Serum neurofilament light chain in chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy.
van Lieverloo GGA, Wieske L, Verhamme C, Vrancken AFJ, van Doorn PA, Michalak Z, Barro C, van Schaik IN, Kuhle J, Eftimov F
Axonal damage in chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) is the main predictor of poor outcome. We hypothesized that serum neurofilament light chain (sNfL) reflects disease activity by detecting ongoing neuro-axonal damage in CIDP. Three prospective cohorts of CIDP patients were studied: (a) patients starting induction treatment (IT cohort, N = 29) measured at baseline and 6 months after starting treatment; (b) patients on maintenance treatment (MT) starting intravenous immunogl...

STOC Free: An Innovative Framework to Compare Probability of Freedom From Infection in Heterogeneous Control Programmes.
van Roon AM, Santman-Berends IMGA, Graham D, More SJ, Nielen M, Madouasse A, Mercat M, Fourichon C, Gethmann J, Frössling J, Lindberg A, Correia-Gomes C, Gunn GJ, Sauter-Louis C, Henry MK, van Duijn L, van Schaik G
The existence, stage of eradication and design of control programmes (CPs) for diseases that are not regulated by the EU differ between Member States. When freedom from infection is reached or being pursued, safe trade is essential to protect or reach that status. The aim of STOC free, a collaborative project between six countries, is to develop and validate a framework that enables a transparent and standardized comparison of confidence of freedom for CPs across herds, regions or countries. The...

Anti-fibrotic Effects of Cardiac Progenitor Cells in a 3D-Model of Human Cardiac Fibrosis.
Bracco Gartner TCL, Deddens JC, Mol EA, Magin Ferrer M, van Laake LW, Bouten CVC, Khademhosseini A, Doevendans PA, Suyker WJL, Sluijter JPG, Hjortnaes J
Cardiac fibroblasts play a key role in chronic heart failure. The conversion from cardiac fibroblast to myofibroblast as a result of cardiac injury, will lead to excessive matrix deposition and a perpetuation of pro-fibrotic signaling. Cardiac cell therapy for chronic heart failure may be able to target fibroblast behavior in a paracrine fashion. However, no reliable human fibrotic tissue model exists to evaluate this potential effect of cardiac cell therapy. Using a gelatin methacryloyl hydroge...

Preventive cognitive therapy versus care as usual in cognitive behavioral therapy responders: A randomized controlled trial.
de Jonge M, Bockting CLH, Kikkert MJ, van Dijk MK, van Schaik DJF, Peen J, Hollon SD, Dekker JJM
Objective: The optimization of long-term outcomes is an important goal in the treatment of major depressive disorder. Offering subsequent preventive cognitive therapy (PCT) to patients who responded to acute cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) may reduce the risk of relapse/recurrence. Method: Therefore, a multicenter randomized controlled trial was conducted comparing the addition of eight weekly sessions of PCT to care as usual (CAU) versus CAU alone in patients with a history of depression in...

Promoter-Intrinsic and Local Chromatin Features Determine Gene Repression in LADs.
Leemans C, van der Zwalm MCH, Brueckner L, Comoglio F, van Schaik T, Pagie L, van Arensbergen J, van Steensel B
It is largely unclear whether genes that are naturally embedded in lamina-associated domains (LADs) are inactive due to their chromatin environment or whether LADs are merely secondary to the lack of transcription. We show that hundreds of human promoters become active when moved from their native LAD position to a neutral context in the same cells, indicating that LADs form a repressive environment. Another set of promoters inside LADs is able to "escape" repression, although their tr...

Insufficient evidence for a role of SERPINF1 in otosclerosis.
Valgaeren H, Sommen M, Beyens M, Vandeweyer G, Schrauwen I, Schepers A, Schatteman I, Topsakal V, Dhooge I, Kunst H, Zanetti D, Huber AM, Hoischen A, Fransen E, Van Camp G
Otosclerosis is a common form of hearing loss (HL) due to abnormal remodeling of the otic capsule. The genetic causes of otosclerosis remain largely unidentified. Only mutations in a single gene, SERPINF1, were previously published in patients with familial otosclerosis. To unravel the contribution of genetic variation in this gene to otosclerosis, this gene was re-sequenced in a large population of otosclerosis patients and controls. Resequencing of the 5' and 3' UTRs, coding regions,...

Flow Cytometry-Based Characterization of Mast Cells in Human Atherosclerosis.
Kritikou E, Depuydt MAC, de Vries MR, Mulder KE, Govaert AM, Smit MD, van Duijn J, Foks AC, Wezel A, Smeets HJ, Slütter B, Quax PHA, Kuiper J, Bot I
The presence of mast cells in human atherosclerotic plaques has been associated with adverse cardiovascular events. Mast cell activation, through the classical antigen sensitized-IgE binding to their characteristic Fcε-receptor, causes the release of their cytoplasmic granules. These granules are filled with neutral proteases such as tryptase, but also with histamine and pro-inflammatory mediators. Mast cells accumulate in high numbers within human atherosclerotic tissue, particularly in the sho...

Evaluating the self-domestication hypothesis of human evolution.
Sánchez-Villagra MR, van Schaik CP
"Self-domestication" has been invoked to understand important aspects of human evolution, integrating physiological, behavioral, and morphological information in a novel way. It proposes that selection for reduced aggression on animals undergoing domestication provides a model for selection favoring prosocial behaviors in humans and for a set of seemingly independent features, which arose as a result of developmental correlation. We review the history of the idea and examine patterns o...
