Abstract
Objective: To develop an efficacious and efficient method for treating chronic wounds using "nanosheet" that improves the survival and localization of transplanted cells without prior seeding to optimally derive the regenerative potentials of uncultured stromal vascular fraction (SVF) cells. Approach: We propose a method whereby the wound is covered by uncultured SVF cells using the nanosheet [porous poly(d, l,-lactic acid)] (PDLLA) films) designed to hold cells in a single-cell layer. A chronic wound model was created on 12-month-old db/db mice by inflecting a full-thickness skin excision on their dorsum and was subsequently given either no treatment or a treatment with SVF cells alone (with Tegaderm dressing), nanosheet alone, or nanosheet with SVF cells. Results: The placement of the nanosheet improved the grafted cell retention rate at day 10 timepoint by 5 folds, and the wound area was the smallest in the wounds treated with SVF cells plus nanosheet in comparison to the other groups. Collagen deposition and epidermal growth factor were significantly higher in the wound beds treated with SVF cells with the nanosheet, offering some mechanistic insights. Innovation: Porous poly(d, l,-lactic acid acid) (PDLLA) films or "nanosheet" printed on the nanoscale (1-100 nm in thickness) as a cellular scaffold for cytotherapy for the treatment of chronic wounds. Conclusion: The use of the nanosheet is an effective way to improve the transplanted SVF cell retention and accelerate the overall wound closure.

Abstract
A major obstacle in improving survival in pediatric T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia is understanding how to predict and treat leukemia relapse in the CNS. Leukemia cells are capable of infiltrating and residing within the CNS, primarily the leptomeninges, where they interact with the microenvironment and remain sheltered from systemic treatment. These cells can survive in the CNS, by hijacking the microenvironment and disrupting normal functions, thus promoting malignant transformation. While the protective effects of the bone marrow niche have been widely studied, the mechanisms behind leukemia infiltration into the CNS and the role of the CNS niche in leukemia cell survival remain unknown. We identified a dysregulated gene expression profile in CNS infiltrated T-ALL and CNS relapse, promoting cell survival, chemoresistance, and disease progression. Furthermore, we discovered that interactions between leukemia cells and human meningeal cells induced epigenetic alterations, such as changes in histone modifications, including H3K36me3 levels. These findings are a step towards understanding the molecular mechanisms promoting leukemia cell survival in the CNS microenvironment. Our results highlight genetic and epigenetic alterations induced by interactions between leukemia cells and the CNS niche, which could potentially be utilized as biomarkers to predict CNS infiltration and CNS relapse.

Abstract
Stromal cells support epithelial cell and immune cell homeostasis and play an important role in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) pathogenesis. Here, we quantify the stromal response to inflammation in pediatric IBD and reveal subset-specific inflammatory responses across colon segments and intestinal layers. Using data from a murine dynamic gut injury model and human ex vivo transcriptomic, protein and spatial analyses, we report that PDGFRA+CD142-/low fibroblasts and monocytes/macrophages co-localize in the intestine. In primary human fibroblast-monocyte co-cultures, intestinal PDGFRA+CD142-/low fibroblasts foster monocyte transition to CCR2+CD206+ macrophages through granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). Monocyte-derived CCR2+CD206+ cells from co-cultures have a phenotype similar to intestinal CCR2+CD206+ macrophages from newly diagnosed pediatric IBD patients, with high levels of PD-L1 and low levels of GM-CSF receptor. The study describes subset-specific changes in stromal responses to inflammation and suggests that the intestinal stroma guides intestinal macrophage differentiation.

Abstract
Limited incision facelifts (LIFs) have gained popularity as an alternative to traditional facelift procedures. While surgical techniques vary, these approaches share a common goal: to rejuvenate the face while minimizing scar visibility. Previous studies also suggest that the reduced tissue dissection in LIFs can lead to decreased postoperative swelling, shorter recovery periods, and fewer complications. In this systematic review we delved into the literature on LIFs, shedding light on the various surgical approaches and their respective safety profiles. A systematic review was conducted by independent evaluators who followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis guidelines. A random-effects model was utilized to summarize complications data, and meta-regressions were conducted to analyze associations with operative variables. The analysis encompassed a total of 20 articles, comprising data from 4451 patients. The vast majority (84%) of these patients underwent either local wide-awake surgery or conscious sedation, while the remaining 16% underwent general anesthesia. Our analysis revealed an overall complication frequency of 3.2%, with hematoma being the most common complication (2%), followed by temporary nerve injury (0.2%), and skin necrosis or wounds (0.06%). Notably, hematomas rarely required operating room interventions. Use of drains or tissue sealants was associated with an 86% decrease in complications. Limited incision facelifts can be performed with a low complication rate, utilizing a variety of techniques. Utilization of tissue sealants and drains may limit hematoma formation, which is the most common complication.

Abstract
Hypoxia and hypoxia signaling play an integral role in regulating skeletal muscle physiology. Environmental hypoxia and tissue hypoxia in muscles cue for their appropriate physiological response and adaptation, and cause an array of cellular and metabolic changes. In addition, muscle stem cells (satellite cells), exist in a hypoxic state, and this intrinsic hypoxic state correlates with their quiescence and stemness. The mechanisms of hypoxia-mediated regulation of satellite cells and myogenesis are yet to be characterized, and their seemingly contradicting effects reported leave their exact roles somewhat perplexing. This review summarizes the recent findings on the effect of hypoxia and hypoxia signaling on the key aspects of muscle physiology, namely, stem cell maintenance and myogenesis with a particular attention given to distinguish the intrinsic versus local hypoxia in an attempt to better understand their respective regulatory roles and how their relationship affects the overall response. This review further describes their mechanistic links and their possible implications on the relevant pathologies and therapeutics.

Abstract
Secondary lymphedema occurs in up to 20% of patients after lymphadenectomy performed for the surgical management of tumors involving the breast, prostate, uterus, and skin. Patients develop progressive edema of the affected extremity due to retention of protein-rich lymphatic fluid. Despite compression therapy, patients progress to chronic lymphedema in which noncompressible fibrosis and adipose tissue are deposited within the extremity. The presence of fibrosis led to our hypothesis that rosiglitazone, a PPARγ agonist that inhibits fibrosis, would reduce fibrosis in a mouse model of secondary lymphedema after hind limb lymphadenectomy. In vivo, rosiglitazone reduced fibrosis in the hind limb after lymphadenectomy. Our findings verified that rosiglitazone reestablished the adipogenic features of TGF-β1-treated mesenchymal cells in vitro. Despite this, rosiglitazone led to a reduction in adipose tissue deposition. Single-cell RNA-Seq data obtained from human tissues and flow cytometric and histological evaluation of mouse tissues demonstrated increased presence of PDGFRα+ cells in lymphedema; human tissue analysis verified these cells have the capacity for adipogenic and fibrogenic differentiation. Upon treatment with rosiglitazone, we noted a reduction in the overall quantity of PDGFRα+ cells and LipidTOX+ cells. Our findings provide a framework for treating secondary lymphedema as a condition of fibrosis and adipose tissue deposition, both of which, paradoxically, can be prevented with a pro-adipogenic agent.

