Under certain environmental conditions, it has massive outbreaks, resulting in attacks of healthy trees, becoming a forest pest. It has been proposed that the bark beetle’s microbiome plays a key role in the insect’s ecology, providing nutrients, inhibiting pathogens, and degrading tree defense compounds, among other probable traits. During a study of bacterial associates from I. typographus, we isolated three strains identified as Pseudomonas from different beetle life stages. In this work, we aimed to reveal the taxonomic status of these bacterial strains and to sequence and annotate their genomes to mine possible traits related to a role within the bark beetle holobiont.

  • Epidemiology of Mucopolysaccharidoses Update
    diagnostics Review Epidemiology of Mucopolysaccharidoses Update Betul Celik 1,2 , Saori C. Tomatsu 2 , Shunji Tomatsu 1 and Shaukat A. Khan 1,* 1 Nemours/Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children, Wilmington, DE 19803, USA; [email protected] (B.C.); [email protected] (S.T.) 2 Department of Biological Sciences, University of Delaware, Newark, DE 19716, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +302-298-7335; Fax: +302-651-6888 Abstract: Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are a group of lysosomal storage disorders caused by a lysosomal enzyme deficiency or malfunction, which leads to the accumulation of glycosaminoglycans in tissues and organs. If not treated at an early stage, patients have various health problems, affecting their quality of life and life-span. Two therapeutic options for MPS are widely used in practice: enzyme replacement therapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. However, early diagnosis of MPS is crucial, as treatment may be too late to reverse or ameliorate the disease progress. It has been noted that the prevalence of MPS and each subtype varies based on geographic regions and/or ethnic background. Each type of MPS is caused by a wide range of the mutational spectrum, mainly missense mutations. Some mutations were derived from the common founder effect. In the previous study, Khan et al. 2018 have reported the epidemiology of MPS from 22 countries and 16 regions. In this study, we aimed to update the prevalence of MPS across the world. We have collected and investigated 189 publications related to the prevalence of MPS via PubMed as of December 2020. In total, data from 33 countries and 23 regions were compiled and analyzed.

  • List of Approved Ndas for Biological Products That Were Deemed to Be Blas on March 23, 2020
    List of Approved NDAs for Biological Products That Were Deemed to be BLAs on March 23, 2020 On March 23, 2020, an approved application for a biological product under section 505 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) was deemed to be a license for the biological product under section 351 of the Public Health Service Act (PHS Act) (see section 7002(e)(4)(A) of the Biologics Price Competition and Innovation Act of 2009). To enhance transparency and facilitate planning for the March 23, 2020, transition date, FDA compiled a preliminary list of approved applications for biological products under the FD&C Act that were listed in FDA’s Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations (the Orange Book) and that would be affected by this transition provision. FDA posted this list on the FDA website in December 2018, and periodically updated this list before the March 23, 2020, transition date. The September 2019 update to this preliminary list added certain administratively closed applications related to approved applications for biological products that were on the December 2018 version of this list. The January 2020 update to the preliminary list reflected a change to the definition of “biological product” made by the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020, which was enacted on December 20, 2019. Section 605 of this Act further amended the definition of a “biological product” in section 351(i) of the PHS Act to remove the parenthetical “(except any chemically synthesized polypeptide)” from the statutory category of “protein.” FDA has provided below a list of each approved application for a biological product under the FD&C Act that was deemed to be a license (i.e., an approved biologics license application (BLA)) for the biological product on March 23, 2020.

  • Inflammatory Bowel Disease Agents
    Therapeutic Class Overview Inflammatory Bowel Disease Agents INTRODUCTION • Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a spectrum of chronic idiopathic inflammatory intestinal conditions that cause gastrointestinal symptoms including diarrhea, abdominal pain, bleeding, fatigue, and weight loss. The exact cause of IBD is unknown; however, proposed etiologies involve a combination of infectious, genetic, and lifestyle factors (Bernstein et al 2015, Peppercorn 2019[a], Peppercorn 2020[c]). • Complications of IBD include hemorrhage, rectal fissures, fistulas, peri-rectal and intra-abdominal abscesses, and colon cancer. Possible extra-intestinal complications include hepatobiliary complications, anemia, arthritis and arthralgias, uveitis, skin lesions, and mood and anxiety disorders (Bernstein et al 2015). • Ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease (CD) are 2 forms of IBD that differ in pathophysiology and presentation; as a result of these differences, the approach to the treatment of each condition often differs (Peppercorn 2019[a]). • UC is characterized by recurrent episodes of inflammation of the mucosal layer of the colon. The inflammation, limited to the mucosa, commonly involves the rectum and may extend in a proximal and continuous fashion to affect other parts of the colon. The hallmark clinical symptom is an inflamed rectum with symptoms of urgency, bleeding, and tenesmus (Peppercorn 2020[c], Rubin et al 2019). • CD can involve any part of the gastrointestinal tract and is characterized by transmural inflammation and “skip areas.” Transmural inflammation may lead to fibrosis, strictures, sinus tracts, and fistulae (Peppercorn 2019[b]). • The immune system is known to play a critical role in the underlying pathogenesis of IBD. It is suggested that abnormal responses of both innate and adaptive immunity mechanisms induce aberrant intestinal tract inflammation in IBD patients (Geremia et al 2014).

    Supplementary Materials and Data of Review: The Efficacy of Probiotics, Prebiotic Inulin-Type Fructans, and Synbiotics in Human Ulcerative Colitis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Supplementary Data S1 Search strategy Only clinical trial publications and human filters were used in the literature search performed in PUBMED. The studies were searched using the terms “ulcerative colitis” in combination with “probiotic”, “synbiotic”, and “inflammatory bowel disease” in combination with “prebiotic”, “inulin”, “FOS” and “fructo-oligosaccharides”. The search in SCOPUS was performed using combinations of the terms “ulcerative colitis” AND “inulin” limited to document types “Article”. Another search used “ulcerative colitis” AND “probiotic” AND “human” limited to document type “Article” and the subareas “Medicine”, “Immunology and Microbiology” and “Health Professions” and the exact key words “Controlled Study”, “Clinical Article”, “Clinical Trials”, “Controlled Clinical Trial” and “Double-Blind Method”. An additional search using the combinations “ulcerative colitis” AND “synbiotic” AND “human” limited to document type “Article” and excluding the exact key word “Crohn Disease”.
