Abstract
The role of monoclonal antibodies as vehicles to deliver payloads has evolved as a powerful tool in cancer therapy in recent years. The clinical development of therapeutic antibody conjugates with precise payloads holds great promise for targeted therapeutic interventions. The use of affinity-peptide mediated functionalization of native off-the-shelf antibodies offers an effective approach to selectively modify IgG antibodies with a drug-antibody ratio (DAR) of 2. Here, we report the traceless, peptide-directed attachment of two hydroxylamines to native IgGs followed by chemoselective potassium acyltrifluoroborate (KAT) ligation with quinolinium acyltrifluoroborates (QATs), which provide enhanced ligation rates with hydroxylamines under physiological conditions. By applying KAT ligation to the modified antibodies, conjugation of small molecules, proteins, and oligonucleotides to off-the-shelf IgGs proceeds efficiently, in good yields, and with simultaneous cleavage of the affinity peptide-directing moiety.

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has shown the need to develop effective therapeutics in preparedness for further epidemics of virus infections that pose a significant threat to human health. As a natural compound antiviral candidate, we focused on α-dystroglycan, a highly glycosylated basement membrane protein that links the extracellular matrix to the intracellular cytoskeleton. Here we show that the N-terminal fragment of α-dystroglycan (α-DGN), as produced in E. coli in the absence of post-translational modifications, blocks infection of SARS-CoV-2 in cell culture, human primary gut organoids and the lungs of transgenic mice expressing the human receptor angiotensin I-converting enzyme 2 (hACE2). Prophylactic and therapeutic administration of α-DGN reduced SARS-CoV-2 lung titres and protected the mice from respiratory symptoms and death. Recombinant α-DGN also blocked infection of a wide range of enveloped viruses including the four Dengue virus serotypes, influenza A virus, respiratory syncytial virus, tick-borne encephalitis virus, but not human adenovirus, a non-enveloped virus in vitro. This study establishes soluble recombinant α-DGN as a broad-band, natural compound candidate therapeutic against enveloped viruses.

Abstract
For virus infection of new host cells, the disassembly of the protective outer protein shell (capsid) is a critical step, but the mechanisms and host-virus interactions underlying the dynamic, active, and regulated uncoating process are largely unknown. Here, we develop an experimentally supported, multiscale kinetics model that elucidates mechanisms of influenza A virus (IAV) uncoating in cells. Biophysical modeling demonstrates that interactions between capsid M1 proteins, host histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6), and molecular motors can physically break the capsid in a tug-of-war mechanism. Biochemical analysis and biochemical-biophysical modeling identify unanchored ubiquitin chains as essential and allow robust prediction of uncoating efficiency in cells. Remarkably, the different infectivity of two clinical strains can be ascribed to a single amino acid variation in M1 that affects binding to HDAC6. By identifying crucial modules of viral infection kinetics, the mechanisms and models presented here could help formulate novel strategies for broad-range antiviral treatment.

Abstract
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) remodels the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to form replication organelles, leading to ER stress and unfolded protein response (UPR). However, the role of specific UPR pathways in infection remains unclear. Here, we found that SARS-CoV-2 infection causes marginal activation of signaling sensor IRE1α leading to its phosphorylation, clustering in the form of dense ER-membrane rearrangements with embedded membrane openings, and XBP1 splicing. By investigating the factors regulated by IRE1α-XBP1 during SARS-CoV-2 infection, we identified stress-activated kinase NUAK2 as a novel host-dependency factor for SARS-CoV-2, HCoV-229E, and MERS-CoV entry. Reducing NUAK2 abundance or kinase activity impaired SARS-CoV-2 particle binding and internalization by decreasing cell surface levels of viral receptors and viral trafficking likely by modulating the actin cytoskeleton. IRE1α-dependent NUAK2 levels were elevated in SARS-CoV-2-infected and bystander non-infected cells, promoting viral spread by maintaining ACE2 cell surface levels and facilitating virion binding to bystander cells.

