To understand why mammals generally do not regenerate injured organs, we considered the exceptional case of spontaneous skin regeneration in the early lamb fetus. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/epz-5676.html Whereas during the early fetal stage skin wounds heal by regeneration, in the late fetal stage, and after birth, skin wounds close instead by scar formation. We review independent evidence that this switch in wound healing response coincides with the onset of wound contraction, which is also enabled during late fetal gestation. The crucial role of wound contraction in determining the wound healing outcome in adults has been demonstrated in three mammalian models of severe injury (excised guinea pig skin, transected rat sciatic nerve, excised rabbit conjunctival stroma) where grafting the injury with DRT, a contraction-blocking scaffold of highly-specific structure, altered significantly the wound healing outcome. While spontaneous healing resulted in scar formation in these animal models, DRT grafting significantly reduced the extent of wound contraction, prevented scar synthesis, and resulted in partial regeneration. These findings, as well as independent data from species that heal spontaneously via regeneration, point to a striking hypothesis The process of regeneration lies dormant in mammals until appropriately activated by injury. In spontaneous wound healing of the late fetus and in adult mammals, wound contraction impedes such endogenous regeneration mechanisms. However, engineered treatments, such as DRT, that block wound contraction can cancel its effects and favor wound healing by regeneration instead of scar formation.Macrolides and ketolides comprise a family of clinically important antibiotics that inhibit protein synthesis by binding within the exit tunnel of the bacterial ribosome. While these antibiotics are known to interrupt translation at specific sequence motifs, with ketolides predominantly stalling at Arg/Lys-X-Arg/Lys motifs and macrolides displaying a broader specificity, a structural basis for their context-specific action has been lacking. Here, we present structures of ribosomes arrested during the synthesis of an Arg-Leu-Arg sequence by the macrolide erythromycin (ERY) and the ketolide telithromycin (TEL). Together with deep mutagenesis and molecular dynamics simulations, the structures reveal how ERY and TEL interplay with the Arg-Leu-Arg motif to induce translational arrest and illuminate the basis for the less stringent sequence-specific action of ERY over TEL. Because programmed stalling at the Arg/Lys-X-Arg/Lys motifs is used to activate expression of antibiotic resistance genes, our study also provides important insights for future development of improved macrolide antibiotics.The bilateral effects of deep brain stimulation (DBS) on motor and non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD) have been extensively studied and reviewed. However, the unilateral effects-in particular, the potential lateralized effects of left- versus right-sided DBS-have not been adequately recognized or studied. Here we summarized the current evidence and controversies in the literature regarding the lateralized effects of DBS on motor and non-motor outcomes in PD patients. Publications in English language before February 2021 were obtained from the PubMed database and included if they directly compared the effects of unilateral versus contralateral side DBS on motor or non-motor outcomes in PD. The current literature is overall of low-quality and is biased by various confounders. Researchers have investigated mainly PD patients receiving subthalamic nucleus (STN) DBS while the potential lateralized effects of globus pallidus interna (GPi) DBS have not been adequately studied. Evidence suggests potential lateralized effects of STN DBS on axial motor symptoms and deleterious effects of left-sided DBS on language-related functions, in particular, the verbal fluency, in PD. The lateralized DBS effects on appendicular motor symptoms as well as other neurocognitive and neuropsychiatric domains remain inconclusive. Future studies should control for varying methodological approaches as well as clinical and DBS management heterogeneities, including symptom laterality, stimulation parameters, location of active contacts, and lead trajectories. This would contribute to improved treatment strategies such as personalized target selection, surgical planning, and postoperative management that ultimately benefit patients.Age-related hearing loss was recently established as the largest modifiable risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD), however, the reasons for this link remain unclear. We investigate shared underlying genetic associations using results from recent large genome-wide association studies (GWAS) on adult hearing difficulty and AD. Genetic correlation and Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis do not support a genetic correlation between the disorders, but suggest a direct causal link from AD genetic risk to hearing difficulty, driven by APOE. Systematic MR analyses on the effect of other traits revealed shared effects of glutamine, gamma-glutamylglutamine, and citrate levels on reduced risk of both hearing difficulty and AD. In addition, pathway analysis on GWAS risk variants suggests shared function in neuronal signalling pathways as well as etiology of diabetes and cardiovascular disease. However, after multiple testing corrections, neither analysis led to statistically significant associations. Altogether, our genetic-driven analysis suggests hearing difficulty and AD are linked by a shared vulnerability in molecular pathways rather than by a shared genetic architecture.The human oral and gut commensal microbes play vital roles in the development and maintenance of immune homeostasis, while its association with susceptibility and severity of SARS-CoV-2 infection is barely understood. In this study, we investigated the dynamics of the oral and intestinal flora before and after the clearance of SARS-CoV-2 in 53 COVID-19 patients, and then examined their microbiome alterations in comparison to 76 healthy individuals. A total of 140 throat swab samples and 81 fecal samples from these COVID-19 patients during hospitalization, and 44 throat swab samples and 32 fecal samples from sex and age-matched healthy individuals were collected and then subjected to 16S rRNA sequencing and viral load inspection. We found that SARS-CoV-2 infection was associated with alterations of the microbiome community in patients as indicated by both alpha and beta diversity indexes. Several bacterial taxa were identified related to SARS-CoV-2 infection, wherein elevated Granulicatella and Rothia mucilaginosa were found in both oral and gut microbiome.
