    Abstract: Amyloid-beta 42 (Aβ42) and phosphorylated tau (pTau) levels in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) reflect core features of the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) more directly than clinical diagnosis. Initiated by the European Alzheimer & Dementia Biobank (EADB), the largest collaborative effort on genetics underlying CSF biomarkers was established, including 31 cohorts with a total of 13,116 individuals (discovery n  = 8074; replication n  = 5042 individuals). Besides the APOE locus, novel associations with two other well-established AD risk loci were observed; CR1 was shown a locus for Aβ42 and BIN1 for pTau. GMNC and C16orf95 were further identified as loci for pTau, of which the latter is novel. Clustering methods exploring the influence of all known AD risk loci on the CSF protein levels, revealed 4 biological categories suggesting multiple Aβ42 and pTau related biological pathways involved in the etiology of AD. In functional follow-up analyses, GMNC and C16orf95 both associated with lateral ventricular volume, implying an overlap in genetic etiology for tau levels and brain ventricular volume.

    Abstract: Warburg effect is a pivotal hallmark of cancers and appears prevalently in renal cell carcinoma (RCC). FBP1 plays a negative role in Warburg effect as a rate-limiting enzyme in gluconeogenesis, yet its mechanism in RCC remains to be further characterized. Herein, we revealed that FBP1 was downregulated in RCC tissue samples and was related to the poor survival rate of RCC. Strikingly, miR-24-1 whose DNA locus is overlapped with enhancer region chr9:95084940-95087024 was closely linked with the depletion of FBP1 in RCC. Of note, miRNAs like miR-24-1 whose DNA loci are enriched with H3K27ac and H3K4me1 modifications are belonging to nuclear activating miRNAs (NamiRNAs), which surprisingly upregulate target genes in RCC through enhancer beyond the conventional role of repressing target gene expression. Moreover, miR-24-1 reactivated the expression of FBP1 to suppress Warburg effect in RCC cells, and subsequently inhibited proliferation and metastasis of RCC cells. In mechanism, the activating role of miR-24-1 was dependent on enhancer integrity by dual luciferase reporter assay and CRISPR/Cas9 system. Ultimately, animal assay in vivo validated the suppressive function of FBP1 on 786-O and ACHN cells. Collectively, the current study highlighted that activation of FBP1 by enhancer-overlapped miR-24-1 is capable of contributing to Warburg effect repression through which RCC progression is robustly blocked, providing an alternative mechanism for RCC development and as well implying a potential clue for RCC treatment strategy.

    Abstract: Survival heterogeneity is observed among renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients with metastases in different organs. Moreover, almost all previous prognostic nomograms based on data from metastatic RCC patients did not take competing events, such as death from cerebrovascular and heart diseases, into account. We aimed to construct novel prognostic nomograms for patients with lung metastatic clear cell RCC (LMCCRCC). Data of 712 non-Hispanic white LMCCRCC patients registered in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database were retrospectively analyzed. Nomograms for predicting overall survival (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) were established using the Cox approach and Fine and Gray approach, respectively, and their performances were assessed using the concordance index (C-index), calibration plots, and an independent cohort comprising 181 Hispanic patients. Sex, tumor grade, T stage, N stage, presence or absence of bone metastases, and presence or absence of brain metastases were independent predictors for both OS and DSS. Additionally, presence or absence of liver metastases was an independent predictor only for DSS. Meanwhile, age at diagnosis was independently associated with OS. The C-indexes of the nomograms were 0.702 for OS and 0.723 for DSS in internal validation. In external validation, the C-indexes were 0.700 for OS and 0.708 for DSS. Both internal and external calibration plots showed excellent consistency between the prediction and the observation. The current study developed a novel nomogram for predicting individual OS in LMCCRCC patients. Moreover, we constructed an effective competing risk nomogram for predicting their individual DSS for the first time.

    Abstract: Large consortia have revealed hundreds of genetic loci associated with anthropometric traits, one trait at a time. We examined whether genetic variants affect body shape as a composite phenotype that is represented by a combination of anthropometric traits. We developed an approach that calculates averaged PCs (AvPCs) representing body shape derived from six anthropometric traits (body mass index, height, weight, waist and hip circumference, waist-to-hip ratio). The first four AvPCs explain 〉 99% of the variability, are heritable, and associate with cardiometabolic outcomes. We performed genome-wide association analyses for each body shape composite phenotype across 65 studies and meta-analysed summary statistics. We identify six novel loci: LEMD2 and CD47 for AvPC1, RPS6KA5 / C14orf159 and GANAB for AvPC3, and ARL15 and ANP32 for AvPC4. Our findings highlight the value of using multiple traits to define complex phenotypes for discovery, which are not captured by single-trait analyses, and may shed light onto new pathways.

    Abstract: The global network of gravitational-wave observatories now includes five detectors, namely LIGO Hanford, LIGO Livingston, Virgo, KAGRA, and GEO 600. These detectors collected data during their third observing run, O3, composed of three phases: O3a starting in 2019 April and lasting six months, O3b starting in 2019 November and lasting five months, and O3GK starting in 2020 April and lasting two weeks. In this paper we describe these data and various other science products that can be freely accessed through the Gravitational Wave Open Science Center at https://gwosc.org . The main data set, consisting of the gravitational-wave strain time series that contains the astrophysical signals, is released together with supporting data useful for their analysis and documentation, tutorials, as well as analysis software packages.

