A subset of sweet-sensing neurons identified by IR56d are necessary and sufficient for fatty acid taste. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2017
Fat represents a calorically potent food source that yields approximately twice the amount of energy as carbohydrates or proteins per unit of mass. The highly palatable taste of free fatty acids (FAs), one of the building blocks of fat, promotes food ...

Prediction of Myasthenia Gravis Worsening: A Machine Learning Algorithm Using Wearables and Patient‐Reported Measures

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a rare disorder characterized by fluctuating muscle weakness with potential life‐threatening crises. Timely interventions may be delayed by limited access to care and fragmented documentation. Our objective was to develop predictive algorithms for MG deterioration using multimodal telemedicine data ...

Clinically Relevant Outcome Measures in Women With Adrenoleukodystrophy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Adrenoleukodystrophy is a rare inherited peroxisomal disease caused by pathogenic variants in the ABCD1 gene located on the X chromosome. Although the most severe central nervous system and adrenal complications typically affect only men with adrenoleukodystrophy, the majority of women develop myeloneuropathy symptoms in adulthood.

Synthetic Nanobiology Actuated Lipometabolic Cell Factory for Autologous Tumor Immunotherapy

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
FA plays a crucial role in the interaction between tumor cells and the tumor microenvironment, especially for the immune response. A biocatalytic immunoenhancement strategy is developed to boost antitumor immunity by FA metabolic orientation to ceramide. Through the design of this delicate catalytic immunoenhancement strategy, the synthetic nanobiology

Enhancing Magnetic Hyperthermia at the Cell Membrane by Anchoring 92R‐Functionalized Magnetic Nanoparticles to Low‐Endocytic CCR9 Surface Receptors

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We present a strategy to enhance magnetic hyperthermia therapy by modulating nanoparticle–cell interactions. Antibody‐functionalized magnetic nanoparticles targeting the low‐internalizing CCR9 receptor enable spatially controlled membrane anchoring, reducing aggregation and maximizing heat generation under alternating magnetic fields.

Normal levels of serum corticosterone and hepatic glucocorticoid receptors in obese (fa/fa) rats

Bioscience Reports, 1987
In an attempt to understand the hyper-responsiveness to glucocorticoids that is characteristic of genetically obese fa/fa rats, we have measured the levels of free corticosterone in serum from lean and obese rats as well as the number of “cytosolic” and “nuclear” binding sites in livers of these rats. Both the lean and obese rats had similar amounts of

Dysfunctional TRIM31 of POMC Neurons Provokes Hypothalamic Injury and Peripheral Metabolic Disorder under Long‐Term Fine Particulate Matter Exposure

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Particulate matter ≤2.5 µm (PM2.5) elevates risks of neurological and chronic metabolic diseases, but the underlying mechanisms linking PM2.5‐induced central nervous system (CNS) injury to metabolic dysfunction remain unclear. Hypothalamic pro‐opiomelanocortin‐expressing (POMC+) neurons regulate systemic metabolic homeostasis, and tripartite motif ...

Hyperviscous Diabetic Bone Marrow Niche Impairs BMSCs Osteogenesis via TRPV2‐Mediated Cytoskeletal‐Nuclear Mechanotransduction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Diabetic bone marrow exhibits pathological ECM hyperviscosity that activates TRPV2‐mediated Ca2⁺ influx, leading to perinuclear F‐actin disassembly, nuclear deformation, and chromatin condensation. This cytoskeletal‐nuclear decoupling suppresses osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs.

PLA2G16‐Mediated Tetracosatetraenoic Acid Rewires Fatty Acid Oxidation to Impair CD8+ T Cell Immune Function in Promoting Breast Cancer Lung Metastasis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Illustrating how tumor‐derived PLA2G16 regulates tetracosatetraenoic acid (C24:4 (n‐6)) accumulation and CD8+ T cell activation via the C24:4‐PPARα‐FAO axis in early metastatic niches, thereby promoting lung metastasis of triple‐negative breast cancer.

Neuroprotection of photoreceptors by combined inhibition of both Fas and autophagy pathways in P23H mice

Cell Death and Disease
The P23H variant of rhodopsin (RHO) is a common cause of autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (adRP). Our previous data have shown that both the Fas (CD95) death receptor and hyperactivation of autophagy contribute to photoreceptor (PR) death in a ...
