Structural mechanism for bacterial oxidation of oceanic trimethylamine into trimethylamine N -oxide [PDF]
Trimethylamine (TMA) and trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) are widespread in the ocean and are important nitrogen source for bacteria. TMA monooxygenase (Tmm), a bacterial flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO), is found widespread in marine bacteria and is ...

Unraveling the Role of Ensheathing Cells and Perineural Fibroblasts in Olfactory Neurogenesis
Main Points DEOs are similar to satellite glial cells. DECs react to neuronal injury by promoting lipid metabolism, but do not proliferate. ECs reduce gap junctions upon neuronal injury. Perineural fibroblasts also contribute to the injury response. ABSTRACT During development and following injury‐induced neurogenesis, olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs)

Aplasia cutis congenita in surviving co-twin after propylthiouracil exposure in utero [PDF]
Aim: Aplasia cutis congenita (ACC) has been observed after fetal exposure to the antithyroid drug methimazole (MMI), but not reported after propylthiouracil (PTU), the current antithyroid drug of choice during pregnancy.
