    Abstract Actin bundling proteins crosslink filaments into polarized structures that shape and support membrane protrusions including filopodia, microvilli, and stereocilia. In the case of epithelial microvilli, mitotic spindle positioning protein (MISP) is an actin bundler that localizes specifically to the basal rootlets, where the pointed ends of core bundle filaments converge. Previous studies established that MISP is prevented from binding more distal segments of the core bundle by competition with other actin binding proteins. Yet whether MISP holds a preference for binding directly to rootlet actin remains an open question. Using

    Abstract Actin bundling proteins crosslink filaments into polarized structures that shape and support membrane protrusions including filopodia, microvilli, and stereocilia. In the case of epithelial microvilli, mitotic spindle positioning protein (MISP) is an actin bundler that localizes specifically to the basal rootlets, where the pointed ends of core bundle filaments converge. Previous studies established that MISP is prevented from binding more distal segments of the core bundle by competition with other actin-binding proteins. Yet whether MISP holds a preference for binding directly to rootlet actin remains an open question. By immunostaining native intestinal tissue sections, we found that microvillar rootlets are decorated with the severing protein, cofilin, suggesting high levels of ADP-actin in these structures. Using total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy assays, we also found that purified MISP exhibits a binding preference for ADP- versus ADP-Pi-actin-containing filaments. Consistent with this, assays with actively growing actin filaments revealed that MISP binds at or near their pointed ends. Moreover, although substrate attached MISP assembles filament bundles in parallel and antiparallel configurations, in solution MISP assembles parallel bundles consisting of multiple filaments exhibiting uniform polarity. These discoveries highlight nucleotide state sensing as a mechanism for sorting actin bundlers along filaments and driving their accumulation near filament ends. Such localized binding might drive parallel bundle formation and/or locally modulate bundle mechanical properties in microvilli and related protrusions.

    Abstract AbstractThe taxonomic study of monstrilloid copepods is hampered by incomplete early descriptions, uncertain synonymies, and the difficulty of reliably matching males and females of species. A re-evaluation of male monstrilloid specimens collected from two reef areas of the Mexican Caribbean allowed me to clarify the status of Monstrilla mariaeugeniae Suárez-Morales & Islas-Landeros, 1993 and M. wandelii Stephensen, 1913 based on a comparison of males attributed to each of these species. Males from the Puerto Morelos reef system, northern Mexican Caribbean coast, were first proposed as a tropical subspecies of the subarctic M. wandelii

    later on, morphologically close males collected from the Mahahual reef area, southern Mexican Caribbean coast, were designated as the males of M. mariaeugeniae . Their status is here corrected with the description of M. mahahualensis sp. nov. based on the Mahahual males; the new species shares the same type of genitalia with the antarctic M. conjunctiva Giesbrecht, 1892 and the subarctic M. wandelii; Park (1967) linked a single male from Vancouver to M. wandelii. It was realised that Park’s (1967) males from the Vancouver area and the two Mexican Caribbean groups of males represent different, undescribed species. I here reassign the males earlier attributed to M. mariaeugeniae as a new species of Monstrilla which is herein described. The new species differs from the males of M. conjunctiva and M. wandelii by details of the genitalia, length of the setae of the fifth legs, armature and integumental structures of the antennules, and size of the outer exopodal spines of legs 1–4. This is the third known species of Monstrilla with a M. conjunctiva-like male genitalia and the first one known from tropical areas. The male of both M. mariaeugeniae and M. wandelii remain unknown.

    Abstract The genus Monstrilla Dana, 1849 is one of the most diverse of the copepod order Monstrilloida and has a worldwide distribution. A new genus, Spinomonstrilla n. gen. is proposed for Monstrilla spinosa Park, 1967 from Canada and California. Spinomonstrilla spinosa (Park, 1970), formerly M. spinosa, the type species of the new genus, is redescribed from type specimens. The new genus shows a unique set of conspicuous characters in both males and females that clearly diverge from all other monstrilloids. It can be recognized by the presence of a large rostral process and paired dorsal metasomal spiniform processes; the female antennule structure and setation diverge from the usual monstrilloid pattern; its body shows a unique ornamentation pattern. These characters allow an easy recognition of members of Spinomonstrilla from all other Monstrilloida.

    Abstract In bio-signal denoising, current methods reported in the literature consider purely simulated environments, requiring high computational powers and signal processing algorithms that may introduce signal distortion. To achieve an efficient noise reduction, such methods require previous knowledge of the noise signals or to have certain periodicity and stability, making the noise estimation difficult to predict. In this paper, we solve these challenges through the development of an experimental method applied to bio-signal denoising using a combined approach. This is based on the implementation of unconventional electric field sensors used for creating a noise replica required to obtain the ideal Wiener filter transfer function and achieve further noise reduction. This work aims to investigate the suitability of the proposed approach for real-time noise reduction affecting bio-signal recordings. The experimental evaluation presented here considers two scenarios: (a) human bio-signals trials including electrocardiogram, electromyogram and electrooculogram; and (b) bio-signal recordings from the MIT-MIH arrhythmia database. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated using qualitative criteria (i.e., power spectral density) and quantitative criteria (i.e., signal-to-noise ratio and mean square error) followed by a comparison between the proposed methodology and state of the art denoising methods. The results indicate that the combined approach proposed in this paper can be used for noise reduction in electrocardiogram, electromyogram and electrooculogram signals, achieving noise attenuation levels of 26.4 dB, 21.2 dB and 40.8 dB, respectively.

    Abstract Renal involvement in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) represents one of the most frequent organ manifestations, often leading to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). Several therapies have been tested in patients with lupus nephritis (LN) to prevent further organ damage. The effectiveness of immunosuppressive therapy as a treatment for LN is abundant, supported by multiple clinical trials that have shown its efficacy in preventing the development of chronic kidney disease (CKD). In addition to immunosuppressive therapy, several traditional and recent therapies aimed at nephroprotection in patients with proteinuric chronic kidney disease are gaining importance in the setting of LN. Thus, immunosuppressive therapy should be accompanied by nephro- and cardioprotective measures to control cardiovascular risk factors and proteinuria to ensure a better renal prognosis. Despite this, the literature on these specific measures is relatively scarce, with recommendations focused on the blockade of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS). This review explores the pharmacological options available for cardiovascular and renal protection outside the usual treatment schemes.
