概括
研究人员使用机器学习确定了三种新的多系统缩 (MSA) 亚型. 一个亚型,SN-OPC同步,表现出更快的进展和更差的存活率,为疾病机制提供了新的见解.
科学领域:
- 神经科学是一个神经科学.
- 计算生物学 计算生物学
- 病理学 病理学 病理学
背景情况:
- 多种系统性缩 (MSA) 呈现出帕金森症 (MSA-P) 和小脑 (MSA-C) 现象型,与条性缩 (SN) 退化和橄松小脑缩 (OPC) 相关.
- 在MSA中疾病进展模式仍然不太清楚,这阻碍了有效的治疗策略.
研究的目的:
- 根据不同的神经元损失模式,识别多个系统缩 (MSA) 的新型亚型.
- 利用无监督的机器学习来发现MSA中以前未被识别的疾病异质性.
主要方法:
- 应用了亚型和阶段推断 (SuStaIn) 算法来分析167例尸检确认的MSA病例中半定量评估的神经元损失.
- 在五个关键大脑区域评估了神经元损失:门,黑色物质 (SN),庞丁核,下橄细胞核 (OPC) 和小脑Purkinje细胞.
- 使用临床病理学数据验证了已识别的亚型.
主要成果:
- 确定了三种不同的MSA亚型:SN-早期 (54%),OPC-早期 (28%),以及SN-OPC同步 (19%).
- 与其他亚型相比,SN-OPC同步亚型的生存时间明显较短 (中位数为6.2年),进展更快 (57%),下降更早 (70%).
- 免疫组织化学证实了SN和OPC系统在SN-OPC同步亚型中的广泛的α-synuclein病理.
结论:
- SN-OPC同步亚型表明MSA中α-synuclein病理的多个初始播种点,挑战单向传播理论.

Aggression
30.1K
Humans engage in aggression when they seek to cause harm or pain to another person. Aggression takes two forms depending on one’s motives: hostile or instrumental. Hostile aggression is motivated by feelings of anger with intent to cause pain; a fight in a bar with a stranger is an example of hostile aggression. In contrast, instrumental aggression is motivated by achieving a goal and does not necessarily involve intent to cause pain (Berkowitz, 1993); a contract killer who murders for...

Machines
559
Machines are complex structures consisting of movable, pin-connected multi-force members that work together to transmit forces. One example of a machine is the cutting plier, which is used to cut wires by applying forces to its handles. When equal and opposite forces are exerted on the handles of the cutting plier, they cause the cutting edges to come together and apply equal and opposite reaction forces on the wire, which are greater than the applied forces.

Machines are complex structures consisting of movable, pin-connected multi-force members that work together to transmit forces. Consider a lifting tong carrying a 100 kg load. It comprises movable sections DAF and CBG linked together with member AB.

Adrenergic Receptors: ɑ Subtype
2.8K
Adrenoceptors are classified into α and ꞵ classes based on their potencies to catecholamine agonists. α-adrenoceptors show the following order of catecholamine potency:
Adrenaline ≥ Noradrenaline >> Isoprenaline
α-adrenoceptors are further divided into α1 and α2-adrenoceptors.
α1-Adrenoceptors: These receptors are located postsynaptically on the effector organs and cause constriction of smooth muscle mediated by activation of phospholipase...

Adrenergic Receptors: β Subtype
3.6K
β-adrenoceptors have varied sensitivities towards adrenaline, noradrenaline, and isoprenaline. The order of agonist potency is as follows:
Isoprenaline > Adrenaline > Noradrenaline
Neurotransmitter binding to these receptors causes activation of adenylyl cyclase resulting in increased concentrations of cAMP and modulation of calcium ion channels within the cell. They are further classified into β1, β2, and β3 subtypes.
β1-adrenoceptors: β1-adrenoceptors...
