Herein, the high-pressure/high-temperature synthesis (11 GPa, 650 °C) of Tb3B10O17(OH)5 in a modified Walker-type multianvil device is presented. The structure of this rare-earth borate was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods and was found to crystallize orthorhombically in the space group Pmn21 (no. 31) with the unit cell parameters a = 16.2527(4), b = 4.4373(1), and c = 8.8174(2) Å. The new compound was further characterized using infrared spectroscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, second harmonic generation (SHG) measurements, and temperature-dependent X-ray powder diffraction. Tb3B10O17(OH)5 decomposes to β-Tb(BO2)3 at temperatures higher than 460 °C. With increasing temperatures, the formation of μ-TbBO3 was observed, which transforms to π-TbBO3 upon cooling.
Janthinobacteria commonly form biofilms on eukaryotic hosts and are known to synthesize antibacterial and antifungal compounds. Janthinobacterium sp. HH01 was recently isolated from an aquatic environment and its genome sequence was established. The genome consists of a single chromosome and reveals a size of 7.10 Mb, being the largest janthinobacterial genome so far known. Approximately 80% of the 5,980 coding sequences (CDSs) present in the HH01 genome could be assigned putative functions. The genome encodes a wealth of secretory functions and several large clusters for polyketide biosynthesis. HH01 also encodes a remarkable number of proteins involved in resistance to drugs or heavy metals. Interestingly, the genome of HH01 apparently lacks the N-acylhomoserine lactone (AHL)-dependent signaling system and the AI-2-dependent quorum sensing regulatory circuit. Instead it encodes a homologue of the Legionella- and Vibrio-like autoinducer (lqsA/cqsA) synthase gene which we designated jqsA. The jqsA gene is linked to a cognate sensor kinase (jqsS) which is flanked by the response regulator jqsR. Here we show that a jqsA deletion has strong impact on the violacein biosynthesis in Janthinobacterium sp. HH01 and that a jqsA deletion mutant can be functionally complemented with the V. cholerae cqsA and the L. pneumophila lqsA genes.
During winter 2015/2016, the Arctic stratosphere was characterized by extraordinarily low temperatures in connection with a very strong polar vortex and with the occurrence of extensive polar stratospheric clouds. From mid-December 2015 until mid-March 2016, the German research aircraft HALO (High Altitude and Long-Range Research Aircraft) was deployed to probe the lowermost stratosphere in the Arctic region within the POLSTRACC (Polar Stratosphere in a Changing Climate) mission. More than 20 flights have been conducted out of Kiruna, Sweden, and Oberpfaffenhofen, Germany, covering the whole winter period. Besides total reactive nitrogen (NOy), observations of nitrous oxide, nitric acid, ozone, and water were used for this study. Total reactive nitrogen and its partitioning between the gas and particle phases are key parameters for understanding processes controlling the ozone budget in the polar winter stratosphere. The vertical redistribution of total reactive nitrogen was evaluated by using tracer–tracer correlations (NOy–N2O and NOy–O3). The trace gases are well correlated as long as the NOy distribution is controlled by its gas-phase production from N2O. Deviations of the observed NOy from this correlation indicate the influence of heterogeneous processes. In early winter no such deviations have been observed. In January, however, air masses with extensive nitrification were encountered at altitudes between 12 and 15 km. The excess NOy amounted to about 6 ppb. During several flights, along with gas-phase nitrification, indications for extensive occurrence of nitric acid containing particles at flight altitude were found. These observations support the assumption of sedimentation and subsequent evaporation of nitric acid-containing particles, leading to redistribution of total reactive nitrogen at lower altitudes. Remnants of nitrified air masses have been observed until mid-March. Between the end of February and mid-March, denitrified air masses have also been observed in connection with high potential temperatures. This indicates the downward transport of air masses that have been denitrified during the earlier winter phase. Using tracer–tracer correlations, missing total reactive nitrogen was estimated to amount to 6 ppb. Further, indications of transport and mixing of these processed air masses outside the vortex have been found, contributing to the chemical budget of the winter lowermost stratosphere. Observations within POLSTRACC, at the bottom of the vortex, reflect heterogeneous processes from the overlying Arctic winter stratosphere. The comparison of the observations with CLaMS model simulations confirm and complete the picture arising from the present measurements. The simulations confirm that the ensemble of all observations is representative of the vortex-wide vertical NOy redistribution.
