Epilepsy‐associated SCN2A‐L1342P mutation drives network hyperexcitability and widespread transcriptomic changes in human cortical organoids

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective SCN2A pathogenic mutations, such as the recurrent heterozygous Nav1.2‐L1342P, are monogenic causes of epilepsy. In this human‐induced pluripotent stem cell–derived model system, we aim to investigate the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying SCN2A‐L1342P‐associated pathology. Methods Using a human male induced pluripotent stem

β‐Hydroxybutyrate reduces neuronal excitability via GIRK channels

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
β‐Hydroxybutyrate decreases neuronal excitability by activating GIRK channels through HCAR2 signaling, providing a cellular mechanism that may contribute to the antiseizure effects of the ketogenic diet. Abstract Objective The ketogenic diet is used to treat drug‐resistant epilepsy, yet the molecular mechanisms coupling metabolic state to seizure ...

Identification of the immediate-early genes of white spot syndrome virus

Virology, 2009
During viral infection, viral immediate-early (IE) genes encode regulatory proteins critical for the viral life cycle. Here we screened white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) IE genes with cycloheximide (CHX)-treated primary culture of crayfish hemocyte and a WSSV genome tiling microarray.

New insights into epileptic spasm generation and treatment from the TTX animal model

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Currently, we have an incomplete understanding of the mechanisms underlying infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS). However, over the past decade, significant efforts have been made to develop IESS animal models to provide much‐needed mechanistic information for therapy development.

Effects of the sulfated polysaccharides dextran sulfate and heparin on shrimp immunity and infection by white spot syndrome virus and Vibrio parahaemolyticus

Aquaculture Reports
White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) and Vibrio parahaemolyticus are major pathogens of the economically important shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei, causing white spot syndrome and hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND), respectively.

White spot syndrome virus infection: Threat to crustacean biodiversity in Vembanad Lake, India

Biotechnology Reports, 2015
The Vembanad Lake located on the south-west coast of India, an ecological hotspot is the nursing ground of many economically important crustaceans. The prevalence of white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) among crustaceans from farmed, estuarine and marine ...

White spot syndrome virus VP24 interacts with VP28 and is involved in virus infection

Journal of General Virology, 2006
White spot syndrome virus(WSSV) is one of the most virulent pathogens causing high mortality in shrimp. Herein, the characterization of VP24, a major structural protein of WSSV, is described. When purified virions were subjected to Nonidet P-40 treatment to separate the envelopes from the nucleocapsids, VP24 was found to be present exclusively in the ...

Gamma SARS‐CoV‐2 variant of concern infection repercussions on pregnancy outcomes: A translational cohort study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study conduct viral genome sequencing among severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2)‐infected pregnant and postpartum individuals, and investigates disease severity and maternal and perinatal outcomes considering variant of concern (VOC) and non‐VOC groups.

Hyperoside alleviates endometrial stromal cell senescence in unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion via DHX9‐mediated R‐loop resolution

iMeta, EarlyView.
This study suggests that the food‐derived flavonoid hyperoside may act as a natural DExH‐box helicase 9 (DHX9) modulator, directly targeting Thr419 of DHX9 to help resolve pathological R‐loop accumulation. Consequently, it suppresses cyclic GMP‐AMP synthase‐stimulator of interferon genes (cGAS‐STING)‐driven endometrial stromal senescence and restores ...
