Glycogen storage disease XI, also known as Fanconi-Bickel syndrome (FBS), is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the gene that encodes the glucose-facilitated transporter type 2 (GLUT2). Patients develop a life-threatening renal proximal tubule dysfunction for which no treatment is available apart from electrolyte replacement. To investigate the renal pathogenesis of FBS, expression was ablated in mouse kidney and HK-2 proximal tubule cells.

Does cardiovascular risk matter in IBD patients?

J Intern Med

December 2023

Department of Medicine, Solna, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden.

Cardiovascular and thromboembolic risks are increasing in the population as a whole and therefore also in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients. Obesity is a worldwide challenge also affecting the IBD population, and a causal association with Crohn's disease may exist. IBD itself, particularly when active, is also associated with a significant risk of thromboembolic and cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarction and stroke.

Due to the low capacity, low working potential, and lithium coating at fast charging rates of graphite material as an anode for Li-ion batteries (LIBs), it is necessary to develop novel anode materials for LIBs with higher capacity, excellent electrochemical stability, and good safety. Among different transition-metal oxides, ABO spinel oxides are promising anode materials for LIBs due to their high theoretical capacities, environmental friendliness, high abundance, and low cost. In this work, a novel, porous ZnMgFeMnO spinel oxide was successfully prepared via the sol-gel method and then studied as an anode material for Li-ion batteries (LIBs).

Binder-Free Cnt Cathodes for Li-O Batteries with More Than One Life.

Small Methods

January 2024

Laboratoire de Réactivité et Chimie des Solides (LRCS), Université de Picardie Jules Verne, CNRS UMR 7314, Hub de l'Energie, Amiens, Cedex, 80039, France.

Li-O batteries (LOB) performance degradation ultimately occurs through the accumulation of discharge products and irreversible clogging of the porous electrode during the cycling. Electrode binder degradation in the presence of reduced oxygen species can result in additional coating of the conductive surface, exacerbating capacity fading. Herein, a facile method to fabricate free-standing is established, binder-free electrodes for LOBs in which multi-wall carbon nanotubes form cross-linked networks exhibiting high porosity, conductivity, and flexibility.

The REMSWITCH study recently demonstrated that switching from intravenous (IV) to subcutaneous (SC) infliximab (IFX) is feasible and well-accepted leading to a low risk of relapse in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Because the doses of IV IFX depend on patients' weight contrary to SC IFX, whether the switch is also feasible in patients with IBD suffering from obesity remains questionable.

Microclimate reveals the true thermal niche of forest plant species.

Ecol Lett

December 2023

Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Celestijnenlaan 200E, Leuven, Belgium.

Species distributions are conventionally modelled using coarse-grained macroclimate data measured in open areas, potentially leading to biased predictions since most terrestrial species reside in the shade of trees. For forest plant species across Europe, we compared conventional macroclimate-based species distribution models (SDMs) with models corrected for forest microclimate buffering. We show that microclimate-based SDMs at high spatial resolution outperformed models using macroclimate and microclimate data at coarser resolution.

Evolutionary radiations of woody taxa within arid environments were made possible by multiple trait innovations including deep roots and embolism-resistant xylem, but little is known about how these traits have coevolved across the phylogeny of woody plants or how they jointly influence the distribution of species. We synthesized global trait and vegetation plot datasets to examine how rooting depth and xylem vulnerability across 188 woody plant species interact with aridity, precipitation seasonality, and water table depth to influence species occurrence probabilities across all biomes. Xylem resistance to embolism and rooting depth are independent woody plant traits that do not exhibit an interspecific trade-off.

Parental representations after preterm birth: a narrative review.

Front Psychol

September 2023

Centre de Recherche en Psychologie: Cognition, Psychisme et Organisations (UR 7273), Université de Picardie Jules Verne, Amiens, France.

Preterm birth accounts for nearly 15 million births annually worldwide and constitutes a considerable risk factor for atypical development. This birth context is a source of stress for the parents and often leads to an early separation between their child and them. Research on the influence of the birth status on the infant's attachment style has shown no systematic link between preterm birth and the development of insecure attachment in children born preterm.

January 2024

Laboratoire de Réactivité et Chimie des Solides (LRCS), UMR CNRS 7314, Université de Picardie Jules Verne, Hub de l'Energie, 15 rue Baudelocque, Amiens, Cedex, 80039, France.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how substituent groups on perylene diimides affect the electrochemical properties of organic battery electrodes, especially focusing on conductivity issues.
  • Depending on the substituents, factors like reversibility and gravimetric capacity are notably influenced, with a propyl-substituted diimide performing well with minimal conductive additives.
  • Findings suggest that optimizing molecular design and promoting a conductive columnar structure can significantly reduce the need for additional conductive materials in battery electrodes.

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are an attractive therapeutic tool for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine owing to their regenerative and trophic properties. The best-known and most widely used are bone marrow MSCs, which are currently being harvested and developed from a wide range of adult and perinatal tissues. MSCs from different sources are believed to have different secretion potentials and production, which may influence their therapeutic effects.

Article Synopsis
  • - Postharvest losses of avocados are primarily due to anthracnose disease from the fungus Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, leading to a search for healthier alternatives to chemical fungicides.
  • - Chitin nanocrystals were modified to enhance their effectiveness and combined with silk fibroins, essential oils, melatonin, and phenylalanine to create active coatings that showed promising antifungal properties.
  • - The best-performing coating, O-NCChit/SF/MT, reduced anthracnose severity by 45%, matching the effectiveness of a commercial fungicide, while maintaining avocado quality during storage.
