We investigated the seeded assembly of 0N3R tau and two variants, C322A and C322S, designed to model the mutation landscape at residue 322, using Alzheimer's disease brain homogenates in a real‐time quaking‐induced conversion (RT‐QuIC) assay. The C322A variant formed filaments that partially resembled the paired helical filament (PHF) structure ...

ACSS2 involved in acetyl‐CoA synthesis regulates skeletal muscle function
The enzyme acyl‐coenzyme A synthetase short‐chain family member‐2 (ACSS2) catalyzes the conversion of acetate to acetyl‐CoA, but its function in skeletal muscle is unclear. We studied ACSS2 deficiency in mouse and fly models. Skeletal muscle from the mouse model showed atrophic fibers, excess lipid, and depleted NADH.

Medical humanities and philosophy of medicine [PDF]
Over the past 30 years — starting in the United States — an interest in ‘medical humanities’ has emerged. In the same period modern ‘philosophy of medicine’ developed. Although the medical humanities are sometimes presented under the flag of medical philosophy, there are good reasons to consider these fields separately.

Mutations in the C9orf72 gene represent the most common genetic cause of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a fatal neurodegenerative disease. Using patient‐derived neurons and C. elegans models, we find that the nucleoporin Nup107 is dysregulated in C9orf72‐associated ALS. Conversely, reducing Nup107 levels mitigates disease‐related changes.

Novel and unscrutinized immune entities of the zebrafish gut
Understudied cells of the zebrafish immune system include bona fide immune cells and epithelial (‐derived) cells with immune functions. Research focusing on zebrafish cells which demonstrate similarities to mammalian immune cell counterparts may help us understand the pathologies in which they are implicated. Currently available and advanced tools make

Do the medical humanities enrich learning during an undergraduate anaesthetic placement?
The value of humanities may not be immediately apparent to those focused on the medical sciences. Medical humanities offer a range of learning opportunities, complementing the sciences to enhance medical education (Lake, Jackson and Hardman, 2015 ...

Single‐cell RNA sequencing reveals an opposite role of SLPI in basal tumors based on metastatic spread, along with shared activation of specific regulons in cancer cells and mature luminal lactocytes, as well as downregulation of MALAT1 and NEAT1 in the latter.