Abstract
Introduction Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is one of the most common and aggressive malignancies of the Indo-Gangetic plains. Despite its widespread use in GBC cases, the role of 18-flurodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography-computed tomography ( 18 FDG PET-CT) in the management of this disease is not well defined. In our study, we present the practice trends of the utilization of this investigative modality in our hospital and its benefits in aiding diagnosis, staging, and surveillance for recurrence. Materials and Methods All cases of suspected and biopsy-proven GBCs who underwent PET-CT at our institute between 2016 and 2019 were retrospectively evaluated for the indication of PET-CT testing and its impact on the management of the case. The indications were classified into three categories: (i) staging and metastatic workup, (ii) response assessment post-chemotherapy, and (iii) post-therapy surveillance of patients. Results A total of 79 PET-CT scans were carried out during the study period. PET-CT was used for less than one-third of the total patients of GBC presenting at our center. Initial staging and workup (49%) was the most common indication followed by surveillance (28%) and response assessment (23%). PET-CT had a substantially better sensitivity in detecting distant metastases compared to conventional imaging in both initial workup and during follow-up. PET-CT provided additional information in 42% scans that led to change in the management of the patient. As a response assessment tool PET-CT aided not only in evaluating efficacy of therapy but also for documenting progressive disease for patients on therapy. Conclusion PET-CT is a valuable tool to not only rule out metastatic disease while selecting patients for surgery but also for post-therapy surveillance for recurrence in patients of GBC. Larger prospective studies may help in finally elucidating the exact role of PET-CT in this disease.

Abstract
This document discusses the appropriate initial imaging in both asymptomatic and symptomatic patients with breast implants. For asymptomatic patients with saline implants, no imaging is recommended. If concern for rupture exists, ultrasound is usually appropriate though saline rupture is often clinically evident. The FDA recently recommended patients have an initial ultrasound or MRI examination 5 to 6 years after initial silicone implant surgery and then every 2 to 3 years thereafter. In a patient with unexplained axillary adenopathy with current or prior silicone breast implants, ultrasound and/or mammography are usually appropriate, depending on age. In a patient with concern for silicone implant rupture, ultrasound or MRI without contrast is usually appropriate. In the setting of a patient with breast implants and possible implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma, ultrasound is usually appropriate as the initial imaging. The American College of Radiology Appropriateness Criteria are evidence-based guidelines for specific clinical conditions that are reviewed annually by a multidisciplinary expert panel. The guideline development and revision process support the systematic analysis of the medical literature from peer reviewed journals. Established methodology principles such as Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation or GRADE are adapted to evaluate the evidence. The RAND/UCLA Appropriateness Method User Manual provides the methodology to determine the appropriateness of imaging and treatment procedures for specific clinical scenarios. In those instances where peer reviewed literature is lacking or equivocal, experts may be the primary evidentiary source available to formulate a recommendation.

Abstract
Aging is associated with loss of skeletal muscle regeneration. Differentially regulated vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)A with aging may partially underlies this loss of regenerative capacity. To assess the role of VEGFA in muscle regeneration, young (12-14 weeks old) and old C57BL/6 mice (24,25 months old) are subjected to cryoinjury in the tibialis anterior (TA) muscle to induce muscle regeneration. The average cross-sectional area (CSA) of regenerating myofibers is 33% smaller in old as compared to young (p < 0.01) mice, which correlates with a two-fold loss of muscle VEGFA protein levels (p = 0.02). The capillary density in the TA is similar between the two groups. Young VEGFlo mice, with a 50% decrease in systemic VEGFA activity, exhibit a two-fold reduction in the average regenerating fiber CSA following cryoinjury (p < 0.01) in comparison to littermate controls. ML228, a hypoxia signaling activator known to increase VEGFA levels, augments muscle VEGFA levels and increases average CSA of regenerating fibers in both old mice (25% increase, p < 0.01) and VEGFlo (20% increase, p < 0.01) mice, but not in young or littermate controls. These results suggest that VEGFA may be a therapeutic target in age-related muscle loss.

Abstract
Aging, often considered a result of random cellular damage, can be accurately estimated using DNA methylation profiles, the foundation of pan-tissue epigenetic clocks. Here, we demonstrate the development of universal pan-mammalian clocks, using 11,754 methylation arrays from our Mammalian Methylation Consortium, which encompass 59 tissue types across 185 mammalian species. These predictive models estimate mammalian tissue age with high accuracy (r > 0.96). Age deviations correlate with human mortality risk, mouse somatotropic axis mutations and caloric restriction. We identified specific cytosines with methylation levels that change with age across numerous species. These sites, highly enriched in polycomb repressive complex 2-binding locations, are near genes implicated in mammalian development, cancer, obesity and longevity. Our findings offer new evidence suggesting that aging is evolutionarily conserved and intertwined with developmental processes across all mammals.

Abstract
Aim: Volumetric muscle loss (VML) is a composite loss of skeletal muscle, which heals with fibrosis, minimal muscle regeneration, and incomplete functional recovery. This study investigated whether collagen-glycosaminoglycan scaffolds (CGS) improve functional recovery following VML. Methods: 15 Sprague-Dawley rats underwent either sham injury or bilateral tibialis anterior (TA) VML injury, with or without CGS implantation. Results: In rats with VML injuries treated with CGS, the TA exhibited greater in vivo tetanic forces and in situ twitch and tetanic dorsiflexion forces compared with those in the non-CGS group at 4- and 6-weeks following injury, respectively. Histologically, the VML with CGS group demonstrated reduced fibrosis and increased muscle regeneration. Conclusion: Taken together, CGS implantation has potential augment muscle recovery following VML.

