Diagnosis and management of eosinophilic esophagitis and esophageal food impaction in adults : A position paper issued by the Austrian Society of Gastroenterology and Hepatology (ÖGGH).

This position paper deals with an expert consensus on diagnosis and management of eosinophilic esophagitis and esophageal food impaction issued by the Austrian Eosinophilic Esophagitis Network, a working group under the patronage of the Austrian Society of Gastroenterology and Hepatology (ÖGGH). In need of a standardized approach on the management of EoE, recommendations were made based on international guidelines and landmark studies.

A set of cross-correlated relaxation experiments to probe the correlation time of two different and complementary spin pairs.

Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) defy the conventional structure-function paradigm by lacking a well-defined tertiary structure and exhibiting inherent flexibility. This flexibility leads to distinctive spin relaxation modes, reflecting isolated and specific motions within individual peptide planes. In this work, we propose a new pulse sequence to measure the longitudinal C CSA-C-C DD CCR rate [Formula: see text] and present a novel 3D version of the transverse [Formula: see text] CCR rate, adopting the symmetrical reconversion approach.

Decorating phenylalanine side-chains with triple labeled C/F/H isotope patterns.

We present an economic and straightforward method to introduce C-F spin systems into the deuterated aromatic side chains of phenylalanine as reporters for various protein NMR applications. The method is based on the synthesis of [4-C, 2,3,5,6-H] 4-fluorophenylalanine from the commercially available isotope sources [2-C] acetone and deuterium oxide. This compound is readily metabolized by standard Escherichia coli overexpression in a glyphosate-containing minimal medium, which results in high incorporation rates in the corresponding target proteins.

Bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein instructs dendritic cells to elicit Th22 cell response.

Neutrophil-derived bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein (BPI) is known for its bactericidal activity against gram-negative bacteria and neutralization of lipopolysaccharide. Here, we define BPI as a potent activator of murine dendritic cells (DCs). As shown in GM-CSF-cultured, bone-marrow-derived cells (BMDCs), BPI induces a distinct stimulation profile including IL-2, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor expression.

Safety, feasibility, and short-term-outcome of anal endoscopic submucosal dissection for anal intraepithelial neoplasia: an option for focal lesions?

Background: Anal intraepithelial neoplasia (AIN) appears in three different stages. AIN 1 and AIN 2 (p16 negative) are defined as low risk and unlikely to progress to invasive anal cancer. AIN 2 (p16 positive) and AIN 3 are of high risk and should be treated because progression rates to anal cancer are around 10% and treatment significantly reduces this risk.
