Neurodegenerative diseases are significant health concerns that have a profound impact on the quality and duration of life for millions of individuals. These diseases are characterized by pathological changes in various brain regions, specific genetic mutations associated with the disease, deposits of abnormal proteins, and the degeneration of neurological cells. As neurodegenerative disorders vary in their epidemiological characteristics and vulnerability of neurons, treatment of these diseases is usually aimed at slowing disease progression.

Complex transcription regulation of acidic chitinase suggests fine-tuning of digestive processes in Drosera binata.

Planta

January 2025

Institute of Plant Genetics and Biotechnology, Plant Science and Biodiversity Center, Slovak Academy of Sciences, Akademicka 2, P. O. Box 39A, 950 07, Nitra, Slovak Republic.

DbChitI-3, Drosera binata's acidic chitinase, peaks at pH 2.5 from 15 °C to 30 °C. Gene expression is stimulated by polysaccharides and suppressed by monosaccharide digestion, implying a feedback loop in its transcriptional regulation.

Article Synopsis
  • Pseudomonas aeruginosa is problematic in healthcare due to its high antibiotic resistance, highlighting the need for new antimicrobial solutions.
  • A study focused on isolating a new bacteriocin from Enterococcus faecium found in stool samples, which showed promise against multidrug-resistant P. aeruginosa.
  • The purified bacteriocin, enterocin GH, demonstrated significant antibacterial and antibiofilm activity against P. aeruginosa, outperforming controls in laboratory tests.

Cowden Syndrome and Oral Lesions: A Case Report Using MLPA.

Am J Case Rep

January 2025

Research Institute of Dentistry, Department of Integral Dental Clinics, University Center of Health Sciences, Universidad de Guadalajara, Guadalajara, Mexico.

BACKGROUND Cowden syndrome is a genetic disorder that predisposes individuals to cancer and is characterized by hamartomas derived from 3 germ layers. Although the clinical signs can be pathognomonic, diagnosis is often aided by biopsies, histopathological examination of oral and cutaneous lesions, and genetic studies, including multiple ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA). CASE REPORT We report a case of a 35-year-old woman who manifested with multiple lesions in the buccal mucosa, dorsum of the tongue, and gums, along with papillomatous papules on her facial skin and the dorsal surfaces of her hands.
