Screening for natural products that affect Wnt signaling activity
AbstractWnt signaling has been implicated in numerous aspects of development, cell biology, and physiology. When aberrantly activated, Wnt signaling can also lead to the formation of tumors. Thus, Wnt signaling is an attractive target for cancer therapy. Based on our screening program targeting Wnt signaling activity using a cell-based luciferase screening system assessing TCF/ β-catenin transcriptional activity, we isolated a series of terpenoids and heterocyclic aromatic compounds that affect the...

Assessing circovirus gene flow in multiple spill-over events
Abstract The establishment of viral pathogens in new host environments following spillover events probably requires adaptive changes within both the new host and pathogen. After many generations, signals for ancient cross-species transmission may become lost and a strictly host-adapted phylogeny may mimic true co-divergence while the virus may retain an inherent ability to jump host species. The mechanistic basis for such processes remains poorly understood. To study the dynamics...

Nasal respiration entrains neocortical long‐range gamma coherence during wakefulness
Abstract Recent studies have shown that slow cortical potentials in archi‐, paleo‐ and neocortex can phase‐lock with nasal respiration. In some of these areas’ gamma activity (γ: 30‐100 Hz) is also coupled to the animal's respiration. It has been hypothesized that these functional relationships play a role in coordinating distributed neural activity. In a similar way, inter‐cortical interactions at γ frequency have also been associated as a binding mechanism by which the brain generates temporary...

Microglia cytoarchitecture in the brain of adenosine A2A receptor knockout mice: brain region and sex specificities
Abstract Microglia cells exert a critical role in brain development, mainly supported by their immune functions, which predicts an impact on the genesis of psychiatric disorders. In fact, microglia stress during gestation is, for instance, associated with chronic anxiety and cognitive deficits accompanied by long‐lasting, region‐ and sex‐specific changes in microglia morphology. We recently reported that the pattern of microglia morphologic plasticity, which is sex‐determined, impacts on anxious‐like...

Pathological responses to single pulse electrical stimuli in epilepsy: the role of feedforward inhibition
Abstract Delineation of epileptogenic cortex in focal epilepsy patients may profit from single pulse electrical stimulation during intracranial EEG recordings. Single pulse electrical stimulation evokes early and delayed responses. Early responses represent connectivity. Delayed responses are a biomarker for epileptogenic cortex, but up till now, the precise mechanism generating delayed responses remains elusive. We used a data‐driven modelling approach to study early and delayed responses. We...

Subtle changes of gray matter volume in fibromyalgia reflect chronic musculoskeletal pain rather than disease‐specific effects
Abstract Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) is a chronic pain syndrome. Neuroimaging studies provided evidence of altered gray matter volume (GMV) in FMS but, similarly, in chronic pain of other origin as well. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the disease specificity of GMV alterations in FMS by direct comparison. Structural MRI data of the brain were acquired in 25 females with FMS and two different control groups: 21 healthy subjects and 23 patients with osteoarthritis. Regional GMVs...

PD-L1 expression in gastric cancer determined by digital image analyses: pitfalls and correlation with pathologist interpretation
Abstract Programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) immunohistochemistry is used to predict response to anti-PD-L1 therapy. However, intra- and inter-observer variability influence the prediction of PD-L1 expression. Unlike evaluations of non–small cell lung cancer according to PD-L1 expression determined by tumor proportion score, gastric cancer is evaluated using combined positive scores. We aimed to compare the results of digital image analysis and pathologists’ interpretations for predicting...

What is new in endothelial neoplasia?
Abstract The classification of vascular neoplasms continues to evolve as we accumulate more genetic and clinical data, particularly for rare tumor types. Because of tumor rarity, changes to classification schema, overlapping histologic features, and in some cases, lack of morphologic evidence of vasoformation, vascular neoplasms present a diagnostic challenge. Here, we discuss recent developments in our understanding of vascular tumors, with a detailed discussion of epithelioid...

Functional symptoms in dermatology: Part 1
Abstract Functional – or somatoform – symptoms are those that arise with no proven organic pathology. Also known as ‘medically unexplained’ symptoms, they can present in any medical speciality, including dermatology. Mucocutaneous pain syndromes and functional pruritus are two examples of functional disorders encountered by dermatologists. Patients presenting with somatoform symptoms have paradoxically complex and often subjectively severe symptomatology, yet minimal abnormalities on clinical examination...

Telomere-binding proteins Taz1 and Rap1 regulate DSB repair and suppress gross chromosomal rearrangements in fission yeast
by Hiroyuki Irie, Io Yamamoto, Yusuke Tarumoto, Sanki Tashiro, Kurt W. Runge, Fuyuki Ishikawa Genomic rearrangements (gross chromosomal rearrangements, GCRs) threatens genome integrity and cause cell death or tumor formation. At the terminus of linear chromosomes, a telomere-binding protein complex, called shelterin, ensures chromosome stability by preventing chromosome end-to-end fusions and regulating telomere length homeostasis. As such, shelterin-mediated telomere functions play a pivotal...
