Here, we report the generation of a novel CRISPR-Cas9 tecpr2 knockout (tecpr2-/-) mouse that exhibits behavioral pathologies observed in SPG49 patients. tecpr2-/- mice develop neurodegenerative patterns in an age-dependent manner, manifested predominantly as neuroaxonal dystrophy in the gracile (GrN) and cuneate nuclei (CuN) of the medulla oblongata in the brainstem and dorsal white matter column of the spinal cord. Age-dependent correlation with accumulation of autophagosomes suggests compromised targeting to lysosome. Taken together, our findings establish the tecpr2 knockout mouse as a potential model for SPG49 and ascribe a new role to TECPR2 in macroautophagy/autophagy-related neurodegenerative disorders.Introduction The Khorana score (KS) is used to predict the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) for cancer patients. We sought to assess the association between KS and VTE for patients who underwent robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC). Materials and Methods We reviewed our prospectively maintained quality assurance RARC database between 2005 and 2020. KS was calculated for all patients (one point for each body mass index [BMI] ≥35 kg/m2, platelet count ≥350 × 109/L, leukocyte count >11 × 109/L, and hemoglobin level less then 10 g/dL, or use of erythropoiesis-stimulating agents). All patients received one point by default for the cancer type (bladder). Patients were divided into intermediate-risk (KS 1-2) or high-risk (KS ≥3) groups. Receiver operating characteristic curve was used to assess the ability of KS to predict VTE. Kaplan-Meier curves were stratified based on their KS risk and used to depict overall survival (OS).
