Characterization of human pseudogene-derived non-coding RNAs for functional potential. by Xingyi Guo, Mingyan Lin, Shira Rockowitz, Herbert M Lachman, Deyou Zheng

“…Cross-tissue comparison revealed that the transcriptional profiles of pseudogenes and their parent genes showed mostly positive correlations, suggesting that pseudogene transcription could have a positive effect on the expression of their parent genes, perhaps by functioning as competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs), as previously suggested and demonstrated with the PTEN pseudogene, PTENP1. …”

Touching at a distance: the elaboration of communicative functions from the perspective of the interactants by Robin Héron, Stéphane Safin, Michael Baker, Zhuoming Zhang, Eric Lecolinet, Françoise Détienne

“…Through analysis of the interviews, our results highlight: (1) a variety of visual-touch functions with a redistribution of functions mostly supported by other modalities of communication in face-to-face interactions, such as illustrating aspects of the ongoing conversation; (2) the visual-touch characteristics as well as the verbal, paraverbal and non-verbal indicators of the interactional context considered by the participants to make sense of the stimuli and; (3) the multifactorial and dynamic aspects of the co-elaboration process of the visual-touch functions, reaffirming the role of interactional context, combined with cultural and biographical knowledge, in the meaning making.…”

Cachexia Alters Central Nervous System Morphology and Functionality in Cancer Patients by Estefania Simoes, Ricardo Uchida, Mariana P. Nucci, Fabio L. S. Duran, Joanna D. C. C. Lima, Leonardo R. Gama, Naomi A. Costa, Maria C. G. Otaduy, Fang C. Bin, Jose P. Otoch, Paulo Alcantara, Alexandre Ramos, Alessandro Laviano, Mauricio Berriel Diaz, Margaret M. Esiri, Gabriele C. DeLuca, Stephan Herzig, Geraldo Busatto Filho, Marilia Seelaender

“…Conclusions Our results indicate that cachexia compromises CNS morphology mostly causing changes in the GM of cachectic patients, leading to alterations in regional volume patterns, functional connectivity, neuronal morphology, neuroglia profile and inducing neuroinflammation, all of which may contribute to the loss of homeostasis control and to deficient information processing, as well as to the metabolic and behavioural derangements commonly observed in human cachexia. …”
