Article Synopsis
- Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN) is a kidney condition identified through biopsy, with various causes, and this study explores data from a UK renal center over 20 years.* -
- The study involved 38 identified patients, primarily older (median age 61), with a significant percentage suffering from immune complex-mediated MPGN, and highlighted treatment approaches and clinical outcomes.* -
- Findings indicated that nearly 50% of patients progressed to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) or died, suggesting the need for personalized patient management and further research to improve understanding and outcomes.*
Article Synopsis
- Tyk2, part of the JAK kinase family, plays a key role in inflammation and is linked to autoimmune disorders.
- Targeting Tyk2 selectively could lead to fewer side effects than traditional JAK inhibitors, prompting increased research into its therapeutic potential.
- The drug Deucravacitinib is now approved for psoriasis, and other Tyk2 inhibitors are being studied for various autoimmune diseases like psoriatic arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease.
Identification and analysis of proline-rich proteins and hybrid proline-rich proteins super family genes from and their expression patterns to abiotic stress and zinc stimuli.

September 2022
Systematic genome-wide analysis of revealed the identification of a total of 48 homologous genes comprising 21 proline-rich proteins () and 27 hybrid proline-rich proteins (). Comprehensive scrutiny of these gene homologs was conducted for gene structure, phylogenetic investigations, chromosome mapping, and subcellular localization of proteins. Promoter analysis uncovered the regions rich with phosphorous- (BIHD), ammonium-, sulfur-responsive (SURE), and iron starvation-responsive (IRO2) along with biotic, abiotic, and development-specific -elements.
