STAT2 deficiency and susceptibility to viral illness in humans [PDF]
, 2013 Severe infectious disease in children may be a manifestation of primary immunodeficiency. These genetic disorders represent important experiments of nature with the capacity to elucidate nonredundant mechanisms of human immunity.

Restoring Ureagenesis in Hepatocytes by CRISPR/Cas9-mediated Genomic Addition to Arginase-deficient Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells. [PDF]
, 2016 Urea cycle disorders are incurable enzymopathies that affect nitrogen metabolism and typically lead to hyperammonemia. Arginase deficiency results from a mutation in Arg1, the enzyme regulating the final step of ureagenesis and typically results in ...

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Aims Paroxetine is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), approved for treatment of major depressive disorder and anxiety disorders. Some SSRIs are known to prolong the QT interval; however, clinical evidence to establish a lack of association between paroxetine and corrected QT interval (QTc) prolongation is limited. Therefore, this

TYK2-induced phosphorylation of Y640 suppresses STAT3 transcriptional activity [PDF]
, 2017 STAT3 is a pleiotropic transcription factor involved in homeostatic and host defense processes in the human body. It is activated by numerous cytokines and growth factors and generates a series of cellular effects.

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Aim Tacrolimus monitoring is generally performed in whole blood (WB). Most (>85%) of circulating tacrolimus is bound to red blood cells. During pregnancy, WB monitoring might be suboptimal because of physiological changes including increased plasma volume and decreased haematocrit.

The impacts of biological invasions
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

The ageing holobiont: crosstalk between telomere dynamics, oxidative stress and the gut microbiome
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The gut tissue is at the frontline of early onset of ageing. It exhibits high cell turnover rates and rapid telomere shortening, which can have systemic effects on the developing or senescing organism. We conducted a literature review of studies on the crosstalk between telomere length dynamics, telomerase activity, oxidative stress, and gut ...
