1999-2009, 2010-2014 and 2015-2020 cohorts, respectively (p = 0.0001). Among all patients included in the EMEA network, the median OS was 20.32 months versus 34.75 months from 1999-2009 versus 2010-2014. The median OS from the 2010-2014 versus 2015-2020 time cohorts was 34.75 months versus 54.43 months, respectively. In relation to the US cohort, the median OS from before 2010 versus 2010-2014 was not reached in either time cohort and neither when comparing the 2010-2014 versus 2015-2019 time cohorts. Bortezomib is the most commonly used drug in the EMEA cohort, while lenalidomide is the most commonly used drug in the US cohort. This large-scale study based on real-world data confirms the previous finding that MM patients have increased their survival in the last two decades.

Abstract
Purpose of Review This systematic review comprehensively compared balloon kyphoplasty and vertebroplasty with respect to height restoration and pain relief. Recent Findings PRISMA guidelines were utilized to compare balloon kyphoplasty and vertebroplasty, focusing on the primary outcome of height restoration and the secondary outcomes of pain relief and functionality. A total of 33 randomized controlled trials were included; 20 reviewed balloon kyphoplasty, 7 reviewed vertebroplasty, and 6 compared vertebroplasty to balloon kyphoplasty. Both treatments restored some vertebral body height and showed benefits in pain reduction and improved patient-reported functionality. Summary Balloon kyphoplasty and vertebroplasty are effective treatments for vertebral compression fractures and this review suggests that balloon kyphoplasty may be favored for vertebral height restoration. Further studies are needed to conclude whether balloon kyphoplasty or vertebroplasty is superior for alleviating pain.

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has represented a major cause of morbidity/mortality worldwide, overstressing health systems. Multiple myeloma (MM) patients show an increased risk for infections and they are expected to be particularly vulnerable to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Here we have obtained a comprehensive picture of the impact of COVID-19 in MM patients on a local and a global scale using a federated data research network (TriNetX) that provided access to Electronic Medical Records (EMR) from Health Care Organizations (HCO) all over the world. Through propensity score matched analyses we found that the number of new diagnoses of MM was reduced in 2020 compared to 2019 (RR 0.86, 95%CI 0.76-0.96) and the survival of newly diagnosed MM cases decreased similarly (HR 0.61, 0.38-0.81). MM patients showed higher risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection (RR 2.09, 1.58-2.76) and a higher excess mortality in 2020 (difference in excess mortality 9%, 4.4-13.2) than non-MM patients. By interrogating large EMR datasets from HCO in Europe and globally, we confirmed that MM patients have been more severely impacted by COVID-19 pandemic than non-MM patients. This study highlights the necessity of extending preventive measures worlwide to protect vulnerable patients from SARS-CoV-2 infection by promoting social distancing and an intensive vaccination strategies.

Abstract
Drawing on the evolution of socio-geographical imaginaries of scholarly journals published in Chile, this article provides a picture of the socio-historical trajectories of internationalization of scholarly journals and communities in that part of the (semi-)periphery of science. In order to break with the presentism of many contemporary discussions, the analysis covers a relatively long period of time, from the end of the nineteenth century until the first decades of the twenty-first century. However, based on an inductive analysis of the journals, the article particularly focuses on the rise of nationalist and regionalist orientations in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and the intensification of the pressures for internationalization in more recent decades. Building on the findings, the article concludes highlighting key elements and making some general observations on the internationalization processes in the semi-periphery of science.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Objetive this article narrates the process of institutionalisation of history as a worthy subject for nursing in Chile. Method this is a discussion paper that reflects on the characteristics, resources and potential of the network as well as the future agenda to achieve its consolidation. Results there is an increasing interest in learning history in Chile. Although recent and somewhat disconnected from larger contemporary debates, this initiative can fruitfully contribute to the nursing curriculum in the country. Likewise, the growing interest in social and cultural history becomes apparent, seeking to understand different social realities that inform nursing. Conclusion the Chilean Network of Nursing History has come to put history forward as a transformative approach for the nursing community. Its short-term contribution to identity-building and professional empowerment can further enlighten the understanding of broader societal processes such as the differentiation of women’s work in the public sphere. It is important to strengthen its institutionalization in academe and connect research topics with local, national and global histories as well as history collaborations elsewhere, so as to develop agendas, epistemic communities and methods. Nonetheless, this process is marking a turning point in nursing discourses and scholarship in the country.

