Partial pancreatic duct ligation (PDL) of mouse pancreas induces a doubling of the beta-cell mass mainly through proliferation of preexisting and newly formed beta-cells. The molecular mechanism governing this process is still largely unknown. Given the inflammatory nature of PDL and inflammation-induced signaling via the signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), the activation and the role of STAT3 in PDL-induced beta-cell proliferation were investigated. Duct ligation stimulates the expression of several cytokines that can act as ligands inducing STAT3 signaling and phosphorylation in beta-cells. beta-Cell cycling increased by conditional beta-cell-specific Stat3 knockout and decreased by STAT3 activation through administration of interleukin-6. In addition, the level of DNA damage in beta-cells of PDL pancreas increased after deletion of Stat3. These data indicate a role for STAT3 in maintaining a steady state in the beta-cell, by modulating its cell cycle and protection from DNA damage.

Discovery and 3D imaging of a novel ΔNp63-expressing basal cell type in human pancreatic ducts with implications in disease

Real, Meritxell Rovira, Ilse Rooman

Summary: In larger human pancreatic ducts, basal cells exist. Delta Np63 suppresses duct cell identity. These cells may play an important role in pancreatic disease, including PDAC ontogeny, but are not present in mouse models.

Summary: Our study showed inferior performance of the Roche SARS-CoV-2 Rapid Antigen test (SD Biosensor) for detection of SARS-CoV-2, limiting its use as a diagnostic gatekeeper in ER departments, but it is able to differentiate contagious individuals.

Summary: This study reports the levels of neutralizing antibodies against Wuhan, Delta, and Omicron variants in different groups of individuals. The findings support the use of booster vaccines to prevent infection and disease caused by the Omicron variant.

CTLA4, SH2B3, and CLEC16A diversely affect the progression of early islet autoimmunity in relatives of Type 1 diabetes patients

Summary: The HLA region is the major genetic risk determinant of Type 1 diabetes. Non-HLA loci, such as INS, SH2B3, PTPN2, PTPN22, CTLA4, CLEC16A, and IL2RA, may also contribute to the genetic risk by impacting the progression of asymptomatic autoimmunity. In this study, the researchers investigated the relationship between SNPs in these susceptibility loci and the progression from single to multiple autoantibody positivity, as well as the development of clinical diabetes. They found that certain genotypes in CTLA4 and CLEC16A were associated with accelerated progression from single to multiple autoantibody positivity, but their effects were limited to specific conditions. The interaction between CTLA4 and HLA-DQ2/DQ8 was found to override the effect of HLA-DQ2/DQ8 alone. The study also showed that SH2B3 genotype was protective for HLA-DQ8 positive subjects, while CTLA4 genotype was a minor independent risk factor for progression towards clinical diabetes. The findings suggest that non-HLA polymorphisms impact the progression of islet autoimmunity in specific ways and may have implications for risk assessment and prevention trials in at-risk groups.

DeltaMSI: artificial intelligence-based modeling of microsatellite instability scoring on next-generation sequencing data

Summary: This study aimed to use machine learning to process the complexity of indel distributions and integrate it into a robust script for dMMR screening on small gene panel-based NGS data of clinical tumor samples. The results showed that the novel script (DeltaMSI) achieved higher robustness and diagnostic power compared to the widely used script mSINGS, indicating its clinical potential for high-throughput MSI screening in all tumor types.

Summary: We present a case of a 2.5-year-old boy with a pure androgen-secreting adrenocortical tumor, characterized by penile enlargement, pubic hair, frequent erections, and rapid linear growth. The diagnosis was confirmed through laboratory tests, medical imaging, and histology. Additionally, genetic testing revealed a pathogenic germline variant in the TP53 gene, confirming an underlying Li-Fraumeni syndrome.

From Delta to Omicron SARS-CoV-2 variant: Switch to saliva sampling for higher detection rate

Margot Cornette, Bieke Decaesteker, Geert Antoine Martens, Patricia Vandecandelaere, Stijn Jonckheere

Summary: This study evaluated the performance of oropharyngeal swab, nasopharyngeal swab, and saliva in detecting SARS-CoV-2 Delta and Omicron variants using RT-PCR. The results showed that saliva was superior to nasopharyngeal swab in detecting the Omicron variant. For the Delta variant, nasopharyngeal swab and saliva were considered equivalent specimens. Oropharyngeal swab was the least sensitive sample type and provided little additional value when collected in addition to a single nasopharyngeal swab.
