A cell-penetrating ester of the neural metabolite lanthionine ketimine stimulates autophagy through the mTORC1 pathway: Evidence for a mechanism of action with pharmacological implications for neurodegenerative pathologies

Neurobiology of Disease, 2015
Autophagy is a fundamental cellular recycling process vulnerable to compromise in neurodegeneration. We now report that a cell-penetrating neurotrophic and neuroprotective derivative of the central nervous system (CNS) metabolite, lanthionine ketimine ...

Prenatal diagnosis of cardiac rhabdomyoma: implications for predicting tuberous sclerosis complex and guiding perinatal management

Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To identify prenatal predictors of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) in fetuses with one or more cardiac rhabdomyomas (CR), evaluate an integrated multimodal diagnostic workflow using fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and trio whole‐exome sequencing (trio‐WES) and characterize perinatal outcomes.

mTOR Deletion Alleviates CD4+ T-Cell Dysfunction in Sepsis through Reducing CTLA4 Accumulation Mediated by Rescuing Autophagy

Mediators of Inflammation
Sepsis has been the leading cause of death in ICU patients. CD4+ T cells are the mainstay of the body’s immune system, and the depletion of CD4+ T cells in sepsis is of great concern.

Non‐canonical PKG1 regulation in cardiovascular health and disease

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
It is well established that the cyclic GMP‐dependent protein kinase I (PKG1) is canonically activated by cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), enabling its regulation of vascular tone, cardiac function and smooth muscle homeostasis. However, diverse non‐canonical stimuli of PKG1 have also been identified.

Is there a role for cannabidiol in obesity, metabolic syndrome and binge eating?

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the most abundant phytocannabinoids isolated from the Cannabis sativa plant. CBD is a lipophilic, non‐intoxicating substance that differently from Δ9‐tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9‐THC) does not present the typical profile of a drug of abuse.

The WHO Classification of Genetic Tumour Syndromes: Considerations for Genetics

Clinical Genetics, EarlyView.
The WHO Classification of Tumours underpins the diagnosis of neoplastic conditions. The new WHO classification of genetic tumour syndromes (GTS) provides international standards for their diagnosis. This diagram highlights the chromosomal distribution of the genes involved in the GTS covered in this classification.

Descrição atualizada da paralisia cerebral

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Resumo A paralisia cerebral (PC) é um termo descritivo amplamente utilizado para um espectro de deficiências motoras causadas por lesão ou malformação cerebral não progressiva ocorrida durante as fases iniciais do desenvolvimento. Avanços recentes nas áreas da genética, de pesquisa em inflamação e em neurofisiologia têm refinado a compreensão ...

Identification of Novel Therapeutic Agent Candidates Through High Throughput Screening With Chemical Library Based on Molecular Subclassification in Canine Histiocytic Sarcoma Cell Lines

Veterinary and Comparative Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Effective chemotherapy for canine histiocytic sarcoma (CHS) has yet to be established. In our previous study, CHS cell lines were subclassified into two groups based on their gene expression profiles: Group A and Group B. This study aimed to identify novel therapeutic agents that are effective against each CHS subgroup, and we performed high ...

Hypoxia and hypercapnia elicit overlapping but distinct skeletal muscle toxicities

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Hypoxia and hypercapnia cause overlapping skeletal muscle phenotypes, including atrophy, change in myofibre metabolic profile and myogenic response to injury. Both signals operate via distinct cellular pathways. Abstract Skeletal muscle dysfunction is strongly associated with elevated mortality in acute and chronic pulmonary ...

NSAID ingestion augments training‐induced muscle hypertrophy and differentially affects muscle mRNA expression, but not strength gains, in trained men

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic outlining the impact of NSAID ingestion on resistance exercise training‐induced changes in muscle morphology, function and gene networks relative to placebo ingestion in trained males. Abstract Non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely overused in sports.