Das erstmals Ende 2002 im Süden Chinas aufgetretene schwere akute respiratorische Syndrom (SARS) führte bis zum August 2003 zu insgesamt über 8000 Erkrankungen und über 700 Todesfällen. Eine von der Weltgesundheitsorganisation (WHO) ins Leben gerufene Kooperation verschiedener Laboratorien weltweit ermöglichte innerhalb von nur vier Wochen die Identifizierung des kausalen Agens, eines bislang unbekannten Coronavirus (vorläufig bezeichnet als SARS-assoziiertes Coronavirus oder SARS-CoV), welches die Koch’schen Postulate erfüllt. Der Erreger lässt sich (unter Hochsicherheitsbedingungen) gut in Zellkulturen vermehren, was weitere Studien zur Stabilität sowie die Entwicklung von antiviral wirksamen Substanzen und Impfstoffen erleichtert.
Obwohl schon rasch diagnostische Labortests, insbesondere zum Nachweis der viralen Nukleinsäure und virusspezifischer Antikörper, zur Verfügung standen, basiert die Falldefinition von SARS weiterhin auf klinisch-epidemiologischen Kriterien. In Hinblick auf die Gefahr eines (saisonalen) Wiederauftretens der Infektion müssen die verfügbaren Labormethoden dringend überprüft und weiter verbessert werden.
SARS ist ein gutes Beispiel dafür, wie schnell sich eine Infektionskrankheit über den internationalen Reiseverkehr ausbreiten kann, aber auch dafür, wie wichtig in einem solchen Falle eine gut koordinierte internationale Kooperation ist; durch Einsatz neuester, aber auch bewährter konventioneller Labormethoden und ständigen Austausch aktueller (Zwischen-)Ergebnisse sowie von Patientenproben und Reagenzien führte eine bisher einmalige Zusammenarbeit schnell zu einem Durchbruch. Dies lässt auf ähnliche Fortschritte beim Kampf gegen weitere neuartige Infektionserreger hoffen.
Background and Objectives: Proteins of the coagulation system contribute to autoimmune inflammation in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). On blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption, fibrinogen enters the CNS and is rapidly converted to fibrin, unfolding pleiotropic autoimmune mechanisms. Fibrin accumulation leads to subsequent proteolytic degradation that results in D-dimer generation. The primary objective of this study was to determine intrathecal levels of D-dimer in CSF as a measure of intrathecal coagulation cascade activation and to evaluate its diagnostic utility in patients with MS in contrast to healthy subjects. Key secondary objectives included analysis of CSF D-dimer in differential diagnoses of MS and its relation to routine clinical markers of disease activity.
Methods: Patients admitted for the assessment of suspected MS were prospectively recruited from October 2017 to December 2020. Blood plasma and citrated CSF samples were analyzed using a highly sensitive luminescent oxygen channeling immunoassay. Intrathecal generation of D-dimer was analyzed by adjusting for CSF/serum albumin (Qalb) and CSF/plasma D-dimer quotients (QD-dimer), and corresponding CSF fibrinogen levels were determined. Final diagnoses after full evaluation and clinical data were recorded.
Results: Of 187 patients, 113 patients received a diagnosis of MS or clinically/radiologically isolated syndrome. We found increased intrathecal CSF D-dimer generation levels (QD-dimer/Qalb-index) for patients with relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS; n = 71, median 4.7, interquartile range [IQR] 2.5–8.0) when compared with those for disease controls (n = 22, median 2.6, IQR 2.1–4.8, p = 0.031). Absolute CSF D-dimer values correlated with CSF fibrinogen levels (r = 0.463; p < 0 .001) and CSF leukocytes (r = 0.273; p = 0.003) and were elevated in MS patients with contrast enhancement (CE) compared with MS patients without CE on MRI (n = 48, median 6 ng/mL, and IQR 3–15.25 vs n = 41, median 4 ng/mL, and IQR 2–7; p = 0.026). Exploratory subgroup analyses indicated a correlation of intrathecal inflammatory activity and CSF D-dimer levels.
