Different contributions of preparatory activity in the basal ganglia and cerebellum for self-timing
eLife, 2018 The ability to flexibly adjust movement timing is important for everyday life. Although the basal ganglia and cerebellum have been implicated in monitoring of supra- and sub-second intervals, respectively, the underlying neuronal mechanism remains ...

Photodynamic inactivation of bacteriophage MS2: The A-protein is the target of virus inactivation [PDF]
Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology B: Biology, 2018 Singlet oxygen mediated oxidation has been shown to be responsible for photodynamic inactivation (PDI) of viruses in solution with photosensitisers such as 5, 10, 15, 20-tetrakis (1-methyl-4-pyridinio) porphyrin tetra p-toluenesulfonate (TMPyP). The capsids of non-enveloped viruses, such as bacteriophage MS2, are possible targets for viral inactivation

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.

Journal of Food Safety, 1998 ABSTRACT Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) belongs to a distinct group of transmissible degenerative encephalopathies (TDE) that includes scrapie in sheep and Creutzfeldt‐Jakob disease (CJD) of humans. These fatal neurological diseases are caused by unconventional but uncharacterized transmissible agents that have a number of unusual properties ...

Hepatic Inactivation of Renin [PDF]
Circulation Research, 1967 Renin activities were measured in plasma from an artery and from the hepatic, portal, and renal veins of anesthetized dogs. A significant arterial-hepatic venous renin difference was observed during control periods and after elevation of arterial renin by stimulation of endogenous renin secretion (induced by acute salt depletion) or by infusion of ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.
