Elucidating the mechano-molecular dynamics of TRAP activity using CRISPR/Cas9 mediated fluorescent reporter mice.
Yılmaz D, Marques FC, Fischer Y, Zimmermann S, Hwang G, Atkins PR, Mathavan N, Singh A, de Souza PPC, Kuhn GA, Wehrle E, Müller R
Osteoclasts are essential for bone remodeling by adapting their resorptive activity in response to their mechanical in vivo environment. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this process remain unclear. Here, we demonstrated the role of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP, Acp5), a key enzyme secreted by osteoclasts, in bone remodeling and mechanosensitivity. Using CRISPR/Cas9 reporter mice, we demonstrated bone cell reporter (BCRIbsp/Acp5) mice feature fluorescent TRAP-deficient o...

Periconceptional Non-medical Maternal Determinants Influence the Tryptophan Metabolism: The Rotterdam Periconceptional Cohort (Predict Study).
van Zundert SK, van Rossem L, Mirzaian M, Griffioen PH, Willemsen SP, van Schaik RH, Steegers-Theunissen RP
Background: The vital role of the maternal tryptophan (TRP) metabolism in maternal health and pregnancy is well established. However, non-medical maternal determinants influencing the TRP metabolism have been poorly investigated. We hypothesise that periconceptional maternal non-medical determinants alter the TRP metabolism, affecting both kynurenine (KP) and serotonin pathway (SP) metabolite concentrations. Therefore, we investigated the influence of non-medical maternal determinants on the TRP...

The potential benefit of statin prescription based on prediction of treatment responsiveness in older individuals: an application to the PROSPER randomized controlled trial.
Nguyen TL, Trompet S, Brodersen JB, Hoogland J, Debray TPA, Sattar N, Jukema JW, Westendorp RGJ
Aims: Clinical guidelines often recommend treating individuals based on their cardiovascular risk. We revisit this paradigm and quantify the efficacy of three treatment strategies: (i) overall prescription, i.e. treatment to all individuals sharing the eligibility criteria of a trial; (ii) risk-stratified prescription, i.e. treatment only to those at an elevated outcome risk; and (iii) prescription based on predicted treatment responsiveness. Methods and results: We reanalysed the PROSPER random...
