Mass spectral libraries are collections of reference spectra, usually associated with specific analytes from which the spectra were generated, that are used for further downstream analysis of new spectra. There are many different formats used for encoding spectral libraries, but none have undergone a standardization process to ensure broad applicability to many applications. As part of the Human Proteome Organization Proteomics Standards Initiative (PSI), we have developed a standardized format for encoding spectral libraries, called mzSpecLib (https://psidev.

Background: The development of communication, speech and language follows three stages (development of the parent-child relationship, interactions and actual speech and language acquisition). Children born with cleft lip and/or palate are at increased risk of communicative problems while parents may be going through an emotionally difficult time. Early parent-implemented logopaedic intervention that supports both parents and child is important.

Article Synopsis
  • - SARS-CoV-2 infection can cause both immediate and long-lasting neurological issues, complicating the understanding of the virus's impact on the brain after COVID-19.
  • - Research using brain models and samples shows that while SARS-CoV-2 can infect neural cells, the extent is low, but it can lead to abnormal changes in synapses and electrical activity in the brain.
  • - The study found that treating brain organoids with a specific compound could help restore normal brain activity and reduce the negative effects caused by the virus at synapses, highlighting potential avenues for understanding and treating COVID-19-related brain complications.

Background: IgE-mediated cow's milk allergy (IgE-CMA) is one of the first allergies to arise in early childhood and may result from exposure to various milk allergens, of which β-lactoglobulin (BLG) and casein are the most important. Understanding the underlying mechanisms behind IgE-CMA is imperative for the discovery of novel biomarkers and the design of innovative treatment and prevention strategies.

Methods: We report a longitudinal in vivo murine model, in which two mice strains (BALB/c and C57Bl/6) were sensitized to BLG using either cholera toxin or an oil emulsion (n = 6 per group).

Article Synopsis
  • Public proteomics data usually don’t have important extra information, which makes it less useful.
  • We created a tool called lesSDRF that makes it easier to add this extra information, called metadata.
  • This helps make sure the data can be really helpful for a long time after it’s first shared.
