    Abstract: A multifunctional, Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, motile by flagella, short-rod shaped bacteria, designated strain RG36 T was isolated from roots of marigold plant ( Tagetes patula ) sampled at Dongguk University, Republic of Korea. A 16S rRNA sequences indicated that the closest phylogenetic neighbors were Paraburkholderia acidiphila 7Q-K02 T (99.0%) and Paraburkholderia sacchari IPT101 T (98.9%) of the family Burkholderiaceae. The draft genome size was 8.52 Mb (63.7% GC). The genome contained 7,381 coding sequences. Digital DNA–DNA hybridization (dDDH) and average nucleotide identity (ANI) values of strain RG36 T with its most closely related species were only 83.1–88.7 and 27.6–36.7%, respectively. Strain RG36 T contained Q-8 as the major respiratory quinone and its main fatty acids ( & gt;10%) were C 16:0 , C 17:0 cyclo, C 19:0 cyclo ω8c, and summed feature 8 (comprising C 18:1 ω7c and/or C 18:1 ω6c). Strain RG36 T accumulates polyhydroxybutyrates (PHB) and exhibits multiple plant growth-promoting properties including production of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), siderophores, protease, phosphate solubilization, and harboring gene clusters for its multifunctional properties. A pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of PGPR on the growth of Solanum lycopersicum L. (Tomato). Result also confirmed the ability of strain RG36 T to promote tomato plant growth, especially it increases the yield of tomatoes. Structural assessment of the bioplastic by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and GC-MS spectroscopy, which confirmed the structure of the polymer as PHB. Our study revealed the potential of strain RG36 T to promote the growth of tomato plant and fruit yield by stimulating the various phytohormones, which could be use as bio-fertilizers to reduce the use of chemical fertilizers and promotes sustainable agricultural production. The phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic data, and genome analysis showed that strain RG36 T represents a novel species of the genus Paraburkholderia , for which the name Paraburkholderia tagetis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is RG36 T (=KACC 22685 T = TBRC 15696 T ).

    Abstract: Venipuncture is one of the most frequent and frightening medical procedures for children. This randomized clinical trial aimed to evaluate whether pre-procedural immersive virtual reality (VR) education could decrease pain and anxiety during venipuncture procedure of children. Methods Sixty children scheduled for venipuncture at the phlebotomy unit were randomized into either the control or VR group. Before the procedure, children of the control group received conventional simple verbal instructions, whereas those of the VR group experienced a 4-min VR education regarding venipuncture. The primary outcome was the pain and anxiety of pediatric patients assessed with the children’s hospital of eastern ontario pain scale. Secondary outcomes were parental satisfaction, venipuncture time, repeated procedure and procedural difficulty rated by phlebotomists. Results The pain and anxiety score during the procedure was significantly lower in the VR group than in the control group (median [IQR], 6.0 [5.0–7.0] vs. 8.0 [6.0–9.8], P = 0.001). Parental satisfaction about the procedural process were higher in the VR group than in the control group ( P = 0.029), and the degree of procedural difficulty was lower in the VR group, compared to the control group ( P = 0.026). Conclusion The preprocedural VR education significantly reduced pain and anxiety of children and decreased the procedural difficulty of phlebotomists during venipuncture procedure.

    Abstract: Transgenic mice are a useful tool for exploring various aspects of gene function. A key element of this approach is the targeted overexpression of specific genes in cells or tissues. Herein, we report for the first time, the generation and characterization of conditional transgenic (cTg) mice for lipocalin-2 (LCN2) expression. We generated the R26-LCN2-transgenic (LCN2-cTg) mice that carried a loxP-flanked STOP (neo) cassette, Lcn2 cDNA, and a GFP sequence. When bred with Tg mice expressing Cre recombinase under the control of various tissues or cell-specific promoters, Cre-mediated recombination deletes the STOP cassette and allows the expression of LCN2 and GFP. In this study, we achieved the recombination of loxP-flanked LCN2 in hippocampal astrocytes of cTg mouse brain, using a targeted delivery of adeno-associated virus (AAVs) bearing Cre recombinase under the control of a GFAP promoter (AAVs-GFAP-mCherry-Cre). These mice with localized LCN2 overexpression in astrocytes of the hippocampus developed neuroinflammation with enhanced glial activation and increased mRNA and protein levels of proinflammatory cytokines. Furthermore, mice showed impairment in cognitive functions as a typical symptom of hippocampal inflammation. Taken together, our study demonstrates the usefulness of LCN2-cTg mice in targeting specific cells at various organs for conditional LCN2 expression and for subsequent investigation of the functional role of cell-type-specific LCN2 within these sites. Moreover, the LCN2-cTg mice with targeted expression of LCN2 in hippocampal astrocytes are a new in vivo model of neuroinflammation.
