VHL tumour suppressor gene

description: Funder: University of Cambridge
description: Abstract: Purpose of Review: In this review, we discuss the key molecular and clinical developments in VHL disease that have the potential to impact on the natural history of the disease and improve patient outcomes. Recent Findings: Identifiable mutations in VHL underlie most cases of VHL and define clear genotype-phenotype correlations. Detailed clinical and molecular characterisation has allowed the implementation of lifelong screening programmes that have improved clinical outcomes. Functional characterisation of the VHL protein complex has revealed its role in oxygen sensing and the mechanisms of tumourigenesis that are now being exploited to develop novel therapies for VHL and renal cancer. Summary: The molecular and cellular landscape of VHL-associated tumours is revealing new opportunities to modify the natural history of the disease and develop therapies. Drugs are now entering clinical trials and combined with improved clinical and molecular diagnosis, and lifelong surveillance programmes, further progress towards reducing the morbidity and mortality associated with VHL disease is anticipated.

description: Using quantum measurements to extract information from states is a matter of routine in quantum science and technologies. A recent work [Phys. Rev. Lett. 133, 040202 (2024)] reported the finding that the symmetric structures of a state can be harnessed to dramatically reduce the sample complexity in extracting information from the state. However, due to the presence of noise, the actual state at hand is often corrupted, making its symmetric structures distorted before the execution of quantum measurements. Here, using the methodology of quantum metrology, we identify the optimal measurement that can retrieve maximum information of a symmetric state from its corrupted copies. We show that this measurement can be found by solving a semidefinite program in generic cases and can be explicitly determined for a large class of noise models covariant under the symmetry group in question. The results of this study nicely complement the recent work by providing a method to optimally utilize the distorted symmetric structures of corrupted states for information retrieval.

description: Time-averaged trapping potentials have played an important role in the development of the field of ultracold atoms. Despite their widespread application, there is not yet a complete understanding of when a system can be considered time-averaged. Here we use Floquet theory to analyse the lowest energy state of time-periodic trapping potentials, and characterise the transition from a localised state in a slowly moving trap to a delocalised state in a rapidly oscillating time-averaged potential. We investigate how the driving parameters affect the density and phase of the Floquet ground state, and provide a quantitative measure of the degree to which they can be considered time-averaged. We study a number of simple representative systems, and comment on the features affecting the experimental realisation of time-averaged trapping potentials.

description: Abstract: Planar Goubau lines show promise as high frequency, low-loss waveguides on a substrate. However, to date only numerical simulations and experimental measurements have been performed. This paper analytically investigates the surface wave mode propagating along a planar Goubau line consisting of a perfectly conducting circular wire on top of a dielectric substrate of finite thickness but infinite width. An approximate equation for the propagation constant is derived and solved through numerical integration. The dependence of the propagation constant on various system parameters is calculated and the results agree well with full numerical simulations. In addition, the spatial distribution of the longitudinal electric field is reported and excellent agreement with a numerical simulation and previous studies is found. Moreover, validation against experimental phase velocity measurements is also reported. Finally, insights gained from the model are considered for a Goubau line with a rectangular conductor. The analytic model reveals that the propagating mode of a planar Goubau line is hybrid in contrast to the transverse magnetic mode of a classic Goubau line.

description: We present the description and the first results of a new project devoted to the search for extremely metal-deficient blue compact/HII-galaxies (BCGs) and to the creation of a well selected large BCG sample with strong emission lines. Such galaxies should be suitable for reliable determination of their oxygen abundance through the measurement of the faint [OIII]4363A line. The goals of the project are two-fold: a) to discover a significant number of new extremely metal-poor galaxies (Z <= 1/20 Zo), and b) to study the metallicity distribution of local BCGs. Selection of candidates for follow-up slit spectroscopy is performed on the database of objective prism spectra of the Hamburg Quasar Survey. The sky region is limited by delta >= 0 deg. and b^ii <= -30 deg. In this paper we present the results of the follow-up spectroscopy conducted with the Russian 6m telescope. The list of observed candidates contained 52 objects, of which 46 were confirmed as strong-lined BCGs (EW([OIII]5007) >= 100 A). The remaining five lower excitation ELGs include three BCGs, and two galaxies classified as SBN (Starburst Nucleus) and DANS (Dwarf Amorphous Nucleus Starburst). One object is identified as a quasar with a strong Ly_alpha emission line near 5000 A (z~3). We provide a list with coordinates, measured radial velocities, B-magnitudes, equivalent widths EW([OIII]5007) and EW(H_beta) and for the 46 strong-lined BCGs the derived oxygen abundances 12+log(O/H). The abundances range between 7.42 and 8.4 (corresponding to metallicities between 1/30 and 1/3 Zo). The sample contains four galaxies with Z < 1/20 Zo, of which three are new discoveries.

