The PARP1 (Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1) enzyme is essential for single and double-strand break repair in humans. Alterations affecting PARP1 activity have severe consequences for human health and are associated with pathologies like cancer, and metabolic and neurodegenerative disorders. Here, we have developed a fast and easy procedure for the expression and purification of PARP1. Biologically active protein was purified to an apparent purity > 95%, with only two purification steps. A thermostability analysis revealed that PARP1 possessed improved stability in 50 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0 (Tm = 44.2 ± 0.3 °C), thus this buffer was used throughout the whole purification procedure. The protein was shown to bind to DNA and has no inhibitor molecules bound to the active site. Finally, the yield of the purified PARP1 protein is sufficient for both biochemical, biophysical and structural analysis. The new protocol provides a fast and simple purification procedure while producing similar protein quantities to what has been described previously.

The etiology of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) remains unclear, treatment options unsatisfactory and disease development difficult to predict for individual patients. Dysbiosis of the gastrointestinal microbiota and disruption of the biological clock have been implicated and studied as diagnostic and therapeutic targets. Here, we examine the relationship of IBD to biological clock and gut microbiota by using the IL-10 deficient () mouse model for microbiota-dependent spontaneous colitis in combination with altered (4 h/4 h) light/dark cycles to disrupt and time-restricted feeding (TRF) to restore circadian rhythmicity.

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in many survivors experiencing post-acute COVID-19 syndrome (PCS) with symptoms including fatigue, breathlessness, and cognitive complaints. E-cigarette use has already been associated with increased susceptibility to COVID-19 because of its effects on ACE2 receptor expression and inflammation, raising concern that it might worsen the long-term outcomes of COVID-19, including PCS. While traditional smoking is associated with a higher risk of PCS, the role of e-cigarettes remains unclear due to conflicting evidence.

Background: There are gaps in our understanding of the clinical characteristics and disease burden of the respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) among community-dwelling adults. This is in part due to a lack of routine testing at the point of care. More data would enhance our assessment of the need for an RSV vaccination program for adults in the United Kingdom.