Abstract
Online resources have become a mainstay for health information, and it is vital that such resources maintain accessible literacy levels to empower informed decision making. Previous studies have shown that the online resources regarding post-mastectomy breast reconstruction are of low readability; however, none have evaluated specific online resources regarding the most common procedures within autologous breast reconstruction, limiting analysis to the results of generic searches. This study sought to discover the readability of online, patient-directed resources regarding the Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator (DIEP) and Transverse Rectus Abdominis Muscle (TRAM) flaps, the most utilized autologous flaps in breast reconstruction, using health literacy analysis. We hypothesized that the online materials regarding DIEP and TRAM flaps would yield literacy scores above the 6th-grade reading level, as recommended by the American Medical Association, despite previous literature and readability recommendations. Google searches for "DIEP breast reconstruction" and "TRAM breast reconstruction" were conducted. All patient-directed, non-sponsored websites found within the first three pages of the search underwent analysis using a variety of readability formulae. Both DIEP and TRAM resources were well above the 6th-grade reading level according to every metric used, and there was no significant difference in the reading level between the two procedures. Based on these results, significant work was needed to simplify the online resources to be more understandable for patients; these authors propose one method for such. In addition, the low readability of online resources suggests added emphasis on the need for surgeons to ensure that patients understand the medical information discussed during the presurgical consultations.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle is a complex and highly adaptable tissue. With aging, there is a progressive loss of muscle mass and function, known as sarcopenia, and a reduced capacity for regeneration and repair following injury. A review of the literature shows that the primary mechanisms underlying the age-related loss of muscle mass and the attenuated growth response are multi-factorial and related to alterations in multiple processes, including proteostasis, mitochondrial function, extracellular matrix remodeling, and neuromuscular junction function. Multiple factors influence the rate of sarcopenia, including acute illness and trauma, followed by incomplete recovery and repair. Regeneration and repair of damaged skeletal muscle involve an orchestrated cross-talk between multiple cell populations, including satellite cells, immune cells, and fibro-adipogenic precursor cells. Proof-of-concept studies in mice have demonstrated that reprogramming of this disrupted orchestration, resulting in the normalization of muscle function, may be possible using small molecules that target muscle macrophages. During aging, as well as in muscular dystrophies, disruptions in multiple signaling pathways and in the cross-talk between different cell populations contribute to the failure to properly repair and maintain muscle mass and function.

Abstract
Febrile neutropenia is a common complication during chemotherapy in paediatric cancer care. In this setting, clinical features and current diagnostic tests do not reliably distinguish between bacterial and viral infections. Children with cancer (n = 63) presenting with fever and neutropenia were recruited for extensive microbiological and blood RNA sampling. RNA sequencing was successful in 43 cases of febrile neutropenia. These were classified as having probable bacterial infection (n = 17), probable viral infection (n = 13) and fever of unknown origin (n = 13) based on microbiological defined infections and CRP cut-off levels. RNA expression data with focus on the 2-transcript signature (FAM89A and IFI44L), earlier shown to identify bacterial infections with high specificity and sensitivity, was implemented as a disease risk score. The median disease risk score was higher in the probable bacterial infection group, -0.695 (max 2.795; min -5.478) compared to the probable viral infection group -3.327 (max 0.218; min -7.861), which in ROC analysis corresponded to a sensitivity of 0.88 and specificity of 0.54 with an AUC of 0.80. To further characterise the immune signature, analysis of significantly expressed genes and pathways was performed and upregulation of genes associated to antibacterial responses was present in the group classified as probable bacterial infection. Our results suggest that the 2-transcript signature may have a potential use as a diagnostic tool to identify bacterial infections in immunosuppressed children with febrile neutropenia.

Abstract
In vitro cell line model systems are essential in supporting the research community due to their low cost, uniform culturing conditions, homogeneous biological resources, and easy experimental design to study the cause and effect of a gene or a molecule. Human leukemia 60 (HL60) is an in-vitro hematopoietic model system that has been used for decades to study normal myeloid differentiation and leukemia biology. Here, we show that IMDM supplemented with 20% FBS is an optimal culturing condition and induces effective myeloid differentiation compared with RPMI supplemented with 10% FBS when HL60 is induced with 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (Vit D3) and all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA). The chromatin organization is compacted, and the repressive epigenetic mark H3K27me3 is enhanced upon HL60-mediated terminal differentiation. Differential gene expression analysis obtained from RNA sequencing in HL60 cells during myeloid differentiation showed the induction of pathways involved in epigenetic regulation, myeloid differentiation, and immune regulation. Using high-throughput transcriptomic data (GSE74246), we show the similarities (genes that did not satisfy |log2FC|>1 and FDR<0.05) and differences (FDR <0.05 and |log2FC|>1) between granulocyte-monocyte progenitor vs HL60 cells, Vit D3 induced monocytes (vMono) in HL60 cells vs primary monocytes (pMono), and HL60 cells vs leukemic blasts at the transcriptomic level. We found striking similarities in biological pathways between these comparisons, suggesting that the HL60 model system can be effectively used for studying myeloid differentiation and leukemic aberrations. The differences obtained could be attributed to the fact that the cellular programs of the leukemic cell line and primary cells are different. We validated several gene expression patterns for different comparisons with CD34+ cells derived from cord blood for myeloid differentiation and AML patients. In addition to the current knowledge, our study further reveals the significance of using HL60 cells as in vitro model system under optimal conditions to understand its potential as normal myeloid differentiation model as well as leukemic model at the molecular level.

Abstract
With modern treatment most children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) survive without relapse. However, for children who relapse the prognosis is still poor, especially in children with T-cell phenotype (T-ALL) and remains the major cause of death. The exact mechanism of relapse is currently not known. While contribution of RNA processing alteration has been linked to other hematological malignancies, its contribution in pediatric T-ALL may provide new insights. Almost all human genes express more than one alternative splice isoform. Thus, gene modulation producing a diverse repertoire of the transcriptome and proteome have become a significant molecular marker of cancer and a potential therapeutic vulnerability. To study this, we performed RNA-sequencing analysis on patient-derived samples followed by splice isoform-specific PCR. We uncovered a distinct RNA splice isoform expression pattern characteristic for relapse samples compared to the leukemia samples from the time of diagnosis. We also identified deregulated splicing and apoptosis pathways specific for relapse T-ALL. Moreover, patients with T-ALL displayed pro-survival splice isoform switching favoring pro-survival isoforms compared to normal healthy stem cells. Cumulatively, pro-survival isoform switching and DFFB isoform regulation of SOX2 and MYCN may play a role in T-ALL proliferation and survival, thus serving as a potential therapeutic option.

