Effect of Cytoskeletal Linker Protein GAS2L1 on Oligodendrocyte and Myelin Development.

Glia

January 2025

Key Laboratory of Brain, Cognition and Education Sciences of Ministry of Education; Institute for Brain Research and Rehabilitation, Guangdong Key Laboratory of Mental Health and Cognitive Science, and Center for Studies of Psychological Application, South China Normal University, Guangzhou, China.

Oligodendrocytes (OLs), the myelin-forming cells of the central nervous system (CNS), develop from OL precursor cells (OPCs) through a complex process involving significant morphological changes that are critically dependent on the dynamic interactions between cytoskeletal networks. Growth arrest-specific 2-like protein 1 (GAS2L1) is a cytoskeletal linker protein that mediates the cross-talk between actin filaments and microtubules. However, its role in OL and myelin development remains unknown.

Impact of Complications on Survival Outcomes in Different Temporary Mechanical Circulatory Support Techniques: A Large Retrospective Cohort Study of Cardiac Surgical and Non-surgical Patients.

J Heart Lung Transplant

DZHK (German Centre for Cardiovascular Research), Partner Site Berlin, 13353 Berlin, Germany; Deutsches Herzzentrum der Charité, Department of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery, Berlin, Germany. Charité-Universitätsmedizin Berlin, Corporate Member of Freie Universität Berlin, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Charitéplatz 1, 10117 Berlin, Germany.

Background: Temporary mechanical circulatory support (tMCS) devices have become a standard treatment option in cardiogenic shock but are associated with high complication rates. This study analyzes common complications associated with modern tMCS devices and their impact on mortality depending on the tMCS approach.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective single-center analysis of patients with all-cause cardiogenic shock treated with veno-arterial extracorporeal life support, microaxial flow pump, and a combination of both (ECMELLA).

Exploring pattern-specific components associated with hand gestures through different sEMG measures.

J Neuroeng Rehabil

December 2024

School of Information Science and Technology, Fudan University, Shanghai, 200433, China.

For surface electromyography (sEMG) based human-machine interaction systems, accurately recognizing the users' gesture intent is crucial. However, due to the existence of subject-specific components in sEMG signals, subject-specific models may deteriorate when applied to new users. In this study, we hypothesize that in addition to subject-specific components, sEMG signals also contain pattern-specific components, which is independent of individuals and solely related to gesture patterns.

Early vocabulary development benefits from diverse lexical exposures within children's language environment. However, the influence of lexical diversity on children as they enter middle childhood and are exposed to multimodal language inputs remains unclear. This study evaluates global and local aspects of lexical diversity in three 1.

Lactobacillus crispatus S-layer proteins modulate innate immune response and inflammation in the lower female reproductive tract.

Lactobacillus species dominance of the vaginal microbiome is a hallmark of vaginal health. Pathogen displacement of vaginal lactobacilli drives innate immune activation and mucosal barrier disruption, increasing the risks of STI acquisition and, in pregnancy, of preterm birth. We describe differential TLR mediated activation of the proinflammatory transcription factor NF-κB by vaginal pathogens and commensals.
