Mutation update: TGFBI pathogenic and likely pathogenic variants in corneal dystrophies

Human transforming growth factor beta-induced (TGFBI), is a gene responsible for various corneal dystrophies. TGFBI produces a protein called TGFBI, which is involved in cell adhesion and serves as a recognition sequence for integrins. An alteration in cel ...

Sex-dependent and sex-independent regulatory systems of size variation in natural populations

Bart Deplancke, Vincent Roland Julien Gardeux, Ernst Hafen

Size of organs/organisms is a polygenic trait. Many of the growth-regulatory genes constitute conserved growth signaling pathways. However, how these multiple genes are orchestrated at the systems level to attain the natural variation in size including sex ...

Required growth facilitators propel axon regeneration across complete spinal cord injury

Grégoire Courtine, Mark Andrew Anderson, Nicholas David James, Cheng Wang, Sabry Leonardo Barlatey, Michael V. Sofroniew, Zhigang He

Transected axons fail to regrow across anatomically complete spinal cord injuries (SCI) in adults. Diverse molecules can partially facilitate or attenuate axon growth during development or after injury1,2,3, but efficient reversal of this regrowth failure ...

An essential thioredoxin is involved in the control of the cell cycle in the bacterium Caulobacter crescentus

Camille Véronique Bernadette Goemans

Thioredoxins (Trxs) are antioxidant proteins that are conserved among all species. These proteins have been extensively studied and perform reducing reactions on a broad range of substrates. Here, we identified Caulobacter crescentus Trx1 (CCNA_03653; CcTr ...

Chemical composition, nutrient-balancing and biological treatment of hand washing greywater

Eva Reynaert

On-site biological hand washing water treatment can improve global access to safe hand washing water, but requires a thorough understanding of the chemical composition of the water to be treated, and an effective treatment strategy. This study first presen ...

Combination of ruthenium(II)-arene complex [Ru(eta(6)-p-cymene)Cl-2(pta)] (RAPTA-C) and the epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitor erlotinib results in efficient angiostatic and antitumor activity

Paul Joseph Dyson, Patrycja Nowak-Sliwinska, Ume-Gulsoom Abdul, Patrick Meraldi

Ruthenium-based compounds show strong potential as anti-cancer drugs and are being investigated as alternatives to other well-established metal-based chemotherapeutics. The organometallic compound [Ru(eta(6)-p-cymene) Cl-2(pta)], where pta = 1,3,5-triaza-7 ...