Abstract
To assess the differential effects of exercise with age, Young (Y, 10-12 weeks) and Old (O, 23-25 months) mice were subjected to regimented treadmill running or no regimented exercise. Y, trained mice experienced a significant increase in maximal distance running, maximal speed of running, and lean muscle mass in comparison to age-matched, untrained controls. O mice did not improve significantly in any of these measures following training. Transcriptome analysis of gastrocnemius from Y mice demonstrated differential regulation of 120 genes with exercise. None of these genes were similarly regulated in the O group. Genes most upregulated following exercise in Y mice were direct targets of the hypoxia signaling pathway. Immunoblotting demonstrated that aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator (ARNT), a critical regulator of hypoxia signaling, increased 3-fold with exercise in Y mice, but this increase was absent in O mice following exercise. To assess whether this loss of ARNT in O muscle impaired the exercise response, we generated a mouse with inducible, skeletal muscle-specific knockout of ARNT (ARNT muscle (m) KO). Following regimented exercise, ARNT mKO mice did not improve maximal distance running, maximal running speed, or lean muscle mass in comparison to untrained ARNT mKO mice. Littermate, age-matched ARNT wild type mice increased significantly in all of these measures following training. Administration of ML228, an ARNT agonist, increased maximal running distance and speed in response to exercise training in O mice. These results suggest that restoration of ARNT and hypoxia signaling may restore the physiologic response to exercise in aging.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stratifying risk of postoperative pulmonary complications after major abdominal surgery allows clinicians to modify risk through targeted interventions and enhanced monitoring. In this study, we aimed to identify and validate prognostic models against a new consensus definition of postoperative pulmonary complications. METHODS We did a systematic review and international external validation cohort study. The systematic review was done in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. We searched MEDLINE and Embase on March 1, 2020, for articles published in English that reported on risk prediction models for postoperative pulmonary complications following abdominal surgery. External validation of existing models was done within a prospective international cohort study of adult patients (≥18 years) undergoing major abdominal surgery. Data were collected between Jan 1, 2019, and April 30, 2019, in the UK, Ireland, and Australia. Discriminative ability and prognostic accuracy summary statistics were compared between models for the 30-day postoperative pulmonary complication rate as defined by the Standardised Endpoints in Perioperative Medicine Core Outcome Measures in Perioperative and Anaesthetic Care (StEP-COMPAC). Model performance was compared using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROCC). FINDINGS In total, we identified 2903 records from our literature search; of which, 2514 (86·6%) unique records were screened, 121 (4·8%) of 2514 full texts were assessed for eligibility, and 29 unique prognostic models were identified. Nine (31·0%) of 29 models had score development reported only, 19 (65·5%) had undergone internal validation, and only four (13·8%) had been externally validated. Data to validate six eligible models were collected in the international external validation cohort study. Data from 11 591 patients were available, with an overall postoperative pulmonary complication rate of 7·8% (n=903). None of the six models showed good discrimination (defined as AUROCC ≥0·70) for identifying postoperative pulmonary complications, with the Assess Respiratory Risk in Surgical Patients in Catalonia score showing the best discrimination (AUROCC 0·700 [95% CI 0·683-0·717]). INTERPRETATION In the pre-COVID-19 pandemic data, variability in the risk of pulmonary complications (StEP-COMPAC definition) following major abdominal surgery was poorly described by existing prognostication tools. To improve surgical safety during the COVID-19 pandemic recovery and beyond, novel risk stratification tools are required. FUNDING British Journal of Surgery Society.

Abstract
Abstract
Medulloblastoma is one of the most common pediatric malignant brain tumors, currently comprising four distinct molecular subgroups: wingless [WNT], sonic hedgehog [SHH], and groups 3-4. Efforts to identify the mechanisms of medulloblastoma development have focused on mapping the extent of the tumor cell heterogeneity within each subgroup. Nevertheless, little is known about the role of the tumor microenvironment (TME) in medulloblastoma progression, particularly in subgroups 3-4, which have the worst prognosis due to metastatic disease. In this study, we performed single-cell transcriptomics on 14 human medulloblastoma samples spanning all molecular subgroups, to uncover novel TME-tumor interactions modulating medulloblastoma progression and metastasis. Unsupervised clustering of all medulloblastoma samples revealed 18 subclusters, including tumor granule neuron progenitors (GNPs) in different stages of differentiation, stromal cells (including oligodendrocyte precursors, mature oligodendrocytes, astrocytes, fibroblasts, endothelial cells and pericytes), myeloid cells (including microglia, monocytes and macrophages) as well as lymphoid cells. To investigate subgroup-specific signatures as well as TME-tumor pathways, we analyzed each subgroup separately. Analysis of supporting stroma cells in groups 3-4 demonstrated the presence of 8 different stroma populations, including a population of tumor-associated endothelial cells. Tumor-associated endothelial and fibroblast populations of groups 3-4 showed the highest expression of genes for vascular remodeling and extracellular matrix degradation, suggesting an active reprogramming of the stroma by tumor GNP cells to support medulloblastoma progression. Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition-like processes that regulate stem cell, invasion and metastatic properties were upregulated in the tumor GNP populations of groups 3-4 compared to SHH and WNT subgroups. Finally, we highlight the presence of the CXCL1-CXCL5/CXCR2 metastasis-associated axis in groups 3-4 medulloblastomas as a potential therapeutic target. Our findings provide biological insights into TME processes for the different subgroups of medulloblastoma and possible new potential therapeutic avenues.

Abstract
Skeletal muscles play important roles in critical body functions and their injury or disease can lead to limitation of mobility and loss of independence. Current treatments result in variable functional recovery, while reconstructive surgery, as the gold-standard approach, is limited due to donor shortage, donor-site morbidity, and limited functional recovery. Skeletal muscle tissue engineering (SMTE) has generated enthusiasm as an alternative solution for treatment of injured tissue and serves as a functional disease model. Recently, bioprinting has emerged as a promising tool for recapitulating the complex and highly organized architecture of skeletal muscles at clinically relevant sizes. Here, skeletal muscle physiology, muscle regeneration following injury, and current treatments following muscle loss are discussed, and then bioprinting strategies implemented for SMTE are critically reviewed. Subsequently, recent advancements that have led to improvement of bioprinting strategies to construct large muscle structures, boost myogenesis in vitro and in vivo, and enhance tissue integration are discussed. Bioinks for muscle bioprinting, as an essential part of any bioprinting strategy, are discussed, and their benefits, limitations, and areas to be improved are highlighted. Finally, the directions the field should expand to make bioprinting strategies more translational and overcome the clinical unmet needs are discussed.

