Objective Epilepsy and intellectual/developmental disabilities (ID/DD) have a high rate of co-occurrence. Here, we investigated gene mutations in Chinese children with unexplained epilepsy ID/DD. Methods We used targeted next-generation sequencing to detect within 300 genes related ID/DD 253 A series filtering criteria was find the possible pathogenic variations. Validation parental origin analyses were performed by Sanger sequencing. reviewed phenotypes patients each mutated gene. Results...

The poor survival of ovarian cancer patients is linked to their high likelihood relapse. In spite full apparent macroscopic clearance, tumor recurrences arise from cells that are resistant primary chemotherapy in the form minimal residual disease (MRD). MRD exhibits distinct molecular drivers bulk and therefore necessitates alternative therapeutic strategies. However, there a lack 3D models faithfully recapitulate ex vivo for therapy development. This study constructs microfluidics-based...

Abstract We identified a de novo missense mutation, P302L, in the γ-aminobutyric acid type A (GABA ) receptor γ2 subunit gene GABRG2 patient with Dravet syndrome using targeted next-generation sequencing. The mutation was cytoplasmic portion of transmembrane segment M2 that faces pore lumen. GABA α1 and β3 subunits were coexpressed wild-type (wt) γ2L or mutant γ2L(P302L) HEK 293T cells cultured mouse cortical neurons. measured currents whole-cell single-channel patch clamp techniques,...

Abstract GABA A receptors are brain inhibitory chloride ion channels. Here we show functional analyses and structural simulations for three de novo missense mutations in the receptor β3 subunit gene ( GABRB3 ) identified patients with early-onset epileptic encephalopathy (EOEE) profound developmental delay. We sought to obtain insights into molecular mechanisms that might link defects biophysics biogenesis EOEE. The mutant residues part of conserved domains such as Cys-loop (L170R) M2-M3...

The cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (CYP450) are the largest enzyme family in plant metabolism and widely involved biosynthesis of primary secondary metabolites. Foxtail millet (Setaria italica (L.) P. Beauv) can respond to abiotic stress through a highly complex polygene regulatory network, which SiCYP450 is also involved. Although CYP450 superfamily has been systematically studied few species, research on foxtail not completed. In this study, three hundred thirty-one genes were identified...

In recognition of the misuse risks fentanyl, there is an urgent need to develop a useful and rapid analytical method detect monitor opioid drug. The surface-enhanced shifted excitation Raman difference spectroscopy (SE-SERDS) has been demonstrated suppress background interference enhance signals. this study, SE-SERDS was used for trace detection fentanyl in beverages. To prepare simulated illegal drug–beverages, fentanyls were dissolved into distilled water or Mizone as series test samples....

Caveolae play crucial roles in intracellular membrane trafficking and mechanosensation. In this study, we report that synaptotagmin-11 (Syt11), a synaptotagmin isoform associated with Parkinson's disease schizophrenia, regulates both caveolae-mediated endocytosis the caveolar response to mechanical stimuli astrocytes. Syt11-knockout (KO) accelerated endocytosis. Interestingly, structures on cell surface were markedly fewer absence of Syt11. Caveolar disassembly hypoosmotic astrocyte swelling...
