Engineering a vanillate-producing strain of Pseudomonas sp. NGC7 corresponding to aromatic compounds derived from the continuous catalytic alkaline oxidation of sulfite lignin.

Introduction: Lignin is a promising resource for obtaining aromatic materials, however, its heterogeneous structure poses a challenge for effective utilization. One approach to produce homogeneous aromatic materials from lignin involves the application of microbial catabolism, which is gaining attention. This current study focused on constructing a catabolic pathway in Pseudomonas sp.

Flower-Shaped Plasma Cells in Multiple Myeloma with Morphological Heterogeneity.

Background: Flower-shaped nuclei in plasma cells are rare in multiple myeloma.

Case Presentation: We report on an 88-year-old male who presented with a mass lesion in the clavicular region. A biopsy of the mass revealed an increase in mature plasma cells with round nuclei.

Utilizing Clinical Transformation Criteria for Prognostic Stratification in Follicular Lymphoma Prior to Initial Immunochemotherapy.

Background: Although the prognosis of follicular lymphoma (FL) has improved, some patients experience early disease progression, including progression of disease within 24 months (POD24). Histological transformation is a critical event in FL. However, the heterogeneity of FL tumors makes it challenging to diagnose transformation accurately.

Direct catalytic oxidation of rice husk lignin with hydroxide nanorod-modified copper foam and muconate production by engineered Pseudomonas sp. NGC7.

For the direct alkaline oxidation of rice husk lignin, we developed a copper foam-based heterogeneous catalyst that offers advantages in its recovery after the reaction mixture. The depolymerized products were utilized for muconate production by an engineered Pseudomonas sp. NGC7-based strain.

C-Mannosyl tryptophan is a novel biomarker for thrombocytosis of myeloproliferative neoplasms.

C-Mannosyl tryptophan (CMW), a unique glycosylated amino acid, is considered to be produced by degradation of C-mannosylated proteins in living organism. Although protein C-mannosylation is involved in the folding and secretion of substrate proteins, the pathophysiological function in the hematological system is still unclear. This study aimed to assess CMW in the human hematological disorders.
