title: Supporting data for 'Neuroplasticity and DNA methylation-related mechanism of L-methionine in cognition '

description: Recent studies have shed light on the importance of the dynamic property of DNA methylation in memory formation and maintenance. Methionine is an essential component in one-carbon metabolism, which plays a pivotal role in gene-environment interaction. The disruption of the one-carbon metabolism is implicated in the pathophysiology of various neurodegenerative disorders, for instance age-related dementia and Alzheimer’s disease (AD), in which memory loss is manifested as the core symptom.<b></b><br>In this thesis, I systematically reviewed the neuroepigenetic alterations involved in the pathophysiology of AD seen in literature as an attempt to delineate potential molecular deficits contributing to cognitive impairment. The influence of altered DNA methylation in AD on components involved in neurochemical pathways on memory formation was then examined. I then showed that protracted L-methionine (MET) treatment rescued memory deficits and attenuated amyloid burden through restoring MeCP2-CREB-BDNF and CaN-Akt-GSK3β cascades in 5xFAD transgenic mice. Following the findings that MET effectively normalized certain DNA methylation machinery in AD animal model, I investigated the effect of neuromodulation techniques on certain DNA methylation mechanisms that depend on neuronal activity, and made the case for the said mechanisms as possible memory modulation targets. I then extended the effects of MET on AD identified in the previous chapter to aged animals as a combined treatment paradigm with prelimbic cortical deep brain stimulation (PrL DBS). I showed that while MET alone had no behavioral effect on aged animals, it potentiated the memory-enhancing effect of PrL DBS. MET was able to rescue the global DNA hypomethylation observed in aged animals, and induce expression of plasticity-related genes and proteins in a synergistic manner with PrL DBS. I then showed that inhibition of DNMT in the hippocampus specifically abolished the memory-enhancing effect of PrL DBS, established the integral role of DNMT in mediating the effect of PrL DBS on cognition. Lastly, I proposed the epigenetic regulations of <i>Bdnf</i> gene as the key to memory extinction and BDNF modulation as a potential target for alleviating depression and fear-related anxiety disorders. Overall, my thesis presents evidence demonstrating the important role of DNA methylation in memory disorders and MET as a viable therapeutic in AD and dementia.

title: Worker Cooperatives' Potential for Migrant Women's Self-Empowerment. Insights from a Case Study in New York City

description: Many migrant women in New York City face structural discrimination and administrative hurdles that complicate their access to safe and well-paid labor. Worker cooperatives have been shown to reduce the precarity and economic exclusion of marginalized groups. However, although much is known about worker cooperatives’ economic potential for improving workers’ lives, other social effects remain far less well explored. The present research contributes to exploring this gap by examining how joining a worker cooperative empowers migrant women in their everyday lives. We apply the concept of self-empowerment to several spheres of the everyday lives of migrant women. At an empirical level, the study focuses on migrant women who are members of nine cleaning- or care-worker cooperatives in New York City. The data were gathered using a participatory research approach and consist of interviews, participant observations, and a quantitative survey. The findings are that worker cooperatives have empowering effects on migrant women beyond the sphere of paid work. Although the additional unpaid workload as co-owners of cooperatives represents an extra burden for many migrant women, they now have better wages, more flexibility, and safer workplaces. Furthermore, they acquire a range of leadership skills, enlarge their social network beyond their ethnic communities, and earn increased esteem as co-owners of businesses. Through worker-ownership, migrant women thus increase their economic, cultural, social, and symbolic capital, which enables them to exercise more agency not only in their paid work but also in their families and leisure time.

title: Supplementary Data for The salmon louse genome: copepod features and parasitic adaptations.

description: This dataset contains supporting data for the manuscript: Skern-Mauritzen <em>et al. </em>The salmon louse genome: copepod features and parasitic adaptations. Copepods encompass a range of ecological roles from parasites to phytoplankton grazers linking primary producers to higher trophic levels. Despite these important roles, copepod genome assemblies are scarce. <em>Lepeophtheirus salmonis</em> is an economically and ecologically important ectoparasitic copepod found on salmonid fish. We present the 695.4 Mbp <em>L. salmonis</em> genome assembly containing ≈60% repetitive regions and 13081 annotated protein-coding genes. The genome comprises 14 autosomes and a ZZ-ZW sex chromosome system. Assembly assessment identified 92.4% of the expected arthropod genes. Transcriptomics supported annotation and indicated a marked shift in gene expression after host attachment, including down-regulation of genes related to circadian rhythm coinciding with abandoning diurnal migration. The genome shows evolutionary signatures including loss of genes needed for peroxisome biogenesis, presence of numerous FNII domains, and an incomplete heme homeostasis pathway suggesting heme proteins to be obtained from the host. Despite large capacity to develop resistance against chemical treatments <em>L. salmonis</em> exhibits low numbers of many genes involved in detoxification. Supplementary data is explained in detail and referenced in the manuscript and the file Supplementary Material 30062021 REVISED.pdf BUSCO-V5-results-species-comparison.tar.gz contains the raw output and results of all BUSCO V 5.0.0 runs on the genomes in Table 1 of the manuscript and Supplementary_Table_GenomeStats.xlsx GCA_000181255.2_ASM18125v2_genomic.fna.RepMasker.o ..., GCA_001005205.1_lsal_atl_canada_female_v1_genomic. ..., GCA_001005235.1_lsal_atl_canada_male_v1_genomic.fn ... and TableS4-1-LSalAtl2s.fasta.RepMasker.out.gz contain original output from RepeatMasker Lsalmonis-RepeatModeler-families.fa.gz and Lsalmonis-RepeatModeler-families.stk.gz contain all repeat families as original output from RepeatModeler
