Reversible obstruction of the olfactory cleft: impact on olfactory perception and nasal patency
Background Temporary disruption of sensory input can be studied relatively easily for vision or hearing by covering the eyes or ears. In contrast, closing the nostrils affects not only the sense of smell, but also the ability to breathe through the nose and humidify and warm inhaled air. We hypothesized that filling the olfactory cleft (OC) with dissolvable nasal dressing (foam) would temporarily block olfaction while respecting nasal airflow. Methods In 30 healthy volunteers, the OC...

Time lapse analysis of tumor response in patients with soft tissue sarcoma treated with trabectedin: A pooled analysis of two phase II clinical trials
Among 66 patients with translocation‐related sarcoma, 9 showed partial response to trabectedin, and 5 of the 9 responders (56%) fulfilled the criteria for partial response later than 100 days from treatment initiation. Tumor response to trabectedin was characterized as delayed and stabilized by the detailed time‐lapse analysis of tumor size. Abstract The time course of the response to each drug is important to avoid inappropriate termination of treatment by misjudging tumor progression; however,...

ASXL1 mutation as a surrogate marker in acute myeloid leukemia with myelodysplasia‐related changes and normal karyotype
The ASXL1 mutation frequency is high in AML‐MRC patients being its presence associated with specific characteristics, including morphological signs of dysplasia. This association raises the possible role of ASXL1 as a surrogate marker in AML‐MRC, which could facilitate the diagnosis of patients within this group when the karyotype is normal, and especially when the assessment of multilineage dysplasia morphologically is difficult. This mutation could be used as a worst outcome marker in de novo AML‐MRC...

Doxorubicin induces cardiomyocyte apoptosis and atrophy through cyclin-dependent kinase 2-mediated activation of forkhead box O1 [Cell Biology]
Recent clinical investigations indicate that anthracycline-based chemotherapies induce early decline in heart mass in cancer patients. Heart mass decline may be caused by a decrease in cardiac cell number because of increased cell death or by a reduction in cell size because of atrophy. We previously reported that an anthracycline, doxorubicin (DOX), induces apoptotic death of cardiomyocytes by activating cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2). However, the signaling pathway downstream of CDK2 remains...

Rational design, synthesis, and evaluation of uncharged, “smart” bis-oxime antidotes of organophosphate-inhibited human acetylcholinesterase [Enzymology]
Organophosphate (OP) intoxications from nerve agent and OP pesticide exposures are managed with pyridinium aldoxime–based therapies whose success rates are currently limited. The pyridinium cation hampers uptake of OPs into the central nervous system (CNS). Furthermore, it frequently binds to aromatic residues of OP-inhibited acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in orientations that are nonproductive for AChE reactivation, and the structural diversity of OPs impedes efficient reactivation.

Leptin-mediated differential regulation of microsomal triglyceride transfer protein in the intestine and liver affects plasma lipids [Gene Regulation]
The hormone leptin regulates fat storage and metabolism by signaling through the brain and peripheral tissues. Lipids delivered to peripheral tissues originate mostly from the intestine and liver via synthesis and secretion of apolipoprotein B (apoB)-containing lipoproteins. An intracellular chaperone, microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP), is required for the biosynthesis of these lipoproteins, and its regulation determines fat mobilization to different tissues. Using cell culture and animal...

The extracellular domain of angulin-1 and palmitoylation of its cytoplasmic region are required for angulin-1 assembly at tricellular contacts [Membrane Biology]
Tricellular tight junctions (tTJs) create paracellular barriers at tricellular contacts (TCs), where the vertices of three polygonal epithelial cells meet. tTJs are marked by the enrichment of two types of membrane proteins, tricellulin and angulin family proteins. However, how TC geometry is recognized for tTJ formation remains unknown. In the present study, we examined the molecular mechanism for the assembly of angulin-1 at the TCs. We found that clusters of cysteine residues in the juxtamembrane...

Chlorpromazine binding to the PAS domains uncovers the effect of ligand modulation on EAG channel activity [Molecular Biophysics]
Ether-a-go-go (EAG) potassium selective channels are major regulators of neuronal excitability and cancer progression. EAG channels contain a Per–Arnt–Sim (PAS) domain in their intracellular N-terminal region. The PAS domain is structurally similar to the PAS domains in non-ion channel proteins, where these domains frequently function as ligand-binding domains. Despite the structural similarity, it is not known whether the PAS domain can regulate EAG channel function via ligand binding. Here, using...

A genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 screen reveals that the aryl hydrocarbon receptor stimulates sphingolipid levels [Metabolism]
Sphingolipid biosynthesis generates lipids for membranes and signaling that are crucial for many developmental and physiological processes. In some cases, large amounts of specific sphingolipids must be synthesized for specialized physiological functions, such as during axon myelination. How sphingolipid synthesis is regulated to fulfill these physiological requirements is not known. To identify genes that positively regulate membrane sphingolipid levels, here we employed a genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9...

  1. Irrespective of receiving daily oral or future in jectable depot therapies, these require health care visits for medication and monitoring of safety and response. If patients are treated early enough, before a lot of immune system damage has occurred, life expectancy is close to normal, as long as they remain on successful treatment. However, when patients stop therapy, virus rebounds to high levels in most patients, sometimes associated with severe illness because I have gone through this and even an increased risk of death. The aim of “cure”is ongoing but I still do believe my government made millions of ARV drugs instead of finding a cure. for ongoing therapy and monitoring. ARV alone cannot cure HIV as among the cells that are infected are very long-living CD4 memory cells and possibly other cells that act as long-term reservoirs. HIV can hide in these cells without being detected by the body’s immune system. Therefore even when ART completely blocks subsequent rounds of infection of cells, reservoirs that have been infected before therapy initiation persist and from these reservoirs HIV rebounds if therapy is stopped. “Cure” could either mean an eradication cure, which means to completely rid the body of reservoir virus or a functional HIV cure, where HIV may remain in reservoir cells but rebound to high levels is prevented after therapy interruption.Dr JAMES Herbal Medicine makes me believes there is a hope for people suffering from ACUTE MYELOFIBROSIS, ALZHEIMER's symptoms, BREAST CANCER, DIABETES, HAIR LOSS AND HAIR TREATMENT, KIDNEY DISEASES, LEUKEMIA, MYELOID LEUKEMIA, STEM CELL TREATMENT,Parkinson's disease,Schizophrenia,Cancer,Scoliosis,Fibromyalgia,Fluoroquinolone Toxicity
