    Abstract COVID-19 disease in humans, caused by the novel SARS-CoV-2 virus, was first reported in the city of Wuhan, China in December 2019. This disease has quickly developed into a global pandemic, resulting in over 350,000 deaths worldwide and over 5 million confirmed infections in a matter of 6 months. Although the genome of this novel viral RNA was sequenced quickly and testing kits were manufactured to assist in combatting COVID-19, the diagnosis and treatment will remain relatively unsuccessful until the pathology of this disease is fully understood. Histotechnology plays an important role in understanding the pathology of many diseases, including COVID-19. The first postmortem biopsy of a COVID-19 patient was collected on 27 January 2020, and the pathology finding was published in mid-February 2020. Since then, more studies have been published in scientific literatures as the global outbreak continues. This mini-review summarizes the published articles in which histotechnology aspects were utilized with the intent to understand the pathology of COVID-19. In addition, it is anticipated there will be more molecular and immunohistochemical studies to further understand the mechanism of the disease in the near future.

    Abstract Spatial transcriptomics maps RNA molecules to the location in a tissue where they are expressed. Here we document the use of Slide-SeqV2 to visualize gene expression in the mouse olfactory bulb (OB). This approach relies on spatially identified beads to locate and quantify individual transcripts. The expression profiles associated with the beads are used to identify and localize individual cell types in an unbiased manner. We demonstrate the various cell types and subtypes with distinct spatial locations in the olfactory bulb that are identified using Slide-SeqV2.

    Abstract Understanding how cognitive processes including learning, memory, decision making and ideation are encoded by the genome is a key question in biology. Identification of sets of genes underlying human mental disorders is a path towards this objective. Schizophrenia is a common disease with cognitive symptoms, high heritability and complex genetics. We have identified genes involved with schizophrenia by measuring differences in DNA copy number across the entire genome in 91 schizophrenia cases and 92 controls in the Scottish population. Our data reproduce rare and common variants observed in public domain data from >3000 schizophrenia cases, confirming known disease loci as well as identifying novel loci. We found copy number variants in PDE10A (phosphodiesterase 10A), CYFIP1 [cytoplasmic FMR1 (Fragile X mental retardation 1)-interacting protein 1], K(+) channel genes KCNE1 and KCNE2, the Down's syndrome critical region 1 gene RCAN1 (regulator of calcineurin 1), cell-recognition protein CHL1 (cell adhesion molecule with homology with L1CAM), the transcription factor SP4 (specificity protein 4) and histone deacetylase HDAC9, among others (see http://www.genes2cognition.org/SCZ-CNV). Integrating the function of these many genes into a coherent model of schizophrenia and cognition is a major unanswered challenge.

    Abstract Indoramin is an alpha 1-adrenergic antagonist vasodilator of potential value in heart failure. We measured hemodynamics and exercise capacity in 12 patients with heart failure, before and after 1 week of indoramin dosing, 75 mg b.i.d. Maximal hemodynamic effects 2 hours after the first dose of indoramin consisted of reduced mean systemic arterial pressure from 96.0 +/- 15.3 to 87.9 +/- 15.3 mm Hg (P less than 0.05) and pulmonary wedge pressure from 23.6 +/- 7.8 to 16.9 +/- 6.6 mm Hg (P less than 0.001). Heart rate, cardiac index, and total systemic resistance did not change acutely after indoramin, but after 1 week mean systemic arterial pressure was still reduced whereas cardiac index fell from 2.69 +/- 0.38 to 2.32 +/- 0.44 L/min/m2 (P less than 0.05) and total systemic resistance rose from 20.4 +/- 2.8 to 21.9 +/- 4.0 U (P less than 0.1). After 1 week maximal exercise oxygen uptake fell from 16.8 +/- 5.6 to 12.5 +/- 3.5 ml/min/kg (P less than 0.02). This limited observation suggests that indoramin is a predominant venodilator acutely in patients with heart failure but that despite this effect it may worsen functional capacity and hemodynamics during continuous dosing in these patients.

    Abstract Current models of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder implicate multiple genes, however their biological relationships remain elusive. To test the genetic role of glutamate receptors and their interacting scaffold proteins, the exons of ten glutamatergic 'hub' genes in 1304 individuals were re-sequenced in case and control samples. No significant difference in the overall number of non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (nsSNPs) was observed between cases and controls. However, cluster analysis of nsSNPs identified two exons encoding the cysteine-rich domain and first transmembrane helix of GRM1 as a risk locus with five mutations highly enriched within these domains. A new splice variant lacking the transmembrane GPCR domain of GRM1 was discovered in the human brain and the GRM1 mutation cluster could perturb the regulation of this variant. The predicted effect on individuals harbouring multiple mutations distributed in their ten hub genes was also examined. Diseased individuals possessed an increased load of deleteriousness from multiple concurrent rare and common coding variants. Together, these data suggest a disease model in which the interplay of compound genetic coding variants, distributed among glutamate receptors and their interacting proteins, contribute to the pathogenesis of schizophrenia and bipolar disorders.
