- Abstract
Defining the molecular networks orchestrating human brain formation is crucial for understanding neurodevelopment and neurological disorders. Challenges in acquiring early brain tissue have incentivized the use of three-dimensional human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC)-derived neural organoids to recapitulate neurodevelopment. To elucidate the molecular programs that drive this highly dynamic process, here, we generate a comprehensive trans-omic map of the phosphoproteome, proteome, and transcriptome of the exit of pluripotency and neural differentiation toward human cerebral organoids (hCOs). These data reveal key phospho-signaling events and their convergence on transcriptional factors to regulate hCO formation. Comparative analysis with developing human and mouse embryos demonstrates the fidelity of our hCOs in modeling embryonic brain development. Finally, we demonstrate that biochemical modulation of AKT signaling can control hCO differentiation. Together, our data provide a comprehensive resource to study molecular controls in human embryonic brain development and provide a guide for the future development of hCO differentiation protocols. [Display omitted] • A time-resolved trans-omic map of early human cerebral organoid (hCO) formation • Phospho-signaling converges on master regulators during hCO differentiation • Fidelity assessment of early hCOs in modeling embryonic brain development • Biochemical modulation of AKT signaling for early hCO differentiation Through comprehensive profiling of the phosphoproteome, proteome, and transcriptome, Chen et al. generate a time-resolved trans-omics map of early human cerebral organoid (hCO) formation. This resource reveals the multi-layered molecular controls involved in neural lineage acquisition and the convergence of phospho-signaling on master regulators during hCO differentiation.

QUALITY of work life ,GIG economy ,LABOR ,EMPLOYERS - Abstract
This paper introduces the Fairwork Foundation, a research initiative that is also developing an intervention around the quality of work on digital labour platforms. Lacking the ability to collectively bargain, many platform workers have little ability to negotiate wages or working conditions with their employers. As a result of this new, digitally-managed market for work, many workers have jobs characterised by long and irregular hours, low income, and high stress. Fairwork's field research across India and South Africa finds challenges for workers across a range of issues which form the basis for a set of decent work principles on: pay, conditions, contracts, management, and representation. The results of the field research are being used to rank and compare platforms against these principles as a means to encourage decent, and discourage 'un-decent' platform work.

- Abstract
Abstract Objective Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is becoming a leading cause of advanced chronic liver disease. The progression of NAFLD, including nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), has a strong genetic component, and the most robust contributor is the patatin-like phospholipase domain-containing 3 (PNPLA3) rs738409 encoding the 148M protein sequence variant. We hypothesized that suppressing the expression of the PNPLA3 148M mutant protein would exert a beneficial effect on the entire spectrum of NAFLD. Methods We examined the effects of liver-targeted GalNAc 3 -conjugated antisense oligonucleotide (ASO)-mediated silencing of Pnpla3 in a knock-in mouse model in which we introduced the human PNPLA3 I148M mutation. Results ASO-mediated silencing of Pnpla3 reduced liver steatosis (p = 0.038) in homozygous Pnpla3 148M/M knock-in mutant mice but not in wild-type littermates fed a steatogenic high-sucrose diet. In mice fed a NASH-inducing diet, ASO-mediated silencing of Pnpla3 reduced liver steatosis score and NAFLD activity score independent of the Pnpla3 genotype, while reductions in liver inflammation score (p = 0.018) and fibrosis stage (p = 0.031) were observed only in the Pnpla3 knock-in 148M/M mutant mice. These responses were accompanied by reduced liver levels of Mcp1 (p = 0.026) and Timp2 (p = 0.007) specifically in the mutant knock-in mice. This may reduce levels of chemokine attracting inflammatory cells and increase the collagenolytic activity during tissue regeneration. Conclusion This study provides the first evidence that a Pnpla3 ASO therapy can improve all features of NAFLD, including liver fibrosis, and suppress the expression of a strong innate genetic risk factor, Pnpla3 148M, which may open up a precision medicine approach in NASH. Highlights • ASO-mediated silencing of Pnpla3 reduced liver steatosis specifically in homozygous Pnpla3 148M/M mice fed a high-sucrose diet. • In mice fed a NASH-inducing diet this treatment reduced liver inflammation and fibrosis specifically in the Pnpla3 148M/M mutant mice. • This is the first proof of concept of a NASH precision medicine treatment exploiting an innate genetic risk variant for the disease.

• 235 trees across 6° latitude climbed, measured, and core-sampled. • Recovery from multi-year hotter drought slowest south of 37°. • Heartwood investment and nocturnal summer fog affect growth efficiency. • Carbon sequestration and biodiversity higher in primary than secondary forests. • Managing for Potential Elder Trees can maximize non-timber values. Heavily exploited for its reddish, decay-resistant heartwood, the tallest conifer, Sequoia sempervirens , is a major component of coastal forests from extreme southwestern Oregon to California's Santa Lucia Mountains. Primary Sequoia forests are now restricted to < 5 % of their former distribution, and mature secondary forests with trees over 60 m tall are even scarcer due to repeated logging. Leveraging allometric equations recently derived from intensive work in both forest types, we climbed, measured, and core-sampled 235 trees in 45 locations distributed across the species range to examine growth trends and understand how tall Sequoia are responding to recent environmental changes. Paired samples of sapwood and heartwood collected along the height gradient were used to quantify Sequoia investment in decay resistance. During the 20th century, trees in most locations began producing more wood than expected for their size with this growth surge becoming pronounced after 1970 and ending around 2000. Radial increments—ring widths—correlate with climatic variables related to water availability, and these relationships are strengthening as temperatures rise. Sensitivity to drought increased from north to south along a 6° latitudinal gradient of decreasing precipitation and summer fog frequency. Sequoia trees north of 40° were least sensitive to drought, producing similar biomass annually during dry and wet years, whereas trees farther south produced less biomass during individual drought years. Hotter 21st century drought barely affected Sequoia growth efficiency (biomass increment per unit leaf mass) north of 40° until the fourth consecutive year (2015), when growth efficiency dropped precipitously, recovering within two years. South of 40°, Sequoia trees exhibited steadily declining growth efficiency during the multi-year drought followed by recovery, but recovery did not occur south of 37° despite ample precipitation in 2017. Sequoia growth efficiency is currently highest in secondary forests north of 40°, where trees produce relatively small amounts of heartwood with the lowest decay resistance (least fungicide) while receiving the most nocturnal summer fog. Increasing sink limitations, whereby rising temperatures, drier air at night, and extreme tree height collectively lower turgor pressure to inhibit cambial activity, may reduce Sequoia growth efficiency while contributing to more durable biomass production. Heartwood and fungicide increments are higher in primary than secondary forests across the species range. Crown structural complexity promotes development of vascular epiphytes and arboreal soil habitats in Sequoia forests with sufficient moisture availability. These habitats are lacking in secondary forests and rare in primary forests south of 40°. After logging, restoration of tall Sequoia forests can be achieved via silviculture that maximizes height increments during early stand development and then retains some dominant trees in perpetuity, allowing them to gain full stature, produce increasingly decay-resistant heartwood, and support significant arboreal biodiversity.

