HiChIP enables cost-effective and high-resolution profiling of regulatory and structural loops. To leverage the increasing number of publicly available HiChIP datasets from diverse cell lines and primary cells, we developed the Loop Catalog ( https://loopcatalog.lji.org ), a web-based database featuring HiChIP loop calls for 1319 samples across 133 studies and 44 high-resolution Hi-C loop calls. We demonstrate its utility in interpreting fine-mapped GWAS variants (SNP-to-gene linking), in identifying enriched sequence motifs and motif pairs at loop anchors, and in network-level analysis of loops connecting regulatory elements (community detection)...

INTRODUCTION: Hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP) represents a significant cause of mortality among critically ill patients admitted to Intensive Care Units (ICUs). Timely and precise diagnosis is imperative to enhance therapeutic efficacy and patient outcomes. However, the diagnostic process is challenged by test limitations and a wide-ranging list of differential diagnoses, particularly in patients exhibiting escalating oxygen requirements, leukocytosis, and increased secretions. AREAS COVERED: This narrative review aims to update diagnostic modalities, facilitating the prompt identification of nosocomial pneumonia while guiding, developing, and assessing therapeutic interventions...

The extent of cell-to-cell variation in tumor mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copy number and genotype, and the phenotypic and evolutionary consequences of such variation, are poorly characterized. Here we use amplification-free single-cell whole-genome sequencing (Direct Library Prep (DLP+)) to simultaneously assay mtDNA copy number and nuclear DNA (nuDNA) in 72,275 single cells derived from immortalized cell lines, patient-derived xenografts and primary human tumors. Cells typically contained thousands of mtDNA copies, but variation in mtDNA copy number was extensive and strongly associated with cell size...

Despite abundant evidence demonstrating that platelets foster metastasis, anti-platelet agents have low therapeutic potential due to the risk of hemorrhages. In addition, whether platelets can regulate metastasis at the late stages of the disease remains unknown. In this study, we subject syngeneic models of metastasis to various thrombocytopenic regimes to show that platelets provide a biphasic contribution to metastasis. While potent intravascular binding of platelets to tumor cells efficiently promotes metastasis, platelets further support the outgrowth of established metastases via immune suppression...

INTRODUCTION: We previously showed that a 3-week oral Metformin (MET) treatment enhances the osteogenic potential of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) and improves several bone histomorphometric parameters in Wistar rats with metabolic syndrome (MetS). However, the skeletal effects of extended periods of MET are still not completely elucidated. Hence, we investigated the impact of a prolonged (3-month) MET treatment on bone architecture, histomorphometric and biomechanics variables and osteogenic potential of BMSCs in Wistar rats with or without MetS...

We propose that spontaneous folding and molecular evolution of biopolymers are two universal aspects that must concur for life to happen. These aspects are fundamentally related to the chemical composition of biopolymers and crucially depend on the solvent in which they are embedded. We show that molecular information theory and energy landscape theory allow us to explore the limits that solvents impose on biopolymer existence. We consider 54 solvents, including water, alcohols, hydrocarbons, halogenated solvents, aromatic solvents, and low molecular weight substances made up of elements abundant in the universe, which may potentially take part in alternative biochemistries...

The consumption of pornography over the Internet by minors has been increasing exponentially in recent years. The use of digital technologies and the ease of access to these contents are causes that explain this event. Simultaneously, there is concern about the increase in sexual violence, associated with discriminatory behavior, despite the efforts of laws and programs that promote sexual reproductive health (SRH) and the principle of equality. From a bioethical point of view, it is urgent to address this issue, which affects the physical and psychological health of minors and their affective-sexual education...

Understanding and classifying brain states as a function of sleep quality and age has important implications for developing lifestyle-based interventions involving sleep hygiene. Current studies use an algorithm that captures non-linear features of brain complexity to differentiate awake electroencephalography (EEG) states, as a function of age and sleep quality. Fifty-eight participants were assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Inventory (PSQI) and awake resting state EEG. Groups were formed based on age and sleep quality (younger adults n = 24, mean age = 24...