Abstract
Viruses are genetically and structurally diverse, and outnumber cells by orders of magnitude. They can cause acute and chronic infections, suppress, or exacerbate immunity, or dysregulate survival and growth of cells. To identify chemical agents with pro- or antiviral effects we conducted arrayed high-content image-based multi-cycle infection screens of 1,280 mainly FDA-approved compounds with three human viruses, rhinovirus (RV), influenza A virus (IAV), and herpes simplex virus (HSV) differing in genome organization, composition, presence of an envelope, and tropism. Based on Z’-factors assessing screening quality and Z-scores ranking individual compounds, we identified potent inhibitors and enhancers of infection: the RNA mutagen 5-Azacytidine against RV-A16; the broad-spectrum antimycotic drug Clotrimazole inhibiting IAV-WSN; the chemotherapeutic agent Raltitrexed blocking HSV-1; and Clobetasol enhancing HSV-1. Remarkably, the topical antiseptic compound Aminacrine, which is clinically used against bacterial and fungal agents, inhibited all three viruses. Our data underscore the versatility and potency of image-based, full cycle virus propagation assays in cell-based screenings for antiviral agents.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
A novel cryoballoon system (POLARx) has emerged and its efficacy regarding pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) has been already investigated. On the other hand, cryoballoon ablation of left atrial (LA) roof has been performed using a conventional cryoballoon system (Arctic Front Advance Pro [AFA-Pro]) in addition to PVI. However, cryoballoon ablation of LA roof with POLARx has not been investigated yet.
Methods
We performed cryoballoon ablation of LA roof with POLARx in 22 patients after we achieved PVI. After the cryoballoon ablation, complete conduction block at LA roof and isolation of all PVs were confirmed by creating an activation map during high right atrium pacing. If they could not be obtained with solely a cryoballoon, touch up ablation with radiofrequency ablation was permitted. The procedural data during ablation with POLARx was compared with those during ablation with AFA-Pro we had performed in a historical cohort of patients (n=46).
Results
Complete conduction block at LA roof without touch up ablation could be obtained in all the patients in POLARx group and 44 (95.7%) patients in AFA-Pro group. Total procedure time was almost similar in both groups (164.2±35.4 min for POLARx vs 180.3±35.4 min for AFA-Pro, p=0.10). During LA roof line ablation, nadir balloon temperature was significantly lower in POLARx group (right side: −53.6±4.4°C for POLARx vs −45.6±4.6°C for AFA-Pro, p<0.01, central part: −56.4±4.3°C for POLARx vs −46.0±3.7°C for AFA-Pro, p<0.01, left side: −55.1±3.5°C for POLARx vs −45.7±5.3°C for AFA-Pro, p<0.01), and balloon temperature reached −40°C earlier in POLARx (right side: 30.7±8.9 sec for POLARx vs 78.0±39.8 sec for AFA-Pro, p<0.01, central part: 30.6±9.3 sec for POLARx vs 65.9±33.3 sec for AFA-Pro, p<0.01, left side: 30.4±4.2 sec for POLARx vs 78.8±49.6 sec for AFA-Pro, p<0.01). Total freezing time required for LA roof line ablation was significantly shorter in POLARx group (589.3±163.6 sec for POLARx vs 877.5±191.7 sec for AFA-Pro, p<0.01).The scar area created after LA roof line ablation was similar in both groups (9.3±4.1 cm2 for POLARx vs 11.0±4.8 cm2 for AFA-Pro, p=0.23).
Conclusion
Complete conduction block at LA roof could be obtained after cryoballoon ablation with POLARx, in the same way as AFA-Pro. Lower nadir balloon temperature could be expected in shorter freezing time during LA roof line ablation in using POLARx compared with AFA-Pro.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Although pulmonary vein isolation is the cornerstone of atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation, concomitant cryoballoon ablation of left atrial (LA) roof has been expected to improve clinical outcomes after ablation. We demonstrate characteristics and efficacy of cryoballoon ablation of LA roof through our experiences from a large volume of procedures.
Methods
We had performed cryoballoon ablation of LA roof in 1036 procedures including 202 redo procedures in AF patients since June 2016. Among these procedures, we analyzed 834 patients (309 paroxysmal AF) who had undergone de novo ablation for AF. We confirmed whether the complete conduction block of LA roof line was obtained after the ablation.
Results
LA roof line block was obtained in 767 patients (92.0%) without touch up ablation with a radiofrequency catheter (Group A). LA diameter (LAD) was significantly smaller (43.6±6.6mm vs 47.4±7.5mm, p<0.01) and body mass index (BMI) was significantly lower (24.9±4.0kg/m2 vs 26.3±4.6kg/m2, p=0.01) in those in Group A compared with those without LA roof line block after cryoballoon ablation (Group B). Compared with those in Group B, cryoballoon application number of LA roof (4.1±1.2 vs 4.5±1.6, p<0.01) and mean nadir of cryoballoon temperature during cryoballoon ablation of LA roof (−44.5±5.6°C vs −40.5±7.5°C, p<0.01) were significantly lower in those in Group A. Regarding cryoballoon application number, the number of the cryoballoon application in which a cryoballoon was applied to LA roof with the guiding catheter located in a left superior pulmonary vein (LSPV) was significantly lower in patients in Group A (1.3±0.8 vs 1.6±1.0, p=0.02), and when the number was less than 2, mean nadir of cryoballoon temperature was significantly lower compared with when it was 2 or more than 2 (−44.8±5.8°C vs −42.8±5.6°C, p<0.01). Among those refer to first ablation procedures, one-year Kaplan-Meier atrial arrhythmias free rate estimates, 80.6% for those in Group A and 59.0% for those in Group B (p<0.01). Multivariate analysis identified LA roof line block without touch up ablation as one of the predictors of atrial arrhythmias recurrences. Atrial tachycardia depending on LA roof occurred after cryoballoon ablation of LA roof in 8 patients, although LA roof line block without touch up ablation could be obtained in the index ablation procedure in 6 patients among them.
Conclusion
LA roof line block could be obtained by solely cryoballoon with a reasonable success rate, especially in those with smaller LAD and lower BMI. To obtaine LA roof line block, cryoballoon ablation with the guiding catheter located in LSPV is preferable. LA roof line block without touch up ablation brings better clinical outcomes in those who underwent cryoballoon ablation of LA roof.