description: The coconut palm weevil, Rhynchophorus palmarum L. (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) is a serious pest of coconuts (Cocos nucifera L.) in Trinidad. Rhynchophorus palmarum can cause direct as well as indirect damage to coconut trees. Apart from causing death of trees or little leaf syndrome, it is the vector of the nematode Bursaphelenchus cocophilus which causes red ring disease. This disease has been devastating the coconut industry for over 100 years and trees between 3-10 years old are highly susceptible. Management of the disease has been through field sanitation and trapping of R. palmarum. Trapping of the vector has been demonstrated to reduce the incidence of red ring disease in Malaysia, Brazil and Costa Rica. Traps were used with the aggregation pheromone Rhynchophorol (Rhyncholure®) together with sugarcane or fruit baits and an insecticide. In September 2010 a pre-trial was initiated at four locations in Trinidad to examine the efficacy of using baited traps with Rhyncholure® in reducing populations of R. palmarum. Each location was isolated from one another by several kilometres and comprised approximately 1.0 hectare with about 200 coconut trees that were less than 10 years old. At each location one trap made of a discarded 4-litre oil container containing the lure, sugarcane bait and a carbamate insecticide was placed about 1.5 metres high on a leaf petiole close to the trunk of the coconut tree in the middle of the field. The traps were examined weekly for a period of 16 weeks and the number of coconut palm weevils was recorded. The sugarcane bait and insecticide were changed bi-weekly. A total of 651 of these insects was collected over the period with the highest number at Centeno (255) followed by Valencia (186), Carlsen Field (151) and Kelly (59). The results show that the trapping system used was effective in trapping R. palmarum and thus reduce their population in the environment. Based on the data gathered, long term trials will now be established to manage R. palmarum and in so doing manage the spread of Bursaphelenchus cocophilus the causal organism of red ring disease.

description: We present an extensive sample of ultra-wide binary stars in the solar neighborhood, focusing on separations of $0.0185$km/s) samples, presuming that these velocity cuts represent a rough ordering in the binaries' age and metallicity. Through stringent cuts on astrometric precision, we can obtain pure binary samples with thousands of binaries in each sample. For all three populations, the distribution of binary separations extends smoothly to 1pc, displaying neither strong truncation nor bimodality. Fitting a smoothly-broken power law for the separation distribution, we find that its slope at separations $s=10^{2.5-4}$AU is the same for all sub-populations, $p(s)\propto s^γ$, with $γ\sim-1.54$. However, the logarithmic slope of $p(s)$ steepens at $s \gtrsim 10^4$AU. We find some evidences that the degree of steepening increases with the binaries' age, with a slope-change of only $Δγ\sim0.5$ for disk-like stars, but $Δγ>1$ for halo-like stars. This trend is contrary to what might be expected if steepening at wide separations were due to gravitational perturbations by molecular clouds or stars, which would preferentially disrupt disk binaries. If we were to interpret steepening at $s\gtrsim 10^4$AU as a consequence of disruption by massive halo objects, we would have to invoke a MACHO population inconsistent with other constraints. As a more plausible alternative, we propose a simple model to predict the separation distribution of wide binaries formed in dissolving star clusters. This model generically predicts $γ\sim-1.5$ as observed, with steepening at larger separations due to the finite size of binaries' birth clusters.

description: Option values may be an important component of non-use values when development options for environmental assets are considered. These are values that the community might hold for maintaining options to make future choices about allocating resources. However, option values are very difficult to define, at both theoretical and practical levels, and there has been a retreat over the past decade to the more inclusive concept of option prices. In the present paper, estimates of option values are reported for retaining unallocated water in reserve rather than using it for current development. The use of option values rather than option prices is justified on the basis that the focus is on nonuse values, and demand and supply uncertainties have been minimised. These values have been assessed through a series of nine choice modelling surveys that have been conducted over a 3-year period in the Fitzroy River Basin in central Queensland. The results are then extrapolated to the case study areas within the basin to assess whether unallocated water should be held in reserve or used for development.

