Automatic Detection and Classification of Ca2+ Release Events in Confocal Line- and Frame-scan Images

Analysis of Ca2+ signals obtained in various cell types (i.e. cardiomyocytes) is always a trade-off between acquisition speed and signal-to-noise ratio of the fluorescence signal. This becomes especially apparent during fast two- or three-dimensional confocal imaging when local intracellular fluorescence signals originating from Ca2+ release from intracellular Ca2+ stores (e.g. sarcoplasmic reticulum, SR) need to be examined. Mathematical methods have been developed to remedy a high noise level by fitting each pixel with a transient function to "denoise" the image.

Lipid-conjugated rigidochromic probe discloses membrane alteration in model cells of Krabbe disease

The plasma membrane of cells has a complex architecture based on the bi-dimensional liquid-crystalline bilayer arrangement of phospho- and sphingolipids, which in turn embeds several proteins and is connected to the cytoskeleton. Several studies highlight the spatial membrane organization into more ordered (Lo or lipid raft) and more disordered (Ld) domains. We here report on a fluorescent analog of the green fluorescent protein (GFP) chromophore that, when conjugated to a phospholipid, enables the quantification of the Lo and Ld domains in living cells on account of its large fluorescence lifetime variation in the two phases.

LincRNA-p21 Inhibits Cell Viability and Promotes Cell Apoptosis in Parkinson’s Disease through Activating -Synuclein Expression

Long intergenic noncoding RNA-p21 (lincRNA-p21) has been reported to be increased in Parkinson's disease (PD). However, the function and underlying mechanisms of lincRNA-p21 remain not clear. In order to explore the role of lincRNA-p21 in PD, we used 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) to induce in vivo PD model (C57BL/6 mice) and utilized N-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+) to create in vitro PD model (SH-SY5Y cells). Results showed that the expression level of lincRNA-p21 was increased significantly in PD models. High abundance of lincRNA-p21 inhibited viability and promoted apoptosis markedly in SH-SY5Y cells treated with MPP+. Mechanistically, further experiments demonstrated that upregulation of lincRNA-p21 could sponge miR-1277-5p and indirectly increase the expression of α-synuclein to suppress viability and activate apoptosis in SH-SY5Y cells. In short, our study illustrated that lincRNA-p21/miR-1277-5p axis regulated viability and apoptosis in SH-SY5Y cells treated with MPP+ via targeting α-synuclein. LincRNA-p21 might be a novel target for PD.

Intention-to-treat analysis: Are we managing dropouts and missing data properly in research on orthodontic treatment? A systematic review

Intention-to-treat (ITT) analysis is an approach to managing dropouts and missing data in randomized controlled trials (RCTs). In this study, we systematically reviewed orthodontic RCTs to assess the frequency that an ITT analysis was carried out, to compare the number of trials that reported using ITT analyses with those that had truly used it, and to evaluate how dropouts and missing data were managed.

Direct Targeting of MYCN Gene Amplification by Site-Specific DNA Alkylation in Neuroblastoma

Amplification of MYCN plays a pivotal role in multiple types of tumors and correlates with poor prognosis in high-risk neuroblastoma. Despite recent advances in the treatment of neuroblastoma, no approaches directly target the master oncogene MYCN. Difficulties in targeting the MYCN protein inspired us to develop a new gene level inhibitory strategy using a sequence-specific gene regulator. Here we generated a MYCN-targeting pyrrole-imidazole (PI) polyamide, MYCN-A3, which directly binds to and alkylates DNA at homing motifs within the MYCN transcript. Pharmacological suppression of MYCN inhibited the proliferation of cancer cells harboring MYCN amplification compared with MYCN non-amplified cancer cells. In neuroblastoma xenograft mouse models, MYCN-A3 specifically downregulated MYCN expression and suppressed tumor progression with no detectable adverse effects and resulted in prolonged overall survival. Moreover, treatment with MYCN-A3, but not MYCN non-targeting PI polyamide, precipitated a copy number reduction of MYCN in neuroblastoma cells with MYCN amplification. These findings suggest that directly targeting MYCN with MYCN-A3 is a novel therapeutic approach to reduce copy number of the MYCN gene for MYCN-amplified neuroblastoma.

Inhibition of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 accelerates epithelial-mesenchymal transition and breast cancer metastasis via the CXCL12/CXCR4/mTOR axis

Dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-4 is a multifunctional glycoprotein involved in various biological and pathological processes. DPP-4 has been widely recognized as a therapeutic target for type 2 diabetes mellitus but is also implicated in the development of human malignancies. Here we show that inhibition of DPP-4 accelerates breast cancer metastasis via induction of CXCL12/CXCR4, which activates mTOR to promote epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). In cultured cells, DPP-4 knockdown induced EMT and cell migration. Treatment with the DPP-4 inhibitor KR62436 (KR) promoted primary tumor growth and lung metastasis in a 4T1 tumor allograft mouse model; DPP-4 knockdown in 4T1 cells displayed similar phenotypes in vivo and in vitro. KR treatment enhanced the levels of CXCL12/CXCR4 and phosphorylated mTOR, which were associated with the induction of EMT in metastatic cancer cells. KR-induced EMT in cancer cells was inhibited by treatment with the CXCR4 inhibitor AMD3100 or the mTOR inhibitor rapamycin, and AMD3100 suppressed KR-induced metastasis in vivo. Our findings suggest that DPP-4 plays a significant role in cancer biology and that inhibition of DPP-4 promotes cancer metastasis via induction of the CXCL12/CXCR4/mTOR/EMT axis.

