LINE-1 (L1) retrotransposition is widespread in many cancers, especially those with a high burden of chromosomal rearrangements. However, whether and to what degree L1 activity directly impacts genome integrity is unclear. Here, we apply whole-genome sequencing to experimental models of L1 expression to comprehensively define the spectrum of genomic changes caused by L1.

Efficacy and safety of iclepertin (BI 425809) with adjunctive computerized cognitive training in patients with schizophrenia.

Schizophr Res Cogn

Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals, Inc., 900 Ridgebury Road, Ridgefield, CT 06877, USA.

Unlabelled: Despite significant patient burden, there are no approved pharmacotherapies to treat symptoms of cognitive impairment associated with schizophrenia (CIAS). This double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group Phase II trial assessed the efficacy and safety of pharmacological augmentation of at-home computerized cognitive training (CCT) with iclepertin (BI 425809, a glycine transporter-1 inhibitor). Participants with schizophrenia (aged 18-50 years) on stable antipsychotic therapy, who were compliant with CCT during the run-in period, were enrolled.

Suboptimal refeeding compensates stunting in a mouse model of juvenile malnutrition.

J Nutr

January 2025

Institut de Génomique Fonctionnelle de Lyon, École Normale Supérieure de Lyon, CNRS UMR 5242, UCBL Lyon-1, F-69007 Lyon, France. Electronic address:

Background: Early postnatal life is a critical period of rapid growth in mammals, heavily reliant on adequate nutrition. Protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) during this window can lead to stunting and wasting, with lasting health consequences.

Objective: This study developed a mouse model of juvenile PEM to assess the effects of refeeding with various diets and interventions on growth recovery, including probiotic supplementation and suboptimal refeeding diets.

Background: The goal of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulators is to reach normal CFTR function in people with cystic fibrosis. Vanzacaftor-tezacaftor-deutivacaftor restored CFTR function in vitro and in phase 2 trials in participants aged 18 years and older resulting in improvements in CFTR function, as measured by sweat chloride concentrations and lung function as measured by spirometry. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of vanzacaftor-tezacaftor-deutivacaftor compared with standard of care elexacaftor-tezacaftor-ivacaftor in individuals with cystic fibrosis aged 12 years and older.

Introduction And Hypothesis: This study was aimed at evaluating the therapeutic effects of a modified intravesical botulinum toxin injection technique (fewer injection sites under local anesthesia), in comparison with the conventional technique for patients with idiopathic detrusor overactivity, considering the urodynamic parameters.

Methods: In this double-blinded randomized clinical trial, 78 adult females with idiopathic detrusor overactivity were divided into two groups: conventional and modified groups. In the conventional method, patients received intradetrusor botulinum toxin injection at 20 sites under general or spinal anesthesia in a trigone-sparing fashion.