- Abstract
Maintaining an appropriate balance between excitation and inhibition is critical for neuronal information processing. Cortical neurons can cell-autonomously adjust the inhibition they receive to individual levels of excitatory input, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. We describe that Ste20-like kinase (SLK) mediates cell-autonomous regulation of excitation-inhibition balance in the thalamocortical feedforward circuit, but not in the feedback circuit. This effect is due to regulation of inhibition originating from parvalbumin-expressing interneurons, while inhibition via somatostatin-expressing interneurons is unaffected. Computational modeling shows that this mechanism promotes stable excitatory-inhibitory ratios across pyramidal cells and ensures robust and sparse coding. Patch-clamp RNA sequencing yields genes differentially regulated by SLK knockdown, as well as genes associated with excitation-inhibition balance participating in transsynaptic communication and cytoskeletal dynamics. These data identify a mechanism for cell-autonomous regulation of a specific inhibitory circuit that is critical to ensure that a majority of cortical pyramidal cells participate in information coding. [Display omitted] • SLK regulates excitation-inhibition balance cell-autonomously • SLK in cortical neurons regulates feedforward but not feedback inhibition • SLK selectively regulates inhibition by parvalbumin-expressing interneurons Royero et al. identify a mechanism relying on Ste20-like kinase that allows single cortical neurons to cell-autonomously adjust feedforward inhibition they receive to the cell-specific levels of excitatory input. They propose that this mechanism is critical to ensure that a majority of cortical pyramidal cells participate in information coding. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Mutations in NOTCH 3 are the cause of cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL), a neurological disorder characterized by stroke, and vascular cognitive impairment and dementia. Loss of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) and accumulation of granular osmiophilic material (GOM) deposits are hallmarks of CADASIL. There are no therapies for CADASIL and experimental endpoints to examine the preclinical efficacy of potential drugs are lacking. This study aims to use a mouse carrying the C455R mutation in Notch 3 to identify biomarkers associated with CADASIL. Mass spectrometry and antibody arrays were used to explore the aorta and blood proteomes of CADASIL mice, ELISA assays were utilized for biomarker validation, a ligand-dependent assay was applied to examine the relationship between Notch signaling and biomarker expression, and retinal histology was performed for quantification of VSMC loss in arteries. Two-hundred day-old mice with the C455R CADASIL mutation in Notch 3 mice display robust VSMC loss in retinal arteries and had increased plasma levels of collagen18α1/endostatin (col18α1) and high-temperature requirement A serine peptidase 1 (HTRA1) and reduced levels of Notch 3 extracellular domain (N3ECD), compared to control wild type mice. Measurements of plasma endostatin, HTRA1 and N3ECD, along with VSMC quantification in retinal arteries, may serve as surrogate endpoints for assessing efficacy in preclinical therapeutic studies of CADASIL using mice.

- Abstract
Summary Adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) and comparative gene identification 58 (CGI-58) are critical regulators of triacylglycerol (TAG) turnover. CGI-58 is thought to regulate TAG mobilization by stimulating the enzymatic activity of ATGL. However, it is not known whether this coactivation function of CGI-58 occurs in vivo. Moreover, the phenotype of human CGI-58 mutations suggests ATGL-independent functions. Through direct comparison of mice with single or double deficiency of CGI-58 and ATGL, we show here that CGI-58 knockdown causes hepatic steatosis in both the presence and absence of ATGL. CGI-58 also regulates hepatic diacylglycerol (DAG) and inflammation in an ATGL-independent manner. Interestingly, ATGL deficiency, but not CGI-58 deficiency, results in suppression of the hepatic and adipose de novo lipogenic program. Collectively, these findings show that CGI-58 regulates hepatic neutral lipid storage and inflammation in the genetic absence of ATGL, demonstrating that mechanisms driving TAG lipolysis in hepatocytes differ significantly from those in adipocytes.

