Initial treatment strategies include reducing medication dosage, switching medications, or using drugs to suppress symptoms. One of the therapeutic targets for tardive dyskinesia is vesicular monoamine transporter-2 (VMAT-2, also known as solute carrier family 18 member A2 [SLC18A2]), which functions as an energy-dependent transporter of monoamines. The therapeutic drugs are used during adulthood, when neurons are maturing. For the first time, we report that treatment with a chemical VMAT-2 inhibitor reduces neuronal process elongation, a phenomenon commonly observed during development. Treatment with the inhibitors reserpine or tetrabenazine decreased process elongation in primary cortical neurons, and similar results were obtained in N1E-115 neuronal model cells undergoing process elongation. Knockdown of VMAT-2 using clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)/Cas13-fitted guide RNA also reduced process elongation. However, treatment with reserpine or tetrabenazine did not affect the morphology of mature processes. Notably, treatment with hesperetin, a citrus flavonoid with neuroprotective effects, was able to restore the reduced process elongation induced by these inhibitors or VMAT-2 knockdown. The underlying molecular mechanism appeared to involve neuronal differentiation-related Akt kinase signaling. These results suggest that VMAT-2, as a drug target for tardive dyskinesia, plays a key role in process elongation and that some inhibitory effects of VMAT-2-targeted drugs on its elongation may be mitigated by co-administering a neuroprotective molecule.</p>","PeriodicalId":21811,"journal":{"name":"Scientific Reports","volume":"15 1","pages":"12049"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143811974","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The morphological study refined the structural features of the calyx in representatives of the genus and a hypothetical scheme of calyx evolution was proposed based on morphological evidence and new molecular data. In addition, the application of an ultrastructural approach allowed clarification of the calyx structure in Metacineta alata, which possesses unique crests, instead of the typical clefts found in the majority of congeners. Our phylogenetic analysis showed that Metacineta is nested within the order Endogenida instead of clustering with the exogenid members.

This study aimed to evaluate the impact of the pandemic on poisoning-induced out-of-hospital cardiac arrest characteristics and survival in South Korea. Participants: Adult patients (aged ≥ 19 years) who experienced poisoning-induced out-of-hospital cardiac arrest before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study utilized data from the Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest Surveillance Database from 2016 to 2022. Poisoning-induced out-of-hospital cardiac arrest cases were compared before and during the pandemic by analyzing patient demographics, poisoning agents, prehospital interventions, and outcomes. Multivariate logistic regression identified predictors of survival. During the pandemic, poisoning-induced out-of-hospital cardiac arrest cases involving alcohol, organic solvents, and unspecified drugs increased, while pesticide-related cases declined. Bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation rates rose, yet survival rates fell (adjusted OR 0.59, CI 0.44-0.80). Prehospital return of spontaneous circulation and witnessed arrests remained the strongest predictors of survival (adjusted OR 13.93 and 4.09, respectively).

By employing the inclined strip method to construct velocity fields, the program enables more precise calculations of permanent slope displacements. To validate the effectiveness and accuracy of the improved method, calculations were conducted on both ideal slope models and real-world slope models. For the ideal soil and rock slope models, the results from the improved Newmark program were consistent with those obtained using the pseudo-static method and commercial software, demonstrating its strong applicability and accuracy. Furthermore, normalized artificial seismic waves, the Loma Prieta earthquake wave, and the Wenchuan earthquake wave, each with varying amplification factors, were input into the actual slope model of a colluvial deposit at the C<sub>1</sub> hydropower station in Tibet. A comparison of these results with existing data revealed that the improved Newmark program produced calculations that closely matched real-world observations.