Abstract
Acute and chronic wounds affect millions of people around the world, imposing a growing financial burden on patients and hospitals. Despite the application of current wound management strategies, the physiological healing process is disrupted in many cases, resulting in impaired wound healing. Therefore, more efficient and easy-to-use treatment modalities are needed. In this study, we demonstrate the benefit of in vivo printed, growth factor-eluting adhesive scaffolds for the treatment of full-thickness wounds in a porcine model. A custom-made handheld printer is implemented to finely print gelatin-methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogel containing vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) into the wounds. In vitro and in vivo results show that the in situ GelMA crosslinking induces a strong scaffold adhesion and enables printing on curved surfaces of wet tissues, without the need for any sutures. The scaffold is further shown to offer a sustained release of VEGF, enhancing the migration of endothelial cells in vitro. Histological analyses demonstrate that the administration of the VEGF-eluting GelMA scaffolds that remain adherent to the wound bed significantly improves the quality of healing in porcine wounds. The introduced in vivo printing strategy for wound healing applications is translational and convenient to use in any place, such as an operating room, and does not require expensive bioprinters or imaging modalities.

Abstract
The two estrogen receptors ERα and ERβ are nuclear receptors that bind estrogen (E2) and function as ligand-inducible transcription factors. They are homologues and can form dimers with each other and bind to the same estrogen-response element motifs in the DNA. ERα drives breast cancer growth whereas ERβ has been reported to be anti-proliferative. However, they are rarely expressed in the same cells, and it is not fully investigated to which extent their functions are different because of inherent differences or because of different cellular context. To dissect their similarities and differences, we here generated a novel estrogen-dependent cell model where ERα homodimers can be directly compared to ERβ homodimers within the identical cellular context. By using CRISPR-cas9 to delete ERα in breast cancer MCF7 cells with Tet-Off-inducible ERβ expression, we generated MCF7 cells that express ERβ but not ERα. MCF7 (ERβ only) cells exhibited regulation of estrogen-responsive targets in a ligand-dependent manner. We demonstrated that either ER was required for MCF7 proliferation, but while E2 increased proliferation via ERα, it reduced proliferation through a G2/M arrest via ERβ. The two ERs also impacted migration differently. In absence of ligand, ERβ increased migration, but upon E2 treatment, ERβ reduced migration. E2 via ERα, on the other hand, had no significant impact on migration. RNA sequencing revealed that E2 regulated a transcriptome of around 800 genes via each receptor, but over half were specific for either ERα or ERβ (417 and 503 genes, respectively). Functional gene ontology enrichment analysis reinforced that E2 regulated cell proliferation in opposite directions depending on the ER, and that ERβ specifically impacted extracellular matrix organization. We corroborated that ERβ bound to cis-regulatory chromatin of its unique proposed migration-related direct targets ANXA9 and TFAP2C. In conclusion, we demonstrate that within the same cellular context, the two ERs regulate cell proliferation in the opposite manner, impact migration differently, and each receptor also regulates a distinct set of target genes in response to E2. The developed cell model provides a novel and valuable resource to further complement the mechanistic understanding of the two different ER isoforms.

Abstract
Exercise is beneficial for physical functions across all ages. However, the response to exercise shifts from anabolism, resulting in limited gain of muscle strength and endurance. These changes likely reflect age-related alterations in transcriptional response underlying the muscular adaptation to exercise. The exact changes in gene expression accompanying exercise, however, are largely unknown, and elucidating them is of a great clinical interest for optimizing the exercise-based therapies for sarcopenia. In order to characterize the exercise-induced transcriptomic changes in aged muscle, a paired-end RNA sequencing was performed on the rRNA-depleted total RNA extracted from the gastrocnemius muscles of 24 months-old mice after 8 weeks of regimented exercise (exercise group) or sedentary activities (sedentary group). Differential gene expression analysis revealed upregulations in the group of genes involved in neurotransmission. In particular, genes encoding the transporters and receptor components of glutaminergic transmission were significantly upregulated in exercised muscles, as exemplified by Gria 1, Gria 2 and Grin2c encoding glutamate receptor 1, 2 and 2C respectively, Grin1 and Grin2b encoding N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs), Nptx1 responsible for glutaminergic receptor clustering, and Slc1a2 and Slc17a7 regulating synaptic uptake of glutamate. These changes were accompanied by an increase in post-synaptic NMDARs and acetylcholine receptors (AChRs), as well as their innervation at neuromuscular junctions (NMJs). These results suggest that neural responses predominate aged skeletal muscle following exercise, and indicate a possibility that glutaminergic transmission at NMJs may be responsible for synaptic protection and neural remodeling accompanying the exercise-induced functional enhancement in aged skeletal muscle.

Abstract
To assess the differential effects of exercise with age, Young (Y, 10-12 weeks) and Old (O, 23-25 months) mice were subjected to regimented treadmill running or no regimented exercise. Y, trained mice experienced a significant increase in maximal distance running, maximal speed of running, and lean muscle mass in comparison to age-matched, untrained controls. O mice did not improve significantly in any of these measures following training. Transcriptome analysis of gastrocnemius from Y mice demonstrated differential regulation of 120 genes with exercise. None of these genes were similarly regulated in the O group. Genes most upregulated following exercise in Y mice were direct targets of the hypoxia signaling pathway. Immunoblotting demonstrated that aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator (ARNT), a critical regulator of hypoxia signaling, increased 3-fold with exercise in Y mice, but this increase was absent in O mice following exercise. To assess whether this loss of ARNT in O muscle impaired the exercise response, we generated a mouse with inducible, skeletal muscle-specific knockout of ARNT (ARNT muscle (m) KO). Following regimented exercise, ARNT mKO mice did not improve maximal distance running, maximal running speed, or lean muscle mass in comparison to untrained ARNT mKO mice. Littermate, age-matched ARNT wild type mice increased significantly in all of these measures following training. Administration of ML228, an ARNT agonist, increased maximal running distance and speed in response to exercise training in O mice. These results suggest that restoration of ARNT and hypoxia signaling may restore the physiologic response to exercise in aging.

Abstract
Poor cellular spreading, proliferation, and infiltration, due to the dense biomaterial networks, have limited the success of most thick hydrogel-based scaffolds for tissue regeneration. Here, inspired by whipped cream production widely used in pastries, hydrogel-based foam bioinks are developed for bioprinting of scaffolds. Upon cross-linking, a multiscale and interconnected porous structure, with pores ranging from few to several hundreds of micrometers, is formed within the printed constructs. The effect of the process parameters on the pore size distribution and mechanical and rheological properties of the bioinks is determined. The developed foam bioinks can be easily printed using both conventional and custom-built handheld bioprinters. In addition, the foam inks are adhesive upon in situ cross-linking and are biocompatible. The subcutaneous implantation of scaffolds formed from the engineered foam bioinks showed their rapid integration and vascularization in comparison with their non-porous hydrogel counterparts. In addition, in vivo application of the foam bioink into the non-healing muscle defect of a murine model of volumetric muscle loss resulted in a significant functional recovery and higher muscle forces at 8 weeks post injury compared with non-treated controls.