description: We present a microscopic theory of zero-temperature order parameter and pseudospin stiffness reduction due to quantum fluctuations in the ground state of double-layer quantum Hall ferromagnets. Collective excitations in this systems are properly described only when interactions in both direct and exchange particle-hole channels are included. We employ a functional integral approach which is able to account for both, and comment on its relation to diagrammatic perturbation theory. We also discuss its relation to Gaussian fluctuation approximations based on Hubbard-Stratonovich-transformation representations of interactions in ferromagnets and superconductors. We derive remarkably simple analytical expressions for the correlation energy, renormalized order parameter and renormalized pseudospin stiffness.

description: Structural identifiability is a property of a differential model with parameters that allows for the parameters to be determined from the model equations in the absence of noise. The method of input-output equations is one method for verifying structural identifiability. This method stands out in its importance because the additional insights it provides can be used to analyze and improve models. However, its complete theoretical grounds and applicability are still to be established. A subtlety and key for this method to work correctly is knowing whether the coefficients of these equations are identifiable. In this paper, to address this, we prove identifiability of the coefficients of input-output equations for types of differential models that often appear in practice, such as linear models with one output and linear compartment models in which, from each compartment, one can reach either a leak or an input. This shows that checking identifiability via input-output equations for these models is legitimate and, as we prove, that the field of identifiable functions is generated by the coefficients of the input-output equations. Finally, we exploit a connection between input-output equations and the transfer function matrix to show that, for a linear compartment model with an input and strongly connected graph, the field of all identifiable functions is generated by the coefficients of the transfer function matrix even if the initial conditions are generic.

description: Abstract: The microbial community in the gut is influenced by environmental factors, especially diet, which can moderate host behaviour through the microbiome-gut-brain axis. However, the ecological relevance of microbiome-mediated behavioural plasticity in wild animals is unknown. We presented wild-caught great tits (Parus major) with a problem-solving task and showed that performance was weakly associated with variation in the gut microbiome. We then manipulated the gut microbiome by feeding birds one of two diets that differed in their relative levels of fat, protein and fibre content: an insect diet (low content), or a seed diet (high content). Microbial communities were less diverse among individuals given the insect compared to those on the seed diet. Individuals were less likely to problem-solve after being given the insect diet, and the same microbiota metrics that were altered as a consequence of diet were also those that correlated with variation in problem solving performance. Although the effect on problem-solving behaviour could have been caused by motivational or nutritional differences between our treatments, our results nevertheless raise the possibility that dietary induced changes in the gut microbiota could be an important mechanism underlying individual behavioural plasticity in wild populations.
Shear and magnification angular power spectra and higher-order moments from weak gravitational lensing

Year: 2002

description: We present new results on the gravitational lensing shear and magnification power spectra obtained from numerical simulations of a flat cosmology with a cosmological constant. These results are of considerable interest since both the shear and the magnification are observables. We find that the power spectrum in the convergence behaves as expected, but the magnification develops a shot-noise spectrum due to the effects of discrete, massive clusters and symptomatic of moderate lensing beyond the weak-lensing regime. We find that this behaviour can be suppressed by "clipping" of the largest projected clusters. Our results are compared with predictions from a Halo Model-inspired functional fit for the non-linear evolution of the matter field and show excellent agreement. We also study the higher-order moments of the convergence field and find a new scaling relationship with redshift. In particular, the statistic $S_3$ is found to vary as $z_s^{-2.00\pm 0.08}$ (where $z_s$ is the source redshift) for the cosmology studied, which makes corrections for different median redshifts in different observational surveys particularly simple to apply.

description: Abstract: Surprisingly few attempts have been made to quantify the simultaneous contribution of well-established risk factors to CVD mortality differences between countries. We aimed to develop and critically appraise an approach to doing so, applying it to the substantial CVD mortality gap between Russia and Norway using survey data in three cities and mortality risks from the Emerging Risk Factor Collaboration. We estimated the absolute and relative differences in CVD mortality at ages 40–69 years between countries attributable to the risk factors, under the counterfactual that the age- and sex-specific risk factor profile in Russia was as in Norway, and vice-versa. Under the counterfactual that Russia had the Norwegian risk factor profile, the absolute age-standardized CVD mortality gap would decline by 33.3% (95% CI 25.1–40.1) among men and 22.1% (10.4–31.3) among women. In relative terms, the mortality rate ratio (Russia/Norway) would decline from 9–10 to 7–8. Under the counterfactual that Norway had the Russian risk factor profile, the mortality gap reduced less. Well-established CVD risk factors account for a third of the male and around a quarter of the female CVD mortality gap between Russia and Norway. However, these estimates are based on widely held epidemiological assumptions that deserve further scrutiny.

