Transfer of musculoskeletal care from paediatric to adult services for patients with cerebral palsy and chronic neuromuscular conditions: Identifying the unmet need.

Introduction: Children with cerebral palsy (CP) are treated by well-co-ordinated multi-disciplinary neuromuscular teams. With a comprehensive multidisciplinary team, co-ordinating the transfer to adult care is a challenge. Orthopaedic care becomes fragmented as patients transfer from paediatric orthopaedic surgeons with training in multi-joint neuromuscular conditions (NMCs), to adult orthopaedic surgeons where this expertise rarely exists.

USP34 regulates endothelial PAR1 mRNA transcript expression and cellular signaling.

Signaling by G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) is regulated by temporally distinct processes including receptor desensitization, internalization, and lysosomal sorting, and are tightly controlled by post-translational modifications. While the role of phosphorylation in regulating GPCR signaling is well studied and established, the mechanisms by which other post-translational modifications, such as ubiquitination, regulate GPCR signaling are not clearly defined. We hypothesize that GPCR ubiquitination and deubiquitination is critical for proper signaling and cellular responses.