Abstract
Sexual signaling is an important reproductive barrier known to evolve early during the formation of new species, but the genetic mechanisms that facilitate the divergence of sexual signals remain elusive. Here we isolate a gene linked to the rapid evolution of a signaling trait in a pair of nascent neotropical orchid bee lineages, Euglossa dilemma and E. viridissima. Male orchid bees acquire chemical compounds from their environment to concoct species-specific perfumes to later expose during courtship. We find that the two lineages acquire chemically distinct perfumes and are reproductively isolated despite low levels of genome-wide differentiation. Remarkably, variation in perfume chemistry coincides with rapid divergence in few odorant receptor (OR) genes. Using functional assays, we demonstrate that the derived variant of Or41 in E. dilemma is specific towards its species-specific major perfume compound, whereas the ancestral variant in E. viridissima is broadly tuned to multiple odorants. Our results show that OR evolution likely played a role in the divergence of sexual communication in natural populations.

Background
Detection of symptoms in geriatric population with aortic stenosis (AS) is challenging, especially when they associate other comorbidities or frailty. Left ventricular global longitudinal strain (GLS) occurs before left ventricular ejection fraction impairment and could be useful for risk stratification and management of these patients.
Purpose
We sought to analyze the usefulness of GLS for predicting major cardiovascular adverse events (MACEs) in geriatric patients with asymptomatic severe AS.
Material and Methods:
Prospective study on 54 patients older than 70 years old with severe asymptomatic AS. Patient evaluation included biochemistry tests, electrocardiogram and echocardiography. We use a GLS cut-off point of 18% to dichotomize patients. Outcomes were defined as the composite of MACEs – occurrence of death from any cause, hospitalization for heart failure, appearance of symptoms or change in treatment.
Results
The mean age was 83.2 ± 7.1, with 60.4% of women. 24.5% showed atrial fibrillation. At 6 months of follow-up, 33% of patients reached the endpoint: 5.6% CHF, 11.1% death, 3.7% symptoms without changes in management and 13% were referred to an invasive treatment. The event-free survival rate at 6 months for the global population was 83%. 41.5 % of the subjects had GLS < 18%. Kaplan Meier analysis showed that the probability of freedom from MACEs was not significant in patients with lower GLS (Log Rank p = 0.39). In the multivariate analysis only AVA was an inverse predictor of events (AVA) HR 0.05 (95% CI 0.007- 0.471, p < 0.05).
Conclusions
The value of GLS was not a predictor of short term events in geriatric patients. Only assessment of AVA was an independent marker of MACES and in this kind of subjects.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The carcinoid syndrome is characterized by extensive and several clinical manifestations. The diarrhea, the cutaneous flushing are the most frequents symptoms while cardiac manifestations (carcinoid heart disease) (CHD) occurs in a mean of 40%. Nowadays, the number of cases of CHD is lower than 20%, as a consequence of the widespread use of somatostatin analogues. At present, there is a mean delay in diagnosis of CHD of 1.5 years from the time of carcinoid syndrome detection. Hence, CHD is associated with a poor prognosis for clinical management.
Case report
We present a case of 45-years-old active woman, with Thrombocytopenia absent radius (TAR). This is characterized by a bilateral absence of the radio with the presence of both thumbs and thrombocytopenia. Our patient was attended for dyspnea of medium efforts, history of diarrhea, cutaneous flushing with tachycardia and elevated urinary 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) (89,6 mg/24 (2,0-9,0)). The Transthoracic echocardiography showed morphologic changes that affected the tricuspid valve: diminished curvature of the leaflets, altered dynamic motion of the leaflets during diastole, fused and shortened chordae retraction and reduced excursion of the valve. A moderate to severe tricuspid regurgitation and tricuspid stenosis with gradient media de 5 mmHg was observed. In addition, the right ventricle was dilated, a severe pulmonary hypertension, a right pleural effusion and a minor pericardial effusion circumference were detected. All these findings were consistent with CHD.
Conclusions
This report describes an unusual case of CHD in TAR patient. In fact, the interest of this case is the role played by the echocardiogram in the differential diagnosis for tricuspid valve diseases. Tricuspid stenosis is an infrequent condition and it is usually related with rheumatic disease associated with mitral valve disease. Although the carcinoid syndrome is infrequent, any changes in the anatomical structure of the tricuspid valve (thickening, fibrosis and rigidity associated with stenosis and tricuspid regurgitation) should alert us to the suspicion of CHD

Introduction
Familial dilated cardiomyopathy (fDCM) represents 20% to 30% of idiopathic DCM (iDCM) ethiology. The assessment of cardiac function of these patients is awfully complex. Usually, myocardial fiber damages can not be detected in the early DCM stages. In this sense echocardiogram could be useful to detect incipient changes.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to characterize the systolic function of asymptomatic fDCM, compared within iDCM and control patients.
