Exploring the induction of preproinsulin-specific Foxp3+ CD4+ Treg cells that inhibit CD8+ T cell-mediated autoimmune diabetes by DNA vaccination by Stifter, Katja, Schuster, Cornelia, Schlosser, Michael, Boehm, Bernhard Otto, Schirmbeck, Reinhold

“…TGF-β expression was significantly enhanced in the Foxp3(+) CD25(+) Treg cell population of vaccinated/ppins-primed mice. Ablation of Treg cells in vaccinated/ppins-primed mice by anti-CD25 antibody treatment abolished the protective effect of the vaccine and enabled diabetes induction by pCI/ppins. …”

Lasting dynamic effects of the psychedelic 2,5-dimethoxy-4- iodoamphetamine ((±)-DOI) on cognitive flexibility by Sabanovic, M, Lazari, A, Blanco Pozo, M, Tisca, C, Tachrount, M, Martins Bach, A, Lerch, J, Walton, M, Bannerman, D

“…Strikingly, (±)-DOI-treated mice started learning from reward omissions, a unique strategy not typically seen in mice in this task, suggesting heightened sensitivity to previously overlooked cues. …”

Investigation of the effects of Anti-Müllerian Hormone on preventing Doxorubicin-induced primordial follicle loss by Wei, X

“…Follicular damage caused by DXR was also demonstrated in adult mouse ovaries in vivo but not in human pre-pubertal ovarian tissue xenotransplanted into mice. Although there were trends, there was no significant effect of AMH treatment alone on inhibiting primordial follicle activation in mouse ovarian tissue (in vitro and in vivo) or human ovarian tissue (xenotransplanted into mice). …”

PPARβ/δ prevents endoplasmic reticulum stress-associated inflammation and insulin resistance in skeletal muscle cells through an AMPK-dependent mechanism by Salvadó, Laia, Barroso, Emma, Gómez-Foix, Anna Maria, Palomer, Xavier, Michalik, Liliane, Wahli, Walter, Vázquez-Carrera, Manuel

“…Methods Studies were conducted in mouse C2C12 myotubes, in the human myogenic cell line LHCN-M2 and in skeletal muscle from wild-type and PPARβ/δ-deficient mice and mice exposed to a high-fat diet. Results The PPARβ/δ agonist GW501516 prevented lipid-induced ER stress in mouse and human myotubes and in skeletal muscle of mice fed a high-fat diet. …”

Investigating viral glycosylation pathways for drug and vaccine development by Brun, J

“…Chapter 4 focuses on the site-specific glycosylation occupancy, and N- and O-glycan structures attached to virion derived SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoproteins. This glycan signature was compared to a stabilised prefusion trimeric spike, to a monomeric subunit of spike (S1) and to an antigen of a non-stabilised vaccine candidate, revealing subunit shedding of the S1 glycoprotein for the vaccine candidate. …”

Comparative effects of domain-specific human monoclonal antibodies against LGI1 on neuronal excitability by Sell, J, Rahmati, V, Kempfer, M, Irani, SR, Ritzau-Jost, A, Hallermann, S, Geis, C

“…However, only the LRR-specific mAbs increased the number of action potential firing together with enhanced initial instantaneous frequency and promoted spike-frequency adaptation, which were less pronounced after the EPTP mAb. …”
