Selective Coupling of Aminophosphole-Based Fluorophores to Unprotected Peptides through P-S Bond Formation.

Phosphole-based fluorophores are attractive dyes for bioimaging due to their relatively compact molecular structures, strong fluorescence up to the near-infrared region with large Stokes shifts, and remarkable resistance to photobleaching. Therefore, the development of efficient and chemoselective coupling methods for functionalizing phospholes is of significant interest for biomolecular labeling. Herein, we describe the synthesis of novel P-aminophospholes and their use for direct conjugation to cysteinyl peptides under mild conditions.

HLA Class Ib and MICA/MICB Expression in Human Tissues and Cell Types: Reshuffling Immune Players.

Abnormal expression of HLA class Ib, MICA and MICB molecules is associated with the evolution of pathological conditions and clinical settings. Here, we use RNA-sequencing data from two publicly-available projects, from different human organs and tissues and at single-cell level, to present their transcriptional expression throughout the human body, in comparison to that of HLA class Ia, HLA class II, their costimulatory molecules, and the main HLA transcription factors. Our analyses for 21 target genes reveal that median gene expression differs by orders of magnitude and that the classical/non-classical HLA distinction is not absolute for overall expression.

Radiofrequency thermocoagulation for the treatment of refractory focal status epilepticus.

This case study reports the first documented use of stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG)-guided radiofrequency thermocoagulation (RFTC) to treat refractory status epilepticus (RSE). A 33-year-old woman with drug-resistant epilepsy and recurrent RSE underwent SEEG to define her epileptogenic zone. A new RSE started shortly before and continued during the SEEG exploration, being unresponsive to multiple antiseizure medications, vagal nerve stimulation, and corticosteroid therapy.

Development and experimental validation of a two-axis thrust stand for the characterization of electric thruster thrust vectoring.

A two-axis thrust stand is developed and validated experimentally, enabling direct and simultaneous measurements of two components of the thrust vector of an electric thruster. It is made of two piled-up single-axis stages, each having a hanging deformable parallelogram geometry. A mass deposition calibration method is used to calibrate the thrust stand, including crosstalk between axes.

Binocular cues to 3D face structure increase activation in depth-selective visual cortex with negligible effects in face-selective areas.

Studies of visual face processing often use flat images as proxies for real faces due to their ease of manipulation and experimental control. Although flat images capture many features of a face, they lack the rich three-dimensional (3D) structural information available when binocularly viewing real faces (e.g.

Facial Asymmetry in the Helical Grooves of Chiral Helical Polymers to Create 2D Single-Chain Archimedean Spiral Nanostructures.

Archimedean spirals are architectural motifs that are found in nature. The facial asymmetry of amphiphilic molecules or macromolecules has been a key parameter in the preparation of these well-organized two-dimensional nanostructures in the laboratory. This facial asymmetry is also present in the helical grooves of chiral helical substituted poly(phenylacetylene)s (PPAs) and poly(diphenylacetylene)s (PDPAs), making them excellent candidates for self-assembly into 2D Archimedean nanospirals or nanotoroids.

Feasibility and efficacy of exercise training on sleep symptoms and comorbidities in narcolepsy type 1: a prospective interventional study.

Current treatments for narcolepsy type 1 (NT1) have little impact on psychiatric, cognitive and metabolic comorbidities. Here, we evaluated the feasibility, safety and efficacy of a prospective Exercise Training (ET) program on sleep-related symptoms and comorbidities in NT1. Sedentary adult with NT1 participated in a 6-week supervised ET program followed by a 18-week self-directed program.

Development of Coarse-Grained Lipid Force Fields Based on a Graph Neural Network.

Coarse-grained (CG) lipid models enable efficient simulations of large-scale membrane events. However, achieving both speed and atomic-level accuracy remains challenging. Graph neural networks (GNNs) trained on all-atom (AA) simulations can serve as CG force fields, which have demonstrated success in CG simulations of proteins.

Multiyear Drought Strengthens Positive and Negative Functional Diversity Effects on Tree Growth Response.

Mixed-species forests are proposed to enhance tree resistance and resilience to drought. However, growing evidence shows that tree species richness does not consistently improve tree growth responses to drought. The underlying mechanisms remain uncertain, especially under unprecedented multiyear droughts.

De novo assembled nuclear, chloroplast and mitochondrial genomes show high intraspecific variation in the tropical rainforest species Symphonia globulifera.

