Repeated sevoflurane exposure causes hypomyelination in the prefrontal cortex of adult male mice by Linyong Zhang, Zhidan Ke, Ning Zhang, Dechuan Wang, Liang Zhou

“…This may be owing to an accumulated tuberous sclerosis complex 1 (TSC1) expression and inhibition of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling, leading to the unbalance of TSC1-mTORC1 activity after repeated sevoflurane exposure, which is critical for proper myelination of the central nervous system (CNS). …”

DDX1 is required for non-spliceosomal splicing of tRNAs but not of XBP1 mRNA by Teruhiko Suzuki, Satoko Takagi, Junta Funada, Yuka Egawa, Mana Yamakawa, Takahiko Hara

“…To analyze the functions of DDX1 in mammalian cells, we generated DDX1 cKO cells from the polyploid human U2OS cell line and found that splicing of intron-containing tRNAs was significantly disturbed in DDX1-deficient cells, whereas endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-induced splicing of XBP1 mRNA was unaffected. …”

Gelatin Nanoemulsion-Based Co-Delivery of Terbinafine and Essential Oils for Treatment of <i>Candida albicans</i> Biofilms by Muhammad Aamir Hassan, Sadaf Noor, Jungmi Park, Ahmed Nabawy, Maitri Dedhiya, Robin Patel, Vincent M. Rotello

“…Eugenol and methyl eugenol/terbinafine T-GNEs had an additive efficacy, while carvacrol (CT-GNE) worked synergistically with terbinafine, providing effective antifungal treatment with minimal mammalian cell toxicity. Confocal microscopy demonstrated that CT-GNE penetrated the dense <i>C. albicans</i> biofilm and disrupted the fungal cell membrane. …”

The bacterial response regulator ArcA uses a diverse binding site architecture to regulate carbon oxidation globally. by Dan M Park, Md Sohail Akhtar, Aseem Z Ansari, Robert Landick, Patricia J Kiley

“…We propose that this strategy favors use of catabolic pathways that recycle redox carriers via fermentation akin to lactate production in mammalian cells. Unexpectedly, bioinformatic analysis of the sequences bound by ArcA in ChIP-seq revealed that most ArcA binding sites contain additional direct repeat elements beyond the two required for binding an ArcA dimer. …”

Does fast running limit numerical variability of the vertebral column in rabbits and hares (Leporidae: Lagomorpha)? by Megu Gunji, Nuttakorn Taewcharoen, Fumio Yamada, Emma Sherratt

“…In mammalian vertebral columns, locomotive ability is expected to be an evolutionary driver of variation in the number of vertebrae; in species evolved to run fast or have a flexible vertebral column, they generally have limited numerical variation and low occurrence of malformed vertebrae to maintain their running performance. …”