- Abstract
Summary Catecholamines promote lipolysis both in brown and white adipocytes, whereas the same stimuli preferentially activate thermogenesis in brown adipocytes. Molecular mechanisms for the adipose-selective activation of thermogenesis remain poorly understood. Here, we employed quantitative phosphoproteomics to map global and temporal phosphorylation profiles in brown, beige, and white adipocytes under β3-adrenenoceptor activation and identified kinases responsible for the adipose-selective phosphorylation profiles. We found that casein kinase2 (CK2) activity is preferentially higher in white adipocytes than brown/beige adipocytes. Genetic or pharmacological blockade of CK2 in white adipocytes activates the thermogenic program in response to cAMP stimuli. Such activation is largely through reduced CK2-mediated phosphorylation of class I HDACs. Notably, inhibition of CK2 promotes beige adipocyte biogenesis and leads to an increase in whole-body energy expenditure and ameliorates diet-induced obesity and insulin resistance. These results indicate that CK2 is a plausible target to rewire the β3-adrenenoceptor signaling cascade that promotes thermogenesis in adipocytes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Summary Specific bile acids are potent signaling molecules that modulate metabolic pathways affecting lipid, glucose and bile acid homeostasis, and the microbiota. Bile acids are synthesized from cholesterol in the liver, and the key enzymes involved in bile acid synthesis ( Cyp7a1 , Cyp8b1 ) are regulated transcriptionally by the nuclear receptor FXR. We have identified an FXR-regulated pathway upstream of a transcriptional repressor that controls multiple bile acid metabolism genes. We identify MafG as an FXR target gene and show that hepatic MAFG overexpression represses genes of the bile acid synthetic pathway and modifies the biliary bile acid composition. In contrast, loss-of-function studies using MafG +/− mice causes de-repression of the same genes with concordant changes in biliary bile acid levels. Finally, we identify functional MafG response elements in bile acid metabolism genes using ChIP-seq analysis. Our studies identify a molecular mechanism for the complex feedback regulation of bile acid synthesis controlled by FXR. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Summary Insulin resistance (IR) is a complex trait with multiple genetic and environmental components. Confounded by large differences between the sexes, environment, and disease pathology, the genetic basis of IR has been difficult to dissect. Here we examine IR and related traits in a diverse population of more than 100 unique male and female inbred mouse strains after feeding a diet rich in fat and refined carbohydrates. Our results show dramatic variation in IR among strains of mice and widespread differences between sexes that are dependent on genotype. We uncover more than 15 genome-wide significant loci and validate a gene, Agpat5 , associated with IR. We also integrate plasma metabolite levels and global gene expression from liver and adipose tissue to identify metabolite quantitative trait loci (mQTL) and expression QTL (eQTL), respectively. Our results provide a resource for analysis of interactions between diet, sex, and genetic background in IR. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Summary Circulating levels of the gut microbe-derived metabolite trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) have recently been linked to cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. Here, we performed transcriptional profiling in mouse models of altered reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) and serendipitously identified the TMAO-generating enzyme flavin monooxygenase 3 (FMO3) as a powerful modifier of cholesterol metabolism and RCT. Knockdown of FMO3 in cholesterol-fed mice alters biliary lipid secretion, blunts intestinal cholesterol absorption, and limits the production of hepatic oxysterols and cholesteryl esters. Furthermore, FMO3 knockdown stimulates basal and liver X receptor (LXR)-stimulated macrophage RCT, thereby improving cholesterol balance. Conversely, FMO3 knockdown exacerbates hepatic endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and inflammation in part by decreasing hepatic oxysterol levels and subsequent LXR activation. FMO3 is thus identified as a central integrator of hepatic cholesterol and triacylglycerol metabolism, inflammation, and ER stress. These studies suggest that the gut microbiota-driven TMA/FMO3/TMAO pathway is a key regulator of lipid metabolism and inflammation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Summary The LXR-regulated E3 ubiquitin ligase IDOL controls LDLR receptor stability independent of SREBP and PCSK9, but its relevance to plasma lipid levels is unknown. Here we demonstrate that the effects of the LXR–IDOL axis are both tissue and species specific. In mice, LXR agonist induces Idol transcript levels in peripheral tissues but not in liver, and does not change plasma LDL levels. Accordingly, Idol -deficient mice exhibit elevated LDLR protein levels in peripheral tissues, but not in the liver. By contrast, LXR activation in cynomolgus monkeys induces hepatic IDOL expression, reduces LDLR protein levels, and raises plasma LDL levels. Knockdown of IDOL in monkeys with an antisense oligonucleotide blunts the effect of LXR agonist on LDL levels. These results implicate IDOL as a modulator of plasma lipid levels in primates and support further investigation into IDOL inhibition as a potential strategy for LDL lowering in humans.

Today, practices of food production, consumption, and distribution have the potential to go through immensely transformative shifts as information and communication technologies (ICTs) become increasingly embedded in every domain of contemporary life. This paper addresses key challenges and opportunities at the intersection of food and ICTs. The paper argues for the need for interdisciplinary research to examine the key roles that network technologies play in re-shaping social and economic networks of food, focusing on three main research areas: food data, transparency and changing practices; new forms of sociality around food supported by technologies, and; re-routings of mobility and distribution networks made possible by ICTs.

- Abstract
Stable function of networks requires that synapses adapt their strength to levels of neuronal activity, and failure to do so results in cognitive disorders. How such homeostatic regulation may be implemented in mammalian synapses remains poorly understood. Here we show that the phosphorylation status of several positions of the active-zone (AZ) protein RIM1 are relevant for synaptic glutamate release. Position RIMS1045 is necessary and sufficient for expression of silencing-induced homeostatic plasticity and is kept phosphorylated by serine arginine protein kinase 2 (SRPK2). SRPK2-induced upscaling of synaptic release leads to additional RIM1 nanoclusters and docked vesicles at the AZ and is not observed in the absence of RIM1 and occluded by RIM
S1045E . Our data suggest that SRPK2 and RIM1 represent a presynaptic phosphosignaling hub that is involved in the homeostatic balance of synaptic coupling of neuronal networks. [Display omitted] • RIM is required for induction of presynaptic homeostatic plasticity (PHP) • The kinase SRPK2 regulates basal synaptic vesicle release and PHP • SRPK2 controls the number of RIM nanoclusters and of docked synaptic vesicles • Phosphorylation of RIM1 at serine 1045 increases release and occludes PHP The amount of neurotransmitters released in response to an action potential can be tuned by altering the number of release sites. Müller et al. show that the kinase SRPK2 is involved in regulating this process via the presynaptic active-zone protein RIM. Phosphorylation status changes of RIM dynamically modulate synaptic strength. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

Summary: Circulating trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) levels are strongly associated with atherosclerosis. We now examine genetic, dietary, and hormonal factors regulating TMAO levels. We demonstrate that two flavin mono-oxygenase family members, FMO1 and FMO3, oxidize trimethylamine (TMA), derived from gut flora metabolism of choline, to TMAO. Further, we show that FMO3 exhibits 10-fold higher specific activity than FMO1. FMO3 overexpression in mice significantly increases plasma TMAO levels while silencing FMO3 decreases TMAO levels. In both humans and mice, hepatic FMO3 expression is reduced in males compared to females. In mice, this reduction in FMO3 expression is due primarily to downregulation by androgens. FMO3 expression is induced by dietary bile acids by a mechanism that involves the farnesoid X receptor (FXR), a bile acid-activated nuclear receptor. Analysis of natural genetic variation among inbred strains of mice indicates that FMO3 and TMAO are significantly correlated, and TMAO levels explain 11% of the variation in atherosclerosis.