Abstract
There is a lack of evidence regarding the optimal intra-operative glycaemic level of patients with ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency to prevent cerebral oedema due to protein catabolism and hyperammonemia. We describe a case of a two-year-old girl with ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency who underwent cardiac surgery requiring cardiopulmonary bypass. A high-dose dextrose infusion to prevent protein catabolism was given throughout surgery, which caused uncontrollable hyperglycaemia unresponsive to high-dose insulin administration. Factors contributing to the hyperglycaemia may have included surgical stress, steroid administration and hypothermia. During invasive surgery, anaesthetists should carefully adjust the rates of dextrose and insulin infusions, guided by close monitoring of blood ammonia, glucose and lactate.

Abstract
The ongoing severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic has threatened human health and the global economy. Development of additional vaccines and therapeutics is urgently required, but such development with live virus must be conducted with biosafety level 3 confinement. Pseudotyped viruses have been widely adopted for studies of virus entry and pharmaceutical development to overcome this restriction. Here we describe a modified protocol to generate vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) pseudotyped with SARS-CoV or SARS-CoV-2 spike protein in high yield. We found that a large proportion of pseudovirions produced with the conventional transient expression system lacked coronavirus spike protein at their surface as a result of inhibition of parental VSV infection by overexpression of this protein. Establishment of stable cell lines with an optimal expression level of coronavirus spike protein allowed the efficient production of progeny pseudoviruses decorated with spike protein. This improved VSV pseudovirus production method should facilitate studies of coronavirus entry and development of antiviral agents.Key words: severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV), SARS-CoV-2, pseudovirus, vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV), spike protein.

Abstract
The deacetylase HDAC6 has tandem catalytic domains and a zinc finger domain (ZnF) binding ubiquitin (Ub). While the catalytic domain has an antiviral effect, the ZnF facilitates influenza A virus (IAV) infection and cellular stress responses. By recruiting Ub via the ZnF, HDAC6 promotes the formation of aggresomes and stress granules (SGs), dynamic structures associated with pathologies such as neurodegeneration. IAV subverts the aggresome/HDAC6 pathway to facilitate capsid uncoating during early infection. To target this pathway, we generate designed ankyrin repeat proteins (DARPins) binding the ZnF; one of these prevents interaction with Ub in vitro and in cells. Crystallographic analysis shows that it blocks the ZnF pocket where Ub engages. Conditional expression of this DARPin reversibly impairs infection by IAV and Zika virus; moreover, SGs and aggresomes are downregulated. These results validate the HDAC6 ZnF as an attractive target for drug discovery. A small synthetic protein (DARPin) blocks interaction between HDAC6 and ubiquitin This DARPin impairs infection by influenza and Zika virus at the uncoating step Both viruses contain ubiquitin associated with their capsid The DARPin also impacts the formation of aggresomes and stress granules

Abstract
Influenza is a zoonotic respiratory disease of major public health interest due to its pandemic potential, and a threat to animals and the human population. The influenza A virus genome consists of eight single-stranded RNA segments sequestered within a protein capsid and a lipid bilayer envelope. During host cell entry, cellular cues contribute to viral conformational changes that promote critical events such as fusion with late endosomes, capsid uncoating and viral genome release into the cytosol. In this focused review, we concisely describe the virus infection cycle and highlight the recent findings of host cell pathways and cytosolic proteins that assist influenza uncoating during host cell entry.

