We report new measurements of the neutron charge form factor at low momentum transfer using quasielastic electrodisintegration of the deuteron. Longitudinally polarized electrons at an energy of 850 MeV were scattered from an isotopically pure, highly polarized deuterium gas target. The scattered electrons and coincident neutrons were measured by the Bates Large Acceptance Spectrometer Toroid (BLAST) detector. The neutron form factor ratio GEn/GMn was extracted from the beam-target vector asymmetry AedV at four-momentum transfers Q2=0.14, 0.20, 0.29, and 0.42 (GeV/c)2.

The Apoprotein E4 isotype does not affect the severity of COVID-19 infection and other flu-like syndromes.
J Med Microbiol

Departamento de Bioqumica e Imunologia, Instituto de Cincias Biolgicas, Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais.
Apolipoprotein E (ApoE), especially the ApoE4 isotype, is suggested to influence the severity of respiratory viral infections; however, this association is still unclear. The presence of allele ε4 impacts the development of flu-like syndromes. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of the Apo E4 isoform on the severity and duration of flu-like syndromes, including the coronavirus disease COVID-19.

Importance: Baseline cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) and APOE ε4 allele copy number are important risk factors for amyloid-related imaging abnormalities in patients with Alzheimer disease (AD) receiving therapies to lower amyloid-β plaque levels.
Objective: To provide prevalence estimates of any, no more than 4, or fewer than 2 CMBs in association with amyloid status, APOE ε4 copy number, and age.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This cross-sectional study used data included in the Amyloid Biomarker Study data pooling initiative (January 1, 2012, to the present [data collection is ongoing]).
Effect of Lipidation on the Structure, Oligomerization, and Aggregation of Glucagon-like Peptide 1.

Lipidated analogues of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) have gained enormous attention as long-acting peptide therapeutics for type 2 diabetes and also antiobesity treatment. Commercially available therapeutic lipidated GLP-1 analogues, semaglutide and liraglutide, have the great advantage of prolonged half-lives of hours and days instead of minutes as is the case for native GLP-1. A crucial factor in the development of novel lipidated therapeutic peptides is their physical stability, which greatly influences manufacturing and drug product development.

Background: Aging-related comorbidities are more common in people with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) compared to people without HIV. The gut microbiome may play a role in healthy aging; however, this relationship remains unexplored in the context of HIV.
Methods: 16S rRNA gene sequencing was conducted on stool from 1409 women (69% with HIV; 2304 samples) and 990 men (54% with HIV; 1008 samples) in the MACS/WIHS Combined Cohort Study.
Super-Resolution Fluorescence Imaging Reveals the Mechanism of NRP1 Clustering on Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer Membranes.

Neuropilin 1 (NRP1) is upregulated in various types of malignant tumors, especially non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the precise mechanisms for membrane localization and regulation are not fully understood. Observations from super-resolution microscopy have revealed that NRP1 tends to form nanoscale clusters on the cell membrane, with these clusters varying significantly in size and density across different regions.
