Construction of hyperthermostable d‐allulose 3‐epimerase from Arthrobacter globiformis M30 using the sequence information from Arthrobacter psychrolactophilus

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
d‐Allulose can be produced from d‐fructose by d‐allulose 3‐epimerase. Based on sequence homology information, we successfully engineered thermostable mutants with the protein engineering method. By integrating positive mutations, we constructed an enzyme that exhibits hyperthermostability without a loss in the activity.

The phase relation between sunspot numbers and soft X-ray flares

, 2011
To better understand long-term flare activity, we present a statistical study on soft X-ray flares from May 1976 to May 2008. It is found that the smoothed monthly peak fluxes of C-class, M-class, and X-class flares have a very noticeable time lag of 13,

Co‐overexpression of the caloric restriction‐induced mitochondrial factors PGC‐1α and MIPEP upregulates Phospho1 expression in adipocytes

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Caloric restriction that extends lifespan induces the expression of PGC‐1α and MIPEP in white adipose tissue. In this study, co‐overexpression of Pgc‐1α and Mipep upregulated the gene expression of PHOSPHO1. These findings provide new insights into mitochondria‐related mechanisms underlying the effects of caloric restriction in adipocytes.

French birds lag behind climate warming [PDF]

, 2007
Biodiversity responses to climate warming have been documented through the study of changes in distributions, abundances or phenologies of individual species or in more integrated measures such as species community richness and composition.

Beyond p‐values: Assessing clinical significance in acupuncture research

Advanced Chinese Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract In acupuncture randomized controlled trials (RCTs), the proper interpretation of results requires a thorough understanding of key statistical concepts such as p‐value, effect size, and the minimal clinically important difference (MCID). This paper explores the relationships among these metrics and their implications for assessing the clinical ...

Taking the lag out of jet lag through model-based schedule design.

PLoS Computational Biology, 2009
Travel across multiple time zones results in desynchronization of environmental time cues and the sleep-wake schedule from their normal phase relationships with the endogenous circadian system.

Coffee Consumption Is Associated With Later Age‐at‐Onset of Parkinson's Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Observation studies suggest that coffee consumption may lower the risk and delay the age‐at‐onset (AAO) of Parkinson's disease (PD). The aim of this study was to explore the causal relationship and genetic association between coffee consumption and the AAO, risk, and progression of PD. Using Mendelian randomization, we identified a significant

Genetic Diversity and Expanded Phenotypes in Dystonia: Insights From Large‐Scale Exome Sequencing

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Dystonia is one of the most prevalent movement disorders, characterized by significant clinical and etiological heterogeneity. Despite considerable heritability (~25%), the etiology in most patients remains elusive. Moreover, understanding correlations between clinical manifestations and genetic variants has become increasingly ...

High‐Efficacy Treatment in Neuromyelitis Optica Specturm Disorder Patients With Seropositive AQP4 Antibodies—A Real‐World Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To compare the effectiveness of high‐efficacy treatments (HET) and low‐efficacy treatments (LET) in NMOSD patients with anti‐aquaporin‐4 antibodies (AQP4‐ab). Methods In this multi‐center study, we analyzed 183 AQP4‐ab seropositive NMOSD patients who received immunosuppressive treatments (IST).

Priming and Lagging [PDF]

Journal of Navigation, 1954
The term ‘Priming and Lagging’ has been defined in two different ways.The Admiralty Manual of Navigation (1922) defines it as occurring when the resultant of the solar and lunar tides arrives before or after the lunar tide would arrive. This is here called definition A.
