Disruption of a neural microcircuit in the rod pathway of the mammalian retina by diabetes mellitus
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-04)Diabetes leads to dysfunction of the neural retina before and independent of classical microvascular diabetic retinopathy, but previous studies have failed to demonstrate which neurons and circuits are affected at the ... -
Dissecting the Role of AXL in Cancer Immune Escape and Resistance to Immune Checkpoint Inhibition
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The development and implementation of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors (ICI) in clinical oncology have significantly improved the survival of a subset of cancer patients with metastatic disease previously considered uniformly ... -
Distributed computing and data storage in proteomics: many hands make light work, and a stronger memory
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-03)Modern day proteomics generates ever more complex data, causing the requirements on the storage and processing of such data to outgrow the capacity of most desktop computers. To cope with the increased computational demands, ... -
Disulfiram, a ferroptosis inducer, triggers lysosomal membrane permeabilization by up-regulating ROS in glioblastoma
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Introduction: Disulfiram (DSF), a drug used in the treatment of alcoholism since 1948, has been shown to have antitumor properties in various tumor types possibly due to the induction of a type cell death, ferroptosis, and ... -
Do Poor Diet and Lifestyle Behaviors Modify the Genetic Susceptibility to Impulsivity in the General Population?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023-03-27)The present study investigated whether an unhealthy diet and other lifestyle behaviors may modify the genetic susceptibility to impulsivity. A total of 33,047 participants (mean age = 42.1 years, 59.8% females) from the ... -
Dominant ARL3-related retinitis pigmentosa
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Purpose: To clinically and genetically characterise a second family with dominant ARL3-related retinitis pigmentosa due to a specific ARL3 missense variant, p.(Tyr90Cys). Methods: Clinical examination included optical ... -
A dominant negative splice variant of the heparan sulfate biosynthesis enzyme NDST1 reduces heparan sulfate sulfation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)NDST1 (glucosaminyl N-deacetylase/N-sulfotransferase) is a key enzyme in heparan sulfate (HS) biosynthesis, where it is responsible for HS N-deacetylation and N-sulfation. In addition to the full length human enzyme of 882 ... -
Doping knowledge, attitudes, and practices of Ugandan athletes': A cross-sectional study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-09-22)Background. Despite the development of advanced drug testing systems, both deliberate and inadvertent doping in sports is increasing in elite, amateur and school sports. As a result, alternative approaches that seek to ... -
Druggable genome in attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder and its co-morbid conditions. New avenues for treatment.
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder with only symptomatic care available. Genome-wide association (GWA) studies can provide a starting point in the search for novel drug ... -
DrugPred_RNA—A Tool for Structure-Based Druggability Predictions for RNA Binding Sites
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)RNA is an emerging target for drug discovery. However, like for proteins, not all RNA binding sites are equally suited to be addressed with conventional drug-like ligands. To this end, we have developed the structure-based ... -
The dual role of glioma exosomal microRNAs: glioma eliminates tumor suppressor miR-1298-5p via exosomes to promote immunosuppressive effects of MDSCs
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Clear evidence shows that tumors could secrete microRNAs (miRNAs) via exosomes to modulate the tumor microenvironment (TME). However, the mechanisms sorting specific miRNAs into exosomes are still unclear. In order to study ... -
Dwarfism in mice lacking collagen-binding integrins alpha 2 beta 1 and alpha 11 beta 1 is caused by severely diminished IGF-1 levels
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-02)Mice with a combined deficiency in the α2β1 and α11β1 integrins lack the major receptors for collagen I. These mutants are born with inconspicuous differences in size but develop dwarfism within the first 4 weeks of life. ... -
Dynamic Arc SUMOylation and Selective Interaction with F-Actin-Binding Protein Drebrin A in LTP Consolidation In Vivo
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-05-10)Activity-regulatedcytoskeleton-associated protein (Arc) protein is implicated as a master regulator of long-term forms of synaptic plasticity and memory formation, but the mechanisms controlling Arc protein function are ... -
Dynamic contrast enhanced MRI detects early response to adoptive NK cellular immunotherapy targeting the NG2 proteoglycan in a rat model of glioblastoma
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-09-30)There are currently no established radiological parameters that predict response to immunotherapy. We hypothesised that multiparametric, longitudinal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of physiological parameters and ... -
Dynamic expression of long noncoding RNAs and repeat elements in synaptic plasticity
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-10-01)Long-term potentiation (LTP) of synaptic transmission is recognized as a cellular mechanism for learning and memory storage. Although de novo gene transcription is known to be required in the formation of stable LTP, the ... -
Dynamic switching between intrinsic and extrinsic mode networks as demands change from passive to active processing
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-12-08)In this study we report on the relationship between default and extrinsic mode networks across alternating brief periods of rest and active task processing. Three different visual tasks were used in a classic fMRI ON–OFF ... -
Early Evolutionary Selection of NAD Biosynthesis Pathway in Bacteria
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Bacteria use two alternative pathways to synthesize nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) from nicotinamide (Nam). A short, two-step route proceeds through nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) formation, whereas the other ... -
