In motoneurons, spatiotemporal dendritic patterns are established in the ventral nerve cord. While many guidance cues have been identified, the mechanisms of temporal regulation remain unknown. Previously, we identified the actin modulator Cdc42 GTPase as a key factor in this process.

In particular, the comparative cost-effectiveness of rTMS and other treatment options, such as antidepressant medication, has not been investigated.
Methods: An economic evaluation with 12 months follow-up was conducted in the Dutch care setting as part of a pragmatic multicenter randomized controlled trial, in which patients with treatment-resistant depression were randomized to treatment with rTMS or treatment with the next pharmacological step according to the treatment algorithm.
Motile cilia are unique organelles with the ability to autonomously move. Force generated by beating cilia propels cells and moves fluids. The ciliary skeleton is made of peripheral doublet microtubules and a central pair (CP) with a distinct structure at the tip.

Motile cilia contain a myriad of different proteins that assemble into an array of distinct machines, and understanding the interactions and functional hierarchies among them presents an important challenge. Here, we defined the protein interactome of motile axonemes using cross-linking mass spectrometry in Tetrahymena thermophila.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) remains the serious global health and social burden that has increased over the past few decades. It progresses silently to vascular injury and disability of injured vascular-perfused tissues/organs.