Abstract
Biological processes are inherently continuous, and the chance of phenotypic discovery is significantly restricted by discretising them. Using multi-parametric active regression we introduce the Regression Plane (RP), a user-friendly discovery tool enabling class-free phenotypic supervised machine learning, to describe and explore biological data in a continuous manner. First, we compare traditional classification with regression in a simulated experimental setup. Second, we use our framework to identify genes involved in regulating triglyceride levels in human cells. Subsequently, we analyse a time-lapse dataset on mitosis to demonstrate that the proposed methodology is capable of modelling complex processes at infinite resolution. Finally, we show that hemocyte differentiation in Drosophila melanogaster has continuous characteristics.

Abstract
Influenza A virus (IAV) and SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) cause pandemic infections where cytokine storm syndrome and lung inflammation lead to high mortality. Given the high social and economic cost of respiratory viruses, there is an urgent need to understand how the airways defend against virus infection. Here we use mice lacking the WD and linker domains of ATG16L1 to demonstrate that ATG16L1-dependent targeting of LC3 to single-membrane, non-autophagosome compartments - referred to as non-canonical autophagy - protects mice from lethal IAV infection. Mice with systemic loss of non-canonical autophagy are exquisitely sensitive to low-pathogenicity IAV where extensive viral replication throughout the lungs, coupled with cytokine amplification mediated by plasmacytoid dendritic cells, leads to fulminant pneumonia, lung inflammation and high mortality. IAV was controlled within epithelial barriers where non-canonical autophagy reduced IAV fusion with endosomes and activation of interferon signalling. Conditional mouse models and ex vivo analysis showed that protection against IAV infection of lung was independent of phagocytes and other leucocytes. This establishes non-canonical autophagy in airway epithelial cells as a novel innate defence that restricts IAV infection and lethal inflammation at respiratory surfaces.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Diarrhea is often observed as an immune-related adverse event. In this study, we conducted a retrospective review of the severity of diarrhea, its treatment and the endoscopic findings in patients developing diarrhea as an immune-related adverse event. METHODS From August 2015 to June 2019, a total of 369 patients received treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors at our hospital. For this study, development of grade 2 or more diarrhea in these patients was defined as an immune-related adverse event. We analyzed the histopathological severity of the bowel lesions according to the Nancy histological index for ulcerative colitis. RESULTS Of the 369 patients, 27 (7.3%) developed diarrhea as an immune-related adverse event. Of these 27 patients, 18 received steroid treatment. Colonoscopy was performed in 17 patients and culture of the feces in 18. The tests revealed evidence of bacterial colitis (Aeromonas hydrophila) in two patients. The Nancy histological index was 4, 3, 2, 1 and 0 in two, three, two, two and seven patients, respectively. No findings on colonoscopy were observed in 7 of the 17 patients (41%) who underwent colonoscopy, and most of these patients recovered without steroid treatment. Patients with lower values of the Nancy histological index tended to show better responses to steroid treatment. CONCLUSIONS To avoid unnecessary steroid administration, colonoscopic evaluation is essential in patients receiving treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors who present with diarrhea as an immune-related adverse event. In addition, the endoscopic findings could be useful to predict the response to steroid treatment.

Abstract
Viruses are highly dependent on the host they infect. Their dependence triggers processes of virus-host co-adaptation, enabling viruses to explore host resources whilst escaping immunity. Scientists have tackled viral-host interplay at differing levels of complexity-in individual hosts, organs, tissues and cells-and seminal studies advanced our understanding about viral lifecycles, intra- or inter-species transmission, and means to control infections. Recently, it emerged as important to address the physical properties of the materials in biological systems; membrane-bound organelles are only one of many ways to separate molecules from the cellular milieu. By achieving a type of compartmentalization lacking membranes known as biomolecular condensates, biological systems developed alternative mechanisms of controlling reactions. The identification that many biological condensates display liquid properties led to the proposal that liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) drives their formation. The concept of LLPS is a paradigm shift in cellular structure and organization. There is an unprecedented momentum to revisit long-standing questions in virology and to explore novel antiviral strategies. In the first part of this review, we focus on the state-of-the-art about biomolecular condensates. In the second part, we capture what is known about RNA virus-phase biology and discuss future perspectives of this emerging field in virology.

