Brain iron deposition and cognitive decline in patients with cerebral small vessel disease : a quantitative susceptibility mapping study

open access: yesAlzheimer’s Research & Therapy
Background Quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) can study the susceptibility values of brain tissue which allows for noninvasive examination of local brain iron levels in both normal and pathological conditions. Purpose Our study compares brain iron

Characterisation of the role played by ELMO1, GPR141 and the intergenic polymorphism rs918980 in Fuchs' dystrophy in the Indian population

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study reports the upregulation of ELMO1 and GPR141 in human Fuchs' endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) corneal endothelium and ultraviolet A‐induced FECD mice model. A genetic association of an intergenic single nucleotide polymorphism rs918980 present between both genes is observed with FECD in the Indian population.

Neural and hormonal mechanisms of appetite regulation during eating

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition
Numerous animal and clinical studies have demonstrated that the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus, a central regulator of appetite, plays a significant role in modulating feeding behavior.

Alkane biosynthesis gene expression and its increased production in recombinant cyanobacteria

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The transcription and mRNA structures of the alkane biosynthesis genes ado/aar were analysed in the representative cyanobacteria PCC 6803 and SK1‐2‐1, which produce C17H36 and C15H32, respectively. PCC 6803 transconjugants carrying these genes showed a 1.8‐ to 2.3‐fold increase in C17H36 production.

Positive feedback loop between MAPK and aquaporin 7 regulates autophagy and apoptosis induced by palmitate in RIN‐m5f cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
T2DM is characterized by peripheral blood insulin resistance and progressive pancreatic β‐cell dysfunction. Here, we showed that AQP7, the only aquaglyceroporin protein, regulates autophagy and apoptosis in pancreatic β‐cells. We propose the existence of a positive feedback loop between MAPK signaling and AQP7 that regulates autophagy and apoptosis in ...

Cognitive impairment and amygdala subregion volumes in elderly with cerebral small vessel disease: A large prospective cohort study

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease
Although the amygdala is associated with cognitive impairment resulting from cerebral small vessel disease, the relationship between alterations in amygdala structure and cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) remains controversial. Given that the amygdala

Development and validation of a diagnostic model for cerebral small vessel disease among rural older adults in China

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology
ObjectivesCerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) visible on MRI can be asymptomatic. We sought to develop and validate a model for detecting CSVD in rural older adults.MethodsThis study included 1,192 participants in the MRI sub-study within the ...

Enhancing transporter activity in heterologous expression systems with SAHA: a 2500‐times more potent and odorless alternative to butyrate

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Heterologous expression of membrane transporters in cultured cells is essential for functional characterization, but is sometimes limited by low activity. Our study compares the HDAC inhibitors butyrate, VPA and SAHA to enhance transport activity. We propose to replace butyrate by SAHA: it is equally effective, devoid of repulsive odor, costs less, and
