Background About 50 different CALR frameshift mutations have been identified in BCR-ABL1 negative MPN, all leading to the development of common new protein C terminus. Antibody targeting this terminal epitope can be useful to identify this driver mutation using immunohistochemistry. Materials and methods CALR mutation analysis was carried out in 51 JAK2V617F negative cases, PMF (n = 22) and ET (n = 29). PCR followed by fragment analysis was performed for molecular detection of CALR mutation. Bone marrow biopsy specimens of corresponding patients were subjected to IHC using mutation specific antibody CAL2. Staining pattern and intensity were observed. Staining of less then 2% of background nonmegakaryocytic (non- MK) cells were regarded as Pattern A, while staining of more than 2% of background nonmegakaryocytic (non-MK) was regarded as pattern B. Results CALR mutation was noted in 40.9% (9/22) and 41.4% (12/29) of JAK2V617F negative PMF and ET, respectively. All CALR mutated cases, irrespective of the mutation type, showed a positive IHC staining in the megakaryocytes with moderate to bright intensity. All CALR wild-type cases were negative on IHC. (Concordance rate- 100%). Pattern A was noted in 40% cases, while pattern B was noted in 60% cases. Pattern A staining had significantly higher chances of having type 1 mutation as compared to pattern B. In contrast, pattern B had a nonsignificant trend toward higher bone marrow cellularity and marrow fibrosis. Conclusion CAL2 IHC detects all types of CALR mutation. This can act as a sensitive, specific, rapid, and cost-effective screening test for CALR mutation analysis.Metal organic frameworks are considered as an efficient and promised adsorbent for separation of several ions and compounds from solutions due to its unique geometric structure. Herein, copper-benzyl tricarboxylic acid based metal organic frameworks have showed a high efficiency in enrichment and microextraction of malathion from food and water samples. The microextraction procedures were followed by determination of malathion by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The optimum recoveries for malathion were obtained at pH 6, and with using 2 mL of ethyl acetate as the eluent. The microextraction procedures showed a detection limits and the quantification limits of 4.0 μg.L-1 and 10.0 μg.L-1 respectively. The intra-day and inter-day precision showed a relative standard deviation% less than 10. The feasibility of the proposed procedure was determined by evaluating the addition/recovery studies of malathion from the real samples. The absolute recovery% was ≥ 92%. Opicapone Furthermore, some ions were tested as co-interfering ions, and the recovery% was in the range 93%-100%. These results confirm that the developed microextraction procedure based on copper-benzyl tricarboxylic acid based metal organic frameworks as extractor for dispersive solid phase microextraction is matrix-independent, and can be applied for various real samples including different matrix or various malathion content.

In the present work, we have generated three individual QSPR models for three different endpoints for a large number of polymers in order to determine their fire retardant property such as heat release capacity, total heat release, and %Char, using the only two-dimensional descriptors with definite physicochemical meaning. Relevant subsets of descriptors were selected employing a genetic algorithm approach; subsequently, the selected descriptors were utilised for the identification of the best combination of the variables for the model generation, while the final models were developed employing the partial least squares (PLS) regression algorithm. The generated models were rigorously validated using various internationally accepted internal and external validation metrics. All the models showed promising statistical quality in terms of determination coefficient R 2 (0.802, 0.842 and 0.826), cross-validated leave-one-out Q2 (0.759, 0.810 and 0.752) and predictive R2 pred or Q2 ext (0.810, 0.900 and 0.847) for HRC (nTraining =62, nTest =28), THR (nTraining =64, nTest =21) and %char (nTraining =49, nTest =21) datasets, respectively. All the certified models were used for prediction of flammability characteristics of 37 external set compounds, and further, the quality of prediction was determined by using the PRI software tool. The final models of HRC, THR and %Char formation of polymers may be useful to predict the flammability characteristics of polymers quickly before their synthesis and used as a better alternative approach to the experimental testing of flammability of polymers.Background Hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer syndrome (HLRCC), caused by heterozygous germline pathogenic variants in the FH, confers an increased risk for cutaneous and uterine leiomyomas and renal cancer. Methods About 13,722 advanced cancer patients, including 560 with renal cell carcinoma, had germline analysis performed in the context of tumor-normal sequencing under an IRB approved protocol. Results We report two unrelated individuals with early onset kidney cancer who both carried the c.914C > T (p.Phe305Ser) germline variant in the FH. Both tumors exhibited loss of FH staining by immunohistochemistry and/or positive 2SC staining. Subsequent familial testing discovered that a daughter of a proband who carried the variant had both cutaneous and uterine leiomyomas. Conclusion This combination of evidence suggests that the FH c.914C > T (p.Phe305Ser) is pathogenic for HLRCC.Hypertension is the key factor for the development of cardiac fibrosis and diastolic dysfunction. Our previous study showed that knockout of sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) resulted in diastolic dysfunction in mice. In the present study, we explored the role of SIRT3 in angiotensin II (Ang-II)-induced cardiac fibrosis and pericyte-myofibroblast transition. NG2 tracing reporter NG2-DsRed mouse was crossed with wild-type (WT) mice and SIRT3KO mice. Cardiac function, cardiac fibrosis and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were measured. Mice infused with Ang-II for 28 days showed a significant reduction of SIRT3 expression in the mouse hearts. Knockout of SIRT3 sensitized Ang-II-induced elevation of isovolumic relaxation time (IVRT) and reduction of ejection fraction (EF) and fractional shortening (FS). Ang-II-induced cardiac fibrosis, capillary rarefaction and hypertrophy were further enhanced by knockout of SIRT3. NG2 pericyte tracing reporter mice infused with Ang-II had a significantly increased number of NG2-DsRed pericyte in the heart.
