(C) Catalytic effect of TgCyps on protein folding of RNase T1. The increase in fluorescence at 320 nm is shown as a function of the time of refolding in the presence of a fixed concentration of TgCyp18.4 (green), TgCyp23 (blue), and human CypA (red). The control experiment showing the spontaneous refolding of RNase T1 in the absence of Cyps is also displayed (black). (D) Histogram shows the mean value of the exponential folding rate constants kobs of RNase T1 in the absence and presence of Cyp variants. Color coding as in C. n = 3 independent experiments were performed. The error bars represent standard error from the mean value.

CsA inhibition of recombinant Cyps. (A) PPIase activity of 7 nM TgCyp23 (red) and 7 nM human CypA (black) measured at increasing concentrations of CsA, ranging from 0 to 30 nM. (B) PPIase activity of 3 μM TgCyp18.4 (black) and 3 μM TgCyp18.4 H111W (red) in the presence of increasing amounts of CsA, ranging from 0 to 6 μM. The concentration of AAPF used in the assays was fixed to 100 μM, corresponding to a cis substrate concentration of 40 μM, which is much smaller than the calculated Km. Therefore, no deviations from the expected first-order kinetics were observed in the presence of CsA.1

Capture of human 8CLCs in naïve pluripotent stem cell cultures.The heterogeneous gene expression patterns and plasticity of naïve PSCs allows subpopulations of 8CLCs to arise. 8CLCs cells were first identified by scRNA-seq and showed transcriptional similarity to in vivo human 8C embryos. The abundance of 8CLCs in culture can be improved by modulating the epigenetic and transcriptional state of naïve hPSCs via transgene expression (DUX4) or small molecule inhibitors [trichostatin A (TSA) and 3-deazaneplanocin A (DZneP)]. The transcriptional features of 8CLCs and 8C embryos identified through scRNA-seq allowed for the identification of the human 8C marker TPRX1, a key director of 8CLC gene regulatory networks. 8CLCs downregulate the expression of canonical pluripotency genes (e.g. OCT4 and SOX2) and upregulate totipotency-associated genes (e.g. TPRX1 and DUXA). They also display functional characteristics of totipotency as they can give rise to both embryonic and extraembryonic tissues in vitro and in vivo. 8CLCs hold great promise in advancing early embryo models, improving interspecies chimerism for interspecies organogenesis, and modeling human development in a dish.

The graph shows hypothetical type II ROC curves of a hypothetical observer with a given metacognitive capacity, exposed to different levels of difficulty in the primary task, implying different levels of type I sensitivity (d’). Empirical metacognitive sensitivity (type II) will be constrained by type I task difficulty - the same observer will show different levels of type II sensitivities, depending on the difficult in the primary task. This is why we only considered studies that had approximately equal type I performance levels for both participant groups. See also Fleming and Dolan (2012).

The experimental procedure. Newborn rats were randomly divided into four groups: Con, Con + Gln, Hyp and Hyp + Gln. The Hyp and Hyp + Gln groups were placed in 85% O2 for 7 days, Con and Con + Gln groups were placed indoor (21% O2). Gln [1 μg/g (B)W] was administered intraperitoneally to newborn rats in the Con + Gln and Hyp + Gln groups at the same time each day, and the same volume of 0.9% NaCl was administered intraperitoneally to newborn rats in the Con and Hyp groups at the same time for 7 days. At P7, each group of randomly selected newborn rats for histopathological analysis (n = 3), determine the water content of brain tissue (n = 3) and protein analysis (n = 3). At P30, each group of neonatal rats (n = 6) began the Morris water maze experiment.

Graphical abstract. Hyperoxia can lead to behavioral abnormalities and neurocognitive and learning deficits in newborn rats, which is thought to be related to damage to hippocampal neurons caused by oxidative stress, inflammation, apoptosis, and microglial overactivation. Gln may induce MKP-1 and thereby inhibit activation of the MAPK signaling pathway, leading to a reduction in oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis in cells and attenuating hyperoxia-induced damage to cerebral tissue, and improve learning and memory dysfunction.

Transcriptomic characterisation of circulating cDC2s from patients with pSS and nSS. RNA sequencing of circulating cDC2s was performed independently for both discovery and replication cohorts. Venn diagrams show the overlap of the DEGs with a nominal p value of <0.05 between any of the three groups for the discovery cohort (A) and the replication cohort (B). Scatter plots show the FC (log2) of the DEGs between the two cohorts for the different comparisons, pSS versus HC (C), nSS versus HC (D) and pSS versus nSS (E). Volcano plots display the relationship between the FC (log2, x-axis) and the nominal p value (−log10, y-axis) of the DEGs consistently downregulated or upregulated in both cohorts for each comparison (F–H). cDC2, type 2 conventional dendritic cell; DEG, differentially expressed gene; FC, fold change; HC, healthy control; nSS, non-Sjögren’s sicca; pSS, primary Sjögren’s syndrome.

cDC2s from patients with pSS are functionally different in interferon-associated pathways and in antigen processing. Reactome pathway enrichment analysis was used for functional annotation of the DEGs between pSS versus HC (selected in figure 1F). The top significantly enriched reactome pathways are depicted. The x-axis shows the number of DEGs found within the pathway over the total number of pathway components (ratio); dot size depicts the number of genes used for enrichment and colour indicates the statistical significance (A).
