Pathogenesis and potential therapeutic targets of trichorhinophalangeal syndrome; lessons obtained from animal studies

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome (TRPS) is a rare genetic disease inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. It occurs in 1 in 100,000 people globally and is caused by several types of mutations of the TRPS1 gene. Since the first human patient was reported in 1966, typical and atypical pathologies, disease courses, and treatment case ...

Preliminary Evidence of the Association Between Binge Eating and Preeclampsia in Pregnant U.S. Military Active‐Duty Service Women

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Binge eating is the most common disordered eating behavior among pregnant women. This study examined the association of binge‐eating frequency with the presence of a self‐reported current preeclampsia diagnosis in a sample of U.S. military active‐duty Service women. Methods Active‐duty Service women (N = 134), 20–27 weeks gestation,

From fix to fit into the autoptic human brains

European Journal of Histochemistry, 2018
Formalin-fixed, paraffinembedded (FFPE) human brain tissues are very often stored in formalin for long time. Formalin fixation reduces immunostaining, and the DNA/RNA extraction from FFPE brain tissue becomes suboptimal.

Severity of effect considerations regarding the use of mutation as a toxicological endpoint for risk assessment: A report from the 8th International Workshop on Genotoxicity Testing (IWGT)

Environmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, EarlyView.
Abstract Exposure levels without appreciable human health risk may be determined by dividing a point of departure on a dose–response curve (e.g., benchmark dose) by a composite adjustment factor (AF). An “effect severity” AF (ESAF) is employed in some regulatory contexts.
