The consumption of cannabinoid products during pregnancy has been associated with various abnormal outcomes, although historical studies were conducted during a time when the potency of these products was approximately 300% lower than that of current products. Given the rising use of cannabinoids, it is essential to understand the potential impacts PCE may have on fetal neurodevelopment and subsequent infant and child development. Previous studies have demonstrated that PCE negatively affects learning and memory, behavioral skills, sleep, and attention in offspring. The aim of this study is to recapitulate PCE through voluntary ingestion of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the psychoactive component of cannabinoid products, during pregnancy in a preclinical model. This article outlines the procedure for achieving moderate PCE throughout gestation. In this model, the control group consumes plain mini-chocolate/peanut butter cookies, while the PCE group consumes THC mixed into peanut butter paired with mini-chocolate cookies.

Traditionally bred and reared in flexible-film or semi-rigid isolators, germ-free mouse husbandry and experimental manipulation are costly and require numerous trained staff and a large space footprint in animal housing facilities. The IsoPositive caging system allows for experimental manipulation of germ-free mice in individual, hermetically-sealed, positive-pressure isolator cages (isocages), reducing cost and enabling greater flexibility in experimental manipulations. Here, a protocol is described for transferring germ-free mice from breeding isolators to isocages and subsequent fecal transfer from human donor stool into mice to create stable long-term gut \"humanized\" mice for future studies. The materials and preparation needed for the utilization of the isocage system are described, including the use of chlorine-dioxide sterilant chemical sterilant to clean cages, supplies, equipment, and personal protective equipment. The methods for confirming the germ-free status of transferred mice and how to determine contamination in the caging system are discussed. The procedure for husbandry, including bedding, food, and water supply, is further discussed. The protocol for human fecal slurry preparation and gavage into germ-free mice to create gut \"humanized\" mice, along with stool collection to monitor the microbial community composition of these mice, are described. An experiment illustrates that two weeks post-human fecal transplant allows for stable colonization of donor microbiota in the murine hosts, enabling subsequent experimental usage. Furthermore, the collection of humanized mouse feces in viability preservation media, enabling use in further functional experiments, is described. Overall, these methods allow for the safe and effective establishment of humanized mouse communities in experimental gnotobiotic cages for further manipulation.</p>","PeriodicalId":48787,"journal":{"name":"Jove-Journal of Visualized Experiments","volume":" 216","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143651586","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Most commonly, mildly reactive, electrophilic small molecules are employed to form covalent bonds with select cysteine side chains in specific proteins. Electrophile-first approaches of ligand discovery, whereby a library of electrophilic small molecules are screened against a protein target, have become popular as they avoid the need for time-consuming downstream installation of an electrophilic warhead. Such screening is complicated, however, as electrophilic ligands can exhibit a wide range of different rates of spontaneous reaction with cysteines. Quantitative-irreversible tethering (qIT) offers a fluorescence-based method for hit identification and development that normalizes data for these differences in intrinsic compound reactivity. Rates of reaction of individual compounds with a target protein are determined and compared to compound reactivity with the unstructured tripeptide glutathione (this being a proxy for spontaneous compound reaction), enabling the identification of compounds that preferentially react with the protein of interest. This methodology has been successfully applied to identify selective covalent fragments against several drug targets, including SARS-CoV-2 main protease, cyclin-dependent kinase 2, and RAP27A. Here, we demonstrate the application of qIT to a target protein to generate a quantitative and robust data set, allowing prioritization of hit ligands for future development.</p>","PeriodicalId":48787,"journal":{"name":"Jove-Journal of Visualized Experiments","volume":" 216","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143651464","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition to a thorough understanding of the anatomy of the caudate lobe tumor, comprehensive imaging assessment, and three-dimensional reconstruction, the flexible choice of surgical approach is also key to reducing surgical difficulty and improving safety. We perform laparoscopic caudate lobectomy using a left-sided approach, especially when the tumor is located in the area of the caudate lobe close to the inferior vena cava. This method avoids the step of splitting the liver substance to expose the field of view required by the traditional anterior approach, with the advantages of larger operating space and shorter operation time.

Total cell protein extracts from human macrophages were generated, then incubated with whole cells of M. tuberculosis (WCMtb) or M. tuberculosis antigens (Mtb Ags) overnight at 4 °C and finally cross-linked using formaldehyde/glycine/ethylene glycol bis (succinimidyl succinate) treatment.

After cross-linking treatment, SLAMF1 was visualized using primary (anti-SLAMF1) and secondary (Alexa Fluor 488) antibodies.

This study evaluated the effects of varying step widths on lower limb biomechanics at different running speeds. Thirteen healthy Chinese males (aged 20-24) participated in the study, running at speeds of 3.0 m/s and 3.7 m/s using six distinct step widths: the preferred step width and five variations (reductions of 13% and 6.5%, and increases of 6.5%, 13%, and 25%, based on leg length). Data were collected using a motion capture system and force plates and analyzed through repeated measures ANOVA and correlation tests. The results indicated that wider step widths significantly reduced peak knee abduction moments and hip adduction angles, whereas narrower step widths increased knee joint loading. These findings have important implications for clinicians and runners, suggesting that careful step width selection can help reduce injury risk and enhance running efficiency.

The multistep process of sprouting angiogenesis is a molecularly and mechanically driven process. It consists of induction of cellular sprout by vascular endothelial growth factor, leader/follower cell selection through Notch signaling, directed migration of endothelial cells, and vessel fusion and stabilization. A variety of sprouting angiogenesis models have been developed over the years to better understand the underlying mechanisms of cellular sprouting. Despite advancements in understanding the molecular drivers of sprouting angiogenesis, the role of mechanical cues and the mechanical driver of sprouting angiogenesis remains underexplored due to limitations in existing models. In this study, we designed a 2.5D ex vivo model that enables us to mechanically characterize cellular sprouting from a porcine carotid artery using traction force microscopy. The model identifies distinct force patterns within the sprout, where leader cells exert pulling forces and follower cells exert pushing forces on the matrix. The model's versatility allows for the manipulation of both chemical and mechanical cues, such as matrix stiffness, enhancing its relevance to various microenvironments. Here, we demonstrate that the onset of sprouting angiogenesis is stiffness-dependent.
