Protein folding in the cell is usually aided by molecular chaperones, from which the Hsp70 (Hsp = heat shock protein) family has many important roles, such as aiding nascent folding and participating in translocation. Hsp70 has ATPase activity which is stimulated by binding to the J-domain present in co-chaperones from the Hsp40 family. Hsp40s have many functions, as for instance the binding to partially folded proteins to be delivered to Hsp70. However, the presence of the J-domain characterizes Hsp40s or, by this reason, as J-proteins. The J-domain alone can stimulate Hsp70 ATPase activity. Apparently, it also maintains the same conformation as in the whole protein although structural information on full J-proteins is still missing. This work reports the H, N and C resonance assignments of the J-domain of a Hsp40 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, named Sis1. Secondary structure and order parameter prediction from chemical shifts are also reported. Altogether, the data show that Sis1 J-domain is highly structured and predominantly formed by α-helices, results that are in very good agreement with those previously reported for the crystallographic structure.

Differentiation of Early Sacroiliitis Using Machine-Learning- Supported Texture Analysis.
Diagnostics (Basel)
January 2025
Department of Radiology, Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Hangzhou 310016, China.
We wished to compare the diagnostic performance of texture analysis (TA) against that of a visual qualitative assessment in identifying early sacroiliitis (nr-axSpA). A total of 92 participants were retrospectively included at our university hospital institution, comprising 30 controls and 62 patients with axSpA, including 32 with nr-axSpA and 30 with r-axSpA, who underwent MR examination of the sacroiliac joints. MRI at 3T of the lumbar spine and the sacroiliac joint was performed using oblique T1-weighted (W), fluid-sensitive, fat-saturated (Fs) T2WI images.

Background & Aims: This study aimed to compare ultrasonography (US) and non-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the surveillance of hepatic malignancy.
Methods: We conducted a randomized, non-blinded, single-center trial at a single center in South Korea. Eligible individuals were aged 20-70 years with liver cirrhosis, Child-Pugh class A, and no history of liver cancer or other recent malignancy.
Deep-Learning-Based Reconstruction of Single-Breath-Hold 3 mm HASTE Improves Abdominal Image Quality and Reduces Acquisition Time: A Quantitative Analysis.

Breath-hold T2-weighted half-Fourier acquisition single-shot turbo spin echo (HASTE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the upper abdomen with a slice thickness below 5 mm suffers from high image noise and blurring. The purpose of this prospective study was to improve image quality and accelerate imaging acquisition by using single-breath-hold T2-weighted HASTE with deep learning (DL) reconstruction (DL-HASTE) with a 3 mm slice thickness. MRI of the upper abdomen with DL-HASTE was performed in 35 participants (5 healthy volunteers and 30 patients) at 3 Tesla.

Objective: This study aims to observe the effect of enrichment rehabilitation (ER) on cognitive function in post-stroke patients and to clarify its underlying mechanism.
Methods: Forty patients with post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) meeting the inclusion criteria were randomly assigned to two groups: conventional medical rehabilitation (CM group) and ER intervention (ER group). All patients underwent assessments of overall cognitive function, attention function, and executive function within 24 h before the start of training and within 24 h after the 8 weeks of training.

Interpersonal emotion regulation (IER) refers to the dynamic process where a regulator employs specific strategies to alleviate a target's distress. It remains unclear whether successful IER could facilitate interpersonal relationship closeness (IRC). The present study aimed to explore whether successful IER, based on two typical strategies-cognitive reappraisal (CR) and expressive suppression (ES)-for down-regulating the target's negative emotions, could enhance IRC among friend dyads, and to identify the underlying neural correlates of this process using functional near-infrared spectroscopy system.
