Discovery of the Principal Cystic Fibrosis Mutation (F508del) in Ancient DNA from Iron Age Europeans [PDF]
The most common, life-threatening autosomal recessive disease of Europeans and Euro-Americans, cystic fibrosis (CF), occurs predominately in patients with the F508del mutation.1 Although F508del is currently detectable as a single allele in 1/30-1/40 ...

ABSTRACT In the last decades, critical advancements in research technology and knowledge on disease mechanisms steered therapeutic approaches for chronic inflammatory diseases towards unprecedented target specificity. For allergic and chronic lung diseases, biologic drugs pioneered this goal, acquiring on the way—through the clinical use of monoclonal ...

Intestinal Atresia in Finland: Maternal Risk Factors, Prevalence, Associated Anomalies and Survival
ABSTRACT Aim We aimed to investigate prevalence, associated anomalies and survival of congenital intestinal atresia and to examine maternal risk factors for jejunoileal atresia (JIA). Methods All children born with, or pregnancies terminated because of, JIA or colonic atresia (CA) in Finland during 1987–2019 were identified from the Finnish Register of

Revision of Madagascar's Dwarf Lemurs (Cheirogaleidae:Cheirogaleus): Designation of Species, Candidate Species Status and Geographic Boundaries Based on Molecular and Morphological Data [PDF]
The genus Cheirogaleus, the dwarf lemurs, is a radiation of strepsirrhine primates endemic to the island of Madagascar. The dwarf lemurs are taxonomically grouped in the family Cheirogaleidae (Infraorder: Lemuriformes) along with the genera Microcebus,

ABSTRACT Aim Children with cystic fibrosis (CF) face substantial daily treatment burdens and the effects of transmembrane conductance regulator modulators on these have not been sufficiently described. We evaluated changes in treatment burden after elexacaftor tezacaftor ivacaftor (ETI) was initiated.

Colliders and conformal interfaces
We set up a scattering experiment of matter against an impurity which separates two generic one-dimensional critical quantum systems. We compute the flux of reflected and transmitted energy, thus defining a precise measure of the transparency of the ...

The potential for biased signalling in the P2Y receptor family of GPCRs
The purinergic receptor family is primarily activated by nucleotides, and contains members of both the G protein coupled‐receptor (GPCR) superfamily (P1 and P2Y) and ligand‐gated ion channels (P2X). The P2Y receptors are widely expressed in the human body, and given the ubiquitous nature of nucleotides, purinergic signalling is involved with a plethora

Abstract Background and Purpose Guanylate cyclase‐C (GC‐C) is the receptor for endogenous (uro)guanylin peptides, bacterial toxins and pharmacological analogues. Receptor activation leads to intestinal fluid loss, but also activates an antiproliferative pathway and is a promising target in colorectal cancer therapy.
