An Examination of Parental Permissiveness of Alcohol Use and Monitoring, and Their Association with Emerging Adult Drinking Outcomes Across College.

BACKGROUND: Studies have shown that parents have a significant influence on emerging adult college students' drinking during the first year of college. Limited research has been conducted to address the question of whether parenting later in college continues to matter in a similar manner. The current study utilized a prospective design to identify associations between parental permissiveness toward alcohol use and monitoring behaviors and student drinking outcomes during the first and fourth years of college. METHODS: Participants (N = 1,429) at 3 large public universities completed surveys …

High Permissiveness for Genetic Exchanges between Enteroviruses of Species A, including Enterovirus 71, Favors Evolution through Intertypic Recombination in Madagascar.

Human enteroviruses of species A (EV-A) are the leading cause of hand-foot-and-mouth disease (HFMD). EV-A71 is frequently implicated in HFMD … types or EV-A71 genogroups with distantly related nonstructural sequences indicated a high level of permissiveness for intertypic genetic exchange in EV-A. This permissiveness suggests that the primary viral functions associated with the nonstructural sequences have been highly conserved through the diversification and evolution of the EV-A species. No outbreak …

Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte precursor frequency (CTLp-f) as a tool for distinguishing permissible from non-permissible class I mismatches in T-cell-depleted allogeneic bone marrow transplantation.

Matching for HLA has been the gold standard in bone marrow donor selection. But, with the ever increasing number of identified HLA alleles, it is becoming more difficult to find a fully HLA-identical donor other than a sibling. Retrospective analysis revealed that HLA mismatches do not necessarily give rise to acute graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD). However, we have no means of defining these 'permissible' mismatches before bone marrow transplantation (BMT). Thus, we set out to establish whether functional matching by means of helper and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte precursor frequency analysis (HTL

В Витро кори вирусное заражение подсетей лимфоцитов демонстрирует высокую удобочитаемость и безупречность как Наивных, так и Памятных Клеток В.

Корь характеризуется переходным подавлением иммунной системы, что ведет к повышению риска оппортунистических инфекций. Заражение иммунными клетками корью (MV) происходит при помощи клеточного рецептора CD150, выраженного поднаборами лимфоцитов, дендритных клеток, макрофаги и тимоцитов. Предыдущие исследования показали, что человеческие и нечеловеческие приматы памяти T клетки выражают более высокий уровень CD150, чем наивные клетки, и более восприимчивы к инфекциям MV. Вместе с тем имеется ограниченная информация о выражении CD150 и относительной чувствительности к инфекциям MV подклассов B-кл

Measles is characterized by a transient immune suppression, leading to an increased risk of opportunistic infections. Measles virus (MV) inf … susceptibility to MV infection of B-cell subsets. In this study, we assessed the susceptibility and permissiveness of naive and memory T- and B-cell subsets from human peripheral blood or tonsils to in vitro MV infection. Our study demonstrates that naive and memory B cells express CD150, but at lower frequencies than memory T cells. Nevertheless, both naive and …

Human lungs show limited permissiveness for SARS-CoV-2 due to scarce ACE2 levels but virus-induced expansion of inflammatory macrophages.

BACKGROUND: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) utilises the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) transmembrane peptidase as cellular entry receptor. However, whether SARS-CoV-2 in the alveolar compartment is strictly ACE2-dependent and to what extent virus-induced tissue damage and/or direct immune activation determines early pathogenesis is still elusive. METHODS: Spectral microscopy, single-cell/-nucleus RNA sequencing or ACE2 "gain-of-function" experiments were applied to infected human lung explants and adult stem cell derived human lung organoids to correlate

The Human Leukocyte Antigen-DPB1 Degree of Compatibility Is Determined by Its Expression Level and Mismatch Permissiveness: A German Multicenter Analysis.

T-cell epitope matching according to the TCE3 algorithm classifies HLA-DPB1 mismatches in permissive and non-permissive. This classification … algorithm for refinement of future donor selection. In particular, our findings suggest that DP non-permissiveness associated with two HLA-DPB1 mismatches or at least on highly expressed mismatched patient allotype should be avoided.

From ESP-Permissive to ESP-Driven: Recontextualizing English in Indonesia's Vocational Curriculum.

BACKGROUND: Technical and vocational education and training (TVET) increasingly expects English to support workplace communication. In Indonesian vocational high schools (Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan, SMK), English is formally positioned as vocationally relevant, but curriculum instruments provide limited guidance on occupational genres, needs analysis, and performance-based assessment. This study examined how English for Specific Purposes (ESP) is positioned and enacted in SMK Business and Management programs. METHODS: This qualitative multiple-case study involved three purposively selected urb

Early Human Pulmonary Lesions Define a Permissive Alveolar Niche for Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

UNLABELLED: Understanding mechanisms of pathogenesis and protection in human tuberculosis (TB) remain major global health challenges. While organized granulomas have long been the focus of TB research, growing evidence for asymptomatic transmission highlights the need to study earlier disease stages, particularly TB pneumonia, which remains underexplored. Defining the alveolar immune niche that governs bacillary expansion before granuloma formation is essential for interrupting transmission. Here, we integrate spatial transcriptomics, single cell RNA sequencing, and high resolution imaging of

Permissive and nonpermissive channel closings in CFTR revealed by a factor graph inference algorithm.

