FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

Frontiers in MedicineLeber congenital amaurosis (LCA) is the most common genetic cause of congenital visual impairment in infants and children. Patients with LCA who harbor RPE65 mutations exhibit a deficiency in photoreceptor rhodopsin, leading to severe night blindness and

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

Spinal muscular atrophy in the era of newborn screening: how the classification could change
Frontiers in NeurologySpinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is an autosomal recessive neuromuscular disease caused by deletions or mutations in the Survival Motor Neuron 1 gene, associated with high morbidity and mortality related to muscle weakness. In recent years, the availability

Gene Replacement Therapy for Inborn Errors of Purine Metabolism
Cold Spring Harbor Symposia on Quantitative Biology, 1986 Effective retroviral vectors carrying the human HPRT and ADA genes have been described. Initial characterization of the retroviral gene transfer system using the HPRT vector allowed the delineation of several parameters important in viral titer, expression, and stability.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.
