Oligonucleotide that binds nuclear factor NF-kappa-B acts as a lymphoid-specific and inducible enhancer element [PDF]
The immunoglobulin kappa light chain gene contains a lymphoid-specific enhancer that includes several short protein-binding sequences. The sequence that binds the nuclear factor NF-kappa B was tested for its ability to act independently as an enhancer ...

Efgartigimod Combined With Steroid Treatment for HAM/TSP: A Case Report
ABSTRACT HTLV‐1‐associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) is a progressive neurological disorder with limited treatment options. We report a 54‐year‐old female with decade‐long, progressive HAM/TSP, previously refractory to rituximab, who experienced worsening spastic paraparesis and neurogenic bladder dysfunction.

The Effect of Repetition and Expertise on Liking and Complexity in Contemporary Music [PDF]
Aesthetic perception of music has been extensively researched in the last decades. Numerous studies suggest that listeners find a piece of music more or less pleasant according to its complexity.

Steric antisense inhibition of AMPA receptor Q/R editing reveals tight coupling to intronic editing sites and splicing [PDF]
Adenosine-to-Inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing is a post-transcriptional mechanism, evolved to diversify the transcriptome in metazoa. In addition to wide-spread editing in non-coding regions protein recoding by RNA editing allows for fine tuning of protein ...

ICU‐EEG Pattern Detection by a Convolutional Neural Network
ABSTRACT Objective Patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) often require continuous EEG (cEEG) monitoring due to the high risk of seizures and rhythmic and periodic patterns (RPPs). However, interpreting cEEG in real time is resource‐intensive and heavily relies on specialized expertise, which is not always available.

A Family of Developmentally Excised DNA Elements in \u3cem\u3eTetrahymena\u3c/em\u3e is under Selective Pressure to Maintain an Open Reading Frame Encoding an Integrase-Like Protein [PDF]
Tlr1 is a member of a family of ~20-30 DNA elements that undergo developmentally regulated excision during formation of the macronucleus in the ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena.

SUMOylation of Rad52-Rad59 synergistically change the outcome of mitotic recombination [PDF]
Homologous recombination (HR) is essential for maintenance of genome stability through double-strand break (DSB) repair, but at the same time HR can lead to loss of heterozygosity and uncontrolled recombination can be genotoxic.

Lirex: A Package for Identification of Long Inverted Repeats in Genomes
Abstract Long inverted repeats (LIRs) are evolutionarily and functionally important structures in genomes because of their involvement in RNA interference, DNA recombination, and gene duplication. Identification of LIRs is highly complicated when mismatches and indels between the repeats are permitted.

LIN28B Promotes Cancer Cell Dissemination and Angiogenesis
Children diagnosed with high‐risk neuroblastoma have a 5‐year event‐free survival rate of less than 50% and poor outcomes after recurrence. Deregulation of the LIN28B oncogene can be addressed in these patients. Upregulation of LIN28B is shown to support the metastatic cascade.