Background
Haemodynamic assessment during stress testing is not commonly performed for patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) due to its invasiveness, less feasibility, and safety concerns. Passive leg-lifting (PLL) manoeuvres have been introduced as a simple alternative for non-invasive preload stress testing; however, the haemodynamic load imposed on the cardiovascular system is unsatisfactory, which precludes the accurate assessment of the preload reserve for patients with HF.
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to assess the haemodynamic characteristics of patients with HFrEF in response to a preload stress during dynamic postural alterations by combining the semi-sitting position (SSP) and PLL. We also evaluated whether combined postural stress could be used for risk stratification for these patients.
Methods
For this study, 101 patients with HFrEF and 35 age- and sex-matched normal controls were prospectively recruited. At each postural position (i.e., baseline, SSP, and PLL), all standard echocardiographic and Doppler variables were obtained. Adverse cardiac events were prespecified as the combined endpoints of death from or hospitalisation for deteriorated HF, or sudden cardiac death. Clinical follow-up was conducted for a median of 7 months.
Results
During PLL stress, the stroke volume index (SVi) significantly increased in both controls (from 40 ± 6 to 43 ± 6 mL/m², P = 0.03) and HFrEF patients (from 31 ± 9 to 34 ± 10 mL/m², P = 0.03). Conversely, during SSP stress, the SVi significantly decreased for both controls (from 40 ± 6 to 37 ± 6 mL/m², P = 0.03) and HFrEF patients (31 ± 9 to 28 ± 8 mL/m², P = 0.03). During the follow-up period, 16 patients developed cardiac events. In patients without events, the Frank-Starling mechanism was well preserved (Fig. A). Namely, the SVi significantly increased from 31 ± 9 to 35 ± 10 mL/m² (P = 0.02) during PLL stress, while the SVi significantly decreased from 31 ± 8 to 28 ± 8 mL/m² (P = 0.02) during SSP stress. In contrast, for patients with cardiac events, the SVi did not change during postural alterations (n.s), which indicated that the failing heart operates on the flat portion of the Frank-Starling curve (Fig. A). When patients were divided into three equal sub-groups based on the total difference in the SVi during dynamic postural stress, patients with impaired preload reserve (third trimester, ΔSVi ≤ 3.0 mL/m²) showed significantly worse event-free survival than the other two sub-groups (Fig. B; P < 0.001). In a Cox proportional-hazard analysis, baseline LVEF (hazard ratio 0.93; P = 0.04), and ΔSVi during postural stress (hazard ratio 0.76; P = 0.004) were predictors of future cardiac events.
Conclusions
The combined assessment of dynamic postural stress during PLL and SPP is a simple, time-saving, and easy-to-use clinical tool for the assessment of preload reserve for patients with HFrEF. Moreover, postural stress echocardiography proved to contribute to the risk stratification for these patients.

Abstract
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the causative agent of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), uses the viral spike (S) protein for host cell attachment and entry. The host protease furin cleaves the full-length precursor S glycoprotein into two associated polypeptides: S1 and S2. Cleavage of S generates a polybasic Arg-Arg-Ala-Arg carboxyl-terminal sequence on S1, which conforms to a C-end rule (CendR) motif that binds to cell surface neuropilin-1 (NRP1) and NRP2 receptors. We used x-ray crystallography and biochemical approaches to show that the S1 CendR motif directly bound NRP1. Blocking this interaction by RNA interference or selective inhibitors reduced SARS-CoV-2 entry and infectivity in cell culture. NRP1 thus serves as a host factor for SARS-CoV-2 infection and may potentially provide a therapeutic target for COVID-19.

Abstract
Gradient-echo T2-star (T2*)-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a sensitive method to detect cerebral microbleeds (CMBs). The presence of CMBs was reported to be a marker of future cardiovascular mortality and is associated with various cardiovascular risk factors, use of antithrombotic drugs, and cognitive dysfunction. However, the relationship between cardiac function and CMBs remains unclear. We investigated the association between cardiac function and presence of CMBs in patients with cardiovascular diseases. This single-center retrospective study included a total of 424 participants (mean age 70 ± 12 years; men 286 (67%); mean left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) 61% ± 12%] who underwent echocardiography and brain T2*-weighted MRI within 1 month without neurologic abnormality. CMBs were found in 118 (28%) patients. There was no significant relationship between CMBs and anticoagulant or antiplatelet therapy. LVEF was significantly lower in patients with CMBs than in those without CMBs (59% ± 13% vs. 62% ± 11%, P < 0.05). On multivariate logistic analysis, lower LVEF [odds ratio (OR) 0.98, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.96-1.00; P < 0.05] and age (OR 1.02, 95% CI 1.00-1.05; P < 0.05) were significantly associated with CMBs. The presence of CMBs was frequently observed in the patients with cardiovascular disease and was significantly associated with age and LVEF.

