Regulation of Septin Dynamics by the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Lysine Acetyltransferase NuA4

Ottawa Institute of Systems Biology, Department of Biochemistry, Microbiology, and Immunology, University of Ottawa, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada 2011 publication 10 minutes Evidence: moderate

Mitchell Leslie Lau, André Lambert, Jean-Philippe Zhou, Hu Fong Ying Couture, Jean-François Figeys, Daniel Baetz, Kristin Hardwick

Title

Regulation of Septin Dynamics by the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Lysine Acetyltransferase NuA4

Hypothesis

NuA4 regulates septin dynamics through the acetylation of septin proteins.

Conclusion

The study provides evidence that NuA4 impacts septin dynamics and identifies acetylation as a novel post-translational modification regulating septin proteins.

Genetic Variation in CD-1 Mice

The University of Chicago 2009 n=245 publication Evidence: moderate

Aldinger Kimberly A., Sokoloff Greta, Rosenberg David M., Palmer Abraham A., Millen Kathleen J.

Title

Genetic Variation in CD-1 Mice

Hypothesis

What is the degree of genetic variation present in outbred CD-1 mice?

Conclusion

CD-1 mice exhibit significant genetic variation and population substructure, making them suitable for genetic studies.

Different Capacity of Monocyte Subsets to Phagocytose Iron-Oxide Nanoparticles

Institut für Radiologie, Klinikum Rechts der Isar, Technische Universität München, Munich, Germany 2011 n=15 publication Evidence: moderate

Marcus Settles, Martin Etzrodt, Katja Kosanke, Matthias Schiemann, Alexander Zimmermann, Reinhard Meier, Rickmer Braren, Armin Huber, Ernst J. Rummeny, Ralph Weissleder, Filip K. Swirski, Moritz Wildgruber

Title

Different Capacity of Monocyte Subsets to Phagocytose Iron-Oxide Nanoparticles

Hypothesis

To explore the capacity of human CD14+CD16++ and CD14++CD16- monocytes to phagocyte iron-oxide nanoparticles in vitro.

Conclusion

Human monocyte subsets internalize different magnetic nanoparticle preparations differently, resulting in variable loading capacities, imaging phenotypes and likely biological properties.

Food Intake Patterns in Northern Sweden

University of Gothenburg and Umeå University 2009 n=62531 publication 10 minutes Evidence: moderate

Anna Winkvist, Agneta Hörnell, Göran Hallmans, Bernt Lindahl, Lars Weinehall, Ingegerd Johansson

Title

Food Intake Patterns in Northern Sweden

Hypothesis

Are there distinct food intake patterns among women and men in northern Sweden?

Conclusion

Women exhibited more distinct food intake patterns than men in northern Sweden.

Loss of Glucocorticoid Receptor Expression in Small Cell Lung Cancer

University of Manchester 2011 n=14 publication Evidence: moderate

Kay Paul, Schlossmacher George, Matthews Laura, Sommer Paula, Singh Dave, White Anne, Ray David

Title

Loss of Glucocorticoid Receptor Expression in Small Cell Lung Cancer

Hypothesis

The loss of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) expression in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) cells is due to DNA methylation.

Conclusion

DNA methylation decreases GR gene expression in human SCLC cells, which may contribute to their resistance to glucocorticoids.

BioMart – Biological Queries Made Easy

European Bioinformatics Institute 2009 publication Evidence: high

Smedley Damian, Haider Syed, Ballester Benoit, Holland Richard, London Darin, Thorisson Gudmundur, Kasprzyk Arek

Title

BioMart – Biological Queries Made Easy

Hypothesis

Biologists need a more efficient way to perform complex queries across various biological databases.

Conclusion

BioMart is an easy to use, generic and scalable system that has become integral to large data resources.

Title

Assessing Clinical Progression of Niemann-Pick Disease by College Students

Hypothesis

Can trained college students accurately assess clinical records to characterize disease progression in Niemann-Pick Disease?

Conclusion

The study shows that college students can be trained to assess patient records and provide insights into the natural history of Niemann-Pick Disease.

Comparative Analysis of Neisseria gonorrhoeae Genome Sequences

University of Birmingham 2009 publication Evidence: moderate

Lori A. Snyder, Jeff A. Cole, Mark J. Pallen

Title

Comparative Analysis of Neisseria gonorrhoeae Genome Sequences

Hypothesis

Do differences in the presence and sequence of Correia Repeat Enclosed Elements (CREE) contribute to regulatory differences between Neisseria gonorrhoeae strains?

Conclusion

The study provides strong evidence of the mobility of CREE in Neisseria gonorrhoeae and suggests that these elements contribute to regulatory differences between strains.