Summary: Dissecting the role of insulin in the complex regulation of triglyceride metabolism is necessary for understanding dyslipidemia and steatosis. Liver insulin receptor knockout (LIRKO) mice show that in the physiological context of feeding, hepatic insulin signaling is not required for the induction of mTORC1, an upstream activator of the lipogenic regulator, SREBP-1c. Feeding induces SREBP-1c mRNA in LIRKO livers, though not to the extent observed in controls. A high fructose diet also partially induces SREBP-1c and lipogenic gene expression in LIRKO livers. Insulin signaling becomes more important in the pathological context of obesity, as knockdown of the insulin receptor in ob/ob mice, a model of Type 2 diabetes, using antisense oligonucleotides, abolishes the induction of SREBP-1c and its targets by obesity and ameliorates steatosis. Thus, insulin-independent signaling pathways can partially compensate for insulin in the induction of SREBP-1c by feeding but the further induction by obesity/Type 2 diabetes is entirely dependent upon insulin.

Abstract: We recently reported that inhibition of 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 1 (11β-HSD1) by antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) improved hepatic lipid metabolism independent of food intake. In that study, 11β-HSD1 ASO-treated mice lost weight compared with food-matched control ASO-treated mice, suggesting treatment-mediated increased energy expenditure. We have now examined the effects of 11β-HSD1 ASO treatment on adipose tissue metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and whole-body energy expenditure. We used an ASO to knock down 11β-HSD1 in C57BL/6J mice consuming a Western-type diet (WTD). The 11β-HSD1 ASO-treated mice consumed less food, so food-matched control ASO-treated mice were also evaluated. We characterized body composition, gene expression of individual adipose depots, and measures of energy metabolism. We also investigated glucose/insulin tolerance as well as acute insulin signaling in several tissues. Knockdown of 11β-HSD1 protected against WTD-induced obesity by reducing epididymal, mesenteric, and subcutaneous white adipose tissue while activating thermogenesis in brown adipose tissue. The latter was confirmed by demonstrating increased energy expenditure in 11β-HSD1 ASO-treated mice. The 11β-HSD1 ASO treatment also protected against WTD-induced glucose intolerance and insulin resistance; this protection was associated with smaller cells and fewer macrophages in epididymal white adipose tissue as well as enhanced in vivo insulin signaling. Our results indicate that ASO-mediated inhibition of 11β-HSD1 can protect against several WTD-induced metabolic abnormalities. These effects are, at least in part, mediated by increases in the oxidative capacity of brown adipose tissue. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Depolarization of nerve terminals stimulates rapid dephos- phorylation of two isoforms of dynamin I (dynl), mediated by the calcium-dependent phosphatase calcineurin (CaN). De- phosphorylation at the major phosphorylation sites Ser-7741 778 promotes a dynl-syndapin I interaction for a specific mode of synaptic vesicle endocytosis called activity-dependent bulk endocytosis (ADBE). DynI has two main splice variants at its extreme C terminus, long or short (dynlxa and dynlxb) varying only by 20 (xa) or 7 (xb) residues. Recombinant GST fusion pro- teins of dynlxa and dynlxb proline-rich domains (PRDs) were used to pull down interacting proteins from rat brain nerve ter- minals. Both bound equally to syndapin, but dynlxb PRD exclu- sively bound to the catalytic subunit of CaNA, which recruited CaNB. Binding of CaN was increased in the presence of calcium and was accompanied by further recruitment of calmodulin. Point mutations showed that the entire C terminus of dynlxb is a CaN docking site related to a conserved CaN docking motif (PXIXI(TIS)), This sequence is unique to dynlxb among all other dynamin variants or genes. Peptide mimetics of the dynlxb tail blocked CaN binding in vitro and selectively inhibited depolar- ization-evoked dynl dephosphorylation in nerve terminals but not of other dephosphins. Therefore, docking to dynlxb is required for the regulation of both dynl splice variants, yet it does not regulate the phosphorylation cycle of other dephos- phins. The peptide blocked ADBE, but not clathrin-mediated endocytosis of synaptic vesicles. Our results indicate that Ca2+ influx regulates assembly of a fully active CaN-calmodulin com- plex selectively on the tail of dynlxb and that the complex is recruited to sites of ADBE in nerve terminals.

