Multiple small monthly doses of dicyandiamide (DCD) did not reduce denitrification in Waikato dairy pasture [PDF]
, 2013 The effectiveness of multiple small doses of the nitrification inhibitor dicyandiamide (DCD) to decrease denitrification under warm moist conditions was tested in a 1-year field trial on a grazed dairy pasture. DCD was applied approximately every 4 weeks

IGF2 knockout reduces but does not abolish osteosarcoma growth in vitro and in vivo
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.To test whether endogenous IGF2 promotes osteosarcoma growth, IGF2 was knocked out in Saos2 cells via CRISPR‐Cas9. KO cells showed reduced proliferation in vitro, and knockout xenografts in mice reached only ~25% of wild‐type tumor volume. Insulin‐like growth factor 2 (IGF2) is implicated in osteosarcoma, but direct functional evidence of its role is ...

Clinical Impact of NOTCH3 Variant Location After First Stroke in CADASIL
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Despite its monogenic origin, Cerebral Autosomal Dominant Arteriopathy with Subcortical Infarcts and Leukoencephalopathy exhibits marked variability in clinical expression and severity. Variants in the NOTCH3 gene, within epidermal growth factor‐like repeat domains 1–6 or 7–34, are known to influence disease onset, but their impact ...

Evaluating the mineral nutrient status of fresh pasture herbage using laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy [PDF]
, 2014 Comprehensive determination of the mineral nutrient status of pasture or horticultural crops currently requires leaf or herbage samples to be harvested and taken to a laboratory for analysis, which is both labour-intensive and time-consuming.

Augmenting and Assaying Nav1.1 Protein Quantity for Dravet Syndrome Therapy
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Dravet Syndrome (DS) is a developmental and epileptic encephalopathy predominantly caused by heterozygous loss‐of‐function variants in SCN1A, which encodes Nav1.1. Conserved upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in SCN1A were validated to regulate translation in reporter assays, demonstrating the therapeutic viability of increasing Nav1.1 from ...

Generalized Dystonia With Cervical Predominance in a Patient With a De Novo TCF20 Variant
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT TCF20 has been implicated in developmental delay and intellectual disability, with dystonia reported less frequently. We describe a woman in her early twenties with childhood‐onset learning difficulties, progressive dysarthria, tremor, and generalized dystonia with marked cervical predominance, associated with a de novo TCF20 frameshift ...

Disentangling the Genetic Relationship Between Sleep and Epilepsy
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective A bidirectional relationship between sleep and epilepsy is well recognised, yet the biological mechanisms linking them remain poorly understood. Both have a genetic basis, with genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) capturing polygenic contributions.

Counterion Dependent Side‐Chain Relaxation Stiffens a Chemically Doped Thienothiophene Copolymer
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Oxidation of a thienothiophene copolymer, p(g3TT‐T2), via different doping strategies and dopant molecules resulted in materials with similar oxidation levels and a high electrical conductivity of ≈100 S cm−1. However, mechanical properties varied significantly, with sub‐glass transition temperatures and elastic moduli spanning from –44°C to –3°C and ...
