Then, we found that GroEL-enhanced gelatinase activity was mediated through activation of NF-κB signaling. Acetylated NF-κB accumulated in the cell nucleus and bound to the promoter of MMP-2 and MMP-9 genes, thus initiating their high expression. This study reveals a direct interaction between oral bacteria and adult cells by demonstrating that gelatinase secretion is induced by GroEL, which partially explains bone resorption through gelatinase activation.

Treatment of children with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) now includes disease modifying drugs such as nusinersen. Real-world data can provide new insight on the efficacy and safety of nusinersen for treatment of children with SMA. The aim of our study is to evaluate the effect of treatment of children and young adults with SMA type I, II and III at various stages of the disease after 14 months of treatment with nusinersen. In this prospective, two-center (in Slovenia and Czech Republic) study, data from all patients with a genetically confirmed diagnosis of SMA before 19 years of age who were treated with nusinersen were collected before initiation of treatment, and after 6 and 14 months of treatment. Various standardized motor scales and a questionnaire that focused on daily-life activities were used. Form both centers, 61 patients from 2 months to 19 years of age were enrolled in the study. Sixteen had SMA type I (median age 5.2 years); 32 had SMA type II (median age 8.9 years); and 13 had SMA type ajor side effects, requiring discontinuation of treatment, were reported. There is an unmet need for novel standardized tests and biomarkers, which could help guide clinici