description: We study the steady state properties of a 2D granular mixture in the presence of energy driving by employing simple analytical estimates and Direct Simulation Monte Carlo. We adopt two different driving mechanisms: a) a homogeneous heat bath with friction and b) a vibrating boundary (thermal or harmonic) in the presence of gravity. The main findings are: the appearance of two different granular temperatures, one for each species; the existence of overpopulated tails in the velocity distribution functions and of non trivial spatial correlations indicating the spontaneous formation of cluster aggregates. In the case of a fluid subject to gravity and to a vibrating boundary, both densities and temperatures display non uniform profiles along the direction normal to the wall, in particular the temperature profiles are different for the two species while the temperature ratio is almost constant with the height. Finally, we obtained the velocity distributions at different heights and verified the non gaussianity of the resulting distributions.

description: Abstract: The major human pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis is rarely reported to cause disease in other animals. Cases in livestock are thought to occur through contact with infected handlers, but previous studies evaluating putative livestock-human transmission used typing techniques with limited resolution. Here, we undertook cross-sectional surveillance for tuberculosis in 271 livestock handlers and 167 cattle on three farms in Chennai, India and defined the relatedness of cultured isolates using whole genome sequencing. Humans and livestock were screened for active mycobacterial infection, and opportunistic post-mortem examination was performed on comparative intradermal test-positive cattle that died. Four cattle and 6 handlers on two farms were culture-positive for M. tuberculosis; M. bovis was not isolated. All 10 isolates (one from each case) belonged to Lineage 1. Pairwise genome comparisons of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) differences ranged from 1 to 600 SNPs, but 3 isolate pairs were less than 5 SNPs different. Two pairs were from handlers and the third pair were from two cattle on the same farm. The minimum pairwise SNP difference between a cattle and human isolate was >250 SNPs. Our study confirms the presence of M. tuberculosis infection in cattle in India, sequencing of which characterised relatedness between human and cattle-derived isolates.

description: We theoretically show that the Kitaev interaction generates a novel class of spin texture in the excitation spectrum of the antiferromagnetic insulator found in the Kitaev-Heisenberg-$Γ$ model. In conducting electronic systems, there is a series of vortex type of spin texture along the Fermi surface induced by Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling. Such spin textures are rarely found in magnetic insulators, since there had been no systematic ways to control the kinetics of its quasi-particle called magnon using a magnetic field or spacially asymmetric exchange couplings. Here, we propose a general framework to explore such spin textures in arbitrary insulating antiferromagnets. We introduce an analytical method to transform any complicated Hamiltonian to the simple representation based on pseudo-spin degrees of freedom. The direction of the pseudo-spin on a Bloch sphere describes the degree of contributions from the two magnetic sublattices to the spin moment carried by the magnon. The momentum dependent fictitious "Zeeman field" determines the direction of the pseudo-spin and thus becomes the control parameter of the spin texture, which is explicitly described by the original model parameters. The framework enabled us to clarify the uncovered aspect of the Kitaev interaction, and further provides a tool to easily design or explore materials with intriguing magnetic properties. Since these spin textures can be a source of a pure spin current, the Kitaev materials $A_{2}$PrO$_{3}$ ($A$ =Li, Na) shall become a potential platform of power-saving spintronics devices.

description: Increasing concerns about a healthy diet, food safety and support for the local economy provide new opportunities for farmers to increase their farm income by locally selling their farm products. The major challenge for farmers making local sales is to predict consumer preferences correctly and provide goods to the market accordingly. By analyzing results from a consumer survey conducted in the Midwest, the current study determines the consumer preferences for domestic artisan cheese compared with processed cheese and imported French cheese compared with U.S. artisan cheese. The results of the econometric analysis show that consumer preferences vary between domestic and imported cheese. The results also show that experience attributes are more influential than search and credence attributes on consumers’ willingness to pay a price premium for a food item.

