    Abstract Translational control at the initiation, elongation, and termination steps exerts immediate effects on the rate as well as the spatiotemporal dynamics of new protein synthesis, shaping the composition of the proteome. Translational control is particularly important for cells under stress as during viral infection or in disease conditions such as cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Much has been learned about the control mechanisms acting at the translational initiation step under normal or pathological conditions. However, problems during the elongation or termination steps of translation can lead to ribosome stalling and ribosome collision, which will trigger ribosome-associated quality control (RQC) mechanism. Inadequate RQC may lead to the accumulation of faulty translation products that perturb protein homeostasis (proteostasis). Proteostasis signifies a cellular state in which the synthesis, folding, and degradation of proteins are maintained at a homeostatic state such that an intact proteome is preserved. Cellular capacity to preserve proteostasis declines with age, which is thought to contribute to age-related diseases. Proteostasis failure manifested as formation of aberrant protein aggregates, epitomized by the amyloid plaques in Alzheimer's disease (AD), is a defining feature of neurodegenerative diseases. The root cause of the proteostasis failure and protein aggregation is still enigmatic. Here I will review recent studies supporting that faulty translation products resulting from inadequate RQC of translational stalling and ribosome collision during the translation of problematic mRNAs can be the root cause of proteostasis failure and may represent novel therapeutic targets for neurodegenerative diseases. I will also review evidence that translation regulation by RQC is operative in cancer cells and during viral infection. Better understanding of RQC mechanism may lead to novel therapeutic strategies against neurodegenerative diseases, cancer, and viral infections, including the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

    Abstract Stroke is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. A main cause of brain damage by stroke is ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury due to the increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and energy failure caused by changes in mitochondrial metabolism. Ischemia causes a build-up of succinate in tissues and changes in the mitochondrial NADH: ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex I) activity that promote reverse electron transfer (RET), in which a portion of the electrons derived from succinate are redirected from ubiquinol along complex I to reach the NADH dehydrogenase module of complex I, where matrix NAD

    Abstract Stroke is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. A main cause of brain damage by stroke is ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury due to the increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and energy failure caused by changes in mitochondrial metabolism. Ischemia causes a build-up of succinate in tissues and changes in the mitochondrial NADH: ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex I) activity that promote reverse electron transfer (RET), in which a portion of the electrons derived from succinate are redirected from ubiquinol along complex I to reach the NADH dehydrogenase module of complex I, where matrix NAD⁺ is converted to NADH and excessive ROS is produced. RET has been shown to play a role in macrophage activation in response to bacterial infection, electron transport chain reorganization in response to changes in the energy supply, and carotid body adaptation to changes in the oxygen levels. In addition to stroke, deregulated RET and RET-generated ROS (RET-ROS) have been implicated in tissue damage during organ transplantation, whereas an RET-induced NAD⁺/NADH ratio decrease has been implicated in aging, age-related neurodegeneration, and cancer. In this review, we provide a historical account of the roles of ROS and oxidative damage in the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke, summarize the latest developments in our understanding of RET biology and RET-associated pathological conditions, and discuss new ways to target ischemic stroke, cancer, aging, and age-related neurodegenerative diseases by modulating RET.

    Abstract Objective: We sought to assess the feasibility of endoscopic lateral and superior cerebellar keyhole approach for exposure of the anterior and middle incisural space and Meckel cave.
    Methods: The endoscopic lateral and superior cerebellar keyhole approach was performed in 6 cadaveric heads (12 sides) using 0- and 30-degree endoscopes, respectively. The anatomic structures for this approach to the anterior and middle incisural space and Meckel cave were observed.
    Results: By grinding out the suprameatal tubercle and petrous apex and incising the tentorium, the anatomic structures in the anterior incisural space were visualized. The mean area exposed with a 0-degree endoscope in the anterior incisural space was 212.50 ± 6.04 mm
    Conclusions: This approach provides access to the anterior and middle incisural space and Meckel cave, which is feasible to clearly expose the anatomic structures in those regions with minimal invasiveness. Additionally, better visualization and surgical space can be achieved under a 30-degree endoscope.

    Abstract Purpose: To assess the safety and efficacy of ultrasound-guided percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for the treatment of refractory non-nodular hyperthyroidism.
    Methods: This was a single-center retrospective study in 9 patients with refractory non-nodular hyperthyroidism (2 males, 7 females; median age, range, 36 years, 14-55 years) who underwent RFA between August 2018 and September 2020. The incidence of post-procedural complications, changes in thyroid volume, thyroid function and the use and dosages of anti-thyroid drugs, were compared pre- and post-RFA.
    Results: All patients completed the procedure successfully, and no serious complications occurred. Three months after ablation, thyroid volumes were significantly decreased with the mean volumes of the right and left lobes reduced to 45.6% (10.9 ± 2.2 ml/23.9 ± 7.2 ml, p < 0.001) and 50.2% (10.8 ± 7.4 ml/21.5 ± 11.4 ml, p = 0.001) of the volumes within 1 week after ablation. The thyroid function was gradually improved in all patients. At 3 months post-ablation, the levels of FT3 and FT4 were returned to the normal range (FT3, 4.9 ± 1.6 pmol/L vs. 8.7 ± 4.2 pmol/L, p = 0.009; FT4, 13.1 ± 7.2 pmol/L vs. 25.9 ± 12.6 pmol/L, p = 0.038), the TR-Ab level was significantly lower (4.8 ± 3.9 vs. 16.5 ± 16.4 IU/L, p = 0.027), and the TSH level was significantly higher (0.76 ± 0.88 vs. 0.03 ± 0.06, p = 0.031) than that before-ablation. Additionally, three months after RFA, the anti-thyroid medication dosages were reduced to 31.25% compared to baseline (p < 0.01).
    Conclusion: Ultrasound-guided RFA in the treatment of refractory non-nodular hyperthyroidism was safe and effective in this small group of patients with limited follow-up. Further studies with larger cohorts and longer follow-up are needed to validate this potential new application of thyroid thermal ablation.

    Abstract Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by dysregulation of the expression and processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP). Protein quality control systems are dedicated to remove faulty and deleterious proteins to maintain cellular protein homeostasis (proteostasis). Identidying mechanisms underlying APP protein regulation is crucial for understanding AD pathogenesis. However, the factors and associated molecular mechanisms regulating APP protein quality control remain poorly defined. In this study, we show that mutant APP with its mitochondrial-targeting sequence ablated exhibited predominant endoplasmic reticulum (ER) distribution and led to aberrant ER morphology, deficits in locomotor activity, and shortened lifespan. We searched for regulators that could counteract the toxicity caused by the ectopic expression of this mutant APP. Genetic removal of the ribosome-associated quality control (RQC) factor RACK1 resulted in reduced levels of ectopically expressed mutant APP. By contrast, gain of RACK1 function increased mutant APP level. Additionally, overexpression of the ER stress regulator (IRE1) resulted in reduced levels of ectopically expressed mutant APP. Mechanistically, the RQC related ATPase VCP/p97 and the E3 ubiquitin ligase Hrd1 were required for the reduction of mutant APP level by IRE1. These factors also regulated the expression and toxicity of ectopically expressed wild type APP, supporting their relevance to APP biology. Our results reveal functions of RACK1 and IRE1 in regulating the quality control of APP homeostasis and mitigating its pathogenic effects, with implications for the understanding and treatment of AD.
