TL;DR: The findings suggest that prevention of workplace stress might decrease disease incidence; however, this strategy would have a much smaller effect than would tackling of standard risk factors, such as smoking.

TL;DR: It is shown that the isolates form assemblies resembling natural microbiota on their cognate host organs, but are also capable of ectopic leaf or root colonization, which raises the possibility of reciprocal relocation between root and leaf microbiota members.
Abstract: Roots and leaves of healthy plants host taxonomically structured bacterial assemblies, and members of these communities contribute to plant growth and health. We established Arabidopsis leaf- and root-derived microbiota culture collections representing the majority of bacterial species that are reproducibly detectable by culture-independent community sequencing. We found an extensive taxonomic overlap between the leaf and root microbiota. Genome drafts of 400 isolates revealed a large overlap of genome-encoded functional capabilities between leaf- and root-derived bacteria with few significant differences at the level of individual functional categories. Using defined bacterial communities and a gnotobiotic Arabidopsis plant system we show that the isolates form assemblies resembling natural microbiota on their cognate host organs, but are also capable of ectopic leaf or root colonization. While this raises the possibility of reciprocal relocation between root and leaf microbiota members, genome information and recolonization experiments also provide evidence for microbiota specialization to their respective niche.

TL;DR: Recommendations for the management of lupus nephritis were developed using an evidence-based approach followed by expert consensus and there is no evidence to suggest that management of LN should differ in children versus adults.
Abstract: Objectives To develop recommendations for the management of adult and paediatric lupus nephritis (LN).

TL;DR: The idea that some eukaryotes primitively lacked mitochondria and were true intermediates in the prokaryote-to-eukaryote transition was an exciting prospect, but the evolutionary gap between proKaryotes and eUKaryotes is now deeper, and the nature of the host that acquired the mitochondrion more obscure, than ever before.
Abstract: The idea that some eukaryotes primitively lacked mitochondria and were true intermediates in the prokaryote-to-eukaryote transition was an exciting prospect. It spawned major advances in understanding anaerobic and parasitic eukaryotes and those with previously overlooked mitochondria. But the evolutionary gap between prokaryotes and eukaryotes is now deeper, and the nature of the host that acquired the mitochondrion more obscure, than ever before.

TL;DR: The localization, biochemistry and physiological functions of the components of the histaminergic system, a phylogenetically old group of neurons that project to most of the central nervous system, are discussed.
Abstract: The histaminergic system in the brain is a phylogenetically old group of neurons that project to most of the central nervous system. It holds a key position in the regulation of basic body functions, including the sleep–waking cycle, energy and endocrine homeostasis, synaptic plasticity and learning. Four histamine receptors have now been cloned, and three of them are widely distributed in the mammalian brain. Here, we will discuss the localization, biochemistry and physiological functions of the components of the histaminergic system.
