Exome sequencing identifies novel and known mutations in families with intellectual disability
Background Intellectual disability (ID) is a phenotypically and genetically heterogeneous disorder. Methods In this study, genome wide SNP microarray and whole exome sequencing are used for the variant identification in eight Pakistani families with ID ...

Optimal energy management of water networks under quality conditions
Abstract In the context of sustainability, which has become fundamental today, we aim to optimize (reduce) the energy consumption due to the use of pumps that bring water from all the different reservoirs to the nodes of the distribution network. The proposed model allows us, thanks to the use of smart meters and new 5G technologies, to determine the ...

A novel therapeutic strategy for pancreatic neoplasia using a novel RNAi platform targeting PDX-1 [PDF]
Bi-functional shRNA (bi-shRNA), a novel RNA interference (RNAi) effector platform targeting PDX-1 utilizing a systemic DOTAP-Cholesterol delivery vehicle, was studied in three mouse models of progressive pancreatic neoplasia.

This study demonstrates a cuproptosis mechanism involving nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH)‐reductive stress in neural cells. Copper activates dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase under mitochondrial pH, accumulating NADH. Copper also induces mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening, facilitating NADH translocation to the cytosol and ...

Purpose Distal myopathies are rare neuromuscular disorders, among which GNE myopathay (also known as Nonaka myopathy) results from autosomal recessive mutations in the GNE [glucosamine (UDP-N-acetyl)-2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase] gene, while ...

Establishment and Characterization of MCA23, a Novel Mouse Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma Cell Line
ABSTRACT Introduction Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is an aggressive type of malignancy. Recent advancements have highlighted the importance of the tumor immune microenvironment in therapeutic responses and prognosis. However, the lack of a mouse‐derived ICC cell line and current mouse models limit explorations of the TME in ICC.

Fighting the Cause of Alzheimer’s and GNE Myopathy
Age is the common risk factor for both neurodegenerative and neuromuscular diseases. Alzheimer disease (AD), a neurodegenerative disorder, causes dementia with age progression while GNE myopathy (GNEM), a neuromuscular disorder, causes muscle ...

Mining for novel candidate clock genes in the circadian regulatory network [PDF]
Background Most physiological processes in mammals are temporally regulated by means of a master circadian clock in the brain and peripheral oscillators in most other tissues. A transcriptional-translation feedback network of clock genes produces near 24
