Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated the impact of opening the lateral ventricle during surgery on post-surgical complications in patients with high-grade gliomas (HGG), comparing outcomes of those who had the ventricle opened versus those who did not.
- A total of 380 patients were studied, with a median overall survival (OS) of 16.6 months and progression-free survival (PFS) of 10.9 months, revealing some complications but not directly linked to the ventricle opening.
- The findings suggest that opening the lateral ventricles does not significantly increase the risk of complications such as dissemination or hydrocephalus, and it may be necessary for achieving better surgical removal of the tumor.
The light-harvesting complex II (LHCII) is the main energy absorber for photosynthesis in green plants, and its translocation between photosystems I and II is the primary means of energy redistribution between them. Using single-particle tracking, we performed the first measurement of the mobility of LHCII in the photosynthetic membranes in both the nonphosphorylated and the phosphorylated (P-LHCII) conformations. These are part of an important, reversible, energy re-equilibration process called the state transition.