Abstract
There is limited experience with facial retransplantation (fRT). We report on the management of facial retransplantation in a facial vascularized composite allotransplant recipient following irreversible allograft loss 88 months after the first transplant. Chronic antibody-mediated rejection and recurrent cellular rejection resulted in a deteriorated first allograft and the patient underwent retransplantation. We summarize the events between the two transplantations, focusing on the final rejection episode. We describe the surgical technique of facial retransplantation, the immunological and psychosocial management, and the 6-month postoperative outcomes. Removal of the old allograft and inset of the new transplant were done in one operation. The donor and recipient were a good immunological match. The procedure was technically complex, requiring more proximal arterial anastomoses and an interposition vein graft. During the first and second transplantation, the facial nerve was coapted at the level of the branches. There was no hyperacute rejection in the immediate postoperative phase. Outcomes 6 months postoperatively are promising. We provide proof-of-concept that facial retransplantation is a viable option for patients who suffer irreversible facial vascularized composite allograft loss.

Abstract
Hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, and adiposity are the main factors that cause inflammation in type 2 diabetes due to excessive ROS production, leading to late complications. To counteract the effects of increased free radical production, we searched for a compound with effective antioxidant properties that can induce coenzyme Q biosynthesis without affecting normal cellular functions. Tocotrienols are members of the vitamin E family, well-known as efficient antioxidants that are more effective than tocopherols. Deh-T3β is a modified form of the naturally occurring tocotrienol-β. The synthesis of this compound involves the sequential modification of geranylgeraniol. In this study, we investigated the effects of this compound in different experimental models of diabetes complications. Deh-T3β was found to possess multifaceted capacities. In addition to enhanced wound healing, deh-T3β improved kidney and liver functions, reduced liver steatosis, and improved heart recovery after ischemia and insulin sensitivity in adipose tissue in a mice model of type 2 diabetes. Deh-T3β exerts these positive effects in several organs of the diabetic mice without reducing the non-fasting blood glucose levels, suggesting that both its antioxidant properties and improvement in mitochondrial function are involved, which are central to reducing diabetes complications.

Abstract
Exercise is believed to be beneficial for skeletal muscle functions across all ages. Regimented exercise is often prescribed as an effective treatment/prophylaxis for age-related loss of muscle mass and function, known as sarcopenia, and plays an important role in the maintenance of mobility and functional independence in the elderly. However, response to exercise declines with aging, resulting in limited gain of muscle strength and endurance. These changes likely reflect age-dependent alterations in transcriptional response underlying the muscular adaptation to exercise. The exact changes in gene expression accompanying exercise, however, are largely unknown, and elucidating them is of a great clinical interest for understanding and optimizing the exercise-based therapies for sarcopenia. In order to characterize the exercise-induced transcriptomic changes in aged muscle, a paired-end RNA sequencing was performed on rRNA-depleted total RNA extracted from the gastrocnemius muscles of 24 months-old mice after 8 weeks of regimented exercise (exercise group) or no formal exercise program (sedentary group). Differential gene expression analysis of aged skeletal muscle revealed upregulations in the group of genes involved in neurotransmission and neuroexcitation, as well as equally notable absence of anabolic gene upregulations in the exercise group. In particular, genes encoding the transporters and receptor components of glutaminergic transmission were significantly upregulated in exercised muscles, as exemplified by Gria 1, Gria 2 and Grin2c encoding glutamate receptor 1, 2 and 2C respectively, Grin1 and Grin2b encoding N-methyl-d-aspartate receptors (NMDARs), Nptx1 responsible for glutaminergic receptor clustering, and Slc1a2 and Slc17a7 regulating synaptic uptake of glutamate. These changes were accompanied by an increase in the post-synaptic density of NMDARs and acetylcholine receptors (AChRs), as well as their innervation at neuromuscular junctions (NMJs). These results suggest that neural responses predominate the adaptive response of aged skeletal muscle to exercise, and indicate a possibility that glutaminergic transmission at NMJs may be present and responsible for synaptic protection and neural remodeling accompanying the exercise-induced functional enhancement in aged skeletal muscle. In addition, the absence of upregulations in the anabolic pathways highlights them as the area of potential pharmacological targeting for optimizing exercise-led sarcopenia therapy.

Abstract
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen that causes thousands of deaths every year in part due to its ability to form biofilms composed of bacteria embedded in a matrix of self-secreted extracellular polysaccharides (EPS), e-DNA, and proteins. In chronic wounds, biofilms are exposed to the host extracellular matrix, of which collagen is a major component. How bacterial EPS interacts with host collagen and whether this interaction affects biofilm viscoelasticity is not well understood. Since physical disruption of biofilms is often used in their removal, knowledge of collagen's effects on biofilm viscoelasticity may enable new treatment strategies that are better tuned to biofilms growing in host environments. In this work, biofilms are grown in the presence of different concentrations of collagen that mimic in vivo conditions. In order to explore collagen's interaction with EPS, nine strains of P. aeruginosa with different patterns of EPS production were used to grow biofilms. Particle tracking microrheology was used to characterize the mechanical development of biofilms over two days. Collagen is found to decrease biofilm compliance and increase relative elasticity regardless of the EPS present in the system. However, this effect is minimized when biofilms overproduce EPS. Collagen appears to become a de facto component of the EPS, through binding to bacteria or physical entanglement.

Abstract
Cryoinjury, or injury due to freezing, is a method of creating reproducible, local injuries in skeletal muscle. This method allows studying the regenerative response following muscle injuries in vivo, thus enabling the evaluation of local and systemic factors that influence the processes of myofiber regeneration. Cryoinjuries are applicable to the study of various modalities of muscle injury, particularly non-traumatic and traumatic injuries, without a loss of substantial volume of muscle mass. Cryoinjury requires only simple instruments and has the advantage over other methods that the extent of the lesion can be easily adjusted and standardized according to the duration of contact with the freezing instrument. The regenerative response can be evaluated histologically by the average maturity of regenerating myofibers as indicated by the cross-sectional areas of myofibers with centrally located nuclei. Accordingly, cryoinjury is regarded as one of the most reliable and easily accessible methods for simulating muscle injuries in studies of muscle regeneration.

