Inflammatory processes underlying cognitive deficits in schizophrenia: epigenetic mechanisms and pharmacological regulation

Cognitive deficits represent nuclear symptoms of schizophrenia and are considered prognostic factors of the disease. Moreover, they are resistant to the currently available treatments and it is clinically suspected that atypical antipsychotics might worsen cognitive conditions of schizophrenic patients. Preliminary data indicate the involvement of epigenetic regulation of histone deacetylases (HDACs) in this effect and the possibility of neuroinflammmatory activity as the inductor mechanism. In the etiopathogenesis of schizophrenia a double-hit phenomenon has been suggested. Thus, a prenatal priming event that would induce vulnerability is followed by a second stressful hit in peripuberty. Physio- and psychopathology could emerge from these mechanisms through neuroinflammatory hyperactivity. The aim of the present project is to study the relationship between cognitive deficits and neuroinflammatory activity in a traslational ""double hit"" mouse model based on the maternal inmmune activation during gestation followed by social isolation at puberty. In this animal model will be evaluated: 1) Gene and protein expression of inflammatory signalling proteins, HDACs and the status of histone acetylation; 2) Cognitive and psychotic status by means of validated behavioural tests; 3) Modulation of cognitive responses by chronic treatment with the antipsychotic clozapine, the HDAC inhibitor SAHA and the inflammatory activity inhibitor minocycline. Cognitive responses will be related to neuroinflammatory alterations at molecular level. The findings in the animal model will be compared with those obtained in the study of neuroinflammation markers, HDACs expression and histone acetylation status in postmortem human prefrontal cortex of subjects with schizophrenia under antipsychotic treatment or drug-free conditions and matched controls. In these subjects the possibility of an excess of inflammatory activity associated to antipsychotic treatment will be analyzed.
Características de las precipitaciones en zonas áridas de la Patagonia Norte, Argentina

La precipitación es determinante de múltiples procesos en zonas áridas. Abordar su variabilidad es difícil en áreas extensas y de baja densidad de registros como la Patagonia norte. El objetivo de este trabajo es caracterizar la variación temporal y espacial de las precipitaciones, y evaluar productos satelitales de lluvia para esta región. Con los registros diarios de seis estaciones pluviométricas del período 1956-2019, calculamos la acumulada mensual, estacional y anual, sus promedios y tendencias. Además, evaluamos la relación de esos registros con los productos satelitales GPM y TRMM. La precipitación anual varió entre 100 y 640 mm.año-1, con una media entre 100 y 300 mm.año-1 en los últimos cinco años, y tendencia decreciente en las últimas dos décadas. Detectamos una tendencia decreciente en el número de días con precipitación por año y de las precipitaciones inferiores a 10 mm.día-1. La precipitación media diaria mostró una leve tendencia al aumento igual que los registros mayores a 10 mm.día-1. GPM representó mejor la variabilidad pero ninguno de los dos productos captó la magnitud de las precipitaciones. Es necesario continuar con actualizaciones, datos de mayor detalle y seguimiento de la variabilidad de las precipitaciones.

Trends in Serum Lipids Among US Youths Aged 6 to 19 Years, 1988-2010

For more than 20 years, primary prevention of coronary heart disease has included strategies intended to improve overall serum lipid concentrations among youths.To examine trends in lipid concentrations among youths from 1988-1994 through 2007-2010.Cross-sectional analysis of serum lipid concentrations among 16,116 youths aged 6 to 19 years who participated in the nationally representative National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey during 3 time periods: 1988-1994, 1999-2002, and 2007-2010.Among all youths, mean serum total cholesterol (TC), non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C); and among adolescents only, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and geometric mean triglyceride levels. Trends in adverse lipid concentrations are reported for TC levels of 200 mg/dL and greater, non-HDL-C levels of 145 mg/dL and greater, HDL-C levels of less than 40 mg/dL, LDL-C levels of 130 mg/dL and greater, and triglyceride levels of 130 mg/dL and greater.Among youths aged 6 to 19 years between 1988-1994 and 2007-2010, there was a decrease in mean TC (from 165 mg/dL [95% CI, 164-167] to 160 mg/dL [95% CI, 158-161]; P < .001) and a decrease in the prevalence of elevated TC (from 11.3% [95% CI, 9.8%-12.7%] to 8.1% [95% CI, 6.7%-9.5%]; P = .002). Mean HDL-C significantly increased between 1988-1994 and 2007-2010, but the prevalence of low HDL-C did not change. Mean non-HDL-C and prevalence of elevated non-HDL-C both significantly decreased over the study period. In 2007-2010, 22% (95% CI, 20.3%-23.6%) of youths had either a low HDL-C level or high non-HDL-C, which was lower than the 27.2% (95% CI, 24.6%-29.7%) in 1988-1994 (P = .001). Among adolescents (aged 12-19 years) between 1988-1994 and 2007-2010, there was a decrease in mean LDL-C (from 95 mg/dL [95% CI, 92-98] to 90 mg/dL [95% CI, 88-91]; P = .003) and a decrease in geometric mean triglycerides (from 82 mg/dL [95% CI, 78-86] to 73 mg/dL [95% CI, 70-76]; P < .001). Prevalence of elevated LDL-C and triglycerides between 1988-1994 and 2007-2010 also significantly decreased.Between 1988-1994 and 2007-2010, a favorable trend in serum lipid concentrations was observed among youths in the United States but almost 1 in 10 had elevated TC in 2007-2010.

