IgA Vasculitis Across the Ages: Is It Time for a Precision Medicine Approach?

ACR Open Rheumatology
IgA vasculitis (IgAV; formerly Henoch‐Schönlein purpura) is a systemic small vessel vasculitis most commonly affecting the skin, gut, joints, and kidneys.

Targeting transcription factors associated with hemoglobinopathies: Lessons from successful interventions and implications for cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the transcription factors, repressive chromatin‐modifying complexes, and epigenetic mechanisms that control fetal hemoglobin repression. Notably, many regulators of γ‐globin silencing also function in transcriptional and epigenetic networks that drive cancer, highlighting opportunities to translate advances in hemoglobinopathy ...

Comparison and combination of mutation and methylation-based urine tests for bladder cancer detection

Biomarker Research
Background and aims Several non-invasive tests for detecting bladder cancer (BC) are commercially available and are based on detecting small panels of BC-associated mutations and/or methylation changes in urine DNA. However, it is not clear which type of

Derivation and characterization of retinal pigment epithelium from urine‐derived iPSCs

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Age‐related macular degeneration causes vision loss via RPE dysfunction and loss. Traditional iPSC therapies rely on invasive biopsies, limiting scalability. Here, we utilize urine‐derived stem cells as an accessible source to generate u‐iPSCs, successfully differentiated into pigmented RPE. This “Urine‐to‐Retina” platform provides a promising path for

Development of an extended version of GALEAS bladder: Detection of FGFR3 fusions in urine and associations between genomic alterations and gene expression

Bladder Cancer
Background The latest bladder cancer (BC) urine tests based on multiple genomic and/or epigenomic markers detect BC with high sensitivity and specificity.

Intrinsic subtypes and bladder cancer metastasis

Asian Journal of Urology, 2016
Recent studies demonstrated that bladder cancers can be grouped into basal and luminal molecular subtypes that possess distinct biological and clinical characteristics.

From energy provision to protein synthesis: Tunnelling nanotubes as mediators of intercellular metabolic cooperation in cancer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The cytoskeleton‐mediated transport of mitochondria via tunnelling nanotubes restores respiration, increases ATP production, rescues cells from apoptosis, activates the AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, promotes cell migration and invasiveness, contributes to cancer progression and treatment resistance.

Avidin is evolutionarily conserved in fish but dispensable for development and resistance against Streptococcus agalactiae in zebrafish

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The presence of biotin‐binding avidin proteins in fish and their biological significance are poorly characterized. We cataloged fish avidins and demonstrate that they are widely present and evolutionarily conserved. We created avd knockout zebrafish and show that zebavidin is dispensable for development and that resistance of avd knockout embryos in ...

Is there a role for oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction in age-associated bladder disorders?

Tzu Chi Medical Journal, 2020
Millions of individuals worldwide are affected by age-related lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTSs), including impaired detrusor contractility, detrusor overactivity, decreased bladder sensation, as well as increased bladder capacity often resulting in ...

GAD65 Antibody ELISA With Extended Reportable Range: Validation and Guidance for Neurological Practice

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To (1) validate GAD65‐ELISA detection and quantification for type 1 diabetes mellitus and autoimmune neurological diagnoses, (2) correlate ELISA results (reference range < 5 IU/mL) with established radioimmunoprecipitation assay (RIA; ≤ 0.02 nmol/L), and (3) define ELISA clinical utility and pitfalls.
