Independently engaging protein tethers of different length enhance synaptic vesicle trafficking to the plasma membrane.
J Physiol
January 2025
Department of Neuroscience, University of Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark.
Synaptic vesicle (SV) trafficking toward the plasma membrane (PM) and subsequent SV maturation are essential for neurotransmitter release. These processes, including SV docking and priming, are co-ordinated by various proteins, such as SNAREs, Munc13 and synaptotagmin (Syt), which connect (tether) the SV to the PM. Here, we investigated how tethers of varying lengths mediate SV docking using a simplified mathematical model.

Center for Virtual Imaging Trial, Carl E. Ravin Advanced Imaging Laboratories, Department of Radiology, Duke University School of Medicine, Durham, North Carolina, USA.
Background: This Special Report summarizes the 2022, AAPM grand challenge on Truth-based CT image reconstruction.
Purpose: To provide an objective framework for evaluating CT reconstruction methods using virtual imaging resources consisting of a library of simulated CT projection images of a population of human models with various diseases.
Methods: Two hundred unique anthropomorphic, computational models were created with varied diseases consisting of 67 emphysema, 67 lung lesions, and 66 liver lesions.
Training outcomes of novice clinicians in the use of dynamic computer assisted implant surgery: A prospective comparative study.
J Dent Sci
December 2024
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Digital Implant Surgery Research Unit, Faculty of Dentistry, Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok, Thailand.
Background/purpose: The increasing importance of computer assisted implant surgery (CAIS) in the practice of implant dentistry calls for adequate education and training of clinicians. However, limited evidence exists to support optimal educational strategies and best practices. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of distributed training with dynamic CAIS (d-CAIS) on the precision of freehand implant placement by inexperienced operators.

A novel molecular design based on a quinazolinone scaffold was developed the attachment of aryl alkanesulfonates to the quinazolinone core through a thioacetohydrazide azomethine linker, leading to a new series of quinazolinone-alkanesulfonates 5a-r. The antimicrobial properties of the newly synthesized quinazolinone derivatives 5a-r were investigated to examine their bactericidal and fungicidal activities against bacterial pathogens like , (Gram-positive), , , (Gram-negative), in addition to (unicellular fungal). The tested compounds demonstrated reasonable bactericidal activities compared to standard drugs.

Department of Community Health Sciences, Addiction Studies and Research Programs, Université de Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada.
Background And Objective: Virtual patient simulations are cost-effective methods for training health professionals. Yet, this teaching method is rarely used with clinicians who work or plan on working with people with substance use disorders. This scoping review summarizes the current state of the literature concerning virtual substance use disorder patient simulations in health professionals' training and provides suggestions for future directions.