A retrospective study of nine cases of Acanthamoeba keratitis

To evaluate the clinical features of Acanthamoeba keratitis in nine patients diagnosed at Dokkyo Medical University Koshigaya Hospital, Saitama, Japan.In nine eyes of nine patients, Acanthamoeba keratitis was diagnosed by direct light microscopy of corneal scrapings stained by the Parker ink-potassium hydroxide method between September 2006 and September 2009. Their clinical features and course were studied retrospectively. Antifungal eye drops, systemic antifungal therapy, and surgical debridement of the corneal lesions were performed in all patients.At presentation, the clinical stage was initial in six cases, transient in one case, and complete in two cases. The patients were all contact lens wearers who had washed their lens storage cases with tap water. After treatment, final visual acuity was improved in six cases, unchanged in one case, and worse in two cases. The patient with the worst final vision (hand motion) had rheumatoid arthritis and was taking oral prednisolone, which led to corneal perforation and prevented adequate debridement from being done.Acanthamoeba keratitis is closely related to wearing contact lenses and washing the lens storage case with tap water. Although final visual acuity improved after treatment in most patients, insufficient surgical debridement resulted in a poor visual prognosis.

Studies on variability, correlation and path analysis in Sesame{Sesamum indicumL.)

A field experiment was conducted with forty five hybrids developed by using fourteen genotypes of sesame in Line x Tester mating design. Observations were recorded for ten traits viz., days to first flowering, days to maturity, plant height, number of primary branches, number of secondary branches, number of capsules in main stem, total number of capsules per plant, number of seeds per capsule, 100 seed weight and single plant yield. Analysis of variance revealed the significant variation among the genotypes for the traits studied. High and moderate heritability estimates coupled with high genetic advance over mean observed for number of primary and secondary branches indicated the role of additive gene effects and hence selection may be effective in improving both these traits. High heritability accompanied with low genetic advance was observed for all other observed traits, where non-additive gene action was predominant. Seed yield per plant showed significant and positive correlation with days to first flowering, number of secondary branches, total number of capsules per plant and number of seeds per capsule, which can be relied upon for yield improvement. The traits like number of secondary branches, number of capsules in main stem, number of seeds per capsule expressed positive direct effect on single plant yield, while days to maturity, total number of capsules per plant and 100 seed weight had negative direct effect. Hence, number of secondary branches, total number of capsules per plant and number of seeds per capsule may be relied upon for increasing the seed yield in sesame
Change detection analysis of the shoreline using Toposheet and Satellite Image: A case study of the coastal stretch of Mandarmani-Shankarpur, West Bengal, India

Change detection helps in ascertaining shoreline trend analysis and its future prediction. In this study, the coastal tract of the part of West Bengal, which is sensitive to rapid shoreline change is chosen. Applying remote sensing and GIS techniques on the multi-temporal satellite image and topo-sheets, shoreline extraction using water index and subsequent change detection analysis have been carried out to assess the erosion-accretion pattern in the region at both regional and local scale. Depending on the erosional pattern, the entire study area was divided into four erosional-cells, and independent study was carried out in different cells. The results exhibit that this coastal region has been experiencing erosion. Excluding the contribution of inland water bodies, it has been estimated that between 1950 and 2005, a vast stretch of the land has been engulfed by the sea-water. This clearly signifies the necessity of coastal zone protection measures to be implemented in the area.

Uncovering antiviral mechanisms in the insect gut during oral virus infection

Insect-mediated transmission of viruses is an increasing threat to public health and agricultural productivity in Europe and abroad. New strategies to disrupt transmission of viruses by insects are essential and will be facilitated by knowledge of infection processes and antiviral mechanisms. Most transmission cycles involve oral acquisition of viruses by insects, but knowledge of oral virus infections is limited. Here I propose the DmGAR project (Drosophila melanogaster gut antiviral responses) to provide the first detailed picture of oral virus infection processes in the insect gut. I aim to harness the experimental tractability of D. melanogaster to characterize the dynamics of and genetic responses to oral virus infection and to investigate the interface of viral infection with intestinal physiology.

