Aspirin inhibits proteasomal degradation and promotes α-synuclein aggregate clearance through K63 ubiquitination by Jing Gao, Yang Liu, Chenfang Si, Rui Guo, Shouqiao Hou, Xiaosong Liu, Houfang Long, Di Liu, Daichao Xu, Zai-Rong Zhang, Cong Liu, Bing Shan, Christoph W. Turck, Kaiwen He, Yaoyang Zhang

“…We further reveal that the α-syn aggregate clearance induced by aspirin is K63-ubiquitination dependent in both cells and PD mice. These findings suggest two complementary mechanisms by which aspirin regulates the degradation of soluble and insoluble proteins, providing insights into its diverse pharmacological effects that can aid in future drug development efforts.…”

Cutland, Shabir A. Madhi

“…Non-inferiority was concluded when the lower limit of the 96% confidence interval of the ratio of geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) of the 1 + 1 and 2 + 1 schedules was >0.5 for at least 10 and eight of the PCV13 and PCV10 serotypes, respectively.Results GMCs in children who received the PCV13_6w + 1 and PCV13_14w + 1 schedule were non-inferior for 11 and 10 of the PCV13 serotypes, respectively, compared with the PCV13_2 + 1 arm. For PCV10, GMCs for both 1 + 1 schedules were non-inferior to a 2 + 1 schedule for nine of the PCV10 serotypes.Conclusion Transitioning to a 1 + 1 schedule should be considered for early immunization programs.Clinical trial registration www.clinicaltrials.gov identifier is NCT02943902.…”
