Spontaneous partial resolution of autoimmune-mediated brain MRI abnormalities before immunotherapy in anti-metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 encephalitis: a case report.

Anti-metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) encephalitis is a rare autoimmune disorder characterized by varied neurological symptoms, often associated with limbic syndromes. We report the case of a 57-year-old female who presented with obvious ataxia, and then cognitive impairment and behavioral changes. MRI revealed cerebellar dentate nucleus and basal ganglia lesions with enhancement, which spontaneously regressed on follow-up imaging-a rare phenomenon in mGluR5 encephalitis.

High-pressure structuring of milk protein concentrate: Effect of pH and calcium.

In this study, we investigated the effect of pH and calcium on the structural properties of gels created by high-pressure processing (HPP, 600 MPa, 5°C, 3 min) of milk protein concentrate (MPC, 12.5% protein). The pH level of the MPC was varied between 6.

Structure and shelf stability of milk protein gels created by pressure-assisted enzymatic gelation.

In this work, pressure-assisted enzymatic gelation was applied to milk proteins, with the goal of enhancing the structure and stability of pressure-created milk protein gels. High-pressure processing (HPP) at 600 MPa, 3 min, and 5°C was applied to milk protein concentrate (MPC) samples of 12.5% protein concentration, both in the absence and in the presence of calf chymosin [up to 60 IMCU (international milk-clotting units)/kg of milk] or camel chymosin (up to 45 IMCU/kg of milk).
