Early adverse care has long-term impacts on physical and mental health. The influence of rearing conditions on the infant's gut microbiota and its relationship with developmental health has become more evident. The microbiome is essential for normal growth and metabolism, and the signaling from the gut to the brain may underlie individual differences in resilience later in life. Microbial diversity and composition were determined using 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing in fecal samples from 17 adolescents adopted internationally from orphanages into the United States and 18 adolescents reared in birth families who had similar educational and income levels. Analyses focused on diversity of the microbial community structure and differences in the abundance of specific bacterial taxa. Agomelatine in vitro Blood samples were used to immunophenotype the numbers of several T-cell subsets and cytomegalovirus (CMV) seropositivity. Negative binomial regression analysis revealed several operational taxonomic units that were significantly different based on early rearing conditions and CMV seropositivity. There were significant associations between the relative abundance of certain taxa, the percentages of T-cell subsets in circulation, and CMV seropositivity. These findings demonstrate a possible link between the gut microbiota and associations with immune alterations initiated by early life adversity.As a popular hot-pot ingredient, Chinese-style shrimp mud (Xia-Hua) is usually transported and stored frozen. However, frozen storage leads to decreased quality of Xia-Hua products caused by the variations in physicochemical and functional properties of myofibrillar proteins (MPs). Κ-carrageenan and its oligosaccharides are reported as antioxidants and antifreeze and can stabilize proteins in whole shrimp, but their effects on MPs in Xia-Hua remain poorly understood. Compared to the control and Na4 P2 O7 treatments, the physicochemical properties of MPs in κ-carrageenan and its oligosaccharides-incorporated Xia-Hua were evaluated during 120 days of frozen storage. The results showed that cold stress increased the susceptibility of MPs to denaturation and oxidation during frozen storage. Carrageenan oligosaccharides maintained the turbidity, emulsifying activity, stability, and foaming capacity of MPs. Oxidation analysis showed that the incorporation of carrageenan oligosaccharides significantly retarded the rapid decrease of Ca2+ -ATPase activity, total sulphydryl and active sulphydryl contents, and also effectively inhibited the increases of carbonyl content and surface hydrophobicity of MPs. Thermal stability results confirmed that the oligosaccharides improved the denaturation temperature and enthalpy of MPs compared to the control, Na4 P2 O7 , and carrageenan treatments. This study suggests that κ-carrageenan and its oligosaccharides maintain the properties of MPs in Xia-Hua during frozen storage. PRACTICAL APPLICATION The cryoprotection and antioxidant effects of carrageenan oligosaccharides on the stability of MPs in frozen shrimp mud can be used to extend the shelf-life and maintain the quality of frozen Xia-Hua products. Furthermore, it can drive the development of aquatic product health industry, improve the quality and safety of aquatic products, reduce the occurrence of public food safety incidents, and maintain social stability.Phosphodiesterase 3A (PDE3A) is an enzyme that plays an important role in the regulation of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-mediated intracellular signaling in cardiac myocytes and platelets. PDE3A hydrolyzes cAMP, which results in a decrease in intracellular cAMP levels and leads to platelet activation. Whole-exome sequencing of 50 DNA samples from a healthy Korean population revealed a total of 13 single nucleotide polymorphisms including five missense variants, D12N, Y497C, H504Q, C707R, and A980V. Recombinant proteins for the five variants of PDE3A (and wild-type protein) were expressed in a FreeStyle 293 expression system with site-directed mutagenesis. The expression of the recombinant PDE3A proteins was confirmed with Western blotting. Catalytic activity of the PDE3A missense variants and wild-type enzyme was measured with a PDE-based assay. Effects of the missense variants on the inhibition of PDE3A activity by cilostazol were also investigated. All variant proteins showed reduced activity (33-53%; p less then .0001) compared to the wild-type protein. In addition, PDE3A activity was inhibited by cilostazol in a dose-dependent manner and was further suppressed in the missense variants. Specifically, the PDE3A Y497C showed significantly reduced activity, consistent with the predictions of in silico analyses. The present study provides evidence that individuals carrying the PDE3A Y497C variant may have lower enzyme activity for cAMP hydrolysis, which could cause interindividual variation in cAMP-mediated physiological functions.Cell-of-origin subclassification of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) into activated B cell-like (ABC), germinal centre B cell-like (GCB) and unclassified (UNC) or type III by gene expression profiling is recommended in the latest update of the World Health Organization's classification of lymphoid neoplasms. There is, however, no accepted gold standard method or dataset for this classification. Here, we compare classification results using gene expression data for 68 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded DLBCL samples measured on four different gene expression platforms (Illumina wG-DASLTM arrays, Affymetrix PrimeView arrays, Illumina TrueSeq RNA sequencing and the HTG EdgeSeq DLBCL Cell of Origin Assay EU using an established platform agnostic classification algorithm (DAC) and the classifier native to the HTG platform, which is CE marked for in vitro diagnostic use (CE-IVD). Classification methods and platforms show a high level of concordance, with agreement in at least 80% of cases and rising to much higher levels for classifications of high confidence. Our results demonstrate that cell-of-origin classification by gene expression profiling on different platforms is robust, and that the use of the confidence value alongside the classification result is important in clinical applications.