A GYS2/p53 negative feedback loop restricts tumor growth in HBV-related hepatocellular carcinoma

Hepatocellular carcignogenesis is attributed to the reprogramming of cellular metabolism as consequence of the alteration in metabolite-related gene regulation. Identifying the mechanism of aberrant metabolism is of great potential to provide novel targets for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Here, we demonstrated that glycogen synthase 2 (GYS2) restricted tumor growth in HBV-related HCC via a negative feedback loop with p53. Expression of GYS2 was significantly downregulated in HCC and correlated with decreased glycogen content and unfavorable patient outcomes. GYS2 overexpression suppressed, whereas GYS2 knockdown facilitated cell proliferation in vitro and tumor growth in vivo via modulating p53 expression. GYS2 competitively bound to MDM2 to prevent p53 from MDM2-mediated ubiquitination and degradation. Furthermore, GYS2 enhanced the p300-induced acetylation of p53 at K373/382, which in turn inhibited the transcription of GYS2 in the support of HBx/HDAC1 complex. In summary, our findings suggest that GYS2 serves as a prognostic factor and functions as a tumor suppressor in HCC. The newly identified HBx/GYS2/p53 axis is responsible for the deregulation of glycogen metabolism and represents a promising therapeutic target for the clinical management of HCC.

Daily 800 mg versus 600 mg Efavirenz for HIV Patients Treating Tuberculosis with a Rifampicin-Based Regimen: An Open Label Randomized Controlled Trial

Objectives. Pharmacokinetics studies recommend increasing efavirenz dosage in tuberculosis/HIV patients using rifampicin. We aimed to evaluate efficacy and safety of 600 versus 800 mg of efavirenz in tuberculosis/HIV patients using rifampicin. Design. We conducted an open label, multicentre, randomized trial from 2006 to 2012. The primary outcome was the proportion of undetectable viral load (HIV-VL) within six months. Secondary outcomes were time to achieve primary endpoint, trajectories of HIV-VL, proportion of any adverse events (AE), proportion of severe and serious AE (SSAE), and time to treatment interruption due to SSAE. Methods. Efavirenz-naïve patients were randomized 30 days after rifampicin-containing regimens initiation to receive 600 (comparison arm) or 800 mg (intervention arm) efavirenz-based regimens and followed-up for 180 days. Results. Sixty-five and 67 participants were respectively included in the comparison and intervention arms with 64.6% (52.5%-65.1%) and 62.7% (50.7%-73.3%) attaining undetectable HIV-VL in six months. Median time to attain undetectable HIV-VL was 70 days in both arms, with HIV-VL overlapping trajectories during follow-up. Cough, acne, and dizziness were more frequent in the intervention arm. SSAE were observed in 19.1% (13.8%-25.8%) and 25.0% (18.9%-33.2%), respectively. Survival curves up to the first SSAE-attributed treatment interruption were similar. None of the differences were statistically significant. Conclusion. Efficacy of efavirenz was similar regardless of dosage. Differences regarding safety occurred as mild and transient events, which did not interfere with treatment. Similar efficacy and safety (SSAE) and lower tolerance (minor AE) in the intervention group favour the use of 600 mg efavirenz in patients using rifampicin.

Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation in Patients With Heart Failure A Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

Background:
Atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) frequently coexist and are associated with increased morbidity and mortality risk.
Purpose:
To compare benefits and harms between catheter ablation and drug therapy in adult patients with AF and HF.
Data Sources:
ClinicalTrials.gov, PubMed, Web of Science (Clarivate Analytics), EBSCO Information Services, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Google Scholar, and various scientific conference sessions from 1 January 2005 to 1 October 2018.
Study Selection:
Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published in English that had at least 6 months of follow-up and compared clinical outcomes of catheter ablation versus drug therapy in adults with AF and HF.
Data Extraction:
2 investigators independently extracted data and assessed study quality.
Data Synthesis:
6 RCTs involving 775 patients met inclusion criteria. Compared with drug therapy, AF ablation reduced all-cause mortality (9.0% vs. 17.6%; risk ratio [RR], 0.52 [95% CI, 0.33 to 0.81) and HF hospitalizations (16.4% vs. 27.6%; RR, 0.60 [CI, 0.39 to 0.93]). Ablation improved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (mean difference, 6.95% [CI, 3.0% to 10.9%]), 6-minute walk test distance (mean difference, 20.93 m [CI, 5.91 to 35.95 m]), peak oxygen consumption (Vo2max) (mean difference, 3.17 mL/kg per minute [CI, 1.26 to 5.07 mL/kg per minute]), and quality of life (mean difference in Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire score, −9.02 points [CI, −19.75 to 1.71 points]). Serious adverse events were more common in the ablation groups, although differences between the ablation and drug therapy groups were not statistically significant (7.2% vs. 3.8%; RR, 1.68 [CI, 0.58 to 4.85]).
Limitation:
Results driven primarily by 1 clinical trial, possible patient selection bias in the ablation group, lack of patient-level data, open-label trial designs, and heterogeneous follow-up length among trials.
Conclusion:
Catheter ablation was superior to conventional drug therapy in improving all-cause mortality, HF hospitalizations, LVEF, 6-minute walk test distance, Vo2max, and quality of life, with no statistically significant increase in serious adverse events.
Primary Funding Source:
None.

