Optimization of novel compounds using computer‐aided drug design for treatment of cardiac arrhythmia

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Loss‐of‐function mutations of the voltage‐gated Kv7.1 (KCNQ/KCNE1) channels lead to cardiac arrhythmia such as long QT syndrome, characterized by a prolonged QT interval . One strategy to correct the prolonged QT interval is to design molecules that activate KCNQ1/KCNE1 channels and restore the QT interval.

Rosemary metabolite carnosic acid opens Kv1.1 via its voltage sensor and corrects Kv1.1‐linked episodic ataxia in mice

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Episodic ataxia type 1 (EA1) is an autosomal dominant neurological disorder caused primarily by loss‐of‐function mutations in the voltage‐gated potassium channel Kv1.1 (KCNA1). Small molecules that restore Kv1.1 activity hold promise as targeted therapies for EA1, yet current pharmacological strategies remain limited ...

The WHO Classification of Genetic Tumour Syndromes: Considerations for Genetics

open access: yesClinical Genetics, EarlyView.
The WHO Classification of Tumours underpins the diagnosis of neoplastic conditions. The new WHO classification of genetic tumour syndromes (GTS) provides international standards for their diagnosis. This diagram highlights the chromosomal distribution of the genes involved in the GTS covered in this classification.

Influence of elevation, climate, snowmelt and floral abundance on body size of solitary bees

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
We measured body size in bee species from a 10‐year specimen collection from Colorado sub‐alpine meadows (2450–3450 m) and tested effects of elevation and annual snowmelt, climate and floral abundance. 2 out of 4 bee species collected across a broad elevation range showed a decline in body size with higher elevations; the other two showed no effect ...

Compromised DNA replication in gut cells underlies sensitivity to genotoxic stress in the tardigrade Hypsibius exemplaris

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
DNA damage in the tardigrade Hypsibius exemplaris elicits distinct cellular outcomes depending on replication status. While non‐replicating cells tolerate genotoxic stress, constitutively replicating cells undergo irreversible replication failure upon DNA damage, leading to loss of tissue homeostasis, fat depletion, sterility, and organismal death ...

Genetic Parameters and Genome‐Wide Association Studies for Fertility and Reproduction Traits in U.S. Katahdin Sheep Based on the Single‐Step GBLUP Methodology

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sheep production contributes to a secure and diverse food and fibre supply in the United States, with growing ethnic diversity strengthening demand. Katahdin is a composite hair‐type sheep breed developed in the United States that has become the most popular breed in many regions of the country and the first one to have genomic selection ...

Estimating Patagonian toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides) length at first maturity from their age, sex and temperature experience around South Georgia

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Patagonian toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides) are a long‐lived, slow‐growing deep‐sea species endemic to the Southern Hemisphere and the focus of longline fisheries managed to ensure sustainable exploitation. Managing the fisheries relies on accurate stock assessments that include pertinent biological and exploitation processes.
