    Abstract Background: Scoliosis curves present transverse plane deviations due to vertebral rotation. The Schroth method supports thoracic derotation by training patients to exert "derotational" breathing based on assumed enhanced ventilation in areas called "humps" in scoliosis and a patient's ability to voluntarily direct ventilation in less ventilated areas called "flats."
    Objective: To assess the asymmetric ventilation distribution and the ability of patients to direct their ventilation to perform derotational breathing.
    Methods: Twelve girls with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis and 12 healthy girls performed 3 × 3 min of rest, maximal, and derotational breathing. Electrical impedance tomography was used to record locoregional lung ventilation distribution (LLVD) within 4 thoracic regions of interest: anterior right (ROI 1), anterior left (ROI 2), posterior right (ROI 3), and posterior left (ROI 4) quadrants. Humps and flats were the sums of ROI '2 + 3' and ROI '1 + 4,' respectively.
    Results: Overall, no difference in LLVD was observed in the flats and humps between groups. At rest, the LLVD in the humps was more elevated than that in the flats (51.5 ± 8.1% versus 43.6 ± 7.9%; p = .021) when considering both groups. Maximal and derotational breathing led to a more homogeneous LLVD between the humps and flats.
    Conclusion: The postulated derotational breathing effect was not confirmed.

    Abstract New technologies are required to combat the challenges faced with manufacturing commercial quantities of oligonucleotide drug substances which are required for treating large patient populations. Herein we report a convergent biocatalytic synthesis strategy for an Alnylam model siRNA. The siRNA chemical structure includes several of the unnatural modifications and conjugations typical of siRNA drug substances. Using Almac's 3-2-3-2 hybrid RNA ligase enzyme strategy that sequentially ligates short oligonucleotide fragments (blockmers), the target siRNA was produced to high purity at 1 mM concentration. Additional strategies were investigated including the use of polynucleotide kinase phosphorylation and the use of crude blockmer starting materials without chromatographic purification. These findings highlight a path toward a convergent synthesis of siRNAs for large-scale manufacture marrying both enzymatic liquid and classical solid-phase synthesis.

    Abstract Endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) are an integral part of the mammalian genome. The role of immune control of ERVs in general is poorly defined as is their function as anti-cancer immune targets or drivers of autoimmune disease. Here, we generate mouse-strains where Moloney-Murine Leukemia Virus tagged with GFP (ERV-GFP) infected the mouse germline. This enables us to analyze the role of genetic, epigenetic and cell intrinsic restriction factors in ERV activation and control. We identify an autoreactive B cell response against the neo-self/ERV antigen GFP as a key mechanism of ERV control. Hallmarks of this response are spontaneous ERV-GFP

    Abstract Multidrug resistance arising from the activity of integral membrane transporter proteins presents a global public health threat. In bacteria such as Escherichia coli, transporter proteins belonging to the major facilitator superfamily make a considerable contribution to multidrug resistance by catalysing efflux of myriad structurally and chemically different antimicrobial compounds. Despite their clinical relevance, questions pertaining to mechanistic details of how these promiscuous proteins function remain outstanding, and the role(s) played by individual amino acid residues in recognition, binding and subsequent transport of different antimicrobial substrates by multidrug efflux members of the major facilitator superfamily requires illumination. Using in silico homology modelling, molecular docking and mutagenesis studies in combination with substrate binding and transport assays, we identified several amino acid residues that play important roles in antimicrobial substrate recognition, binding and transport by Escherichia coli MdtM, a representative multidrug efflux protein of the major facilitator superfamily. Furthermore, our studies suggested that 'aromatic clamps' formed by tyrosine and phenylalanine residues located within the substrate binding pocket of MdtM may be important for antimicrobial substrate recognition and transport by the protein. Such 'clamps' may be a structurally and functionally important feature of all major facilitator multidrug efflux proteins.