Abstract
Liver X receptors (LXRs) and their ligands are potent regulators of midbrain dopaminergic (mDA) neurogenesis and differentiation. However, the molecular mechanisms by which LXRs control these functions remain to be elucidated. Here, we perform a combined transcriptome and chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) analysis of midbrain cells after LXR activation, followed by bioinformatic analysis to elucidate the transcriptional networks controlling mDA neurogenesis. Our results identify the basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor sterol regulatory element binding protein 1 (SREBP1) as part of a cluster of proneural transcription factors in radial glia and as a regulator of transcription factors controlling mDA neurogenesis, such as Foxa2. Moreover, loss- and gain-of-function experiments in vitro and in vivo demonstrate that Srebf1 is both required and sufficient for mDA neurogenesis. Our data, thus, identify Srebf1 as a central player in mDA neurogenesis.

Abstract
Extremity skeletal muscle injuries result in substantial disability. Current treatments fail to recoup muscle function, but properly designed and implemented tissue engineering and regenerative medicine techniques can overcome this challenge. In this study, a nanoengineered, growth factor-eluting bioink that utilizes Laponite nanoclay for the controlled release of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and a GelMA hydrogel for a supportive and adhesive scaffold that can be crosslinked in vivo is presented. The bioink is delivered with a partially automated handheld printer for the in vivo formation of an adhesive and 3D scaffold. The effect of the controlled delivery of VEGF alone or paired with adhesive, supportive, and fibrilar architecture has not been studied in volumetric muscle loss (VML) injuries. Upon direct in vivo printing, the constructs are adherent to skeletal muscle and sustained release of VEGF. The in vivo printing of muscle ink in a murine model of VML injury promotes functional muscle recovery, reduced fibrosis, and increased anabolic response compared to untreated mice. The in vivo construction of a therapeutic-eluting 3D scaffold paves the way for the immediate treatment of a variety of soft tissue traumas.

Abstract
A major impediment preventing normal wound healing is insufficient vascularization, which causes hypoxia, poor metabolic support, and dysregulated physiological responses to injury. To combat this, the delivery of angiogenic factors, such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), has been shown to provide modest improvement in wound healing. Here, the importance of specialty delivery systems is explored in controlling wound bed drug distribution and consequently improving healing rate and quality. Two intradermal drug delivery systems, miniaturized needle arrays (MNAs) and liquid jet injectors (LJIs), are evaluated to compare effective VEGF delivery into the wound bed. The administered drug's penetration depth and distribution in tissue are significantly different between the two technologies. These systems' capability for efficient drug delivery is first confirmed in vitro and then assessed in vivo. While topical administration of VEGF shows limited effectiveness, intradermal delivery of VEGF in a diabetic murine model accelerates wound healing. To evaluate the translational feasibility of the strategy, the benefits of VEGF delivery using MNAs are assessed in a porcine model. The results demonstrate enhanced angiogenesis, reduced wound contraction, and increased regeneration. These findings show the importance of both therapeutics and delivery strategy in wound healing.

Abstract
The AP-1 member Fra-1 is overexpressed in TNBC and plays crucial roles in tumor progression and treatment resistance. In a previous large-scale screen, we identified PARP1 to be among 118 proteins that interact with endogenous chromatin-bound Fra-1 in TNBC cells. PARP1 inhibitor (olaparib) is currently in clinical use for treatment of BRCA-mutated TNBC breast cancer. Here, we demonstrate that the Fra-1-PARP1 interaction impacts the efficacy of olaparib treatment. We show that PARP1 interacts with and downregulates Fra-1, thereby reducing AP-1 transcriptional activity. Olaparib treatment, or silencing of PARP1, consequently, increases Fra-1 levels and enhances its transcriptional activity. Increased Fra-1 can have adverse effect, including treatment resistance. We also found that a large fraction of PARP1-regulated genes was dependent on Fra-1. We show that by inhibiting Fra-1/AP-1, non-BRCA-mutated TNBC cells can become sensitized to olaparib treatment. We identify that high PARP1 expression is indicative of a poor clinical outcome in breast cancer patients overall (P = 0.01), but not for HER-2 positive patients. In conclusion, by exploring the functionality of the Fra-1 and PARP1 interaction, we propose that targeting Fra-1 could serve as a combinatory therapeutic approach to improve olaparib treatment outcome for TNBC patients.

Abstract
Dendritic cells (DCs) and monocytes are crucial mediators of innate and adaptive immune responses during viral infection, but misdirected responses by these cells may contribute to immunopathology. Here, we performed high-dimensional flow cytometry-analysis focusing on mononuclear phagocyte (MNP) lineages in SARS-CoV-2-infected patients with moderate and severe COVID-19. We provide a deep and comprehensive map of the MNP landscape in COVID-19. A redistribution of monocyte subsets toward intermediate monocytes and a general decrease in circulating DCs was observed in response to infection. Severe disease coincided with the appearance of monocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cell-like cells and a higher frequency of pre-DC2. Furthermore, phenotypic alterations in MNPs, and their late precursors, were cell-lineage-specific and associated either with the general response against SARS-CoV-2 or COVID-19 severity. This included an interferon-imprint in DC1s observed in all patients and a decreased expression of the coinhibitory molecule CD200R in pre-DCs, DC2s, and DC3 subsets of severely sick patients. Finally, unsupervised analysis revealed that the MNP profile, alone, pointed to a cluster of COVID-19 nonsurvivors. This study provides a reference for the MNP response to SARS-CoV-2 infection and unravels mononuclear phagocyte dysregulations associated with severe COVID-19.

Abstract
Pandemics are associated with increased rates of intimate partner violence (IPV). IPV-related physical abuse is most commonly inflicted through craniofacial assault and upper extremity injury. Plastic surgeons are frequently consulted for recommendations in the management of head-and-neck and hand trauma, thereby are uniquely positioned to encounter patients who have experienced IPV. However, IPV training is not routinely offered in surgical education. We provide a review of the increasing prevalence of IPV during the COVID-19 pandemic and its pertinence to plastic surgery consultation in the emergency room. This article aims to increase providers' confidence in recognizing IPV-suspicious injuries and propose an educational, interactive tool for discussing IPV with patients.