Objectives: This study sought to assess whether an antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) directed to apolipoprotein (a) [apo(a)] reduces apo(a) and lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] levels in transgenic mouse models. Background: Elevated Lp(a) is a causal, independent, genetic risk factor for cardiovascular disease and myocardial infarction. Effective therapies to specifically lower plasma Lp(a) levels are lacking. Methods: Three transgenic mouse models were utilized: 8K-apo(a) mice expressing 8 kringle IV (KIV) repeats with a single copy of KIV-2; 8K-Lp(a) mice expressing both the 8K apo(a) plus human apolipoprotein B-100; and 12K-apo(a) mice expressing a 12K apo(a) with 3 KIV-2 repeats. The mice were treated intraperitoneally with saline, a control ASO, or ASO 144367 directed to KIV-2 for 4 to 6 weeks. Apo(a), Lp(a), and oxidized phospholipids present on human apoB (OxPL/h-apoB) or apo(a) [OxPL/apo(a)] were measured at baseline and on and off therapy. Results: ASO 144367 significantly reduced Lp(a) by 24.8% in 8K-Lp(a) mice, and reduced apo(a) levels by 19.2% in 8K-Lp(a) mice, 30.0% in 8K-apo(a) mice, and 86% in 12K-apo(a) mice; ASO 144367 also significantly reduced OxPL/apoB 22.4% in 8K-Lp(a) mice, and OxPL/apo(a) levels by 19.9% in 8K-Lp(a) mice, 22.1% in 8K-apo(a) mice, and 92.5% in 12K-apo(a) mice (p < 0.004, or less, for all). No significant changes occurred in Lp(a), apo(a), OxPL/apoB, or OxPL/apo(a) levels with control ASO or saline. Conclusions: This study documents the first specific therapy, to our knowledge, for lowering apo(a)/Lp(a) levels and their associated OxPL. A more potent effect was documented in mice expressing apo(a) with multiple KIV-2 repeats. Targeting liver expression of apo(a) with ASOs directed to KIV-2 repeats may provide an effective approach to lower elevated Lp(a) levels in humans. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

PROTEIN kinases , *GENETIC mutation , *ACETYLATION , *DNA damage , *RADIATION , *HUMAN cell culture - Abstract
The recognition and signaling of DNA double strand breaks involves the participation of multiple proteins, including the protein kinase ATM (mutated in ataxia-telangiectasia). ATM kinase is activated in the vicinity of the break and is recruited to the break site by the Mre11-Rad50-Nbs1 complex, where it is fully activated. In human cells, the activation process involves autophosphorylation on three sites (Ser367, Ser1893, and Ser1981) and acetylation on Lys3016. We now describe the identification of a new ATM phosphorylation site, Thr(P)1885 and an additional autophosphorylation site, Ser(P)2996, that is highly DNA damage-inducible. We also confirm that human and murine ATM share five identical phosphorylation sites. We targeted the ATM phosphorylation sites, Ser367 and Ser2996, for further study by generating phosphospecific antibodies against these sites and demonstrated that phosphorylation of both was rapidly induced by radiation. These phosphorylations were abolished by a specific inhibitor of ATM and were dependent on ATM and the Mre11-Rad50-Nbs1 complex. As found for Ser(P)1981, ATM phosphorylated at Ser367 and Ser2996 localized to sites of DNA damage induced by radiation, but ATM recruitment was not dependent on phosphorylation at these sites. Phosphorylation at Ser367 and Ser2996 was functionally important because mutant forms of ATM were defective in correcting the S phase checkpoint defect and restoring radioresistance in ataxia-telangiectasia cells. These data provide further support for the importance of autophosphorylation in the activation and function of ATM in vivo. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: This paper asks whether the economic success of low cost carriers (LCCs) has been achieved through optimizations of network structures to liberalized market conditions. By examining the network structures of six successful LCCs, the paper moves away from the idea of a “low cost carrier model” and instead highlights the range of spatial strategies employed by budget airlines in liberalized marketplaces. Findings show that significantly different spatial models are employed by the six carriers examined in this study. Unlike previous studies on the networks structures of LCCs, this paper moves beyond any one specific region and looks at the networks of budget airlines in Asia, Europe, and North America. Fundamental differences in the network structures of LCCs on these three continents indicate that liberalization has allowed for the utilization of a variety of spatial operating models rather than a singular optimal model.

Abstract: A large number of drugs and other chemicals have been shown to induce hepatic microsomal cytochrome P450 (CYP) forms in experimental animals and humans. Most CYP forms are induced by receptor-mediated mechanisms leading to an increase in gene transcription. Important nuclear receptors involved in the induction of CYP1A, CYP2B, CYP3A and CYP4A subfamily forms comprise, respectively, the aryl hydrocarbon receptor, the constitutive androstane receptor, the pregnane X receptor and the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha. Hepatic CYP form induction can be assessed by in vivo, ex vivo and in vitro methods. Significant species differences can exist in the enzyme induction response to a given chemical and also in the toxicological consequences of induction. Hepatic CYP form induction in humans may lead to clinically important drug–drug interactions. In rodents hepatic CYP form induction can be associated with the formation of tumours by non-genotoxic modes of action in the liver, thyroid and other tissues. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Abstract: The Internet has often been portrayed as the ultimate leveler of information where existing hierarchies of power and privilege are undermined by meritocracy. Some websites and functions are, however, more equal than others. In particular, search engines such as Google have been a key means to construct meaning out of disorder. This ordering (or enclosing of the Internet commons), however, comes at a cost as a location within the top 10 Google search results, marks the boundary (albeit a fluid one) between the core and the periphery of the Internet. The recent incorporation of spatial elements into the Google indexing raises fresh and geographically relevant concerns. This article focuses on the construction, access and use of Google derived rankings to deploy geo-referenced information in the physical environment and the way this melding of code and place affects how people interact with place. Using the theoretical concept of DigiPlace this article analyzes how Google Maps and Google Earth are structured and shape what appears (and what does not) in cyberspace and DigiPlace. Of particular concern are the implications of a private corporation controlling this new space. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Dynamin I (dynl) is phosphorylated in synaptosomes at Ser774 and Ser778 by cyclin-dependent kinase 5 to regulate recruitment of syndapin I for synaptic vesicle endocytosis, and in PC12 cells on Ser857. Hierarchical phosphorylation of Ser774 precedes phosphorylation of Ser778. In contrast, Thr780 phosphorylation by cdk5 has been reported as the sole site (Tomizawa, K., Sunada, S., Lu, Y. F., Oda, Y., Kinuta, M., Ohshima, T., Saito, T., Wei, F. Y., Matsushita, M., Li, S. T., Tsutsui, K., Hisanaga, S. I., Mikoshiba, K., Takei, K., and Matsui, H. (2003) J. Cell Biol. 163, 813-824). To resolve the discrepancy and to better understand the biological roles of dynI phosphorylation, we undertook a systematic identification of all phosphorylation sites in rat brain nerve terminal dynl. Using phosphoamino acid analysis, exclusively phospho-serine residues were found. Thr780 phosphorylation was not detectable. Mutation of Ser774, Ser778, and Thr780 confirmed that Thr780 phosphorylation is restricted to in vitro conditions. Mass spectrometry of 32P-labeled phosphopeptides separated by two-dimensional mapping revealed seven in vivo phosphorylation sites: Ser774, Ser778, Ser822, Ser851, Ser857, Ser512, and Ser347. Quantification of 32P radiation in each phosphopeptide showed that Ser774 and Ser778 were the major sites (up to 69% of the total), followed by Ser851 and Ser857 (12%), and Ser853 (2%). Phosphorylation of Ser851 and Ser857 was restricted to the long tail splice variant dynIxa and was not hierarchical. Co-purified, 32P-labeled dynIII was phosphorylated at Ser759, Ser763, and Ser853. Ser853 is homologous to Ser851 in dynIxa. The results identify all major and several minor phosphorylation sites in dynI and provide the first measure of their relative abundance and relative responses to depolarization. The multiple phospho-sites suggest subtle regulation of synaptic vesicle endocytosis by new protein kinases and new protein-protein interactions. The homologous dynl and dynIII phosphorylation indicates a high mechanistic similarity. The results suggest a unique role for the long splice variants of dynI and dynIII in nerve terminals.

