    Abstract Rhabdomyosarcoma is the most common pediatric soft tissue tumor, comprising two major subtypes: the PAX3/7-FOXO1 fusion-negative embryonal and the PAX3/7-FOXO1 fusion-positive alveolar subtype. Here, we demonstrate that the expression levels of the transcriptional repressor TRPS1 are specifically enhanced in the embryonal subtype, resulting in impaired terminal myogenic differentiation and tumor growth. During normal myogenesis, expression levels of TRPS1 have to decrease to allow myogenic progression, as demonstrated by overexpression of TRPS1 in myoblasts impairing myotube formation. Consequentially, myogenic differentiation in embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma in vitro as well as in vivo can be achieved by reducing TRPS1 levels. Furthermore, we show that TRPS1 levels in RD cells, the bona fide model cell line for embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma, are regulated by miR-1 and that TRPS1 and MYOD1 share common genomic binding sites. The myogenin (MYOG) promoter is one of the critical targets of TRPS1 and MYOD1; we demonstrate that TRPS1 restricts MYOG expression and thereby inhibits terminal myogenic differentiation. Therefore, reduction of TRPS1 levels in embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma might be a therapeutic approach to drive embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma cells into myogenic differentiation, thereby generating postmitotic myotubes.

    Abstract Emerging single-molecule protein sensing techniques are ushering in a transformative era in biomedical research. Nevertheless, challenges persist in realizing ultra-fast full-length protein sensing, including loss of molecular integrity due to protein fragmentation, biases introduced by antibodies affinity, identification of proteoforms, and low throughputs. Here, a single-molecule method for parallel protein separation and tracking is introduced, yielding multi-dimensional molecular properties used for their identification. Proteins are tagged by chemo-selective dual amino-acid specific labels and are electrophoretically separated by their mass/charge in custom-designed thin silicon channel with subwavelength height. This approach allows analysis of thousands of individual proteins within a few minutes by tracking their motion during the migration. The power of the method is demonstrated by quantifying a cytokine panel for host-response discrimination between viral and bacterial infections. Moreover, it is shown that two clinically-relevant splice isoforms of Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) can be accurately quantified from human serum samples. Being non-destructive and compatible with full-length intact proteins, this method opens up ways for antibody-free single-protein molecule quantification.

    Abstract Ensuring high standards of animal welfare is not only an ethical duty for zoos and aquariums, but it is also essential to achieve their conservation, education, and research goals. While for some species, animal welfare assessment frameworks are already in place, little has been done for marine animals under human care. Responding to this demand, the welfare committee of the European Association for Aquatic Mammals (EAAM) set up a group of experts on welfare science, cetacean biology, and zoo animal medicine across Europe. Their objective was to develop a comprehensive tool to evaluate the welfare of bottlenose dolphins (

    Abstract Dramatic changes have occurred recently in the field of epilepsy, including a fundamental shift in the etiology of epileptogenic substrates found at surgery. Hippocampal sclerosis is no longer the most common etiology found at epilepsy surgery and this decrease has been associated with an increase in the incidence of focal cortical dysplasia and encephaloceles. Significant advances have been made in molecular biology and genetics underlying the basis of malformations of cortical development, and our ability to detect epileptogenic abnormalities with MR imaging has markedly improved. This article begins with a discussion of these trends and reviews imaging techniques essential for detecting of subtle epilepsy findings. Representative examples of subtle imaging findings are presented, which are often overlooked but should not be missed. These include temporal lobe encephaloceles, malformations of cortical development (and especially focal cortical dysplasia), hippocampal sclerosis, hippocampal malformation (also known as HIMAL), ulegyria, autoimmune encephalitis, and Rasmussen's encephalitis. Recent findings on the pathophysiology and genetic underpinnings of several causes of localization-related epilepsy are incorporated. For instance, it has been recently found that focal cortical dysplasia IIb, tuberous sclerosis, hemimegalencephaly, and gangliogliomas are all the result of mutations of the mTOR pathway for cell growth.

