Input: Consider Input: Neisseria meningitidis are common colonizers of the human nasopharynx. In some circumstances, N. meningitidis becomes an opportunistic pathogen that invades tissues and causes meningitis. While a vaccine against a number of serogroups has been in effective use for many years, a vaccine against N. meningitidis group B has not yet been universally adopted. Bacterial heat shock protein complex (HSPC) vaccines comprise bacterial HSPs, purified with their chaperoned protein cargo. HSPC vaccines use the intrinsic adjuvant activity of their HSP, thought to act via Toll-like receptors (TLR), to induce an immune response against their cargo antigens. This study evaluated HSPC vaccines from N. meningitidis and the closely related commensal N. lactamica.', 'The protein composition of N. lactamica and N. meningitidis HSPCs were similar. Using human HEK293 cells we found that both HSPCs can induce an innate immune response via activation of TLR2. However, stimulation of TLR2 or TLR4 deficient murine splenocytes revealed that HSPCs can activate an innate immune response via multiple receptors. Vaccination of wildtype mice with the Neisseria HSPC induced a strong antibody response and a Th1-restricted T helper response. However, vaccination of mice deficient in the major TLR adaptor protein, MyD88, revealed that while the Th1 response to Neisseria HSPC requires MyD88, these vaccines unexpectedly induced an antigen-specific antibody response via a MyD88-independent mechanism.

Output: Do heat shock protein complex vaccines induce antibodies against Neisseria meningitidis via a MyD88-independent mechanism?


Input: Consider Input: To investigate the influence of metabolic syndrome on prostate-specific antigen levels by considering prostate volume and plasma volume.', 'We retrospectively analyzed 4111 men who underwent routine check-ups including prostate-specific antigen and transrectal ultrasonography. The definition of metabolic syndrome was based on the modified Adult Treatment Panel III criteria. Prostate-specific antigen mass density (prostate-specific antigen × plasma volume / prostate volume) was calculated for adjusting plasma volume and prostate volume. We compared prostate-specific antigen and prostate-specific antigen mass density levels of participants with metabolic syndrome (metabolic syndrome group, n = 1242) and without metabolic syndrome (non-prostate-specific antigen metabolic syndrome group, n = 2869). To evaluate the impact of metabolic syndrome on prostate-specific antigen, linear regression analysis for the natural logarithm of prostate-specific antigen was used.', 'Patients in the metabolic syndrome group had significantly older age (P < 0.001), larger prostate volume (P < 0.001), higher plasma volume (P < 0.001) and lower mean serum prostate-specific antigen (non-metabolic syndrome group vs metabolic syndrome group; 1.22 ± 0.91 vs 1.15 ± 0.76 ng/mL, P = 0.006). Prostate-specific antigen mass density in the metabolic syndrome group was still significantly lower than that in the metabolic syndrome group (0.124 ± 0.084 vs 0.115 ± 0.071 μg/mL, P = 0.001). After adjusting for age, prostate volume and plasma volume using linear regression model, the presence of metabolic syndrome was a significant independent factor for lower prostate-specific antigen (prostate-specific antigen decrease by 4.1%, P = 0.046).

Output: Is prostate-specific antigen lowering effect of metabolic syndrome influenced by prostate volume?


Input: Consider Input: MicroRNAs play an important role in cardiac remodeling. MicroRNA 499 (miR499) is highly enriched in cardiomyocytes and targets the gene for Calcineurin A (CnA), which is associated with mitochondrial fission and apoptosis. The mechanism regulating miR499 in stretched cardiomyocytes and in volume overloaded heart is unclear. We sought to investigate the mechanism regulating miR499 and CnA in stretched cardiomyocytes and in volume overload-induced heart failure.', 'Rat cardiomyocytes grown on a flexible membrane base were stretched via vacuum to 20% of maximum elongation at 60 cycles/min. An in vivo model of volume overload with aorta-caval shunt in adult rats was used to study miR499 expression. Mechanical stretch downregulated miR499 expression, and enhanced the expression of CnA protein and mRNA after 12 hours of stretch. Expression of CnA and calcineurin activity was suppressed with miR499 overexpression; whereas, expression of dephosphorylated dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) was suppressed with miR499 overexpression and CnA siRNA. Adding p53 siRNA reversed the downregulation of miR499 when stretched. A gel shift assay and promoter-activity assay demonstrated that stretch increased p53 DNA binding activity but decreased miR499 promoter activity. When the miR499 promoter p53-binding site was mutated, the inhibition of miR499 promoter activity with stretch was reversed. The in vivo aorta-caval shunt also showed downregulated myocardial miR499 and overexpression of miR499 suppressed CnA and cellular apoptosis.


Output: Does mechanical Stretch inhibit MicroRNA499 via p53 to Regulate Calcineurin-A Expression in Rat Cardiomyocytes?
