This study demonstrated the correlation between weather changes and the resulting changes in the pollen season with sensitization rates to allergenic pollens in children living in the Seoul metropolitan area. An annual increase in sensitization rates in younger children was determined. This pattern is expected to continue due to continuing climate change.<br /><br />This study demonstrated the correlation between weather changes and the resulting changes in the pollen season with sensitization rates to allergenic pollens in children living in the Seoul metropolitan area.

A relatively frequent event, revertant mosaicism may bring favorable outcomes that ameliorate disorders, and is therefore called "natural gene therapy." However, it has been revealed recently that "overcorrection" of inherited bone marrow failure in patients with sterile alpha motif domain containing 9 (SAMD9)/9L syndromes by revertant mosaicism induces myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) with monosomy 7 that occasionally proceeds to acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). In this review, we interpret very complex mechanisms underlying MDS/AML in patients with SAMD9/9L syndromes. This includes multiple myeloid tumor suppressors on the long arm of chromosome 7, all of which act in a haploinsufficient fashion, and a difference in sensitivity to interferon between cells carrying a mutation and revertants. Overcorrection of mutants by somatic mosaicism is likely a novel mechanism in carcinogenesis.Understanding how community composition is reshaped by changing climate is important for interpreting and predicting patterns of community assembly through time or across space. Community composition often does not perfectly correspond to expectations from current environmental conditions, leading to community-climate mismatches. Here, we combine data analysis and theory development to explore how species climate response curves affect the community response to climate change. We show that strong mismatches between community and climate can appear in the absence of demographic delays or limited species pools. Communities simulated using species response curves showed temporal changes of similar magnitude to those observed in natural communities of fishes and plankton, suggesting no overall delays in community change despite substantial unexplained variation from community assembly and other processes. Our approach can be considered as a null model that will be important to use when interpreting observed community responses to climate change and variability.Low back pain (LBP) is a major clinical problem that lacks effective treatments. The sensory innervation in porous vertebral endplates and anxiety contributes to spinal hyperalgesia. We hypothesized that SIRT1 activator resveratrol alleviates LBP and anxiety via promotion of osteogenesis in the porous endplates. The hyperalgesia and anxiety-related behaviors; sensory innervation, inflammation and porosity of endplates; and osteogenic/osteoclastic factors expression were measured following resveratrol treatment after lumbar spine instability (LSI) surgery. To explore whether resveratrol promotes endplates osteogenesis and thus alleviates LBP through activation of SIRT1 in the osteoprogenitor cells of endplates, SIRT1OSX-/- mice were employed. Additionally, the levels of inflammation markers, phosphorylation of cAMP response element-binding protein (pCREB), and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in hippocampus were evaluated. After 4 or 8 weeks LSI surgery, the mice suffered from hyperalgesia and anxiety, which were efficiently attenuated by resveratrol at 8 weeks. Resveratrol treatment-enhanced osteogenesis and decreased endplates porosities accompanied with the reduction of TNFα, IL-1β, and COX2 levels and CGRP+ nerve fibers innervation in porous endplates. Resveratrol-mediated endplates osteogenesis, decreased endplates porosities, and analgesic and antianxiety effects were abrogated in SIRT1OSX-/- mice. Furthermore, resveratrol relieved inflammation and increased pCREB and BDNF expression in the hippocampus after 8 weeks, which alleviate anxiety-related behaviors. This study provides that resveratrol-mediated porous endplates osteogenesis via the activation of SIRT1 markedly blocked sensory innervation and inflammation in endplates, therefore, alleviating LSI surgery-induced LBP and hippocampus-related anxiety.Keratinocytes are the key cellular target for IL-17A-mediated effects in psoriasis and HSP90 is important for IL-17A-mediated signalling. RGRN-305 is a novel HSP90 inhibitor reported to reduce psoriatic phenotypes in preclinical animal models. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of RGRN-305 on a psoriasis-like inflammatory response in human keratinocytes in vitro. [https://www.selleckchem.com/products/nms-873.html see more] Using RT-qPCR, we demonstrated a significantly increased expression of the HSP90 isoforms HSP90AB1, HSP90B1 and TRAP1 in lesional compared with non-lesional psoriatic skin. In a psoriasis-like setting where keratinocytes were stimulated with TNFα and/or IL-17A, we analysed the mRNA expression using the NanoString nCounter technology and demonstrated that the HSP90 inhibitor RGRN-305 significantly reduced the IL-17A- and TNFα-induced gene expression of a number of proinflammatory genes, including the psoriasis-associated genes CCL20, NFKBIZ, IL36G and IL23A. In agreement with the mRNA data, the protein level of CCL20, IκBζ and IL-36γ were inhibited by RGRN-305 as demonstrated by western blotting and ELISA. Interestingly, when keratinocytes were stimulated with a TLR3 agonist, RGRN-305 also demonstrated potent immunomodulatory effects, significantly inhibiting poly(IC)-induced expression of the proinflammatory genes TNFα, IL1B, IL6 and IL23A. Taken together, our data support a role for HSP90 not only in the pathogenesis of psoriasis, but also in broader immune responses. Therefore, HSP90 provides an attractive target for the treatment of psoriasis and other diseases where the innate immune system plays an important role.