The closing of the gated ion channel in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator can be categorized as nonpermissive to reopening, which involves the unbinding of ADP or ATP, or permissive, which does not. Identifying the type of closing is of interest as interactions with nucleotides can be affected in mutants or by introducing agonists. However, all closings are electrically silent and difficult to differentiate. For single-channel patch-clamp traces, we show that the type of the closing can be accurately determined by an inference algorithm implemented on a factor graph, whic

Genetic control of neuronal activity enhances axonal growth only on permissive substrates.

BACKGROUND: Neural tissue has limited regenerative ability. To cope with that, in recent years a diverse set of novel tools has been used to tailor neurostimulation therapies and promote functional regeneration after axonal injuries. METHOD: In this report, we explore cell-specific methods to modulate neuronal activity, including opto- and chemogenetics to assess the effect of specific neuronal stimulation in the promotion of axonal regeneration after injury. RESULTS: Opto- and chemogenetic stimulations of neuronal activity elicited increased in vitro neurite outgrowth in both sensory and co

Mesh exposure after transvaginal mesh prolapse surgery: Out of permissible range?

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the prevalence of postoperative complications after transvaginal mesh prolapse surgery, and whether modified transvaginal mesh prolapse surgery (without transobturator arms or posterior mesh) has less prevalence of mesh exposure compared with conventional transvaginal mesh prolapse surgery. METHODS: Medical charts were retrospectively examined for 2648 patients who underwent transvaginal mesh prolapse surgery in a general hospital (2006-2017). Conventional transvaginal mesh prolapse surgery (Prolift-type, n = 2258) was used, with a shift from 2015 to modified transv

Maximum permissible load for Kiso horses trotting over a short, straight course.

This study aimed to determine the load-bearing capacity of trotting Kiso horses using gait analysis. Ten Kiso horses with a height at withers of 128 cm were included. Their riders were fitted with a marker (70 mm in diameter placed on their chest) recorded by two digital DVD cameras while trotting along a short, straight course. In total, eight tests were performed for each horse: the first with a 70 kg load; six with randomly loaded weights ranging 80-130 kg; and then a final test again with a 70 kg load. Three-dimensional movement of the marker was analyzed using a motion capture system. The

Parasitological and transcriptomic comparison of Strongyloides ratti infections in natural and in suboptimal permissive hosts.

The nematode genus Strongyloides consists of fairly species-specific small intestinal parasites of various vertebrates, among them the human pathogen S. stercoralis. Between the parthenogenetic parasitic generations these worms can also form single facultative sexual free-living generations. In addition to their primary hosts, several species can also live more or less well in other permissive hosts, which are sometimes not very closely related with the normal host. For example, S. stercoralis can also infect dogs and non-human primates. Here we compare the infection and reproductive success o

A biocatalytic approach to capuramycin analogues by exploiting a substrate permissive N-transacylase CapW.

Using the ATP-independent transacylase CapW required for the biosynthesis of capuramycin-type antibiotics, we developed a biocatalytic approach for the synthesis of 43 analogues via a one-step aminolysis reaction from a methyl ester precursor as an acyl donor and various nonnative amines as acyl acceptors. Further examination of the donor substrate scope for CapW revealed that this enzyme can also catalyze a direct transamidation reaction using the major capuramycin congener as a semisynthetic precursor. Biological activity tests revealed that a few of the new capuramycin analogues have signif

Human hepatic stellate cells are not permissive for hepatitis C virus entry and replication.

BACKGROUND: Chronic HCV infection is associated with the development of hepatic fibrosis. The direct role of HCV in the fibrogenic process is unknown. Specifically, whether HCV is able to infect hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) is debated. OBJECTIVE: To assess whether human HSCs are susceptible to HCV infection. DESIGN: We combined a set of original HCV models, including the infectious genotype 2a JFH1 model (HCVcc), retroviral pseudoparticles expressing the folded HCV genotype 1b envelope glycoproteins (HCVpp) and a subgenomic genotype 1b HCV replicon, and two relevant cellular models, primary

HLA-C expression levels define permissible mismatches in hematopoietic cell transplantation.

Life-threatening graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) limits the use of HLA-C-mismatched unrelated donors in transplantation. Clinicians lack criteria for donor selection when HLA-C-mismatched donors are a patient's only option for cure. We examined the role for HLA-C expression levels to identify permissible HLA-C mismatches. The median fluorescence intensity, a proxy of HLA-C expression, was assigned to each HLA-C allotype in 1975 patients and their HLA-C-mismatched unrelated transplant donors. The association of outcome with the level of expression of patients' and donors' HLA-C allotypes was e

Ganciclovir inhibits human adenovirus replication and pathogenicity in permissive immunosuppressed Syrian hamsters.

Adenovirus infections of immunocompromised patients can develop into deadly multiorgan or systemic disease. The virus is especially threatening for pediatric allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients; according to some studies, 10% or more of these patients succumb to disease resulting from adenovirus infection. At present, there is no drug approved for the treatment or prevention of adenovirus infections. Compounds that are approved to treat other virus infections are used off-label to combat adenovirus, but only anecdotal evidence of the efficacy of these drugs exists. Gancicl