Background & Aims: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is characterized by excessive triglyceride accumulation in hepatocytes. Expression of the lipid droplet protein adipose differentiation-related protein (ADRP) is increased in NAFLD, but whether this is causally linked to hepatic lipid metabolism is unclear. We postulated that a reduction in ADRP would ameliorate hepatic steatosis and improve insulin action. Methods: Leptin deficient Lep
ob/ob and diet-induced obese (DIO) mice were treated with antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) against ADRP, and effects on hepatic and serum lipids and glucose homeostasis were examined. Results: ADRP ASO specifically decreased ADRP mRNA and protein levels in the livers of Lepob/ob and DIO mice, without altering the levels of other lipid droplet proteins, that is, S3-12 and TIP47. ADRP ASO suppressed expression of lipogenic genes, reduced liver triglyceride content without affecting cholesterol, attenuated triglyceride secretion, and decreased serum triglyceride and alanine aminotransaminase levels. The reduction in hepatic steatosis by ADRP ASO was associated with improvement in glucose homeostasis in both Lepob/ob and DIO mice. Conclusions: This study demonstrates a crucial role for the lipid droplet protein ADRP in regulation of lipid metabolism. Reduction in hepatic ADRP level using an antisense oligonucleotide reverses hepatic steatosis, hypertriglyceridemia, and insulin resistance in obese mice, suggesting that ADRP may be targeted for the treatment of NAFLD and associated lipid and glucose abnormalities.

Summary: Current understanding of microRNA (miRNA) biology is limited, and antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) inhibition of miRNAs is a powerful technique for their functionalization. To uncover the role of the liver-specific miR-122 in the adult liver, we inhibited it in mice with a 2′-O-methoxyethyl phosphorothioate ASO. miR-122 inhibition in normal mice resulted in reduced plasma cholesterol levels, increased hepatic fatty-acid oxidation, and a decrease in hepatic fatty-acid and cholesterol synthesis rates. Activation of the central metabolic sensor AMPK was also increased. miR-122 inhibition in a diet-induced obesity mouse model resulted in decreased plasma cholesterol levels and a significant improvement in liver steatosis, accompanied by reductions in several lipogenic genes. These results implicate miR-122 as a key regulator of cholesterol and fatty-acid metabolism in the adult liver and suggest that miR-122 may be an attractive therapeutic target for metabolic disease.

The goal of this research was to use a heuristic evaluation methodology to uncover design and interface deficiencies of infusion pumps that are currently in use in Intensive Care Units (ICUs). Because these infusion systems cannot be readily replaced due to lease agreements and large-scale institutional purchasing procedures, we argue that it is essential to systematically identify the existing usability problems so that the possible causes of errors can be better understood, passed on to the end-users (e.g., critical care nurses), and used to make policy recommendations.Four raters conducted the heuristic evaluation of the three-channel infusion pump interface. Three raters had a cognitive science background as well as experience with the heuristic evaluation methodology. The fourth rater was a veteran critical care nurse who had extensive experience operating the pumps. The usability experts and the domain expert independently evaluated the user interface and physical design of the infusion pump and generated a list of heuristic violations based upon a set of 14 heuristics developed in previous research. The lists were compiled and then rated on the severity of the violation.From 14 usability heuristics considered in this evaluation of the Infusion Pump, there were 231 violations. Two heuristics, “Consistency” and “Language”, were found to have the most violations. The one with fewest violations was “Document”. While some heuristic evaluation categories had more violations than others, the most severe ones were not confined to one type. The Primary interface location (e.g., where loading the pump, changing doses, and confirming drug settings takes place) had the most occurrences of heuristic violations.We believe that the Heuristic Evaluation methodology provides a simple and cost-effective approach to discovering medical device deficiencies that affect a patient''s general well being. While this methodology provides information for the infusion pump designs of the future, it also identifies important insights concerning equipment that is currently in use in critical care environments.