  8. Article: Disturbed cofactor binding by a novel mutation in UDP-galactose 4′-epimerase results in a type III galactosemia phenotype at birth

    Abstract UDP-galactose 4′-epimerase (GALE) is an essential enzyme in galactose metabolism and its dysfunction results in type III galactosemia. Herein we report a patient born with abnormal blood galactose levels and reduced GALE activity who was shown to be heterozygous for a c.266C>T missense mutation in the GALE gene, predicted to result in the amino acid exchange p.A89V. Over a period of months, the patient's blood galactose, galactose 1-phosphate and GALE activity levels reverted to normal, encouraging us to investigate this mutation. Structurally Ala89 is a highly conserved residue located close to the binding site of the cofactor, NAD+. Consequentially molecular modelling predicted that this mutation results in steric clashes between the cofactor and valine side chain, and bioinformatic predictions suggested that p.A89V is likely to be less stable than the wild-type. Biochemical studies on the recombinant p.A89V enzyme demonstrated lower activity than the wild type (Km increased by approximately 30-fold; kcat reduced approximately 180-fold), and additionally changes in stability and altered NAD+ binding were observed. Thus, a picture emerges in which this mutation leads to reduced stability, disturbed cofactor binding and subsequently reduced activity. Overall this study suggests that bioinformatics predictions are useful in assessing the effects of newly discovered mutations on enzyme function, but care should be taken in extending predictions to the clinical phenotype especially in cases of heterozygosity. It also raises interesting questions about a dominant negative effect of some GALE missense alleles and potential compensatory mechanisms occurring in people born with clinical chemistry measurements suggesting a diagnosis of galactosemia.

    Abstract Objectives: To identify rural health systems' perceptions of value, benefits, barriers, and opportunities associated with community pharmacist involvement in patient transitions of care.
    Setting: Rural health systems in northwest and central Missouri.
    Practice description and innovation: Qualitative descriptive study of key informant interviews with self-identified decision makers of rural health systems within a 50-mile radius of 15 independent community pharmacy chain locations.
    Evaluation: Interviews were recorded, transcribed, and coded to evaluate themes in participant responses.
    Results: Fifteen interviews were conducted at 8 rural health systems. Participants expressed significant value in community pharmacist involvement in transitions of care and highlighted several benefits, barriers, and opportunities related to potential collaboration. Benefits that were identified included medication monitoring, resource for patient information, and desire among health care providers to work with community pharmacists. Barriers included legal and regulatory issues with referral, communication, and prescriber utilization. Opportunities described included: patient education, monitoring, and follow-up; targeted interventions; medication access assistance; bedside medication delivery; and collaboration between community pharmacies and health care entities.
    Conclusion: Rural health system informants perceived community pharmacy involvement to be valuable and were receptive to collaboration during transitional care to improve patient outcomes. They highlighted barriers to overcome to truly incorporate community pharmacists into the transitional care arena. Understanding these rural health systems' perceptions can guide community pharmacies in developing collaborative relationships and patient care services to assist with care transitions.

    Series title In: Weber, Matthias; Schilling, Herbert (Ed.), Eskalierte Elternkonflikte. Beratungsarbeit im Interesse des Kindes bei hoch strittigen Trennungen (S. 73-90). Weinheim: Juventa
    Abstract Es wird ein Überblick über integrative Interventionsansätze bei hoch eskalierten Trennungs- und Scheidungskonflikten gegeben, die aus einer validen theoretischen Modellierung scheidungsbezogener Hochstrittigkeit abgeleitet wurden. Dabei werden vor allem US-amerikanische Ansätze referiert, deren Wirksamkeitspotenzial über Evaluationsstudien abgesichert worden ist. Folgende Aspekte dieser US-amerikanischen Interventionsansätze werden erörtert: Präventionsorientierung; Elternprogramme für hoch strittige Scheidungspaare; Anwälte, Berater und Therapeuten, die als "Parent Coordinators" versuchen, im Bedarfsfall eine schnelle außergerichtliche Lösung zu ermöglichen; "Supervised Access" bzw. Wiederanbahnung und/oder Aufrechterhaltung der Eltern-Kind-Beziehung durch Sicherstellung der Kontakte in einem geschützten Umfeld (Hilfen zur Kontaktanbahnung für nichtsorgeberechtigte Eltern, Koordination von Elternschaft bei häuslicher Gewalt, therapeutische Umgangsbegleitung). Anschließend werden der begleitete Umgang und die integrative Beratung als zwei Ansätze beschrieben, die sich bisher in Deutschland im Umgang mit Hochkonfliktparteien etabliert haben. Auf die zentrale Bedeutung der interdisziplinären Zusammenarbeit zum Schutz der Kinder vor den destruktiven Auswirkungen hoch strittiger Elternkonflikte wird abschließend hingewiesen. In diesem Zusammenhang wird betont, dass US-amerikanische Erfahrungen belegen, dass obligatorische Programme mehr Eltern erreichen als solche auf freiwilliger Basis.