Abstract
Hypoxia signaling is essential for angiogenesis and metabolic regulation during exercise. Our previous study has demonstrated an age-related loss of ARNT resulting in limited muscle regeneration. To explore the role of hypoxia signaling in physiological performance in relation to aging, we generated a mouse model with skeletal muscle-specific knockout of ARNT (ARNT mKO). ARNT mKO and ARNT WT mice were subjected to a sedentary activity or treadmill running exercise regime at an increasing speed of 8-12 m/min for 40 minutes, three times weekly over the course of 8 weeks. ARNT levels was 3-fold lower in old mice compared to young. The exercised WT mice exhibited 52% greater increase over the sedentary group in exercise endurance as measured by the maximum running distance (490.92±154.28 vs 237.76±135.19m, p<0.01). In contrast, ARNT mKO mice did not benefit from exercise (231.85±198.61 vs 167.27±136.56m, p=0.41). The maximum running speed was severely restricted in the trained ARNT mKO mice versus WT (16±1.63 m/min vs 26.67±2.45 m/min, p<0.001). Cross-sectional area of myofibers increased significantly following exercise in WT mice (2270 vs 2960 □m2, p=0,015) indicating muscle hypertrophic response, while no change was observed in the ARNT mKO group (2101 vs 2378□m2, p=0,21). Further, exercise increased femoral artery blood flow by 41% in ARNT WT mice, but not in ARNT mKO mice (898.96±52.33 vs 802.86±48.43, p=0.20). These data suggest that ARNT is essential for physiological response to exercise

Abstract
The ability of skeletal muscle to regenerate declines significantly with aging. The expression of aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator (ARNT), a critical component of the hypoxia signaling pathway, was less abundant in skeletal muscle of old (23‐25 months old) mice. This loss of ARNT was associated with decreased levels of Notch1 intracellular domain (N1ICD) and impaired regenerative response to injury in comparison to young (2‐3 months old) mice. Knockdown of ARNT in a primary muscle cell line impaired differentiation in vitro. Skeletal muscle‐specific ARNT deletion in young mice resulted in decreased levels of whole muscle N1ICD and limited muscle regeneration. Administration of a systemic hypoxia pathway activator (ML228), which simulates the actions of ARNT, rescued skeletal muscle regeneration in both old and ARNT‐deleted mice. These results suggest that the loss of ARNT in skeletal muscle is partially responsible for diminished myogenic potential in aging and activation of hypoxia signaling holds promise for rescuing regenerative activity in old muscle.

Abstract
Abstract
Fra-1 (FOSL1), a member of the activator protein 1 (AP-1) transcription factor complex, is overexpressed in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and plays crucial roles in tumor progression and treatment resistance. We have previously identified 118 proteins that interact with endogenous chromatin-bound Fra-1 in TNBC cells in a large screen, and this included PARP1 (Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1). PARP1 inhibitor olaparib is currently in use for treatment of BRCA-mutated TNBC breast cancer. Here, we corroborate that PARP1 interacts with Fra-1, and we also find that PARP1 downregulates Fra-1 and reduces AP-1 transcriptional activity. Inhibition of PARP1, on the other hand, increases Fra-1 levels and enhances AP-1 transcriptional activity. Further, we find that upon inhibition of Fra-1, TNBC cells become sensitized to olaparib treatment. By comparing the Fra-1 and PARP1 regulated transcriptomes with Fra-1 chromatin binding site, we determine that a large fraction of PARP1-regulated genes is dependent on Fra-1. Finally, we show that PARP1 protein levels significantly correlate with Fra-1 in clinical breast cancer tumors, and we identify that while high PARP1 expression is indicative of a poor clinical outcome in breast cancer patients overall, it is not in basal-like tumors. In conclusion, by exploring the functionality of the Fra-1 and PARP-1 interaction, we propose that targeting Fra-1 could serve as a therapeutic approach to improve olaparib treatment outcome for TNBC patients.

Abstract
Infection is a common and serious complication of cancer treatment in children that often presents as febrile neutropenia (FN). Gene-expression profiling techniques can reveal transcriptional signatures that discriminate between viral, bacterial and asymptomatic infections in otherwise healthy children. Here, we examined whether gene-expression profiling was feasible in children with FN who were undergoing cancer treatment. The blood transcriptome of the children (n = 63) was investigated at time of FN diagnosed as viral, bacterial, co-infection or unknown etiology, respectively, and compared to control samples derived from 12 of the patients following the FN episode. RNA sequencing was successful in 43 (68%) of the FN episodes. Only two genes were significantly differentially expressed in the bacterial versus the control group. Significantly up-regulated genes in patients with the other three etiologies versus the control group were enriched with cellular processes related to proliferation and cellular stress response, with no clear enrichment with innate responses to pathogens. Among the significantly down-regulated genes, a few clustered into pathways connected to responses to infection. In the present study of children during cancer treatment, the blood transcriptome was not suitable for determining the etiology of FN because of too few circulating immune cells for reliable gene expression analysis.

Abstract
Loss of muscle mass and strength with aging, also termed sarcopenia, results in a loss of mobility and independence. Exercise, particularly resistance training, has proven to be beneficial in counteracting the aging-associated loss of skeletal muscle mass and function. However, the anabolic response to exercise in old age is not as robust, with blunted improvements in muscle size, strength, and function in comparison to younger individuals. This review provides an overview of several physiological changes which may contribute to age-related loss of muscle mass and decreased anabolism in response to resistance training in the elderly. Additionally, the following supplemental therapies with potential to synergize with resistance training to increase muscle mass are discussed: nutrition, creatine, anti-inflammatory drugs, testosterone, and growth hormone (GH). Although these interventions hold some promise, further research is necessary to optimize the response to exercise in elderly patients.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle has the remarkable ability to modulate its mass in response to changes in nutritional input, functional utilization, systemic disease, and age. This is achieved by the coordination of transcriptional and post-transcriptional networks and the signaling cascades balancing anabolic and catabolic processes with energy and nutrient availability. The extent to which alternative splicing regulates these signaling networks is uncertain. Here we investigate the role of the RNA-binding protein hnRNP-U on the expression and splicing of genes and the signaling processes regulating skeletal muscle hypertrophic growth. Muscle-specific Hnrnpu knockout (mKO) mice develop an adult-onset myopathy characterized by the selective atrophy of glycolytic muscle, the constitutive activation of Akt, increases in cellular and metabolic stress gene expression, and changes in the expression and splicing of metabolic and signal transduction genes. These findings link Hnrnpu with the balance between anabolic signaling, cellular and metabolic stress, and physiological growth. Hnrnpu mKO mice develop adult-onset myopathy with selective glycolytic muscle atrophy Akt is constitutively active in the atrophied muscles of Hnrnpu mKO mice Hnrnpu mutants show altered gene expression and alternative splicing patterns Induction of genes associated with cellular and metabolic stress
