Elevated homocysteine (Hcy) levels are associated with increased oxidative stress and compromised blood-brain barrier (BBB) integrity. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has recently emerged as potent neuroprotective molecule in various neurological conditions including those associated with HHcy. The present study evaluates the protective effect of sodium hydrogen sulfide (NaHS; a source of H2S) on HHcy-induced BBB dysfunction and underpin molecular mechanisms. Materials and methods Supplementation of NaHS restored the increased BBB permeability in the cortex and hippocampus of HHcy animals assessed in terms of diffused sodium fluorescein and Evans blue tracer dyes in the brain. Activity of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) assessed by gelatinase activity and in situ gelatinase assay was restored to the normal in the cortex and hippocampus of HHcy animals supplemented with NaHS. Results Application of gelatin zymography revealed that specifically MMP-9 activity was increased in the cortex and hippocampus of HHcy animals, which was inhibited by NaHS supplementation. Real-time RT-PCR analysis showed that NaHS administration also decreased mRNA expression of MMP-9 in the hippocampus of HHcy animals. JZL184 research buy NaHS supplementation was further observed to reduce water retention in the brain regions of Hcy treated animals. Conclusion Taken together, these findings suggest that NaHS supplementation ameliorates HHcy-induced BBB permeability and brain edema by inhibiting the mRNA expression and activity of MMP-9. Therefore, H2S and H2S releasing drugs may be used as a novel therapeutic approach to treat HHcy-associated neurovascular disorders.Objective This exploratory cross-sectional study aimed to evaluate the associations between the chemokine ligand 18 (CCL18) blood level and phenotypic characteristics of asthma. Methods We evaluated in a sample of 173 asthmatic adult patients from the Cohort of Bronchial obstruction and Asthma (63.4% women; median age 50 ± interquartile range 27.5 years; median level of CCL18 was 44.1 ± interquartile range 27.5 ng/mL) the association between CCL18 blood level and allergic features of asthma using a multivariate analysis. Results We found an association between the log-transformed value of blood CCL18 and age (+0.7% [0.1; 1.3] per 1-year increase, p = 0.033), gender (-25.1% [-42; -3.2] in women, p = 0.029), and nasal polyposis (+38.1% [11.6; 70.9], p = 0.004). No association was observed between CCL18 level and the other main phenotypic characteristics of asthma. Conclusions Our exploratory study suggests that CCL18 is not an effective biomarker of allergic asthma endotype but may rather be a biomarker of tissue eosinophilia as supported by its association with nasal polyposis.
In this study, we aimed to discuss the clinical features, laboratory findings, treatment and outcome of seven cases of neurobrucellosis from a tertiary care center and review the available global literature.

The diagnosis of neurobrucellosis was established using the following criteria in our setting (1) signs and symptoms of neurological infection with examination of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) revealing signs of meningitis, (2) isolation of
spp. from blood and/or CSF and/or antibody titer ≥1160 in serum using standard agglutination test (SAT) and/or the presence of anti-Brucella antibodies in CSF and/or detection of
spp.-specific DNA from CSF using PCR. A literature search was performed to review previous cases of neurobrucellosis published worldwide during the last 30 years.

The proportion of neurobrucellosis was 2.8% in our setting. Fever with headache and altered sensorium were the major presenting complaints.
was isolated from blood culture in 6 patients. From the literature search, a totaleatment.In this comparative study, serum complement system antimicrobial activity was measured from 159 serum samples, taken from individuals from microbe-damaged (70 samples) and from reference buildings (89 samples). Antimicrobial activity was assessed using a probe-based bacterial Escherichia coli-lux bioluminescence system and comparison was made at a group level between the experimental and reference group. The complement activity was higher in users of microbe-damaged buildings compared with the reference group and the significant (P  less then  0.001) increase in activity was found in the classical reaction pathway. This study strengthens our notion that exposure to indoor-related microbe damage increases the risk for systemic subclinical inflammation and creates a health risk for building users.
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder with large genetic background, but identification of pathogenic variants has proceeded slowly because hundreds of loci are involved in this complex disorder.
gene firstly associated with the intellectual disability (ID) in a family with a large deletion. We aimed to contribute to the literature by sequencing this gene and by this way we report novel
variations in patients with ASD.

Forty families who have a child with a diagnosis of ASD were enrolled to the study. DNA samples were obtained from each family member. Bidirectional
gene sequencing was performed with CEQ Cycle Sequencing Kit, and the products were analyzed on the Beckman CEQ 8000. All of the genetic analysis was conducted in Erciyes University Genome and Stem Cell Center (GENKOK).

According to the sequencing results, we defined new alterations in this gene with two SNPs in exon 15 and 19 (rs747172992 and rs1364074600) in our patients. We found a pathogenic variant in one patient.