    Abstract The World Health Organization's Model List of Essential Medicines for Children (EMLc) presents a list of the most efficacious, safe, and cost-effective medicines for priority conditions, intended for use in children up to 12 years of age. However, gaps in global availability and use of age-appropriate formulations of medicines for children still exist. To address these shortcomings, a comprehensive analysis of the appropriateness of formulations of essential medicines for children is being undertaken through the Global Accelerator for Paediatric Formulations (GAP-f) network, a WHO network launched in 2020 to respond to the paediatric treatment gap. This article describes the development and application of a paediatric Quality Target Product Profile (pQTPP) tool by WHO, to retrospectively evaluate the paediatric age-appropriateness of formulations on the EMLc and identify potential formulation gaps, to inform the review of the EMLc in 2023. A combination of paediatric-centric and global health-focused attributes and targets were defined, taking into consideration regulatory agency paediatric development guidelines and literature sources, and a qualitative scoring system was developed and tested. Example evaluations of paracetamol and clofazimine are provided, illustrating the tool's use. The assessment of EMLc formulations is ongoing and shortcomings and gaps in EMLc formulations have already been identified. The pQTTP tool may also be applied to national lists and prospectively when designing new paediatric formulations.

    Abstract Children and neonates are highly vulnerable to the impact of antimicrobial resistance. Substantial barriers are faced in relation to research and development of antibacterial agents for use in neonates, children, and adolescents aged yonger than 19 years, and focusing finite resources on the most appropriate agents for development and paediatric optimisation is urgently needed. In November and December, 2022, following the successes of previous similar disease-focused exercises, WHO convened the first Paediatric Drug Optimisation (PADO) exercise for antibiotics, aiming to provide a shortlist of antibiotics to be prioritised for paediatric research and development, especially for use in regions with the highest burden of disease attributable to serious bacterial infection. A range of antibiotics with either existing license for children or in clinical development in adults but with little paediatric data were considered, and PADO priority and PADO watch lists were formulated. This Review provides the background and overview of the exercise processes and its outcomes as well as a concise review of the literature supporting decision making. Follow-up actions to implement the outcomes from the PADO for antibiotics process are also summarised. This Review highlights the major beneficial influence the collaborative PADO process can have, both for therapeutic drug class and disease-specific themes, in uniting efforts to ensure children have access to essential medicines across the world.

    Abstract Cerebral sinus venous thrombosis (CSVT) is an uncommon disease that is usually treated with anticoagulation (heparin, low-molecular heparin, or vitamin K-antagonists). We compared treatment with edoxaban, an oral factor Xa-antagonist, that has not been approved in patients with CSVT, with enoxaparin, a well-established therapy, in a rat model of CSVT. Fifty male Wistar rats were randomized into 5 groups (10 animals each) and subjected to aluminum chloride (AlCl3)-induced thrombosis of the superior sagittal sinus (SSS) or sham procedure. Animals with thrombosis of the SSS were treated with edoxaban, enoxaparin, or placebo. Diagnostic workup included neurological examination, MRI imaging, MR-flow measurements of the SSS, and immunohistochemical staining. Neurological examination revealed no differences between treatment groups. Seven days after initial thrombosis, flow in the SSS was lower in the active treatment group as compared to sham-operated animals (p < 0.05). Flow in the SSS in the active treatment groups (edoxaban 1 h prior to thrombosis: 0.16 cm/s ± 0.06 cm/s; edoxaban 6 h after thrombosis: 0.13 cm/s ± 0.05 cm/s; enoxaparin: 0.13 cm/s ± 0.04 cm/s; placebo: 0.07 cm/s ± 0.02 cm/s) was higher as compared to placebo (p < 0.05), but there were no differences between the active treatment groups (p > 0.05). Immunohistochemical staining showed no differences in the actively treated animals. Edoxaban proved to be similar to enoxaparin in a model of experimental AlCl
