Abstract
Phenol-soluble modulins (PSMs) are the primary proteinaceous component of Staphylococcus aureus biofilms. Residence in the protective environment of biofilms allows bacteria to rapidly evolve and acquire antimicrobial resistance, which can lead to persistent infections such as those caused by methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA). In their soluble form, PSMs hinder the immune response of the host and can increase the virulence potential of MRSA. PSMs also self-assemble into insoluble functional amyloids that contribute to the structural scaffold of biofilms. The specific roles of PSM peptides in biofilms remain poorly understood. Here, we report the development of a genetically tractable yeast model system for studying the properties of PSMα peptides. Expression of PSMα peptides in yeast drives the formation of toxic insoluble aggregates that adopt vesicle-like structures. Using this system, we probed the molecular drivers of PSMα aggregation to delineate key similarities and differences among the PSMs and identified a crucial residue that drives PSM features. Biofilms are a major public health threat; thus, biofilm disruption is a key goal. To solubilize aggregates comprised of a diverse range of amyloid and amyloid-like species, we have developed engineered variants of Hsp104, a hexameric AAA+ protein disaggregase from yeast. Here, we demonstrate that potentiated Hsp104 variants counter the toxicity and aggregation of PSMα peptides. Further, we demonstrate that a potentiated Hsp104 variant can drive the disassembly of preformed S. aureus biofilms. We suggest that this new yeast model can be a powerful platform for screening for agents that disrupt PSM aggregation and that Hsp104 disaggregases could be a promising tool for the safe enzymatic disruption of biofilms. IMPORTANCE Biofilms are complex mixtures secreted by bacteria that form a material in which the bacteria can become embedded. This process transforms the properties of the bacteria, and they become more resistant to removal, which can give rise to multidrug-resistant strains, such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Here, we study phenol-soluble modulins (PSMs), which are amyloidogenic proteins secreted by S. aureus, that become incorporated into biofilms. Biofilms are challenging to study, so we have developed a new genetically tractable yeast model to study the PSMs. We used our system to learn about several key features of the PSMs. We also demonstrate that variants of an amyloid disaggregase, Hsp104, can disrupt the PSMs and, more importantly, dissolve preformed S. aureus biofilms. We propose that our system can be a powerful screening tool and that Hsp104 disaggregases may be a new avenue to explore for biofilm disruption agents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Trisomy 21 causes Down syndrome (DS) and is a recognized cause of early-onset Alzheimer’s disease (AD). OBJECTIVE: The current study sought to determine if premorbid intellectual disability level (ID) was associated with variability in age-trajectories of AD biomarkers and cognitive impairments. General linear mixed models compared the age-trajectory of the AD biomarkers PET Aβ and tau and cognitive decline across premorbid ID levels (mild, moderate, and severe/profound), in models controlling trisomy type, APOE status, biological sex, and site. METHODS: Analyses involved adults with DS from the Alzheimer’s Biomarkers Consortium-Down Syndrome. Participants completed measures of memory, mental status, and visuospatial ability. Premorbid ID level was based on IQ or mental age scores prior to dementia concerns. PET was acquired using [11C] PiB for Aβ, and [18F] AV-1451 for tau. RESULTS: Cognitive data was available for 361 participants with a mean age of 45.22 (SD = 9.92) and PET biomarker data was available for 154 participants. There was not a significant effect of premorbid ID level by age on cognitive outcomes. There was not a significant effect of premorbid ID by age on PET Aβ or on tau PET. There was not a significant difference in age at time of study visit of those with mild cognitive impairment-DS or dementia by premorbid ID level. CONCLUSION: Findings provide robust evidence of a similar time course in AD trajectory across premorbid ID levels, laying the groundwork for the inclusion of individuals with DS with a variety of IQ levels in clinical AD trials.

