Article Abstract

2-Oxo-imidazole-containing dipeptides (2-oxo-IDPs), novel imidazole-containing dipeptide (IDP) derivatives, exhibit a much higher antioxidant capacity than that of IDPs. However, quantitative methods have only been developed for IDPs, and methods for the quantitative analysis of 2-oxo-IDPs are needed. In this study, we developed methods for the quantitative analysis of 2-oxo-IDPs by high-performance liquid chromatography with online electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI-MS/MS) coupled with a stable isotope dilution method. First, we prepared stable isotope-labeled IDP and 2-oxo-IDP standards for MS analyses. Next, using these standards, we established highly sensitive, selective, and absolute quantitative analysis methods for five IDPs and five 2-oxo-IDPs by HPLC-ESI-MS/MS, achieving a limit of detection in the fmol range. Finally, we applied the method to various types of meat, such as beef, pork, chicken, and whale meat, demonstrating the detection of both IDPs and 2-oxo-IDPs. Furthermore, we provide the first evidence for the endogenous production of 2-oxo-balenine in meats. The methods developed in this study enable the detection of trace levels of 2-oxo-IDPs in biological samples and could be helpful for understanding the biological relevance of 2-oxo-IDPs.

Purpose: Hereditary Leiomyomatosis and Renal Cell Cancer (HLRCC) is a rare cancer susceptibility syndrome exclusively attributable to pathogenic variants in FH (HGNC:3700). This paper quantitatively weights the phenotypic context (PP4/PS4) of such very rare variants in FH.

Methods: We collated clinical diagnostic testing data on germline FH variants from 387 individuals with HLRCC and 1,780 individuals with renal cancer, and compared the frequency of 'very rare' variants in each phenotypic cohort against 562,295 population controls.

Aims: This study aims to assess the effectiveness and implementation of the 5Ways@School curriculum-based intervention in Norwegian schools. The intervention builds on the Five Ways to Wellbeing framework, and promotes five action domains: connect with others, be physically active, take notice, keep learning, and give. The study objectives include assessing the intervention's acceptability, appropriateness, feasibility, fidelity, and cost, as well as its impact on students' wellbeing and mental health.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are transformative platforms for heterogeneous catalysis, but distinguishing atomically dispersed metal sites from subnanometric clusters remains a major challenge. This often demands the integration of multiple characterization techniques, many of which either lack the resolving power to distinguish active sites from their surrounding environments (e.g.

Background: Disruption of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) in high-grade brain tumors is characterized by contrast accumulation on diagnostic imaging. This window of opportunity study correlates contrast imaging features with the tumor distribution of BBB-permeable (levetiracetam) and -impermeable (cefazolin) drugs.

Methods: Patients with a clinical diagnosis of a high-grade brain tumor underwent MRI for surgical planning.

Objectives: Patients with connective tissue diseases (CTD) have a high incidence of cardiac involvement, which often presents insidiously and can progress rapidly, making it one of the leading causes of death. Multiparametric cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) provides a comprehensive quantitative evaluation of myocardial injury and is emerging as a valuable tool for detecting cardiac involvement in CTD. This study aims to investigate the correlations between CMR features and serological biomarkers in CTD patients, assess their potential clinical value, and further explore the impact of pre-CMR immunotherapy intensity on CMR-specific parameters, thereby evaluating the role of CMR in the early diagnosis of CTD-related cardiac involvement.
