PmtA functions as a ferrous iron and cobalt efflux pump in Streptococcus suis by Chengkun Zheng, Mengdie Jia, Miaomiao Gao, Tianyu Lu, Lingzhi Li, Pingping Zhou

“…Here, we established that PmtA functions as a ferrous iron [Fe(II)] and cobalt [Co(II)] efflux pump in Streptococcus suis, an emerging zoonotic pathogen responsible for severe infections in both humans and pigs. pmtA expression is induced by Fe(II), Co(II), and nickel [Ni(II)], whereas PmtA protects S. suis against Fe(II) and ferric iron [Fe(III)]-induced bactericidal effect, as well as Co(II) and zinc [Zn(II)]-induced bacteriostatic effect. …”

Mitochondrial respiration atlas reveals differential changes in mitochondrial function across sex and age by Dylan C Sarver, Muzna Saqib, Fangluo Chen, G William Wong

“…Our high-resolution mitochondrial respiration atlas reveals: (1) within any group of mice, mitochondrial activity varies widely across tissues, with the highest values consistently seen in heart, brown fat, and kidney; (2) biological sex is a significant but minor contributor to mitochondrial respiration, and its contributions are tissue-specific, with major differences seen in the pancreas, stomach, and white adipose tissue; (3) age is a dominant factor affecting mitochondrial activity, especially across most brain regions, different fat depots, skeletal muscle groups, eyes, and different regions of the gastrointestinal tract; (4) age effects can be sex- and tissue-specific, with some of the largest effects seen in pancreas, heart, adipose tissue, and skeletal muscle; and (5) while aging alters the functional trajectories of mitochondria in a majority of tissues, some are remarkably resilient to age-induced changes. …”

Functional network differences between unilateral and bilateral deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus by Brendan Santyr, Alexandre Boutet, Mohamad Abbass, Artur Vetkas, Jürgen Germann, Afis Ajala, Jianwei Qiu, Gavin J. B. Elias, Can Sarica, Andrew Z. Yang, Ibrahim Alhashyan, Suneil K. Kalia, Alfonso Fasano, Andres M. Lozano

“…Abstract Unilateral versus bilateral implantation is a critical surgical consideration for deep brain stimulation in Parkinson’s disease; however, the differing therapeutic effects remain incompletely understood. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging during active stimulation, we show that bilateral stimulation reinforces the recruitment of key motor hubs while reducing non-motor responses seen with unilateral stimulation and correlates with improved outcomes. …”
