We generated two neuron‐specific Cre rat lines, Thy1‐Cre and NeuN‐Cre, using CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated targeted insertion. Both lines were validated for high neural specificity by crossing them with a Cre reporter rat. When bred with an ND1 conditional knockout rat, the two Cre lines produced distinct phenotypic outcomes. These rat lines have been deposited

Objective Chondrocytemetabolic dysfunction plays an important role in osteoarthritis (OA) development during aging and obesity. Protein posttranslational modifications (PTMs) have recently emerged as an important regulator of cellular metabolism. We aim to study one type of PTM, lysine malonylation (MaK), and its regulator sirtuin 5 (Sirt5) in OA ...

Mucosal‐associated invariant T cells in rheumatic diseases.
Mucosal‐associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are innate‐like T cells defined by their semi‐invariant T cell receptor (TCR) and restriction by the MHC class I‐related molecule (MR1). These cells are primarily activated by microbial‐derived metabolites presented by MR1 or by cytokines. Upon activation, MAIT cells rapidly produce pro‐inflammatory cytokines,

The prevalence of intravenous (IV) catheter-related infections is 0.5 per 1000 device days, and these infections cause tenderness, erythema, swelling and phlebitis. Catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSI) may independently increase hospital costs

Loss of TRIM21 drives UVB‐induced systemic inflammation by regulating DNA‐sensing pathways
Background Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) experience photosensitivity, with exposure to ultraviolet light B (UVB) driving lupus flares and triggering symptoms like joint pain, fatigue, and cutaneous lesions. Although the mechanism(s) linking UVB exposure to systemic effects are unclear, type I interferons (IFNs) are known to play a ...

Critical Debate on Establishing a Scheme for Nurse Anesthetists in Japan
For decades, a chronic shortage of anesthesiologists in Japan has been a serious problem. According to a personal survey conducted from 2002 to 2006 by Koichi Tsuzaki, MD (Associate Professor of Anesthesiology, Keio University School of Medicine, Tokyo Japan), more than one million surgical procedures required general anesthesia while only 6207 ...

The Community of Nursing: Moral Friends, Moral Strangers, Moral Family [PDF]
Unlike bioethicists who contend that there is a morality common to all, H. Tristan Engelhardt (1996) argues that, in a pluralistic secular society, any morality that does exist is loosely connected, lacks substantive moral content, is based on the ...

Objective Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is a possible trigger of systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases (SARDs). We investigated SARDs risk related to long‐term exposure to PM2.5 and its components (ammonium, black carbon, mineral dust, sea salt, nitrate, sulfate, organic matter), the composition of which may affect toxicity.
