Conservation Status of Two Italian Local Poultry Breeds: Faraona Camosciata and Oca Padovana

open access: yesAnimal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The present study aimed to assess the conservation status and characterize the phenotypic and genomic diversity of two endangered Italian poultry genetic resources to guide their conservation plans. Blood samples and morphometric data were collected on 50 Faraona Camosciata (FAC, Numida meleagris) and 50 Oca Padovana (OPD, Anser anser) adult ...

Endogenously generated Dutch‐type Aβ non‐fibrillar aggregates dysregulate presynaptic neurotransmission in the absence of detectable inflammation

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND APPE693Q (“Dutch”) transgenic mice develop aging‐related learning deficits and accumulate endogenously generated non‐fibrillar aggregates (NFAs) of amyloid beta (Aβ) and amyloid precursor protein α‐carboxy terminal fragments. NFA‐Aβ correlates with synaptic loss and memory deficits more closely than does fibrillar Aβ.

Regulation of the Na+,Cl- Coupled Creatine Transporter CreaT (SLC6A8) by the Janus Kinase JAK3

open access: yesNeurosignals, 2015
Background: The creatine transporter CreaT (SLC6A8), a Na+,Cl- coupled transporter is expressed in diverse tissues including the brain. Genetic defects of SLC6A8 result in mental retardation with seizures.

Carrier screening in the reproductive setting—Are there medical implications for the heterozygote?—A guide for clinicians

open access: yesPregnancy, Volume 2, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn

Evaluating Transcriptomic Biomarkers for rHuEPO Detection: Assessing the Impact of Exercise and Altitude Exposure

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, Volume 18, Issue 4, Page 581-602, April 2026.
A two‐stage transcriptomic filter comparing rHuEPO, exercise and altitude responses reduced 153 candidate genes to 50 that were unaffected by physiological stimuli. These retained transcripts offer focused biomarker leads to strengthen antidoping detection of rHuEPO.

The skeletal muscle–adipose creatine metabolic axis: A novel paradigm for lipid metabolism reprogramming and obesity management

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 4, Page 1700-1707, 1 April 2026.
Abstract The global prevalence of obesity and related metabolic disorders has spurred interdisciplinary research to develop new intervention strategies. Current research is increasingly focusing on the exercise‐induced browning of white adipose tissue and the mechanisms by which it improves energy metabolism.

Contributions of SGK3 to transporter-related diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Serum- and glucocorticoid-induced kinase 3 (SGK3), which is ubiquitously expressed in mammals, is regulated by estrogens and androgens. SGK3 is activated by insulin and growth factors through signaling pathways involving phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase ...

Optimal neuromuscular performance requires motor neuron phosphagen kinases

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 5, Page 2027-2059, 1 March 2026.
Abstract figure legend Motor neuron (MN) terminals in fruit flies, mice and humans contain phosphagen kinases, a key enzyme in their energy storage and buffering system. Here we knocked down the primary phosphagen kinase in fruit fly larvae (arginine kinase 1 (ArgK1)) but were surprised to find that MN endurance was unaffected.

tRF‐30‐FP18LPMBQ4NK in Systemic Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis: A Promising Diagnostic and Disease Activity Biomarker

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1556, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Diagnosing systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA) poses significant challenges. Accumulating evidence has indicated that tRNA‐derived fragments (tRFs) play integral roles in the pathogenesis of numerous diseases. Plasma samples were collected from individuals diagnosed with sJIA and healthy controls (HCs) from two medical centers and ...

Creatine transporter deficiency: Novel mutations and functional studies

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2016
X-linked cerebral creatine deficiency (MIM 300036) is caused by deficiency of the creatine transporter encoded by the SLC6A8 gene. Here we report three patients with this condition from Israel.
