  • - The study aimed to assess the risks of menstrual disturbances and bleeding in premenopausal and postmenopausal women following SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in Sweden, including over 2.9 million participants.
  • - Researchers focused on the effects of different vaccine types and dosages, analyzing healthcare contacts related to menstrual issues before and after menopause during specific time windows post-vaccination.
  • - Results indicated a higher risk of postmenopausal bleeding after the third vaccine dose, particularly within the first week and up to 90 days afterward, with an increased risk of about 23-33% associated with certain vaccine types.

Spinocerebellar ataxia type 7 (SCA7) and other polyglutamine (polyQ) diseases are caused by expansions of polyQ repeats in disease-specific proteins. Aggregation of the polyQ proteins resulting in various forms of cellular stress, that could induce the stress granule (SG) response, is believed to be a common pathological mechanism in these disorders. SGs can contribute to cell survival but have also been suggested to exacerbate disease pathology by seeding protein aggregation.

The image analysis tool FRIC (Fluorescence Ratiometric Imaging of Chromatin) quantitatively monitors dynamic spatiotemporal distribution of euchromatin and total chromatin in live cells. A vector (pTandemH) assures stoichiometrically constant expression of the histone variants Histone 3.3 and Histone 2B, fused to EGFP and mCherry, respectively.
