Background: Cerebral ischemia (CI), ranking as the second leading global cause of death, is frequently treated by reestablishing blood flow and oxygenation. Paradoxically, this reperfusion can intensify tissue damage, leading to CI-reperfusion injury. This research sought to uncover biomarkers pertaining to protein processing in the endoplasmic reticulum (PER) during CI-reperfusion injury.

Methods: We utilized the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) dataset GSE163614 to discern differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and single out PER-related DEGs. The functions and pathways of these PER-related DEGs were identified Gene Ontology (GO) and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses. Core genes were pinpointed through protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks. Subsequent to this, genes with diagnostic relevance were distinguished using external validation datasets. A single-sample gene-set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) was undertaken to pinpoint genes with strong associations to hypoxia and apoptosis, suggesting their potential roles as primary inducers of apoptosis in hypoxic conditions during ischemia-reperfusion injuries.

Results: Our study demonstrated that PER-related genes, specifically ADCY5, CAMK2A, PLCB1, NTRK2, and DLG4, were markedly down-regulated in models, exhibiting a robust association with hypoxia and apoptosis.

Conclusion: The data indicates that ADCY5, CAMK2A, PLCB1, NTRK2, and DLG4 could be pivotal genes responsible for triggering apoptosis in hypoxic environments during CI-reperfusion injury.

Ultrastructural disturbances in microglia-neuron interactions in the head of the caudate nucleus in schizophrenia.

Eur Arch Psychiatry Clin Neurosci

Laboratory of Clinical Neuropathology, Mental Health Research Center, Kashirskoe Shosse 34, 115522, Moscow, Russia.

Previously we found altered microglia-neuron interactions in the prefrontal cortex in schizophrenia. We hypothesized that microglia-neuron interactions may be dysregulated in the caudate nucleus in schizophrenia. A postmortem ultrastructural morphometric study was performed to investigate satellite microglia (SatMg) and adjacent neurons in the head of the caudate nucleus in 21 cases of schizophrenia and 20 healthy controls.

Background/aims: The purpose of this study is to define genetic factors associated with anterior uveitis through genome-wide association study (GWAS).

Methods: In this GWAS meta-analysis, we combined data from the FinnGen, Estonian Biobank and UK Biobank with a total of 12 205 anterior uveitis cases and 917 145 controls. We performed a phenome-wide association study (PheWAS) to investigate associations across phenotypes and traits.

The cell nuclei of Ophisthokonts, the eukaryotic supergroup defined by fungi and metazoans, is remarkable in the constancy of their double-membraned structure in both somatic and germ cells. Such remarkable structural conservation underscores common and ancient evolutionary origins. Yet, the dynamics of disassembly and reassembly displayed by Ophisthokont nuclei vary extensively.

During tumour progression, organelle function undergoes dramatic changes, and crosstalk among organelles plays a significant role. Crosstalk between mitochondria and other organelles such as the endoplasmic reticulum and cytoskeleton has focussed attention on the mechanisms of tumourigenesis. This review demonstrates an overview of the molecular structure of the mitochondrial-cytoskeletal junction and its biological interactions.

A novel ARCN1 splice-site variant in a Chinese girl with central precocious puberty, intrauterine growth restriction, microcephaly, and microretrognathia.

The ARCN1 gene encodes the delta subunit of the coatomer protein complex I (COPI), which is essential for mediating protein transport from the Golgi complex to the endoplasmic reticulum. Variants in ARCN1 are associated with clinical features such as microcephaly, microretrognathia, intrauterine growth restriction, short rhizomelic stature, and developmental delays. We present a case of a patient exhibiting intrauterine growth restriction, preterm birth, microcephaly, micrognathia, and central precocious puberty.
