  1. Article: Justice for Our Genes: The Case for Genetic Non-discrimination Regulations in the New Zealand Life Insurance Industry.

    Buckenham Boyle, Emily

    Journal of law and medicine

    2022  Volume 29, Issue 3, Page(s) 760–782

    Abstract While most comparable jurisdictions have adopted more restrictive positions, life insurers in New Zealand remain permitted to request the disclosure of predictive genetic test results from applicants, driving up the cost to obtain life insurance for those with known susceptibilities to genetic disease. The permissive approach is now an outlier, and risks disincentivising health care and research innovation, facilitating irrational discrimination, and compounding existing health inequities. This article examines the New Zealand position through a consequentialist lens. It analyses justifications for the status quo, as well as international approaches, before concluding that genetic non-discrimination regulations governing New Zealand's life insurance industry should be introduced to enhance public wellbeing.

    Abstract Due to their essential functions, dysregulation of nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) is strongly associated with numerous human diseases, including neurodegeneration and cancer. On a cellular level, longevity of scaffold nucleoporins in postmitotic cells of both C. elegans and mammals renders them vulnerable to age-related damage, which is associated with an increase in pore leakiness and accumulation of intranuclear aggregates in rat brain cells. Thus, understanding the mechanisms which underpin the homeostasis of this complex, as well as other nuclear proteins, is essential. In this review, autophagy-mediated degradation pathways governing nuclear components in yeast will be discussed, with a particular focus on NPCs. Furthermore, the various nuclear degradation mechanisms identified thus far in diverse eukaryotes will also be highlighted.

    Abstract Strongyloidiasis is a worldwide parasitic infection. Many who develop infection remain asymptomatic. Due to Stronygloides autoinfection cycle it can result in chronic infection over decades. Immunosuppression particularly with corticosteroids has been associated with a rapid acceleration of the autoinfection cycle known as Strongyloides hyperinfection syndrome. The hyperinfection syndrome has severe complications and is associated with significant patient mortality. Here we report a case of hyperinfection complicated by polymicrobial bacteremia and intestinal ileus and review the literature regarding the hyperinfection syndrome.

    Abstract Diabetes and its associated complications have increasingly become major challenges for global healthcare. The current therapeutic strategies involve insulin replacement therapy for type 1 diabetes (T1D) and small-molecule drugs for type 2 diabetes (T2D). Despite these advances, the complex nature of diabetes necessitates innovative clinical interventions for effective treatment and complication prevention. Accumulative evidence suggests that protein post-translational modifications (PTMs), including glycosylation, phosphorylation, acetylation, and SUMOylation, play important roles in diabetes and its pathological consequences. Therefore, the investigation of these PTMs not only sheds important light on the mechanistic regulation of diabetes but also opens new avenues for targeted therapies. Here, we offer a comprehensive overview of the role of several PTMs in diabetes, focusing on the most recent advances in understanding their functions and regulatory mechanisms. Additionally, we summarize the pharmacological interventions targeting PTMs that have advanced into clinical trials for the treatment of diabetes. Current challenges and future perspectives are also provided.
