A CRISPR/Cas9-generated mutation in the zebrafish orthologue of PPP2R3B causes idiopathic scoliosis
Expression of PPP2R3B/ppp2r3b in human foetuses and zebrafish To begin to investigate the requirement for PR70 in vertebrates, we looked for expression of PPP2R3B in human foetuses. The orientation of tissue sections used is given in Supplementary Fig. 1. Using in situ hybridisation, we noted some locations of PPP2R3B expression that…
NOCICEPTRA2.0 – a comprehensive ncRNA atlas of human native and iPSC-derived sensory neurons
Abstract Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) play a critical role in regulating gene expression during development and in the pathogenesis of diseases. In particular, microRNAs have been extensively studied in the context of neurogenesis, the differentiation of pain sensing nociceptive neurons and the pathogenesis of pain disorder, however, little is known about…
Garden cress seeds ameliorated Aluminum-induced Alzheimers
Introduction Exposure of humans to aluminum has significantly increased worldwide. Potential sources of aluminum exposure include drinking water, food, medicines, vaccines, and aluminum cookware utensils. Aluminum bioaccumulation in the brain has been associated with neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative changes that might predispose to Alzheimer’s disease (AD).1 Subchronic administration of Al3+ to rats…

Study shows cutaneous touch neuronal cells to be critical for sexual receptiveness
In a recent study published in Cell, researchers studied the social relevance of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) Mrgprb4-lineage touch neurons in sexual touch and receptivity. Study: Touch neurons underlying dopaminergic pleasurable touch and sexual receptivity. Image Credit: Master1305/Shutterstock Background The sensation of a pleasurable touch is initiated by mechanical, electric…

Nociceptor neurons affect cancer immunosurveillance
Secondary use of biopsies as research specimens The ten melanoma samples used in this study were collected by Sanford Health and classified by a board-certified pathologist. Their secondary use as research specimens (fully de-identified formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) blocks) was approved under Sanford Health IRB protocol 640 (titled ‘Understanding and improving…
Frontiers | Hair Graying Regulators Beyond Hair Follicle
Introduction Hair graying is one of the representative signs of aging. It has been considered to be triggered by a decreased number of follicular melanocyte stem cells (MeSCs; Nishimura et al., 2005; Iida et al., 2020) or dysfunction of MeSCs such as decreased oxidation resistance capacity with aging (Shi et…
The role of ATXR6 expression in modulating genome stability and transposable element repression in Arabidopsis
Significance The plant-specific H3K27me1 methyltransferases ATXR5 and ATXR6 play integral roles connecting epigenetic silencing with genomic stability. However, how H3K27me1 relates to these processes is poorly understood. In this study, we performed a comprehensive transcriptome analysis of tissue- and ploidy-specific expression in a hypomorphic atxr5/6 mutant and revealed that the…

iPSCs and DRGs: stepping stones to new pain therapies
doi.org/10.1016/j.molmed.2021.11.005Get rights and content Highlights Voltage-gated sodium (NaV) channels are key drivers of pain in humans and contribute to neuronal excitability and have been regarded as opportune therapeutic targets. The limited success of developing pain therapies targeting NaV channels may reflect the limitations of preclinical screening systems, as heterologous cell…

Gene expression profiling of contralateral dorsal root gangl
Introduction Mirror-image pain (MIP) is a mysterious pain phenomenon which is accompanied with many clinical pain conditions.1 MIP develops from the healthy body region which is contralateral to the actual injured site.1–3 MIP is typically characterized by increased mechanical hypersensitivity on the uninjured mirror-image body side.4 It can be triggered…
