A Novel Depression Risk Prediction Model Using NHANES Data With Mendelian Randomization Validation by Lin Lin, Liqun Zhang, Jingdong Zhang, Dapeng Ding

“…This study aimed to develop and validate a practical depression risk prediction model based on commonly available biochemical markers, facilitating widespread early screening and timely intervention in general clinical settings. Methods We formulated a model for depression, scrutinizing an assortment of biochemical indicators and their bidirectional interrelationships with depression, employing data derived from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) and leveraging the Mendelian randomization (MR) approach, a method that utilizes genetic variants as instrumental proxies to ascertain causal nexus between risk determinants and diseases. …”

Exploring the synergy between fungal CE15 glucuronoyl esterases and xylanases for lignocellulose saccharification by Christina Pentari, Constantinos Katsimpouras, Mireille Haon, Jean-Guy Berrin, Anastasia Zerva, Evangelos Topakas

“…Results In this study, two CE15 glucuronoyl esterases from the white-rot fungi Artolenzites elegans and Trametes ljubarskyi were heterologously expressed in Pichia pastoris and biochemically characterized on the model substrate D-glucuronic acid ester with cinnamyl alcohol and a variety of pretreated lignocellulosic biomasses. The pretreatment method was shown to be a determining factor in revealing both the activity of the esterases on lignocellulose and their synergistic relationships with other hemicellulases. …”