Material and methods
This study was carried out in 33 fDCM patients. A total of 4 fDCM families with LMNA gene mutation and 3 fDCM families with BLC2-associated athanogene 3 (BAG3) mutation were recruited. Moreover, a total of 30 iDCM and 66 healthy matched controls were enrolled in the study.
Results
58.14% were male. The average age was 45.3 ± 17 years. 72% showed sinus rhythm. Left bundle branch block (LBBB) was observed in 7.8% of patients. The LV ejection fraction (LVEF), sphericity index and mitral annular plane systolic excursion (MAPSE), were significantly improved in the fDCM patients compared to iDCM subjects. However, these parameters were aggravated compared with healthy controls. LVEF was enhanced in fDCM in contrast to iDCM (56% versus 35%; P < 0.001). Nevertheless, LVEF value was deteriorated in fDCM compared to healthy controls (56% versus 65%; P < 0.001). The values of septal and lateral annulus early diastolic velocity measured by DTI, were also diminished. All results are presented in Table 1.
Conclusions
Asymptomatic fDCM shown an intermediate value of LVEF between the iDCM and the control group. This ventricular remodeling process could be the consequence of a slight increase in the end-systolic diameter.

Abstract
We determined the presence of six viruses in different bee species collected in subtropical environments. Deformed wing virus (DWV) and black queen cell virus (BQCV) were detected in >90% of honey bee samples and in 50-100% of four stingless bee, two bumble bee and one solitary bee species. Additionally, minus DWV and BQCV RNA strands were detected, indicating that the viruses replicate in several hosts. This is the first report of honey bee viruses replicating in six wild bee species in the tropics. If pathogenic to them, viral infections could result in negative impacts in agricultural and unmanaged ecosystems.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Preclinical diastolic dysfunction PDD is a well-known but poorly understood risk factor for clinical heart failure CHF. Preclinical diastolic dysfunction and predictors of progression of PDD to CHF in patients with malignancy has never been studied.
Purpose
The purpose of our study was to determine the incidence of CHF in cancer patients who have preexisting preclinical diastolic dysfunction, with a particular focus on identifying the risk factors contributing to progression of PDD to CHF.
Study design
We retrospectively sought all the patients who underwent echocardiography from 2003 to 2008 and were found to have preclinical diastolic dysfunction at our institution. PDD was defined as presence of grade I diastolic dysfunction, LVEF ≥50%, and free of clinical diagnosis of heart failure. Of these, only the patients who had a confirmed histopathological diagnosis of malignancy were included in the study. The end point was incidence of clinical heart failure, HFrEF and HFpEF. Multivariable adjusted Cox proportional hazards regression were performed to study the predictors of CHF.
Results
Out of 1086 patients with PDD and a histopathological diagnosis of malignancy, 208 patients were diagnosed with new onset CHF during the 10 years follow-up. Incidence of CHF, HFpEF and HFrEF was found to be 32.1 per 1,000 person-year, 13.9 per 1,000 person-year and 2.93 per 1,000 person-year respectively. Patients who developed clinical heart failure were found to have more hypertension, diabetes, myocardial infarction, peripheral vascular disease, pulmonary disease, renal disease, hematological malignancies and metastatic disease when compared to patients who did not develop heart failure. In multivariable adjusted Cox regression analysis, age at index date (HR 1.02, 95% CI 1.01–1.04, p=0.001), diabetes (HR 1.74, 95% CI 1.28–2.35, p<0.001), myocardial infarction (HR 2.19, 95% CI 1.49–3.20, p<0.001), lung disease (HR 1.53, 95% CI 1.14–2.06, p=0.004) and renal disease (HR 2.03, 95% CI 1.45–2.84, p<0.001) were independent predictors of CHF in patients with PDD and malignancy. Among chemotherapy agents, Vincristine, Ifosfamide, transtuzumab and Bortezomib were found to be associated with CHF.
