Abstract Background and Purpose Alcohol abuse and affective disorders are severe comorbid psychiatric diseases characterized by impaired brain synaptic transmission. The role of presynaptic scaffolding proteins coordinating presynaptic plasticity and neurotransmitter release, such as Bassoon (Bsn), in the pathogenesis of these disorders remains elusive.

The Genetic Landscape of Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia in Greece
We investigated 112 Greek index‐cases with hereditary spastic paraplegia collected over > 25 years using NGS and MLPA. We identified a causative variant in 68 patients (60.7%), including 7 novel causative variants. This study presents a comprehensive overview of the phenotypic and genotypic spectrum of HSP in the Greek population.

A nuclear family affected by distal arthrogryposis with novel biallelic MYH3 variants, which at the heterozygous state yield a subclinical phenotype, highlighting the complexity of MYH3‐related disorders and their inheritance modes. ABSTRACT Distal arthrogryposis constitutes a highly heterogeneous group of disorders with a critical need for clear ...

BT CORN AND INSECT RESISTANCE: AN ECONOMIC ASSESSMENT OF REFUGES [PDF]
Genetically engineered crops offer farmers a new option for controlling pests. The high efficacy of these pesticidal crops, combined with the potential for widespread adoption, has raised concerns that pest resistance may prematurely diminish their value.

ABSTRACT Objectives Sleep‐disordered breathing (SDB) and cognitive challenges are commonly observed in children living with sickle cell anaemia (SCA). This study investigated the longitudinal change in polysomnographic outcomes and the association with cognitive functions in children living with SCA.

SOX30 Governs Synaptonemal Complex Assembly and Homologous Recombination in Male Meiosis
The transcription factor SOX30 directly binds promoter regions of SYCE1 and SYCE2 to mediate their transcriptional activation, thereby enabling proper assembly of central elements within the synaptonemal complex. Structural destabilisation of the synaptonemal complex in Sox30 KK spermatocytes triggers synaptic discontinuity, impairs homologous ...

Whole Blood Transcriptomic Analysis of Sickle Cell Trait
ABSTRACT Sickle cell trait (SCT) is the heterozygous carrier state for the HBB missense variant which causes sickle cell disease (SCD). SCT has been associated with increased risk of venous thromboembolism and chronic kidney disease as well as alterations in clinical laboratory parameters. To investigate differential gene expression in SCT, we used RNA

Colour Polymorphism in Coconut Crabs Is Under Relaxed Selection From Conspecifics?
Coconut crabs are either red or blue irrespective of age or sex, are nocturnal and have very few predators. This experimental study shows that they do not use conspecific's colour but do use relative size to settle competitive interactions over food in the wild.