I hypothesize that stem cell-driven gut epithelium renewal is coordinated with immune mechanisms and is crucial for clearance of oral virus infections. To investigate this hypothesis and accomplish the objectives of DmGAR, I will bring my expertise in host-virus interactions to the Saleh laboratory to study oral infections with naturally infecting viruses of D. melanogaster. I will spatially and temporally define the kinetics and outcomes of infection, determine whether the viruses spread beyond the gut, and if escape from the gut influences infection outcome. Informed by these data, I will evaluate if virus infection impacts rates of epithelial cell death and/or proliferation in the gut and if blockage of epithelial cell turnover influences virus titer, infection outcome, or infection kinetics. I will complement these studies by profiling cell-type-specific gene expression and assaying activation of cell signaling pathways to develop a mechanistic model of the response to oral virus infection in the insect gut. Through these approaches, DmGAR will provide robust and biologically relevant data that will enhance understanding of natural virus infection processes

Structural Basis of Functional Group Activation by Sulfotransferases in Complex Metabolic Pathways

Sulfated molecules with diverse functions are common in biology, but sulfonation as a method to activate a metabolite for chemical catalysis is rare. Catalytic activity was characterized and crystal structures were determined for two such "activating" sulfotransferases (STs) that sulfonate β-hydroxyacyl thioester substrates. The CurM polyketide synthase (PKS) ST domain from the curacin A biosynthetic pathway of Moorea producens and the olefin synthase (OLS) ST from a hydrocarbon-producing system of Synechococcus PCC 7002 both occur as a unique acyl carrier protein (ACP), ST, and thioesterase (TE) tridomain within a larger polypeptide. During pathway termination, these cyanobacterial systems introduce a terminal double bond into the β-hydroxyacyl-ACP-linked substrate by the combined action of the ST and TE. Under in vitro conditions, CurM PKS ST and OLS ST acted on β-hydroxy fatty acyl-ACP substrates; however, OLS ST was not reactive toward analogues of the natural PKS ST substrate bearing a C5-methoxy substituent. The crystal structures of CurM ST and OLS ST revealed that they are members of a distinct protein family relative to other prokaryotic and eukaryotic sulfotransferases. A common binding site for the sulfonate donor 3'-phosphoadenosine-5'-phosphosulfate was visualized in complexes with the product 3'-phosphoadenosine-5'-phosphate. Critical functions for several conserved amino acids in the active site were confirmed by site-directed mutagenesis, including a proposed glutamate catalytic base. A dynamic active-site flap unique to the "activating" ST family affects substrate selectivity and product formation, based on the activities of chimeras of the PKS and OLS STs with exchanged active-site flaps.
A peripheral component interconnect express-based scalable and highly integrated pulsed spectrometer for solution state dynamic nuclear polarization

High sensitivity, high data rates, fast pulses, and accurate synchronization all represent challenges for modern nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometers, which make any expansion or adaptation of these devices to new techniques and experiments difficult. Here, we present a Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe)-based highly integrated distributed digital architecture pulsed spectrometer that is implemented with electron and nucleus double resonances and is scalable specifically for broad dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) enhancement applications, including DNP-magnetic resonance spectroscopy/imaging (DNP-MRS/MRI). The distributed modularized architecture can implement more transceiver channels flexibly to meet a variety of MRS/MRI instrumentation needs. The proposed PCIe bus with high data rates can significantly improve data transmission efficiency and communication reliability and allow precise control of pulse sequences. An external high speed double data rate memory chip is used to store acquired data and pulse sequence elements, which greatly accelerates the execution of the pulse sequence, reduces the TR (time of repetition) interval, and improves the accuracy of TR in imaging sequences. Using clock phase-shift technology, we can produce digital pulses accurately with high timing resolution of 1 ns and narrow widths of 4 ns to control the microwave pulses required by pulsed DNP and ensure overall system synchronization. The proposed spectrometer is proved to be both feasible and reliable by observation of a maximum signal enhancement factor of approximately -170 for (1)H, and a high quality water image was successfully obtained by DNP-enhanced spin-echo (1)H MRI at 0.35 T.
Assisting coral reef survival in the face of climate change

CORALASSIST spans the disciplines of evolutionary biology, restoration ecology and proteomics and examines the role assisted gene flow (AGF) can play in sustaining biodiversity and ecosystem services in the face of climate change. AGF involves the deliberate movement of individuals or gametes within their natural range to facilitate adaptation to environmental change. Corals reefs provide an excellent model for testing AGF as a conservation tool because reef building corals are foundation species and are highly vulnerable to thermal stress. Selective breeding and translocation of thermotolerant individuals may lead to reductions in recipient population fitness due to resource trade-offs with other fitness traits, such as growth and fecundity. The overall aim of CORALASSIST is to establish the feasibility of implementing AGF in coral reef ecosystems using a combination of selective breeding, proteomics and innovative translocation techniques. CORALASSIST will address four primary questions: 1) Are there resource trade-offs between increased thermotolerance and other fitness traits in corals? 2) Which physiological and proteomic traits correlate with increased individual thermotolerance in corals? 3) Are phenotypic traits for thermotolerance heritable? 4) Can AGF and selective breeding lead to persistent shifts in thermotolerance in recipient populations? Phenotypic traits will be measured in permanently tagged individuals within selected coral populations to examine the relationships between thermotolerance and key fitness attributes. For the first time, state of the art proteomic approaches will be used to elucidate the physiological basis for increased levels of thermotolerance in corals. Innovative translocation methods will be used in tandem with selective breeding techniques to carry out the first long term assessment of heritability of thermotolerance and to test the feasibility of large scale AGF to assist conservation of coral reef ecosystems.