Conclusion
This is the first study ever to report the incidence of CHF, HFrEF and HFpEF and identify a distinct set of predictors of heart failure in patients with PDD and malignancy. We estimated a much higher incidence of CHF (19%) in our study population, when compared to the general population with malignancy. Our study also depicted a significantly high incidence of HFpEF compared to HFrEF (8.3% vs 1.75%). Our study shows that patients with malignancy are at a significantly higher risk of developing heart failure if they have preexisting diastolic dysfunction. This emphasizes the importance of identifying patients with diastolic dysfunction and a more rigorous cardiovascular surveillance to prevent them from potential heart failure.

Abstract
El presente número de Avances en Enfermería se despliega en medio de un clima de transición. Asistimos a una evidente reformulación de las narrativas profesionales, luego de varias décadas de un énfasis notorio en lo monoprofesional, a un compás marcado por la institucionalización de la disciplina de enfermería en la región. Para efectos de este editorial, emplearé el térmi-no ‘institucionalización’ (1) como la organización de departamentos de enfermería en universida-des, la producción de doctores/as en enfermería, la realización regular de congresos disciplinares y la creación de revistas académicas en el rubro. Este proceso de institucionalización sirve a dos propó-sitos: facilita la creación de enfoques que permi-ten orientar y fortalecer el carácter científico de la práctica, y hace posible instalar la enfermería como disciplina dentro del sistema científico. En lengua-je sociológico, diríamos que esto corresponde a un proceso continuo de diferenciación (2) desde otros marcos epistémicos (v. g. medicina, sociolo-gía, psicología), aunque como el debate sobre teori-zación en enfermería ha dejado de manifiesto, la disciplina enfermera es un campo ecléctico en que convergen otras varias disciplinas. No es un campo puramente social (v. g. los tejidos y humores corpo-rales existen y se trabaja con ellos); pero tampoco es puramente biológico (v. g. los tejidos y humores corporales en ausencia del individuo no tendrían sentido en el ethos de la enfermería).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Honey bees are associated with gut microorganisms essential for their nutrition and health. The composition of the microbial community can be used as a biological health indicator and is characterized using biomarker fatty acids. Commonly, gut microorganisms are exposed to pathogens and to an array of chemical and biological pest control methods. RESULTS We found a strong negative effect on microbial gut community composition when exposed to the bee pest control chemicals oxytetracycline, oxalic acid and imidacloprid, and when inoculated with the bee pest Nosema spp. and the potential bee pest biocontrol agent Lactobacillus plantarum. Results from the in vitro test with bee pest chemicals showed a differential response of Lactobacillus spp. At the community level, some taxonomic groups were more affected depending on treatment, but sharp changes in the microbial structure were caused by compounds generally considered as bee safe. CONCLUSION Our results show that pests such as Nosema spp. and pest control methods alter the composition of bee gut microorganisms, which may have severe consequences for pathogen defense, physiology and general honey bee health. In addition, L. plantarum has potential as a biocontrol agent against Nosema spp. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Pharmacologically targeting the HER2 oncoprotein provides clinical benefit for patients with HER2-amplified cancers. However, a significant number of patients do not respond to the currently approved HER2-targeted therapies, despite carrying the HER2-alteration. Small molecule inhibitors of HER2, that target other receptor tyrosine kinases such as EGFR (i.e. lapatinib), are approved and provide some clinical benefit but are often associated with increased toxicity. Tucatinib (ARRY-380) is an orally available, potent, highly selective small molecule inhibitor of the HER2 kinase. In this study, we assessed the in vitroand in vivoactivity of tucatinib, relative to approved HER2-targeting molecules, in a panel of molecularly characterized breast cancer cell lines.
Materials and Methods:The growth inhibitory activity of tucatinib, trastuzumab and lapatinib were evaluated in a panel of 48 breast cancer cell lines molecularly characterized at baselineby genomic (array-CGH) and proteomic (Reverse Phase Protein Array; RPPA) profiling. IC50values for tucatinib and lapatinibwere determined from direct cell counts using a Cellavista Cell Imaging System. Trastuzumab activity was measured as % inhibition of cell growth at fixed concentrations. In vivoefficacy of tucatinib was assessed in cell line xenograft models of HER2+/ER- and HER2+/ER+ breast cancers as a single agent or in combination with targeted therapies for breast cancer.
