Diabetes‐induced vascular calcification is associated with low pyrophosphate and its oral supplementation prevents calcification in diabetic mice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Induction of diabetes in three different mouse strains uniformly resulted in an increase in TNAP activity and a reduction in pyrophosphate (PPi) in the circulation. Inhibition of TNAP restored plasma PPi. Diabetes‐induced calcification in the media layer of the aorta was detected only in the Abcc6−/− strain, which is predisposed to ectopic ...

Does a history of sickle cell disease affect the prescription of morphine? An international, randomised study based on clinical vignettes conducted among emergency physicians

open access: yesBMJ Open
Objectives To assess whether emergency physicians prescribe morphine differently for patients with or without sickle cell disease (SCD). Given the difficulty of comparing strictly homogeneous patients in real clinical settings, we used a standardised ...

Analysis of Treacher Collins syndrome 4‐associated mutations in Schizosaccharomyces pombe

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Fission yeast models carrying Treacher Collins syndrome type 4‐associated mutations reveal that impaired processivity of RNA polymerase I leads to defective rRNA transcription. This study highlights the essential role of a conserved arginine residue in Pol I elongation and provides mechanistic insight into the pathogenesis of ribosomopathies.

DDX3X induces mesenchymal transition of endothelial cells by disrupting BMPR2 signaling

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Elevated DDX3X expression led to downregulation of BMPR2, a key regulator of endothelial homeostasis and function. Our co‐immunoprecipitation assays further demonstrated a molecular interaction between DDX3X and BMPR2. Notably, DDX3X promoted lysosomal degradation of BMPR2, thereby impairing its downstream signaling and facilitating endothelial‐to ...

“The more you learn, the more you can influence”—learning circles to support citizen science in Parkinson's disease: a pilot study in Sweden

open access: yesFrontiers in Public Health
IntroductionParkinson's disease (PD) is the fastest growing neurological condition, making it a public health concern. There is still much to be learned about this complex disease, and citizen science–the involvement of the public in scientific research ...

TMC4 localizes to multiple taste cell types in the mouse taste papillae

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Transmembrane channel‐like 4 (TMC4), a voltage‐dependent chloride channel, plays a critical role in amiloride‐insensitive salty taste transduction. TMC4 is broadly expressed in all mature taste cell types, suggesting a possible involvement of multiple cell types in this pathway.

Point of care ultrasonography of quadriceps femoris muscle thickness for assessing nutritional status in critically ill children

open access: yesScientific Reports
Muscle wasting occurs early during critical illness. It is associated with poor PICU outcomes. Ultrasonography can detect muscle thickness in critically ill children.

Hospital burden of critical illness across global settings: a point prevalence and cohort study in Malawi, Sri Lanka and Sweden

open access: yesBMJ Global Health
Introduction The burden of critical illness may have been underestimated. Previous analyses have used data from intensive care units (ICUs) only, and there is a lack of evidence about where in hospitals critically ill patients receive care.