Abstract
Influenza A virus (IAV) is an enveloped virus of the Orthomyxoviridae with a negative-sense single-stranded RNA genome. During virus cell entry, viral and cellular cues are delivered in a stepwise manner within two distinct cellular compartments-the endosomes and the cytosol. Endosome maturation primes the viral core for uncoating by cytosolic host proteins and host-mediated virus disaggregation is essential for genome import and replication in the nucleus. Recent evidence shows that two well-known cellular proteins-histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) and karyopherin-β2 (kapβ2)-uncoat influenza virus. HDAC6 is 1 of 11 HDACs and an X-linked, cytosolic lysine deacetylase. Under normal cellular conditions HDAC6 is the tubulin deacetylase. Under proteasomal stress HDAC6 binds unanchored ubiquitin, dynein and myosin II to sequester misfolded protein aggregates for autophagy. Kapβ2 is a member of the importin β family that transports RNA-binding proteins into the nucleus by binding to disordered nuclear localization signals (NLSs) known as PY-NLS. Kapβ2 is emerging as a universal uncoating factor for IAV and human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). Kapβ2 can also reverse liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) of RNA-binding proteins by promoting their disaggregation. Thus, it is becoming evident that key players in the management of cellular condensates and membraneless organelles are potent virus uncoating factors. This emerging concept reveals implications in viral pathogenesis, as well as, the promise for cell-targeted therapeutic strategies to block universal virus uncoating pathways hijacked by enveloped RNA viruses.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The use of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) promotes better clinical outcomes for intervention in complex lesions. However, the data demonstrating whether use of IVUS improves primary patency following stenting for aorto-iliac lesions in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) are limited.
Purpose
The purpose of the current study was to investigate the impact of IVUS use on primary patency 12 months after stent implantation for aorto-iliac lesions.
Methods
We analyzed a clinical database of the OMOTENASHI registry (Observational prospective Multicenter registry study on Outcomes of peripheral arTErial disease patieNts treated by AngioplaSty tHerapy in aortoIliac artery), registering symptomatic PAD patients (Rutherford category 2, 3, or 4) undergoing endovascular therapy for aorto-iliac lesions between January 2014 and April 2016 in Japan. The current study analyzed 803 patients who underwent self-expandable stent implantation at 61 centers with the institutional volume known. The primary endpoint was 12-month restenosis, defined as ≥50% stenosis on computed tomography or angiography, or a peak systolic velocity ratio ≥2.5 on duplex ultrasound. When treatment strategies, endovascular procedures and clinical outcomes were compared between the patients treated with IVUS use and those treated without IVUS use, the propensity score matching was performed to minimize the inter-group difference in baseline characteristics.
Results
A total of 545 patients (67.9%) underwent IVUS-supported stent implantation. Patients treated with IVUS use had a lower prevalence of regular dialysis, whereas they had a higher prevalence of TASC II class D and chronic total occlusion. In patients treated with IVUS use, carbon dioxide contrast agent were more often used, and 0.035-inch guidewire was less frequently selected. Implanted stents in these patients were longer and smaller in diameter. The propensity score matching extracted 138 pairs, with no remarkable intergroup difference in baseline characteristics. Procedure time ≤1 hour was less frequent in patients treated with IVUS use; their radiation time was longer. Endovascular strategies, as well as postoperative medication were not significantly different between patients with and without IVUS use. The 12-month restenosis risk was not significantly different between patients with and without IVUS use (10.2% [6.9 to 14.9%] versus 10.3% [5.4 to 18.6%], P=0.99).
Conclusion
IVUS use in aorto-iliac stenting for patients with PAD was not associated with primary patency at 12 months.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Attenuation correction using segmentation of scatter and photo-peak window data (SSPAC) enables an evaluation of the attenuation map in a patient-specific manner without additional radiation exposure. We compared the accuracy of SSPAC and non-corrected myocardial perfusion scintigraphy methods for diagnosing the number of stenosed coronary artery vessels. METHODS AND RESULTS We retrospectively reviewed the data from 183 consecutive patients who underwent 99mTc-tetrofosmin stress/rest SPECT examination and a coronary angiography within 3 months. The MPS images were reconstructed with and without SSPAC attenuation correction. We examined the accuracy of the quantitative interpretation using summed differential score in the detection of coronary artery disease (CAD). The attenuation maps were successfully determined in 179 of 183 patients (98%). In terms of the vessel-based diagnostic ability, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive and negative predictive values of the SSPAC and non-correction methods for diagnosing CAD in individual coronary territories were 77%*, 89%, 74%*, and 90%* vs 51%, 87%, 62%, and 82%, respectively (*P < .05). In 35 patients with multi-vessel CAD, those values were 78%*, 81%, 93%, and 55%* vs 49%, 81%, 89%, and 34%, respectively (*P < .05; AUC: 0.82 vs 0.62, P < .05). CONCLUSION SSPAC-corrected SPECT myocardial perfusion images exhibit improved accuracy in the detection of the number of stenosed coronary artery vessels, even in patients with multi-vessel CAD.

