Machine learning-based meta-analysis reveals gut microbiome alterations associated with Parkinson's disease

1 year 6 months ago
There is strong interest in using the gut microbiome for Parkinson's disease (PD) diagnosis and treatment. However, a consensus on PD-associated microbiome features and a multi-study assessment of their diagnostic value is lacking. Here, we present a machine learning meta-analysis of PD microbiome studies of unprecedented scale (4489 samples). Within most studies, microbiome-based machine learning models accurately classify PD patients (average AUC 71.9%). However, these models are...

Hedgehog-interacting protein orchestrates alveologenesis and protects against bronchopulmonary dysplasia and emphysema

1 year 6 months ago
Most of the lung's gas-exchange surface forms during alveologenesis and its disruption causes bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in infants, characterized by alveolar simplification and myofibroblast accumulation. BPD also increases the risk of adult emphysema, marked by alveolar loss. Despite this connection, mechanisms linking these conditions and effective treatments are still lacking. We identify hedgehog-interacting protein (HHIP), associated with both BPD and emphysema, as a critical...

Adaptations to marine environments and the evolution of slow-paced life histories in endotherms

1 year 6 months ago
All organisms face a certain risk of dying before reproducing, putting strong pressure on individuals to reproduce as early as possible. Despite this, some organisms delay maturity, defer reproduction, and age slowly. The evolution of such slow-paced life is classically attributed to allometric effects and reduced extrinsic mortality, but might also result from the invasion of challenging environments requiring adaptations that boost adult survival yet impose substantial energetic and...

PLA2G15 is a BMP hydrolase and its targeting ameliorates lysosomal disease

1 year 6 months ago
Lysosomes catabolize lipids and other biological molecules, maintaining cellular and organismal homeostasis. Bis(monoacylglycero)phosphate (BMP), a major lipid constituent of intralysosomal vesicles, stimulates lipid-degrading enzymes and is altered in various human conditions, including neurodegenerative diseases^(1,2). Although lysosomal BMP synthase was recently discovered³, the enzymes mediating BMP turnover remain elusive. Here we show that lysosomal phospholipase PLA2G15 is a physiological...