Results: A broad range of IC50values (3.2nM to >10μM), was seen for tucatinib with a high degree of selectivity for the HER2-amplfied sub-type. High levels of total and phosphorylated HER2 (pHER2) accompanied by high levels of pEGFR and pHER3 enriched for sensitivity to tucatinib, confirming that HER2-driven cancers may be uniquely sensitive to tucatinib. The response profile for lapatinib was less clean, with responses also observed in HER2-low/EGFR-high cell lines. Sensitivity to tucatinib was also observed in HER2-amplified cell lines that were either de novoor acquired resistant to trastuzumab. Single agent tucatinib induced tumor regressions in a xenograft model of HER2+/ER+ breast cancer. Tumor regressions were further enhanced by combination with trastuzumab. The combination of tucatinib plus trastuzumab was as efficacious and better tolerated than trastuzumab plus docetaxel or trastuzumab plus pertuzumab plus docetaxel. The triple combination of tucatinib plus hormonal blockade (fulvestrant) and CDK4/6 inhibition (abemaciclib) also induced robust tumor regressions, without significant body weight loss.
Discussion: These preclinical data highlight the potential of the HER2-selective small molecule inhibitor, tucatinib, to provide benefit to patients with HER2-amplifed cancers. Furthermore, our biomarker analysis of response to tucatinib has identified a HER2-driven signature within the HER2-amplfied sub-type that selects for sensitivity to tucatinib. Selecting patients based on this profile may further enrich for individuals most likely to benefit from tucatinib-based therapies.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Recent advances in the field of cancer immunotherapy have increased demand for reliable preclinical models to inform patient selection and rational drug combination strategies. The development of the bone marrow-liver-thymus (BLT) mouse may provide the opportunity to study the complex interactions of human tumor and host immune systems in vivo. Other models are limited by the rapid onset of graft versus host disease (GVHD) and a lack of orderly maturation and trafficking of human T and B cells. In BLT mice, implantation of human fetal liver and thymus fragments beneath the kidney capsule of NSG (NOD/SCID/IL-2RΥ-/-) mice followed by engraftment of matched ex vivoexpanded CD34+ cells supports the production of an almost complete human immune system. In this study, we used this model to assess the efficacy of the anti-PD-1 therapeutic antibody, nivolumab, in combination with targeted therapeutics in specific breast cancer sub-types.
Materials and Methods: For triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), the activity of nivolumab was assessed in combination with the PARP1/2 inhibitor, talazoparib, in humanized BLT mice. Xenografts were established by subcutaneous injection of 5.0x106MDA-231 (TNBC) cells. Mice (n=5) were randomized into treatment groups as follows; 1) Vehicle control (PBS), 2) nivolumab (10mg/kg QW), 3) talazoparib (0.33mg/kg Q5/2D) and 4) nivolumab+talazoparib. After 21 days of treatment, tumor tissue, serum and PBMCs were collected for biomarker analysis.
Results: Successful reconstitution of mature human T and B cells was confirmed in BLT mice 12-weeks post engraftment of donor tissue and CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells. MDA-231 cells injected subcutaneously into the flank of these mice formed palpable tumors (150-200mm3) within 9 days of injection. For vehicle control treated mice, tumors grew (2.5-fold) throughout the 21-day study. Single agent nivolumab induced significant tumor growth inhibition (TGI) relative to vehicle control treated mice at Day 21. Single agent talazoparib also induced comparable levels of TGI as did the combination of nivolumab plus talazoparib. Nivolumab treated mice continued to gain weight throughout the study without overt signs of toxicity. Reversible weight loss was observed in the talazoparib and combination treated arms. Overt signs of GVHD were not observed in any of these animals. Preliminary tissue analysis identified high levels of cell surface PD-L1 protein in control treated MDA-231 xenografts. Further analysis of the treated tumors will provide valuable insight into the mechanism of action of this class of molecule. We are establishing xenograft models of hormone receptor (ER+) positive breast cancer to measure the activity of nivolumab+/-CDK4/6-inhibition in humanized BLT mice and these data will also be presented.
Discussion: The data presented here highlight the potential of the PD-1 antibody nivolumab to have activity in TNBC. Furthermore, these findings illustrate the potential of the humanized BLT-mouse to model responses to immune check-point in the preclinical setting. Expanded use of this model may help to identify response biomarkers and inform design of combination therapies using immune oncology molecules and approved targeted therapies.

Abstract
Orchid bees are a conspicuous component of the neotropical bee fauna, with a few species reaching the northernmost natural distribution for the group in northwestern continental Mexico. Among them, Euglossa viridissima Friese is here reported for the first time in the Cape Region of the Baja California peninsula, Mexico, where no species of the group have been found previously. These records are presented, their biogeographical implications discussed, and some interpretations of the local factors that influence the bees is presented.