    Abstract: A predictive model for acquired premature ejaculation (APE) in PE patients has not yet been established. Objectives This study was aimed at determining which factors were independently associated with the possibility of predicting APE in PE patients, and whether an effective pre‐treatment nomogram for predicting their individual chances of being APE in PE patients can be developed. Materials and methods We analyzed the medical histories of 915 PE patients diagnosed at Xijing Hospital (Xi'an, China) and Northwest Women's and Children's Hospital (Xi'an, China) between May 2019 and May 2020. The diagnostic nomogram was developed using a multivariate logistic regression model by integrating selected significant variables determined through univariate analysis. Receiver operating characteristic curves were used to measure the predictive accuracy of the nomogram and its constituted variables, and calibrations were performed by making a comparison of nomogram‐predicted probability with actual rate of APE. Results The independent predictors for APE that were identified include Age, Intra‐vaginal Ejaculation Latency Time (IELT), Frequency of sexual desire (FSD), and Eysenck Personality Questionnaire‐Revised Short Scale for Chinese (psychoticism) [EPQ‐RSC(P)] scores. The predictive accuracy of the nomogram was 0.782 (95% CI: 0.723–0.841). Also, excellent agreement was demonstrated between the nomogram‐predicted probability and the actual rate of APE. Discussion and conclusion We identified 4 independent predictors for APE and demonstrated the potential significant differences in psychoticism between LPE and APE patients. This was the first internally validated predictive APE nomogram where good discrimination and calibration were applied, and it offers a promising role in clinical practice. More studies are necessary for verification of its universal applicability.

    Abstract: Shikonin, derived from the herb Lithospermum erythrorhizon (Purple Cromwell), is extensively utilized in traditional Chinese medicine as an anti-inflammatory agent; however, its effect on the intestinal flora is not yet known. Herein, we demonstrate that, compared to a blank control group, the intragastric administration of shikonin suppressed the swelling rate of ears in a mouse model of acute inflammation in a dose-dependent manner via animal experiments; furthermore, the 20 mg/kg shikonin treatment exhibited the highest inhibitory effect. In formal animal experimentation, we discovered that the inhibitory effect of shikonin with 20 mg/kg on inflammation was closely linked to the intestinal flora, whereby the microbiota phylum was altered in feces through a 16S rDNA sequencing analysis, implying that shikonin improves gut microbiota structures and compositions to counteract inflammation. Notably, using a real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), a Western blotting assay, and an immunohistochemistry (IHC) assay, we found that inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β reduced in both the shikonin-administration group and the positive control group than those in the blank control group, as expected. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to outline the underlying mechanism through which shikonin acts on gut microbes to alleviate acute inflammation, providing an alternative mechanism for shikonin to become a preventive agent in countering inflammation.

    Abstract: We present the results of a model-based search for continuous gravitational waves from the low-mass X-ray binary Scorpius X-1 using LIGO detector data from the third observing run of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo. This is a semicoherent search that uses details of the signal model to coherently combine data separated by less than a specified coherence time, which can be adjusted to balance sensitivity with computing cost. The search covered a range of gravitational-wave frequencies from 25 to 1600 Hz, as well as ranges in orbital speed, frequency, and phase determined from observational constraints. No significant detection candidates were found, and upper limits were set as a function of frequency. The most stringent limits, between 100 and 200 Hz, correspond to an amplitude h 0 of about 10 −25 when marginalized isotropically over the unknown inclination angle of the neutron star’s rotation axis, or less than 4 × 10 −26 assuming the optimal orientation. The sensitivity of this search is now probing amplitudes predicted by models of torque balance equilibrium. For the usual conservative model assuming accretion at the surface of the neutron star, our isotropically marginalized upper limits are close to the predicted amplitude from about 70 to 100 Hz; the limits assuming that the neutron star spin is aligned with the most likely orbital angular momentum are below the conservative torque balance predictions from 40 to 200 Hz. Assuming a broader range of accretion models, our direct limits on gravitational-wave amplitude delve into the relevant parameter space over a wide range of frequencies, to 500 Hz or more.

    Abstract: This narrative review summarizes key concepts in dairy nutrition for supporting human health throughout the life course. Milk and dairy products have been a staple component of our diet for thousands of years and provide a wide range of important nutrients that are otherwise difficult to obtain from dairy-free diets. In this review, we provide a broad perspective on the nutritional roles of iodine and dairy protein in supporting human health during pregnancy and early life, childhood and adolescence, mid- and later-life. New methodologies to identify biomarkers of dairy intake via high-throughput mass spectrometry are discussed, and new concepts such as the role of the food matrix in dairy nutrition are introduced. Finally, future policy and research related to the consumption of dairy and non-dairy alternatives for health are discussed with a view to improving nutritional status across the lifespan.