This paper presents the initial results of a multi-year irradiation project to evaluate the impact of manufacturing method and neutron irradiation (at doses up to 1.63 displacements per atom) on the heat capacity and thermal diffusivity of Additively Manufactured (AM) stainless steel 316 L, Inconel 718, and Inconel 625 samples at temperatures between 50 °C and 400 °C. When complete, the project will have tested 48 irradiated Laser Flash Analysis (LFA) and 48 irradiated Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) specimens. At the current time, the project has tested 10 irradiated DSC and 11 irradiated LFA specimens. The unirradiated AM specimens have heat capacity values similar to, or lower than, the reference values, regardless of manufacturing method or material. The irradiated AM specimens have average heat capacities greater than the unirradiated specimens and reference values in every case. The thermal diffusivities of the unirradiated AM specimens are either larger or statistically similar to the reference values obtained from materials manufactured in conventional methods. The irradiated AM specimens exhibit lower thermal diffusivities compared to the reference unirradiated thermal diffusivity values. One of the stainless steel 316 L laser powder bed fusion samples exhibited thermal diffusivity values with statistically significant anisotropy prior to and after irradiation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The qualitative and quantitative expression of three calmodulin genes (CAM I, CAM II and CAM III) was characterized in human neonatal melanocytes and metastatic melanoma cell lines in the absence and presence of serum, other growth modulators, and/or 12-0-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA). Results indicated that the qualitative expression in melanocytes was the same as that of melanomas, that is, CAM I gene expressed two transcripts, 4.4 kb and 2.1 kb, whereas CAM II and CAM III expressed one transcript each, 1.95 kb and 2.37 kb, respectively. Differential quantitative expression was seen particularly with CAM I. The average levels of both CAM I transcripts in melanomas were less than one-half those of melanocytes. Serum and other growth modulators (including Ca++, isobutyl methyl xanthine, bovine pituitary extract, and insulin) enhanced CAM I and CAM II gene expression in melanocytes; in contrast, the net effect of serum in melanomas was to decrease expression of CAM I and CAM III. This effect was most prominent in melanoma C81-46C. TPA markedly inhibited expression of all three CaM genes in melanocytes; however, in melanomas the net effect of TPA was to increase their expression. CAM I in melanoma C81-46C was the most sensitive to TPA stimulation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
The gut-microbe-derived metabolite trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) is increased by insulin resistance and associated with several sequelae of metabolic syndrome in humans, including cardiovascular, renal, and neurodegenerative disease. The mechanism by which TMAO promotes disease is unclear. We now reveal the endoplasmic reticulum stress kinase PERK (EIF2AK3) as a receptor for TMAO: TMAO binds to PERK at physiologically relevant concentrations; selectively activates the PERK branch of the unfolded protein response; and induces the transcription factor FoxO1, a key driver of metabolic disease, in a PERK-dependent manner. Furthermore, interventions to reduce TMAO, either by manipulation of the gut microbiota or by inhibition of the TMAO synthesizing enzyme, flavin-containing monooxygenase 3, can reduce PERK activation and FoxO1 levels in the liver. Taken together, these data suggest TMAO and PERK may be central to the pathogenesis of the metabolic syndrome. • Insulin resistance induces the enzyme FMO3, which produces TMAO • TMAO binds and activates PERK at pathologically relevant concentrations • PERK is required for the hyperglycemia induced by TMAO • Inhibition of FMO3 with 3,3′-diindolylmethane benefits insulin-resistant mice The gut-derived metabolite trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) is increased by insulin resistance. Chen et al. identify the endoplasmic reticulum stress kinase PERK as a receptor for TMAO: TMAO binds PERK, selectively activates the PERK arm of the unfolded protein response, and promotes hyperglycemia. The nutraceutical 3,3′-diindolylmethane reverses these effects, suggesting that the TMAO-PERK pathway could be targeted to ameliorate metabolic disorders. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Summary Metabolic plasticity has been linked to polarized macrophage function, but mechanisms connecting specific fuels to tissue macrophage function remain unresolved. Here we apply a stable isotope tracing, mass spectrometry-based untargeted metabolomics approach to reveal the metabolome penetrated by hepatocyte-derived glucose and ketone bodies. In both classically and alternatively polarized macrophages, [
13 C]acetoacetate (AcAc) labeled ∼200 chemical features, but its reduced form D-[13 C]β-hydroxybutyrate (D-βOHB) labeled almost none. [13 C]glucose labeled ∼500 features, and while unlabeled AcAc competed with only ∼15% of them, the vast majority required the mitochondrial enzyme succinyl-coenzyme A-oxoacid transferase (SCOT). AcAc carbon labeled metabolites within the cytoplasmic glycosaminoglycan pathway, which regulates tissue fibrogenesis. Accordingly, livers of mice lacking SCOT in macrophages were predisposed to accelerated fibrogenesis. Exogenous AcAc, but not D-βOHB, ameliorated diet-induced hepatic fibrosis. These data support a hepatocyte-macrophage ketone shuttle that segregates AcAc from D-βOHB, coordinating the fibrogenic response to hepatic injury via mitochondrial metabolism in tissue macrophages. Graphical Abstract Highlights • Macrophages oxidize acetoacetate (AcAc), but not β-hydroxybutyrate • Metabolism of AcAc in macrophages extends into pathways beyond the TCA cycle • Effective AcAc competition with glucose requires its mitochondrial metabolism • Mitochondrial AcAc metabolism in macrophages protects against liver fibrosis Puchalska et al. combine stable isotope tracing with untargeted metabolomics to identify the specific roles of the ketone bodies, acetoacetate (AcAc) and D-β-hydroxybutyrate (D-βOHB), in mediating metabolic plasticity in macrophages. They unveil a hepatocyte-macrophage ketone shuttle and show that AcAc protects the liver from high-fat-diet-induced fibrosis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

- Abstract
Summary Excess plasma triglycerides (TGs) are a key component of obesity-induced metabolic syndrome. We have shown that γ-secretase inhibitor (GSI) treatment improves glucose tolerance due to inhibition of hepatic Notch signaling but found additional Notch-independent reduction of plasma TG-rich lipoproteins (TRLs) in GSI-treated, as well as hepatocyte-specific, γ-secretase knockout ( L-Ncst ) mice, which suggested a primary effect on hepatocyte TRL uptake. Indeed, we found increased VLDL and LDL particle uptake in L - Ncst hepatocytes and Ncst -deficient hepatoma cells, in part through reduced γ-secretase-mediated low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) cleavage and degradation. To exploit this novel finding, we generated a liver-selective Nicastrin ASO, which recapitulated glucose and lipid improvements of L - Ncst mice, with increased levels of hepatocyte LDLR. Collectively, these results identify the role of hepatic γ-secretase to regulate LDLR and suggest that liver-specific GSIs may simultaneously improve multiple aspects of the metabolic syndrome.