Symphonia globulifera (Clusiaceae) has emerged as a model organism in tropical forest ecology and evolution due to its significant ecological role and complex biogeographical history. Originating from Africa, this species has independently colonized Caribbean, Central and South America three times, becoming a key component of tropical ecosystems across these regions. Despite the ecological importance of S.

Similar Outcome With Haploidentical, Matched Sibling, or Matched Unrelated Donor Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation for Adult Patients With Adverse-Risk TP53-Mutated Acute Myeloid Leukemia in First Remission: A Comparative Study From the Global Committee and the Acute Leukemia Working Party of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation.

Given the dismal prognosis for patients with TP53-mutated acute myeloid leukemia (AML), the optimal donor for those undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) remains unclear. We retrospectively analyzed adult patients with TP53-mutated AML who underwent first allo-HCT in CR1 between 2010 and 2021. Outcomes were compared among using a haploidentical donor (Haplo), a matched sibling donor (MSD), and a 10/10 matched unrelated donor (MUD).

A myotropic AAV vector combined with skeletal muscle -regulatory elements improve glycogen clearance in mouse models of Pompe disease.

Pompe disease is a glycogen storage disorder caused by mutations in the acid α-glucosidase (GAA) gene, leading to reduced GAA activity and glycogen accumulation in heart and skeletal muscles. Enzyme replacement therapy with recombinant GAA, the standard of care for Pompe disease, is limited by poor skeletal muscle distribution and immune responses after repeated administrations. The expression of GAA in muscle with adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors has shown limitations, mainly the low targeting efficiency and immune responses to the transgene.

[OverView of infectious and non-infectious diseases in French Polynesia in 2025].

Tahiti or the "myth of Paradise", Bora Bora, "the Pearl of the Pacific". Who has never wanted to take a plane and come and land on the heavenly beaches of Polynesia, a French territory at the antipodes of mainland France lost in the middle of the Pacific? However, we do not imagine that 60% of Polynesians live below the metropolitan low-income threshold or that life expectancy is lower than that of the mainland due to the high prevalence of cardiovascular diseases with three quarters overweight population.In addition to non-transmissible metabolic diseases, various pathologies common to temperate countries present specificities in Polynesia, leading to sometimes different management and medical reasoning.

Digital twins in nuclear medicine: A proposition of a modular pipeline for dosimetry protocol optimization in molecular radiotherapy.

Digital twins (DTs) are emerging tools for simulating and optimizing therapeutic protocols in personalized nuclear medicine. In this paper, we present a modular pipeline for constructing patient-specific DTs aimed at assessing and improving dosimetry protocols in PRRT such as therapy. The pipeline integrates three components: (i) an anatomical DT, generated by registering patient CT scans with an anthropomorphic model; (ii) a functional DT, based on a physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model created in SimBiology; and (iii) a virtual clinical trial module using GATE to simulate particle transport, image simulation, and absorbed dose distribution.

Anterior-posterior and medial-lateral balance metrics are unchanged when two-dimensional pseudorandom motion perturbations are provided in semicircular canal coordinates.

Introduction: External continuous perturbations using a motion platform have been developed by employing either sum-of-sines (SoS) or a pseudorandom ternary sequence (PRTS) of numbers to quantify body sway evoked in the medial-lateral (ML) or anterior-posterior (AP) directions, which ultimately helps understand the human postural control system. These stimuli have been provided via pitch tilts of the motion platform for evaluations of AP balance responses or roll tilts for ML balance responses. However, little is known about whether a healthy postural control system responds to 2-dimensional (2D) perturbations similarly when the perturbation stimuli are provided in semicircular canal coordinates (i.

Enhancing diagnostic precision: a multicentric study of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial mediastinal cryobiopsy in lymphoproliferative disorders.

Background: The diagnostic accuracy of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) for the diagnosis of lymphoma has a low overall sensitivity. The lack of tissue architecture obtained by cytological needles decreases the diagnostic accuracy for diagnosis and subtyping of and relapsed mediastinal lymphomas. This study compares the sensitivity of EBUS-TBNA and endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial mediastinal cryobiopsy (EBUS-TMC) for both initial lymphoma diagnosis and recurrent cases, analyses safety, and evaluates the number of mediastinoscopies that could potentially be avoided due to this novel technique.