Abstract
Background: Evobrutinib is an oral, central nervous system (CNS)-penetrant and highly selective covalent Bruton’s tyrosine kinase inhibitor under clinical development for patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS). Objective: To investigate the effect of evobrutinib on immune responses in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccinated patients with RMS from a Phase II trial (NCT02975349). Methods: A post hoc analysis of patients with RMS who received evobrutinib 75 mg twice daily and SARS-CoV-2 vaccines during the open-label extension (n = 45) was conducted. Immunoglobulin (Ig)G anti-S1/S2-specific SARS-CoV-2 antibodies were measured using an indirect chemiluminescence immunoassay. Results: In the vaccinated subgroup, mean/minimum evobrutinib exposure pre-vaccination was 105.2/88.7 weeks. In total, 43 of 45 patients developed/increased S1/S2 IgG antibody levels post-vaccination; one patient’s antibody response remained negative post-vaccination and the other had antibody levels above the upper limit of detection, both pre- and post-vaccination. Most patients (n = 36/45), regardless of pre-vaccination serostatus, had a 10–100-fold increase of antibody levels pre- to post-vaccination. Antibody levels post-booster were higher versus post-vaccination. Conclusion: These results suggest evobrutinib, an investigational drug with therapeutic potential for patients with RMS, acts as an immunomodulator, that is, it inhibits aberrant immune cell responses in patients with RMS, while responsiveness to foreign de novo and recall antigens is maintained. © The Author(s), 2023.

Abstract
Background: Intrusive traumatic re-experiencing domain (ITRED) was recently introduced as a novel perspective on posttraumatic psychopathology, proposing to focus research of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) on the unique symptoms of intrusive and involuntary re-experiencing of the trauma, namely, intrusive memories, nightmares, and flashbacks. The aim of the present study was to explore ITRED from a neural network connectivity perspective. Methods: Data were collected from 9 sites taking part in the ENIGMA (Enhancing Neuro Imaging Genetics through Meta Analysis) PTSD Consortium (n = 584) and included itemized PTSD symptom scores and resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC) data. We assessed the utility of rsFC in classifying PTSD, ITRED-only (no PTSD diagnosis), and trauma-exposed (TE)–only (no PTSD or ITRED) groups using a machine learning approach, examining well-known networks implicated in PTSD. A random forest classification model was built on a training set using cross-validation, and the averaged cross-validation model performance for classification was evaluated using the area under the curve. The model was tested using a fully independent portion of the data (test dataset), and the test area under the curve was evaluated. Results: rsFC signatures differentiated TE-only participants from PTSD and ITRED-only participants at about 60% accuracy. Conversely, rsFC signatures did not differentiate PTSD from ITRED-only individuals (45% accuracy). Common features differentiating TE-only participants from PTSD and ITRED-only participants mainly involved default mode network–related pathways. Some unique features, such as connectivity within the frontoparietal network, differentiated TE-only participants from one group (PTSD or ITRED-only) but to a lesser extent from the other group. Conclusions: Neural network connectivity supports ITRED as a novel neurobiologically based approach to classifying posttrauma psychopathology. © 2023 The Authors

Abstract
Epilepsy is a highly heritable disorder affecting over 50 million people worldwide, of which about one-third are resistant to current treatments. Here we report a multi-ancestry genome-wide association study including 29,944 cases, stratified into three broad categories and seven subtypes of epilepsy, and 52,538 controls. We identify 26 genome-wide significant loci, 19 of which are specific to genetic generalized epilepsy (GGE). We implicate 29 likely causal genes underlying these 26 loci. SNP-based heritability analyses show that common variants explain between 39.6% and 90% of genetic risk for GGE and its subtypes. Subtype analysis revealed markedly different genetic architectures between focal and generalized epilepsies. Gene-set analyses of GGE signals implicate synaptic processes in both excitatory and inhibitory neurons in the brain. Prioritized candidate genes overlap with monogenic epilepsy genes and with targets of current antiseizure medications. Finally, we leverage our results to identify alternate drugs with predicted efficacy if repurposed for epilepsy treatment. © 2023, The Author(s).