Abstract
Traditional tropical agriculture often entails a form of slash-and-burn land management that may adversely affect ecosystem services such as pollination, which are required for successful crop yields. The Yucatán Peninsula of Mexico has a >4000 year history of traditional slash-and-burn agriculture, termed 'milpa'. Hot 'Habanero' chilli is a major pollinator-dependent crop that nowadays is often grown in monoculture within the milpa system.We studied 37 local farmers' chilli fields (sites) to evaluate the effects of landscape composition on bee communities. At 11 of these sites, we undertook experimental pollination treatments to quantify the pollination of chilli. We further explored the relationships between landscape composition, bee communities and pollination service provision to chilli.Bee species richness, particularly species of the family Apidae, was positively related to the amount of forest cover. Species diversity decreased with increasing proportion of crop land surrounding each sampling site. Sweat bees of the genus Lasioglossum were the most abundant bee taxon in chilli fields and, in contrast to other bee species, increased in abundance with the proportion of fallow land, gardens and pastures which are an integral part of the milpa system.There was an average pollination shortfall of 21% for chilli across all sites; yet the shortfall was unrelated to the proportion of land covered by crops. Rather, chilli pollination was positively related to the abundance of Lasioglossum bees, probably an important pollinator of chilli, as well indirectly to the proportion of fallow land, gardens and pastures that promote Lasioglossum abundance. Synthesis and applications. Current, low-intensity traditional slash-and-burn (milpa) agriculture provides Lasioglossum spp. pollinators for successful chilli production; fallow land, gardens and pasture therefore need to be valued as important habitats for these and related ground-nesting bee species. However, the negative impact of agriculture on total bee species diversity highlights how agricultural intensification is likely to reduce pollination services to crops, including chilli. Indeed, natural forest cover is vital in tropical Yucatán to maintain a rich assemblage of bee species and the provision of pollination services for diverse crops and wild flowers.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Genetic and epigenetic alterations in the PI3K/mTOR and cyclin D:CDK-4/6:Rb signaling axes occur frequently in breast cancer and have been attributed to resistance to both ER- and HER2-directed therapeutics. Pharmacologically targeting CDK-4/6 in combination with hormonal blockade provides clinical benefit in patients with advanced ER+ breast cancer. In this study, we evaluated the activity of the pan-class I PI3K inhibitor, copanlisib (BAY-80-6946), with potent alpha and delta activity as a single agent or in combination with CDK-4/6 inhibition and hormonal blockade in a panel of breast cancer cell lines.
Methods: The growth inhibitory activity of copanlisib was evaluated against a large panel of 48 breast cancer cell lines molecularly characterized by genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic profiling. IC50 values were determined from direct cell counts using a Z1-particle counter. The activity of copanlisib in combination with hormone blockade and CDK-4/6 inhibition, by palbociclib, was assessed in two cell line xenograft models of ER+ breast cancer; MCF7(PIK3CA-E545K) and ZR751(PIK3CA WT). For xenograft studies, tumor bearing mice were treated once weekly (BID) by intravenous injection with clinically achievable doses of copanlisib (10 mg/kg) as single agent or in combination with tamoxifen or fulvestrant with or without 75 mg/kg daily palbociclib for 21 days.
Results: A broad range of IC50 values (0.491-895 nM), with a high degree of separation between sensitive and resistant histologically defined subgroups were determined for copanlisib, indicating the potential for a wide therapeutic window. Luminal subtype, the presence of activating mutations in PIK3CA, high levels of ER, HER2, HER3 and EGFR protein enriched for sensitivity to copanlisib. Activating mutations of KRAS and BRAF were associated with resistance to copanlisib. Single agent copanlisib induced significant tumor growth inhibition (TGI) relative to vehicle control in each of the xenograft models. Modest increases in anti-tumor activity were achieved when copanlisib was combined with hormonal blockade by either tamoxifen or fulvestrant. However, robust tumor regressions were observed with the triple combinations of copanlisib-palbociclib-tamoxifen and copanlisib-palbociclib-fulvestrant. Furthermore, these triple combinations achieved a statistically significant improvement in anti-tumor activity over the standard of care combination of palbociclib plus fulvestrant. Each of the single agent and treatment combinations tested were well tolerated in animals.
Discussion: These preclinical data illustrate the potent and selective activity of the pan class I PI3K inhibitor copanlisib in luminal breast cancers and support the clinical investigation of copanlisib in combination with CDK-4/6 inhibition and hormonal blockade in ER+ breast cancer.
