A Brain‐Penetrant Nanobody Reveals GSK3β‐Driven Proline‐Directed Phosphorylation as a Master Regulator of Ischemic Neurodegeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A brain‐targeted nanoparticle enables delivery of a therapeutic nanobody (Nb.29E9) that inhibits pathogenic GSK3β signaling. This intervention restores AMPK/mTORC1/TGFβ homeostasis, attenuates neuroinflammation and oxidative stress, and promotes long‐term functional recovery after ischemic stroke.

A Case of Juvenile Huntington Disease in a 6-Year-Old Boy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Movement Disorders, 2010
Huntington disease is a neurodegenerative disorder distinguished by the triad of dominant inheritance, choreoathetosis and dementia, usually with onset in the fourth and fifth decades.

Single‐Cell RNA Editing Identifies T Cell ADAR1 as a Key Regulator of Immune Exhaustion and Anti‐PD‐1 Resistance in Colorectal Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Single‐cell RNA editing analysis identifies ADAR1 as a regulator of dysfunctional T cell states in colorectal cancer. Elevated ADAR1 activity promotes T cell exhaustion and impairs antitumor immunity partly through TGF‐β‐SMAD signaling, contributing to anti‐PD‐1 resistance and highlighting T cell ADAR1 as a potential therapeutic target and biomarker ...

GFP-based fluorescence assay for CAG repeat instability in cultured human cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Trinucleotide repeats can be highly unstable, mutating far more frequently than point mutations. Repeats typically mutate by addition or loss of units of the repeat.

Raman Optical Activity as a Tool to Monitor Polynucleotide Conformation in Solutions

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Raman optical activity (ROA) studies of nucleic acids have been hindered by limited computational tools to link the spectra to the structure. The study shows that accurate density functional simulations are possible for model nucleotides, bringing more information about molecular geometry and dynamics in solutions.

Genetic epilepsies with myoclonic seizures: Mechanisms and syndromes

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Genetic epilepsy with myoclonic seizures encompasses a heterogeneous spectrum of conditions, ranging from benign and self‐limiting forms to severe, progressive disorders. While their causes are diverse, a significant proportion stems from genetic abnormalities.

The Startling Role of Mismatch Repair in Trinucleotide Repeat Expansions

open access: yesCells, 2021
Trinucleotide repeats are a peculiar class of microsatellites whose expansions are responsible for approximately 30 human neurological or developmental disorders.

Two near‐complete assemblies reveal R‐subgenome structural and centromeric divergence associated with reproductive isolation in hexaploid triticale

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
We present two near‐complete triticale genome assemblies and perform pan‐centromere analyses across >200 haplotypes from parental species, synthetic allopolyploids, cultivars, and 337 resequenced accessions, revealing a shared chromatin framework underlying functional centromeres in all three subgenomes, where wheat‐ and rye‐derived CENH3 co‐occupy ...

Crosstalk between MSH2–MSH3 and polβ promotes trinucleotide repeat expansion during base excision repair

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
The expansion of trinucleotide repeats can have detrimental effects and give rise to a range of human diseases. Here the authors report that the mismatch repair and the base excision repair machinery can operate together to promote expansion during ...

Microsatellite Stability in STR Analysis Aspergillus fumigatus Depends on Number of Repeat Units

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2019
More than a decade ago a short tandem repeat-based typing method was developed for the fungus Aspergillus fumigatus. This STRAf assay is based on the analysis of nine short tandem repeat markers.