Aly and Mohamed have submitted itemized comments on the summary of the NIH sponsored workshop on bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). The comments reflect on the definition of BPD and its implications. A well-recognized concern is that all currently used definitions only include the oxygen and ventilatory treatments being delivered at a single gestational age, generally 36 weeks postconceptional age.1 There are currently no objective assessments of alveolar, vascular, and airway injuries. The inadequacy of using the therapy to define the disease can be resolved only with the development of predictive biomarkers and imaging technologies to better phenotype BPD.

The human skin microbiota is a rich source of bacteriocin producing staphylococci which kill human pathogens

Abstract
The demand for novel antimicrobial therapies due to the threat posed by antimicrobial resistance has resulted in a growing interest in the protective role of our skin bacteria, and the importance of competition between bacteria on the skin. A survey of the cultivable bacteria on human skin was undertaken to identify the capacity of the skin microbiota to produce bacteriocins with activity against skin pathogens. Twenty-one bacteriocins produced by bacteria isolated from seven sites from each subject exhibited inhibition spectra ranging from broad to narrow range, inhibiting many Gram-positive bacteria, including opportunistic skin pathogens such as Propionibacterium acnes (recently renamed Cutibacterium acnes), Staphylococcus epidermidis, and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Sequencing indicated that the antimicrobial-producing isolates were predominately species/strains of the Staphylococcus genus. Colony mass spectrometry revealed peptide masses which do not correspond to known bacteriocins. In an era where antibiotic resistance is of major concern, the inhibitory effect of novel bacteriocins from bacteria of skin origin demonstrates the antimicrobial potential that could be harnessed from within the human skin microbiota.

The main cause of death from cancer is associated with the development of metastases, resulting from the inability of current therapies to cure patients at metastatic stages. Generating preclinical models to better characterize the evolution of the disease is thus of utmost importance, in order to implement effective new cancer biomarkers and therapies. Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) are good candidates for generating preclinical models, making it possible to follow up the spatial and temporal heterogeneity of tumor tissues. This method is a non-invasive liquid biopsy that can be obtained at any stage of the disease. It partially summarizes the molecular heterogeneity of the corresponding tumors at a given time. Here, we discuss the CTC-derived models that have been generated so far, from simplified 2D cultures to the most complex CTC-derived explants (CDX models). We highlight the challenges and strengths of these preclinical tools, as well as some of the recent studies published using these models.

Anomalies of the genitourinary tract in children with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome

The 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS) involves multiple organ systems with variable phenotypic expression. Genitourinary tract abnormalities have been noted to be present in up to 30–40% of patients. At our institution, an internationally recognized, comprehensive, and multidisciplinary 22q11.2DS care center has been providing care to these children. We sought to report on the incidence of genitourinary tract anomalies in this large cohort and, therefore, retrospectively reviewed all patients who underwent a complete evaluation from 1992 to March 2017. We identified all children with any genital or urinary tract anomaly. For all children with a diagnosis of hydronephrosis, the underlying etiology was determined, when possible. Overall, 1,073 of 1,267 children with 22q11.2DS underwent renal evaluations at our institution. Hundered Sixty‐Two (15.1%) children had structural abnormalities of their kidneys/urinary tracts. The majority of children with hydronephrosis (63%) had isolated upper tract dilation without any additional diagnoses. Boys were significantly more likely to be diagnosed with a genital abnormality than girls (7.7 vs. 0.5%, p < 0.001). Of the 649 boys in the entire cohort, 24 (3.7%) had cryptorchidism and 24 (3.7%) had hypospadias, which was noted to be mild in all except one boy. Overall, findings of hydronephrosis, unilateral renal agenesis, and multicystic dysplastic kidney occur at higher rates than expected in the general population. Given these findings, in addition to routine physical examination, we believe that all patients with 22q11.2DS warrant screening RBUS at time of diagnosis.

We describe a case of disseminated mucormycosis (Apophysomyces elegans) diagnosed on autopsy, in a man who had been working in construction with undiagnosed neutropenia from hairy-cell leukemia, which is rarely associated with invasive mold infections. Galactomannan values in both blood and bronchoalveolar lavage were strongly positive. There is an unmet need for accurate noninvasive fungal diagnostic tests. Detailed history, including occupational exposures, can be more informative than laboratory workup.
