TET3 regulates terminal cell differentiation at the metabolic level.

TET-family members play a critical role in cell fate commitment. Indeed, TET3 is essential to postnatal development due to yet unknown reasons. To define TET3 function in cell differentiation, we have profiled the intestinal epithelium at single-cell level from wild-type and Tet3 knockout mice.

Validation of the hip disability osteoarthritis outcome Score-12 shortform in a German cohort.

Introduction: To consider the inherent respondent burden of PROMs, the HOOS-12 as a shortform of the well-established HOOS questionnaire has been published. While the HOOS-12 has been validated in an initial study, further evaluation in other, non-English speaking cohorts is necessary. We therefore aimed to evaluate responsiveness, convergent construct validity, internal consistency, and floor and ceiling effects of the HOOS-12 in a cross-sectoral german cohort.

High patient satisfaction with Customized Total Knee Arthroplasty at five year follow-up.

Purpose: Despite numerous studies demonstrating promising short-term outcomes of Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) with Customized Individually Made (CIM) implants, there is a significant lack of data on their mid-term effectiveness. Given the increasing number of TKAs performed annually, the rising demand for CIM implants, and the associated burden of revision surgeries, understanding the mid-term performance of CIM implants is crucial. Therefore, this study aims to report on the mid-term (minimum 5 years) outcomes of TKA using a CIM implant.

NPY-mediated synaptic plasticity in the extended amygdala prioritizes feeding during starvation.

Efficient control of feeding behavior requires the coordinated adjustment of complex motivational and affective neurocircuits. Neuropeptides from energy-sensing hypothalamic neurons are potent feeding modulators, but how these endogenous signals shape relevant circuits remains unclear. Here, we examine how the orexigenic neuropeptide Y (NPY) adapts GABAergic inputs to the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST).