description: The dynamical evolution of a quantum register of arbitrary length coupled to an environment of arbitrary coherence length is predicted within a relevant model of decoherence. The results are reported for quantum bits (qubits) coupling individually to different environments (`independent decoherence') and qubits interacting collectively with the same reservoir (`collective decoherence'). In both cases, explicit decoherence functions are derived for any number of qubits. The decay of the coherences of the register is shown to strongly depend on the input states: we show that this sensitivity is a characteristic of $both$ types of coupling (collective and independent) and not only of the collective coupling, as has been reported previously. A non-trivial behaviour ("recoherence") is found in the decay of the off-diagonal elements of the reduced density matrix in the specific situation of independent decoherence. Our results lead to the identification of decoherence-free states in the collective decoherence limit. These states belong to subspaces of the system's Hilbert space that do not get entangled with the environment, making them ideal elements for the engineering of ``noiseless'' quantum codes. We also discuss the relations between decoherence of the quantum register and computational complexity based on the new dynamical results obtained for the register density matrix.

description: Abstract: Compared to nanomaterials exposing nonpolar facets, polar-faceted nanocrystals often exhibit unexpected and interesting properties. The electrostatic instability arising from the intrinsic dipole moments of polar facets, however, leads to different surface configurations in many cases, making it challenging to extract detailed structural information and develop structure-property relations. The widely used electron microscopy techniques are limited because the volumes sampled may not be representative, and they provide little chemical bonding information with low contrast of light elements. With ceria nanocubes exposing (100) facets as an example, here we show that the polar surface structure of oxide nanocrystals can be investigated by applying 17O and 1H solid-state NMR spectroscopy and dynamic nuclear polarization, combined with DFT calculations. Both CeO4-termination reconstructions and hydroxyls are present for surface polarity compensation and their concentrations can be quantified. These results open up new possibilities for investigating the structure and properties of oxide nanostructures with polar facets.

description: Waveguiding structures made of anisotropic media support bound states in the continuum (BICs) that arise when the radiation channel of otherwise semi-leaky modes is suppressed. Hitherto, only structures with optical axes aligned in symmetric orientations inside the waveguide plane, where BICs appear as lines in the momentum-frequency dispersion diagram, have been considered. Here we address settings where such symmetry is broken and unveil a number of fundamental new features. Weak and strong symmetry-breaking regimes are identified, corresponding to azimuthal and polar optical axes orientation asymmetries, respectively. The azimuthal symmetry-breaking is found to still preserve the existence loci of BICs in the momentum-frequency dispersion diagram as lines. However, all possible BICs become interferometric, while the polarization separable states that occur in symmetric settings cease to exist. The polar symmetry-breaking has stronger effects and transforms the BICs' existence loci from lines to points, which correspond to full-vector states that exist at discrete values of the optical axis orientation for a given wavelength. Such transformation results in fundamental changes in the topological properties of the radiated field around the BICs.

description: Abstract: Background: Malaria disease commences when blood-stage parasites, called merozoites, invade human erythrocytes. Whilst the process of invasion is traditionally seen as being entirely merozoite-driven, emerging data suggests erythrocyte biophysical properties markedly influence invasion. Cholesterol is a major determinant of cell membrane biophysical properties demanding its interrogation as a potential mediator of resistance to merozoite invasion of the erythrocyte. Methods: Biophysical measurements of erythrocyte deformability by flicker spectroscopy were used to assess changes in erythrocyte bending modulus on forced integration of cholesterol and how these artificial changes affect invasion by human Plasmodium falciparum merozoites. To validate these observations in a natural context, either murine Plasmodium berghei or human Plasmodium falciparum merozoites were tested for their ability to invade erythrocytes from a hypercholesterolaemic mouse model or human clinical erythrocyte samples deriving from patients with a range of serum cholesterol concentrations, respectively. Results: Erythrocyte bending modulus (a measure of deformability) was shown to be markedly affected by artificial modulation of cholesterol content and negatively correlated with merozoite invasion efficiency. In an in vitro infection context, however, erythrocytes taken from hypercholesterolaemic mice or from human clinical samples with varying serum cholesterol levels showed little difference in their susceptibility to merozoite invasion. Explaining this, membrane cholesterol levels in both mouse and human hypercholesterolaemia erythrocytes were subsequently found to be no different from matched normal serum controls. Conclusions: Based on these observations, serum cholesterol does not appear to impact on erythrocyte susceptibility to merozoite entry. Indeed, no relationship between serum cholesterol and cholesterol content of the erythrocyte is apparent. This work, nonetheless, suggests that native polymorphisms which do affect membrane lipid composition would be expected to affect parasite entry. This supports investigation of erythrocyte biophysical properties in endemic settings, which may yet identify naturally protective lipid-related polymorphisms.
