TL;DR: It is reported that sperm DNA from two males with an IC deletion had a normal paternal methylation pattern along 15q11–q13, and CpG-rich regions in SNURF-SNRPN and NDN, which in somatic tissues are methylated on the maternal allele, are hypomethylated in unfertilized human oocytes.
Abstract: Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a neurogenetic disorder that results from the lack of transcripts expressed from the paternal copy of the imprinted chromosomal region 15q11-q13 (refs. 1,2). In some patients, this is associated with a deletion of the SNURF-SNRPN exon 1 region inherited from the paternal grandmother and the presence of a maternal imprint on the paternal chromosome. Assuming that imprints are reset in the germ line, we and others have suggested that this region constitutes part of the 15q imprinting center (IC) and is important for the maternal to paternal imprint switch in the male germ line. Here we report that sperm DNA from two males with an IC deletion had a normal paternal methylation pattern along 15q11-q13. Similar findings were made in a mouse model. Our results indicate that the incorrect maternal methylation imprint in IC deletion patients is established de novo after fertilization. Moreover, we found that CpG-rich regions in SNURF-SNRPN and NDN, which in somatic tissues are methylated on the maternal allele, are hypomethylated in unfertilized human oocytes. Our results indicate that the normal maternal methylation imprints in 15q11-q13 also are established during or after fertilization.

TL;DR: Lower repeatability of gait analysis data in spastic children compared to normal children is found, and restricted joint range of motion due to spasticity in the group of cerebral palsy patients may be responsible for the lower repeatability.

TL;DR: The degradation performance of three Fe-based materials in a growing rat skeleton over a period of 1 year shows signs of degradation; however, the degradation proceeded rather slowly and no significant differences between the materials were detected.

TL;DR: A progression model of facial AK developing into IEC and invasive SCC is proposed based on the findings of a retrospective analysis of dermoscopic images of histopathologically diagnosed keratinocyte skin cancer.
Abstract: Background Little is known about the dermoscopic features of keratinocyte skin cancer. Objective We sought to determine the dermoscopic features of facial actinic keratosis (AK), intraepidermal carcinoma (IEC), moderately to poorly differentiated invasive squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), and well-differentiated SCC of the keratoacanthoma type. Methods This was a retrospective analysis of dermoscopic images of histopathologically diagnosed keratinocyte skin cancer. Results A total of 243 (70 AK, 71 IEC, 78 SCC, and 24 keratoacanthomas) tumors of the face from 243 patients (mean age: 71.1 years; range: 44-94 years) were analyzed. The majority of patients had a fair skin type, history of melanoma or nonmelanoma skin cancer, and multiple AK. A red pseudonetwork was significantly associated with AK ( P P P Limitations The retrospective design of our study and the lack of assessment of sensitivity and specificity of the dermoscopic criteria are limitations. Conclusions Based on our findings we propose a progression model of facial AK developing into IEC and invasive SCC.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed theoretical perspectives and models explaining collective protest, and provided a starting point for such a research program, based on correlational data from a student sample, a sample of participants of a local climate protection initiative, and visitors of a climate protection event.