Land use and land cover change are major drivers of water quality deterioration in watercourses and impoundments. However, understanding of the spatial and temporal variability of land use change characteristics and their link to water quality parameters in catchments is limited. As a contribution to address this limitation, the objective of this study is to assess the linkages between biophysico-chemical water quality parameters and land use and land cover (LULC) classes in the upper reaches of the uMngeni Catchment, a rapidly developing catchment in South Africa. These were assessed using Geographic Information Systems tools and statistical analyses for the years 1994, 2000, 2008 and 2011 based on changes over time of eight LULC classes and available water quality information. Natural vegetation, forest plantations and cultivated areas occupy 85% of the catchment. Cultivated, urban/built-up and degraded areas increased by 6%, 4.5% and 3%, respectively coinciding with a decrease in natural vegetation by 17%. Variability in the concentration of water quality parameters from 1994 to 2011 and an overall decline in water quality were observed. Escherichia coli (E. coli) levels exceeding the recommended guidelines for recreation and public health protection was noted as a major issue at seven of the nine sampling points. Overall, water supply reservoirs in the catchment retained over 20% of nutrients and over 85% of E. coli entering them. A relationship between land use types and water quality variables was found. However, the degree and magnitude of the associations varies between sub-catchments and is difficult to quantify. This highlights the complexity and the site-specific nature of relationships between land use types and water quality parameters in the catchment. Thus, this study provides useful findings on the general relationship between land use and land cover and water quality degradation, but highlights the risks of applying simple relationships or adding complex relationships in the management of the catchment.

Background: COVID-19 vaccines show excellent efficacy in clinical trials and effectiveness in real-world data, but some people still become infected with SARS-CoV-2 after vaccination. This study aimed to identify risk factors for post-vaccination SARS-CoV-2 infection and describe the characteristics of post-vaccination illness.Methods: This prospective, community-based, nested, case-control study used self-reported data (eg, on demographics, geographical location, health risk factors, and COVID-19 test results, symptoms, and vaccinations) from UK-based, adult (≥18 years) users of the COVID Symptom Study mobile phone app. For the risk factor analysis, cases had received a first or second dose of a COVID-19 vaccine between Dec 8, 2020, and July 4, 2021; had either a positive COVID-19 test at least 14 days after their first vaccination (but before their second; cases 1) or a positive test at least 7 days after their second vaccination (cases 2); and had no positive test before vaccination. Two control groups were selected (who also had not tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 before vaccination): users reporting a negative test at least 14 days after their first vaccination but before their second (controls 1) and users reporting a negative test at least 7 days after their second vaccination (controls 2). Controls 1 and controls 2 were matched (1:1) with cases 1 and cases 2, respectively, by the date of the post-vaccination test, health-care worker status, and sex. In the disease profile analysis, we sub-selected participants from cases 1 and cases 2 who had used the app for at least 14 consecutive days after testing positive for SARS-CoV-2 (cases 3 and cases 4, respectively). Controls 3 and controls 4 were unvaccinated participants reporting a positive SARS-CoV-2 test who had used the app for at least 14 consecutive days after the test, and were matched (1:1) with cases 3 and 4, respectively, by the date of the positive test, health-care worker status, sex, body-mass index (BMI), and age. We used univariate logistic regression models (adjusted for age, BMI, and sex) to analyse the associations between risk factors and post-vaccination infection, and the associations of individual symptoms, overall disease duration, and disease severity with vaccination status.Findings: Between Dec 8, 2020, and July 4, 2021, 1 240 009 COVID Symptom Study app users reported a first vaccine dose, of whom 6030 (0·5%) subsequently tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 (cases 1), and 971 504 reported a second dose, of whom 2370 (0·2%) subsequently tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 (cases 2). In the risk factor analysis, frailty was associated with post-vaccination infection in older adults (≥60 years) after their first vaccine dose (odds ratio [OR] 1·93, 95% CI 1·50-2·48; p<0·0001), and individuals living in highly deprived areas had increased odds of post-vaccination infection following their first vaccine dose (OR 1·11, 95% CI 1·01-1·23; p=0·039). Individuals without obesity (BMI <30 kg/m2) had lower odds of infection following their first vaccine dose (OR 0·84, 95% CI 0·75-0·94; p=0·0030). For the disease profile analysis, 3825 users from cases 1 were included in cases 3 and 906 users from cases 2 were included in cases 4. Vaccination (compared with no vaccination) was associated with reduced odds of hospitalisation or having more than five symptoms in the first week of illness following the first or second dose, and long-duration (≥28 days) symptoms following the second dose. Almost all symptoms were reported less frequently in infected vaccinated individuals than in infected unvaccinated individuals, and vaccinated participants were more likely to be completely asymptomatic, especially if they were 60 years or older.Interpretation: To minimise SARS-CoV-2 infection, at-risk populations must be targeted in efforts to boost vaccine effectiveness and infection control measures. Our findings might support caution around relaxing physical distancing and other personal protective measures in the post-vaccination era, particularly around frail older adults and individuals living in more deprived areas, even if these individuals are vaccinated, and might have implications for strategies such as booster vaccinations.Funding: ZOE, the UK Government Department of Health and Social Care, the Wellcome Trust, the UK Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, UK Research and Innovation London Medical Imaging and Artificial Intelligence Centre for Value Based Healthcare, the UK National Institute for Health Research, the UK Medical Research Council, the British Heart Foundation, and the Alzheimer's Society.

Abstract: A novel and unexpected ring-expansion reaction of 1,2-benzisoxazol-3-ones is identified. The scope of this reaction is exemplified and the proposed mechanism is also implicated in another degradation process. This reaction also represents a new method for accessing the 4H-1,3-benzoxazin-4-one skeleton. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