Abstract
The geometric, electronic and magnetic properties of a nitric oxide (NO) adsorbed Fe3O4(100) surface have been investigated using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. NO molecules preferentially bond with surface Fe(B) atoms via their N atoms. The generalized gradient approximation (GGA) is not recommended to be used in such a strongly correlated system since it provides not only an overestimation of the adsorption energy and an underestimation of the Fe(B)-N bond length, but also magnetic quenching of the adsorbate and the bonded Fe(B) atoms. In contrast, a tilted geometry and magnetization of the adsorbate and the bonded Fe(B) atom are obtained after including the strong on-site Coulomb interactions through a Hubbard term (GGA+U). The spin-down 2π* states of the NO molecule are filled and broadened due to the adsorbate-substrate interaction and the molecule-molecule interaction. The surface spin polarization close to the Fermi level is expected to be greatly enhanced by the NO adsorption which has significance for interface design in spintronic devices.

Abstract
Cellular responses depend on the interactions of extracellular ligands, such as nutrients, growth factors, or drugs, with specific cell-surface receptors. The sensitivity of these interactions to non-physiological conditions, however, makes them challenging to study using in vitro assays. Here we present HATRIC-based ligand receptor capture (HATRIC-LRC), a chemoproteomic technology that successfully identifies target receptors for orphan ligands on living cells ranging from small molecules to intact viruses. HATRIC-LRC combines a click chemistry-based, protein-centric workflow with a water-soluble catalyst to capture ligand-receptor interactions at physiological pH from as few as 1 million cells. We show HATRIC-LRC utility for general antibody target validation within the native nanoscale organization of the surfaceome, as well as receptor identification for a small molecule ligand. HATRIC-LRC further enables the identification of complex extracellular interactomes, such as the host receptor panel for influenza A virus (IAV), the causative agent of the common flu. Technologies for identifying receptor-ligand pairs on living cells at physiological conditions remain scarce. Here, the authors develop a mass spectrometry-based ligand receptor capture technology that can identify receptors for a diverse range of ligands at physiological pH with as few as a million cells.

Abstract
Abstract:Interactions are described of central origin between respiratory, cardiac and stepping rhythms during fictive locomotion in paralyzed, vagotomized, and decerebrated cats. Fictive locomotion was induced by tonic electrical stimulation of the mesencephalic locomotor region (MLR). The coherence between heart beat fluctuation, the efferent discharges of the phrenic, and the lateral gastrocnemius nerves was used to evaluate the strength of the coupling between those three rhythms. The heart beat rhythm was modulated by the centrally generated respiratory and stepping rhythms. The central respiratory rhythm was modulated by the centrally generated stepping rhythm. Based on the present findings, we have proposed a new model concerning the functional hierarchical structures of the three biological oscillators.

Abstract
Influenza, a serious illness of humans and domesticated animals, has been studied intensively for many years. It therefore provides an example of how much we can learn from detailed studies of an infectious disease and of how even the most intensive scientific research leaves further questions to answer. This introduction is written for researchers who have become interested in one of these unanswered questions, but who may not have previously worked on influenza. To investigate these questions, researchers must not only have a firm grasp of relevant methods and protocols; they must also be familiar with the basic details of our current understanding of influenza. This article therefore briefly covers the burden of disease that has driven influenza research, summarizes how our thinking about influenza has evolved over time, and sets out key features of influenza viruses by discussing how we classify them and what we understand of their replication. It does not aim to be comprehensive, as any researcher will read deeply into the specific areas that have grasped their interest. Instead, it aims to provide a general summary of how we came to think about influenza in the way we do now, in the hope that the reader's own research will help us to understand it better.

Abstract
Influenza A virus (IAV) is an enveloped virus with a segmented single-stranded negative-strand RNA genome. In general, the role of virally encapsidated host cell proteins in the viral life cycle is unclear. The virion contains abundant ubiquitin molecules some of which have been identified as unanchored polyubiquitin chains. These ubiquitin chains have been postulated to play a role in recruiting histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) to the cytosolic surface of late endosomes (LEs), promoting IAV uncoating via aggresome processing-a cellular machinery that disposes of protein waste. HDAC6, a class II HDAC, is unusual because it resides mostly in the cytosol instead of the nucleus. It is a unique protein consisting of two catalytic domains (CDs) and a zinc-finger ubiquitin-binding domain (ZnF-UBP) close to its C-terminus. This ZnF-UBP recognizes the unconjugated ubiquitin C-terminus (di-Gly motif) with very high affinity. Biochemical analyses showed that free di-Gly motifs are present in the form of unanchored ubiquitin inside IAV virions. These motifs are exposed following low pH-triggered viral fusion at the LEs and attract HDAC6 transiently to the cytosolic surface of vesicles. The binding of the two components promotes viral uncoating via HDAC6 interaction with cellular motor proteins dynein and myosin II and the viral M1 capsid. The cellular mechanism involved is related to aggresome processing, a pathway that promotes degradation of misfolded protein aggregates. K63-linked ubiquitin chains are thought to be the trigger for aggresome processing, though it is still not clear whether such types of chains are prevalent within the IAV capsid. Here, we present methods using purified ZnF-UBP domain of HDAC6 to immunoprecipitate viral unanchored ubiquitin chains, which can then be used for further biochemical analyses of ubiquitin chain linkage.