Discussion: D-dimer in CSF can be reliably determined and correlates with markers of CNS inflammation and CSF fibrinogen levels. Adjusted for BBB dysfunction, CSF D-dimer may allow the identification of intrathecal coagulation cascade activation in patients with MS.
Classification of Evidence: This study provides Class I evidence that CSF D-dimer levels are elevated in patients with RRMS.
Bipolar disorder (BD) is a genetically complex mental illness characterized by severe oscillations of mood and behavior. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified several risk loci that together account for a small portion of the heritability. To identify additional risk loci, we performed a two-stage meta-analysis of >9 million genetic variants in 9,784 bipolar disorder patients and 30,471 controls, the largest GWAS of BD to date. In this study, to increase power we used ~2,000 lithium-treated cases with a long-term diagnosis of BD from the Consortium on Lithium Genetics, excess controls, and analytic methods optimized for markers on the Xchromosome. In addition to four known loci, results revealed genome-wide significant associations at two novel loci: an intergenic region on 9p21.3 (rs12553324, p = 5.87×10-9; odds ratio = 1.12) and markers within ERBB2 (rs2517959, p = 4.53×10-9; odds ratio = 1.13). No significant X-chromosome associations were detected and X-linked markers explained very little BD heritability. The results add to a growing list of common autosomal variants involved in BD and illustrate the power of comparing well-characterized cases to an excess of controls in GWAS.
Ependymomas encompass a heterogeneous group of central nervous system (CNS) neoplasms that occur along the entire neuroaxis. In recent years, extensive (epi-)genomic profiling efforts have identified several molecular groups of ependymoma that are characterized by distinct molecular alterations and/or patterns. Based on unsupervised visualization of a large cohort of genome-wide DNA methylation data, we identified a highly distinct group of pediatric-type tumors (n = 40) forming a cluster separate from all established CNS tumor types, of which a high proportion were histopathologically diagnosed as ependymoma. RNA sequencing revealed recurrent fusions involving the pleomorphic adenoma gene-like 1 (PLAGL1) gene in 19 of 20 of the samples analyzed, with the most common fusion being EWSR1:PLAGL1 (n = 13). Five tumors showed a PLAGL1:FOXO1 fusion and one a PLAGL1:EP300 fusion. High transcript levels of PLAGL1 were noted in these tumors, with concurrent overexpression of the imprinted genes H19 and IGF2, which are regulated by PLAGL1. Histopathological review of cases with sufficient material (n = 16) demonstrated a broad morphological spectrum of tumors with predominant ependymoma-like features. Immunohistochemically, tumors were GFAP positive and OLIG2- and SOX10 negative. In 3/16 of the cases, a dot-like positivity for EMA was detected. All tumors in our series were located in the supratentorial compartment. Median age of the patients at the time of diagnosis was 6.2 years. Median progression-free survival was 35 months (for 11 patients with data available). In summary, our findings suggest the existence of a novel group of supratentorial neuroepithelial tumors that are characterized by recurrent PLAGL1 fusions and enriched for pediatric patients.
DGK and DZHK position paper on genome editing: basic science applications and future perspective
(2021)
For a long time, gene editing had been a scientific concept, which was limited to a few applications. With recent developments, following the discovery of TALEN zinc-finger endonucleases and in particular the CRISPR/Cas system, gene editing has become a technique applicable in most laboratories. The current gain- and loss-of function models in basic science are revolutionary as they allow unbiased screens of unprecedented depth and complexity and rapid development of transgenic animals. Modifications of CRISPR/Cas have been developed to precisely interrogate epigenetic regulation or to visualize DNA complexes. Moreover, gene editing as a clinical treatment option is rapidly developing with first trials on the way. This article reviews the most recent progress in the field, covering expert opinions gathered during joint conferences on genome editing of the German Cardiac Society (DGK) and the German Center for Cardiovascular Research (DZHK). Particularly focusing on the translational aspect and the combination of cellular and animal applications, the authors aim to provide direction for the development of the field and the most frequent applications with their problems.
