Objective: To investigate the possible association between salivary CRP, IL-1β, and IL-6 levels, depression/anxiety and migraine, and tension type headache (TTH) in saliva of these patients.

Method: A longitudinal prospective study was conducted on 30 migraineurs, 30 TTH patients, and 30 age-matched healthy controls. Anxiety and depression were measured by using the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A), and the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). Salivary IL-6, IL-1β, and CRP were collected in distinct time points as A: headache-free period, B: during headache, C: 1 day after headache attack, and measured by using ELISA kits.

Results: No significant differences were found in time variation of CRP, IL-1β, and IL-6 levels between migraine and TTH (p > 0.05). IL1-β had the highest discriminative value (area under the curve = 0.924, p value < 0.001), and then CRP (area under the curve = 0.763, p value < 0.001) and IL-6 (area under the curve = 0.537, p value = 0.58). CRP and IL-6 were negatively correlated with HAM-A and BDI scores.

Conclusion: IL1-β had the highest discriminative value between headache patients and controls compared with CRP and IL-6. CRP and IL-6 were correlated with lower symptom scores of anxiety and depression prior or immediately after the headache period in patients groups.

Background: An updated systematic review of cervical musculoskeletal dysfunction in migraine and tension-type headache is needed. Influencing factors (pain hypersensitivity with cervical musculoskeletal testing, active trigger points and tenderness) have not been investigated.

Objectives: To i) update evidence for cervical musculoskeletal impairments in migraine and tension-type headache ii) report on accompanying pain associated with testing, active trigger points and tenderness in headache; iii) determine relationships between these sensitivity features and cervical musculoskeletal impairments in headache.

Interacting Dark Energy after DESI Baryon Acoustic Oscillation Measurements.

Phys Rev Lett

December 2024

School of Mathematics and Statistics, University of Sheffield, Hounsfield Road, Sheffield S3 7RH, United Kingdom.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examines how baryon acoustic oscillations data from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument affects interacting dark energy (IDE) models, which suggest an energy transfer between dark matter and dark energy.
  • By integrating data from Planck-2018 and the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument, researchers find a noticeable preference for interactions, leading to a present-day expansion rate that alleviates existing tensions with other measurements.
  • Although the IDE model offers a compelling explanation for various observational data and presents compatible expansion rates, it does struggle with predictions related to the overall matter density and large-scale structures in the universe.

Background: Yes-associated protein (YAP) is a crucial mechanosensor involved in mechanotransduction, but its role in regulating mechanical force-induced bone remodeling during orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) is unclear. This study aims to elucidate the relationship between mechanotransduction and mechanical force-induced alveolar bone remodeling during OTM.

Results: Our study confirms an asynchronous (temporal and spatial sequence) remodeling pattern of the alveolar bone under mechanical force during OTM.

Discovery of Titin and Its Role in Heart Function and Disease.

Circ Res

January 2025

Department of Integrative Pathophysiology, Medical Faculty Mannheim, DZHK Partnersite Mannheim-Heidelberg, University of Heidelberg, Germany (S.L.).

This review examines the giant elastic protein titin and its critical roles in heart function, both in health and disease, as discovered since its identification nearly 50 years ago. Encoded by the TTN (titin gene), titin has emerged as a major disease locus for cardiac disorders. Functionally, titin acts as a third myofilament type, connecting sarcomeric Z-disks and M-bands, and regulating myocardial passive stiffness and stretch sensing.

Department of Orthodontic Dentistry, School of Stomatology, The Fourth Military Medical University, State Key Laboratory of Oral & Maxillofacial Reconstruction and Regeneration, National Clinical Research Center for Oral Diseases, Shaanxi Clinical Research Center for Oral Diseases, Xi'an710032, China.

To explore the distribution characteristics of glioma-associated oncogene homolog 1 (Gli1) positive cells during orthodontic tooth movement process and conduct a proteomic analysis of these cells. Forty Gli1-LacZ transgenic mice were used to establish an in orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) model for labeling Gli1 positive cells in Gli1-LacZ transgenic mice (OTM group) and an unforced control group, with tooth movement distance measured using micro-CT. The spatial relationship and distribution characteristics of Gli1 positive cells and H-type vessels of CD31 and endomucin (EMCN) in periodontal tissues were detected by immunofluorescence staining.