Abstract
Influenza A virus (IAV) entry is a stepwise process regulated by viral and cellular cues, facilitating cellular functions. Virus entry begins by attachment of hemagglutinin to cell surface sialic acids, followed by endocytic uptake, vesicular transport along microtubules, low-pH-mediated viral membrane fusion with the late endosomal membrane, capsid uncoating, viral ribonucleoprotein (vRNP) release, and nuclear import of vRNPs. Here we show a basic methodology to visualize incoming and egressing IAV particles by correlative light and electron microscopy (CLEM). We combine fluorescence microscopy of virus-infected human lung carcinoma A549 cells with high-pressure freezing (HPF) and in-resin fluorescence CLEM and the Tokuyasu CLEM method. This approach forms a basis to study the virus life cycle and virus-host interactions at the ultrastructural level.

Abstract
Reversible control of the spin state of an organic molecule is significant for the development of molecular spintronic devices. Here, density functional theory calculations have been performed to study the adsorption of atomic nitrogen on a single manganese phthalocyanine (MnPc) molecule, three-layered MnPc, and MnPc on an Fe(100) surface. For all three cases, the N atom strongly adsorbs on top of the Mn atom and induces a significant variation of the geometric, electronic and magnetic properties. After N adsorption, an energy gap appears and the electronic states become unpolarized. Different functionals including three hybrid functionals are used in these calculations, and all yield a switchable spin state.

Abstract
Background and purpose Xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR), which catalyzes purine catabolism, has two interconvertible forms, xanthine dehydrogenase and xanthine oxidase, the latter of which produces superoxide during uric acid (UA) synthesis. An association between plasma XOR activity and cardiovascular and renal outcomes has been previously suggested. We investigated the potential association between cardiac parameters and plasma XOR activity among cardiology patients. Methods and results Plasma XOR activity was measured by [13C2,15N2]xanthine coupled with liquid chromatography/triplequadrupole mass spectrometry. Among 270 patients who were not taking UA-lowering drugs, XOR activity was associated with body mass index (BMI), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), HbA1c and renal function. Although XOR activity was not associated with serum UA overall, patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), those with higher XOR activity had higher serum UA among patients without CKD. Compared with patients with the lowest XOR activity quartile, those with higher three XOR activity quartiles more frequently had left ventricular hypertrophy. In addition, plasma XOR activity showed a U-shaped association with low left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and increased plasma B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels, and these associations were independent of age, gender, BMI, ALT, HbA1C, serum UA, and CKD stages. Conclusions Among cardiac patients, left ventricular hypertrophy, low LVEF, and increased BNP were significantly associated with plasma XOR activity independent of various confounding factors. Whether pharmaceutical modification of plasma XOR activity might inhibit cardiac remodeling and improve cardiovascular outcome should be investigated in future studies.

Abstract
Mean serum uric acid (SUA) levels are higher in men than women. In addition, recent studies have suggested that the SUA threshold at which the cardiovascular risk might increase may vary between women and men. In the current retrospective study, by analyzing the data from 219 female and 519 male patients who were free from uric acid-lowering medication, we investigated whether SUA is associated with left ventricular mass index (LVMI), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), and plasma levels of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) independent of confounding factors, such as serum calcium, inorganic phosphate, and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), in a gender-specific manner.In multivariate stepwise linear regression analysis in which age, blood pressure, eGFR, corrected calcium, inorganic phosphate, and FGF23 were entered as potential covariates, SUA was selected as a factor significantly associated with LVEF, LVMI, and plasma levels of BNP in both genders. On the other hand, however, after adding diuretic use as a potential covariate, the association between SUA and LVEF lost statistical significance in both genders, and that between SUA and BNP lost significance among female patients. These findings suggest that diuretic use is a non-negligible confounder in understanding the observed association between SUA and cardiac dysfunction and heart failure.In summary, SUA is associated with left ventricular hypertrophy independent of confounding factors including FGF23 and diuretic use in female and male patients. Whether lowering SUA can influence the progression of cardiac remodeling awaits further investigation.
