Lysine Oxidation by LOXL2 in Single Strands Versus Triple Helices: Implications for Collagen‐Related Diseases

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The oxidation of Lys residues in proline‐rich single‐stranded collagen by LOXL2, a key enzyme for tissue maturation and linked to diseases, was revealed. Oxidation occurs at rates comparable to or higher than those of Lys in unstructured telopeptides, the well‐known native sites of Lysyl oxidase (LOX) activity.

A Novel Splice Variant in ERGIC1 Causes Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita—Characterization Using Urine‐Derived Cells

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is defined as the presence of joint contractures affecting at least two body regions at birth. Three different ERGIC1 variants have been reported in individuals with AMC. Here, we report on a 16‐year‐old male with a homozygous ERGIC1 c.250+1G>A variant that was classified as a variant of uncertain ...

Refining a preclinical model of viral myocarditis in accordance with biotech standards

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study aimed to refine a murine model of Coxsackievirus B3‐induced myocarditis by integrating dietary and imaging innovations to improve animal welfare, data quality, and clinical applicability. The refined diet significantly reduced animal health burden, reduced weight loss, and stabilized blood glucose during development of cardiac inflammation ...
