Mycobacterial cell division arrest and smooth‐to‐rough envelope transition using CRISPRi‐mediated genetic repression systems

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing and phenotypic exploration in nontuberculous mycobacteria. In this Research Protocol, we describe approaches to control, monitor, and quantitatively assess CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing in M. smegmatis and M. abscessus model organisms.

Promiscuous stimulation of HSP70 ATPase activity by parasite‐derived J‐domains

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum exports three highly homologous yet functionally divergent J‐domain proteins into human erythrocytes. Here, we show that J‐domains isolated from all three proteins effectively stimulate the ATPase activity of both endogenous host and exported parasite HSP70 chaperones.

Partial Coherence Laser Interferometry in Highly Myopic versus Emmetropic Eyes

Journal of Ophthalmic & Vision Research, 2014
Purpose: To investigate the reliability of partial coherence laser interferometry for optical biometry in highly myopic eyes. Methods: Axial length measurements by the IOLMaster (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Germany) with signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) ≥2 were ...

NR4A1 Exerts Pro‐Tumor Role in Glioblastoma via Inducing xCT/GPX4‐Regulated Ferroptosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose This study investigates NR4A1's paradoxical roles in glioblastoma (GBM) progression, focusing on its mechanistic link to ferroptosis regulation. We aimed to resolve conflicting reports of NR4A1 as both an oncogene and a tumor suppressor by defining its transcriptional control over xCT/GPX4‐mediated iron homeostasis and its clinical ...

Lesion Location and Functional Connections Reveal Cognitive Impairment Networks in Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Cognitive impairment, fatigue, and depression are common in multiple sclerosis (MS), potentially due to disruption of regional functional connectivity caused by white matter (WM) lesions. We explored whether WM lesions functionally connected to specific brain regions contribute to these MS‐related manifestations.

Age and initial spherical equivalent influence the axial length elongation in children aged 9–17 years undergoing orthokeratology therapy

BMC Ophthalmology
Background Orthokeratology (Ortho-K) lenses are increasingly used in children to manage myopia by reshaping the cornea and potentially influencing axial length changes.

Evaluation of load tracks and wear of two sets of bearings from space shuttle main engine high pressure oxygen turbopumps [PDF]

Bearings supporting the rotor in the High Pressure Oxygen Turbopump (HPOTP) were examined. The No. 1 bearings from both units were in good condition and had successfully completed 5000 seconds of operation. The No.

Systemic T Cell Receptor Profiling Reveals Adaptive Immune Activation and Potential Immune Signatures of Diagnosis and Brain Atrophy in Epilepsy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Epilepsy is increasingly associated with immune dysregulation and inflammation. The T cell receptor (TCR), a key mediator of adaptive immunity, shows repertoire alterations in various immune‐mediated diseases. The unique TCR sequence serves as a molecular barcode for T cells, and clonal expansion accompanied by reduced overall TCR ...

Axial eye length after retinal detachment surgery.

Collegium antropologicum, 2005
Changes in the eye axial diameter were studied to assess the eye globe impact of conventional operation for retinal detachment. The study included 69 eyes in 69 patients operated on for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. There were 46.4% of men and 53.6% of women, mean age 52.7 (+/- 15.21) years.

Domain Specific Placebo Response in the Modified Friedreich's Ataxia Rating Scale

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The placebo response in clinical trials in ataxias complicates outcome interpretation and potentially obscures genuine treatment effects. We analyzed placebo group data from past trials in Friedreich Ataxia and observed notable responses in appendicular items, in contrast to minimal changes in axial function, as measured by respective ...
