In the past it was reported in several studies that both depressive and schizophrenic patients exhibit reduced P300 amplitudes compared to healthy controls. In order to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of spectral P300 generation, we analysed P300 responses in depression and schizophrenia by a frequency based approach. Herefore, the amplification (poststimulus/prestimulus) of spectral power in different frequency bands was evaluated for non-target and target epochs. Generally, we found that P300 responses are accompanied by a pronounced frequency amplification in the delta and theta range. For the depressive patients we detected only under target condition a statistically significant reduction of alpha and gamma amplification compared to controls. In contrast to this, we observed a highly significant reduction of delta amplification in schizophrenic patients, under both target and non-target conditions.

Mir-483-5p-mediated activating of IGF2/H19 enhancer up-regulates IGF2/H19 expression via chromatin loops to promote the malignant progression of hepatocellular carcinoma.
Mol Cancer

Department of Gastroenterology, The First Affiliated Hospital, Jinan University, Guangzhou, Guangdong, 510630, P. R. China.
Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the role of miR-483-5p in regulating the overexpression of IGF2 and H19, which are linked to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
- miR-483-5p enhances IGF2 and H19 expression by binding to their enhancer, activating transcription, and promoting new interactions between the enhancer and gene promoters through chromatin loops.
- The research highlights that MED1 is crucial in this process, influencing both chromatin structure and the aggressive behavior of HCC cells, indicating potential targets for therapeutic interventions.
A multivalent engagement of ENL with MOZ.
Nat Struct Mol Biol

Department of Pharmacology, University of Colorado School of Medicine, Aurora, CO, USA.
The epigenetic cofactor ENL (eleven-nineteen-leukemia) and the acetyltransferase MOZ (monocytic leukemia zinc finger) have vital roles in transcriptional regulation and are implicated in aggressive forms of leukemia. Here, we describe the mechanistic basis for the intertwined association of ENL and MOZ. Genomic analysis shows that ENL and MOZ co-occupy active promoters and that MOZ recruits ENL to its gene targets.

Article Synopsis
- The switch from oxidative phosphorylation to glycolysis is essential for activating microglia, particularly in the context of Parkinson's disease (PD).
- Recent research shows that inhibiting glycolysis can reduce inflammation and protect dopaminergic neurons in PD mice by decreasing lactate levels.
- The study identifies a significant role of histone lactylation, specifically H3K9, in promoting microglial activation, suggesting potential therapeutic avenues for managing neuroinflammation in PD.
The Ku protein family regulates hyperglycemia-induced vascular endothelial cell inflammation by modulating P300 levels.

Article Synopsis
- Hyperglycemia leads to endothelial inflammation, which significantly contributes to cardiovascular issues in diabetic patients, particularly through mechanisms associated with diabetic kidney injury (DKI).
- P300 and Ese-1 are critical regulators in this process, where P300 enhances Ese-1 expression, promoting inflammation and advancing the progression of DKI by increasing inflammatory markers in both diabetic mice and human kidney cells.
- Silencing P300 mitigates hyperglycemia-induced inflammation, revealing its interaction with the Ku protein family (Ku70/Ku86), which influences inflammation pathways, indicating potential targets for therapeutic interventions in diabetes-related complications.
Unexpected Twists: Electrophysiological Correlates of Encoding and Retrieval of Events Eliciting Prediction Error.

According to the predictive processing framework, our brain constantly generates predictions based on past experiences and compares these predictions with incoming sensory information. When an event contradicts these predictions, it results in a prediction error (PE), which has been shown to enhance subsequent memory. However, the neural mechanisms underlying the influence of PEs on subsequent memory remain unclear.
