Long-term outcome of interstitial lung disease in patients with primary Sjögren’s syndrome: a retrospective observational study [PDF]

The Korean Journal of Internal Medicine
Background/Aims Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a potentially serious but underdiagnosed manifestation of primary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS). This observational study investigated the prevalence and clinical course of ILD in pSS, together with ...

Immune and Inflammatory Pathways in Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH). An update [PDF]

, 2019
Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), also known as fatty liver disease (FLD), is a major public health problem. It is considered to be the hepatic manifestation of the metabolic syndrome.

Imeglimin attenuates liver fibrosis by inhibiting vesicular ATP release from hepatic stellate cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Imeglimin, at clinically relevant concentrations, inhibits vesicular ATP accumulation and release from hepatic stellate cells, thereby attenuating purinergic signaling and reducing fibrogenic activation. This mechanism reveals a newly identified antifibrotic action of imeglimin beyond glycemic control.

Peripheral blood gene expression reveals an inflammatory transcriptomic signature in Friedreich's ataxia patients. [PDF]

, 2018
Transcriptional changes in Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA), a rare and debilitating recessive Mendelian neurodegenerative disorder, have been studied in affected but inaccessible tissues-such as dorsal root ganglia, sensory neurons and cerebellum-in animal ...

RAD50 missense variants differentially affect the DNA damage response and mitotic progression

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
RAD50 incorporates into the MRN complex and initiates the DNA damage response. Furthermore, RAD50 promotes mitotic progression. RAD50 missense variants capable of forming an MRN complex supported the DNA damage response and mitotic features to different extents in complementation experiments, indicating these functions are separable and might impact ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Plasmodium falciparum gametogenesis essential protein 1 (GEP1) is a transmission‐blocking target

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study shows Plasmodium falciparum GEP1 is vital for activating sexual stages of malarial parasites even independently of a mosquito factor. Knockout parasites completely fail gamete formation even when a phosphodiesterase inhibitor is added. Two single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (V241L and S263P) are found in 12%–20% of field samples.

Design of the Subpopulations and Intermediate Outcome Measures in COPD (SPIROMICS) AIR Study. [PDF]

, 2017
IntroductionPopulation-based epidemiological evidence suggests that exposure to ambient air pollutants increases hospitalisations and mortality from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), but less is known about the impact of exposure to air ...
