Reduction and esterification of cholesterol and sitosterol by homogenates of feces
Journal of Lipid Research, 1971 Mixtures of cholesterol-1,2-3H and sitosterol-4-14C have been incubated with suspensions of feces in order to compare the behavior of the phytosterol with transformations known to take place with cholesterol under these conditions. Within the limitations

Aldosterone and Dexamethasone Activate African Lungfish Mineralocorticoid Receptor: Increased Activation After Removal of the Amino-Terminal Domain [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Aldosterone, the main physiological mineralocorticoid in humans and other terrestrial vertebrates, first appears in lungfish, which are lobe-finned fish that are forerunners of terrestrial vertebrates. Aldosterone activation of the MR regulates internal homeostasis of water, sodium and potassium, which was critical in the conquest of land by ...

Capturing what matters: Patient‐reported LGI1‐ANTibody encephalitis outcome RatiNg scale (LANTERN)
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.Abstract Background LGI1‐antibody encephalitis (LGI1‐Ab‐E) is a common form of autoimmune encephalitis where most patients demonstrate ‘good’ clinician‐rated outcomes. However, more targeted questionnaires reveal numerous debilitating symptoms for many years.

Vibrational properties of inclusion complexes: the case of indomethacin-cyclodextrin [PDF]
, 2006 Vibrational properties of inclusion complexes with cyclodextrins are studied by means of Raman spectroscopy and numerical simulation. In particular, Raman spectra of the non-steroidal, anti-inflammatory drug indomethacin undergo notable changes in the energy range between 1600 and 1700 cm$^{-1}$ when inclusion complexes with cyclodextrins are formed ...

Combination Therapy With Vigabatrin and Prednisolone Versus Vigabatrin Alone for Infantile Spasms
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective The study evaluated the effectiveness of combination therapy with vigabatrin and prednisolone versus vigabatrin alone for treating infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS). Methods This single‐center, single‐blind, randomized trial enrolled infants aged 2–14 months with new‐onset IESS, randomly assigned them (1:1) to receive either

Steroid Receptors and Vertebrate Evolution [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Considering that life on earth evolved about 3.7 billion years ago, vertebrates are young, appearing in the fossil record during the Cambrian explosion about 542 to 515 million years ago. Results from sequence analyses of genomes from bacteria, yeast, plants, invertebrates and vertebrates indicate that receptors for adrenal steroids (aldosterone ...

Corticosteroid Activation of Atlantic Sea Lamprey Corticoid Receptor: Allosteric Regulation by the N-terminal Domain [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Lampreys are jawless fish that evolved about 550 million years ago at the base of the vertebrate line. Modern lampreys contain a corticoid receptor (CR), the common ancestor of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) and mineralocorticoid receptor (MR), which first appear in cartilaginous fish, such as sharks.

CSF Tau Is a Biomarker of Hippocampal Injury in Cryptogenic New‐Onset Refractory Status Epilepticus
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Cryptogenic new‐onset refractory status epilepticus (cNORSE) is a devastating condition characterized by the de novo onset of status epilepticus with unclear etiology. The identification of relevant early biomarkers in cNORSE is important to elucidate pathophysiology, aid clinical decision‐making, and prognosticate outcomes in cNORSE.

Symmetric Tensor Decomposition by an Iterative Eigendecomposition Algorithm [PDF]
arXiv, 2014 We present an iterative algorithm, called the symmetric tensor eigen-rank-one iterative decomposition (STEROID), for decomposing a symmetric tensor into a real linear combination of symmetric rank-1 unit-norm outer factors using only eigendecompositions and least-squares fitting. Originally designed for a symmetric tensor with an order being a power of
