TL;DR: This work reports the crystal structure of the Brucella HK domain, which presents two different dimeric assemblies in the asymmetric unit: one similar to the already described canonical parallel homodimers (C) and the other, an antiparallel non-canonical (NC) dimer, each with distinct relative subdomain orientations and dimerization interfaces.

TL;DR: Results demonstrate that GA treatment can reverse the learning impairment induced by stress through a mechanism that likely involves the regulation of the cytokine balance and adult neurogenesis.
Abstract: Long-term exposure to stressful situations has deleterious effects on adult neurogenesis, behavior, and the immune system. We have previously shown that stressed BALB/c mice show poor learning performance, which correlates with an increase in the T helper 1/T helper 2 (Th1/Th2) cytokine balance. Glatiramer acetate (GA) can stimulate autoreactive T cells. In this work we investigated the effects of GA treatment on BALB/c mice exposed to chronic mild stress (CMS). Stressed mice exhibited a significant decline in their performance in the open field and Y-maze tasks, which was accompanied by a reduction in dentate gyrus neurogenesis and an altered Th1/Th2 balance. Interestingly, after 6 weeks of CMS exposure administration of GA reestablished normal levels of adult neurogenesis, restored the Th1/Th2 balance, and improved learning performance. These results demonstrate that GA treatment can reverse the learning impairment induced by stress through a mechanism that likely involves the regulation of the cytokine balance and adult neurogenesis.

TL;DR: Root hair growth dramatically expands the root surface area, thus facilitating water and nutrient uptake, and coordinates hormonal, environmental, and developmental factors to trigger polar growth.
