Background: There is limited knowledge on long-term outcomes of tapering treatment for individuals with problematic use of prescription narcotics, including opioids and benzodiazepines. The overall aim of the study is to investigate clinical trajectories and treatment outcomes of patients seeking treatment in addiction care.

Methods: This paper presents the study protocol and baseline characteristics of a cohort of patients seeking treatment for problematic use of prescription narcotic drugs at specialized outpatient addiction services.

Quantitative transcriptomics offers a new way to obtain a detailed picture of freshly isolated cells. By direct isolation, the cells are unaffected by in vitro culture, and the isolation at cold temperatures maintains the cells relatively unaltered in phenotype by avoiding activation through receptor cross-linking or plastic adherence. Simultaneous analysis of several cell types provides the opportunity to obtain detailed pictures of transcriptomic differences between them.

Article Synopsis
  • The study presents the complete genome sequences of two bacterial species, CB63 and FWC43, which were isolated from different aquatic environments.
  • CB63 has a chromosome size of 3.60 megabases (Mb), while FWC43 has a larger chromosome of 3.97 Mb and an additional plasmid measuring 157 kilobases (kb).
  • This research contributes to the understanding of the genetic makeup of dimorphic prosthecate bacteria, which can have implications for environmental science and wastewater management.

Background: Therapies targeting IL-5 or its receptor (IL-5Rα) are currently used to treat patients with severe eosinophilic asthma.

Objective: We sought to investigate the impact of anti-IL-5 and anti-IL-5Rα biological therapies on mast cells (MCs) and their progenitors.

Methods: Surface IL-5Rα expression was investigated on MCs and their progenitors in mouse lungs and bone marrow and in human lungs and blood.
