The pathogenesis of Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) is linked to the loss of intestinal tolerance and barrier function. The healthy mucosal immune system has previously been shown to be inert against food antigens. Since the small intestine is the main contact surface for antigens and therefore the immunological response, the present study served to analyse food-antigen-specific T cells in the peripheral blood of IBD patients. Methods: Peripheral blood mononuclear cells of CD, with an affected small intestine, and UC (colitis) patients, either active or in remission, were stimulated with the following food antigens: gluten, soybean, peanut and ovalbumin. Healthy controls and celiac disease patients were included as controls. Antigen-activated CD4+ T cells in the peripheral blood were analysed by a magnetic enrichment of CD154+ effector T cells and a cytometric antigen-reactive T-cell analysis ('ARTE' technology) followed by characterisation of the ef- fector response. Results: The effector T-cell response of antigen-specific T cells were compared between CD with small intestinal inflammation and UC where inflammation was restricted to the colon. Among all tested food antigens, the highest frequency of antigen-specific T cells (CD4+CD154+) was found for gluten. Celiac disease patients were included as control, since gluten has been identified as the disease- causing antigen. The highest frequency of gluten antigen-specific T cells was revealed in active CD when compared with UC, celiac disease on a gluten-free diet (GFD) and healthy controls. Ovalbuminspecific T cells were almost undetectable, whereas the reaction to soybean and peanut was slightly higher. But again, the strong- est reaction was observed in CD with small intestinal involvement compared with UC. Remarkably, in celiac disease on a GFD only antigen-specific cells for gluten were detected. These gluten-specific T cells were characterised by up-regulation of the pro-inflammatory cytokines IFN-γ, IL-17A and TNF-α. IFN-g was exclusively elevated in CD patients with active disease. Gluten-specific T-cells expressing IL-17A were increased in all IBD patients. Furthermore, T cells of CD patients, independent of disease activity, revealed a high expression of the pro-inflammatory cytokine TNF-α. Conclusion: The 'ARTE'-technique allows to analyse and quantify food antigen specific T cells in the peripheral blood of IBD patients indicating a potential therapeutic insight. These data provide evidence that small intestinal inflammation in CD is key for the development of a systemic pro-inflammatory effector T-cell response driven by food antigens.}, language = {en} } @misc{PaoliMoroLorenzettietal.2020, author = {Paoli, Antonio and Moro, Tatiana and Lorenzetti, Silvio and Seiler, Jan and L{\"u}thy, Fabian and Gross, Micah and Roggio, Federico and Chaabene, Helmi and Musumeci, Giuseppe}, title = {The "Journal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology" Journal Club Series}, series = {Journal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology}, volume = {5}, journal = {Journal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology}, number = {2}, publisher = {MDPI}, address = {Basel}, issn = {2411-5142}, doi = {10.3390/jfmk5020025}, pages = {1 -- 9}, year = {2020}, abstract = {We are glad to introduce the Second Journal Club of Volume Five, Second Issue.

CAI is related to a variety of motor adaptations at the lower extremities. Previous investigations identified increased muscle activities while landing in CAI compared to healthy control participants. However, it remains unclear whether muscular alterations at the knee muscles are limited to the involved (unstable) ankle or are also present at the uninvolved leg. The latter might potentially indicate a risk of ankle sprain or future injury on the uninvolved leg. Purpose: To assess if there is a difference of knee muscle activities between the involved and uninvolved leg in participants with CAI during perturbed walking. Method: 10 participants (6 females; 4 males; 26±4 years; 169±9 cm; 65±7 kg) with unilateral CAI walked on a split-belt treadmill (1m/s) for 5 minutes of baseline walking and 6 minutes of perturbed walking (left and right side, each 10 perturbations). Electromyography (EMG) measurements were performed at biceps femoris (BF) and rectus femoris (RF). EMG amplitude (RMS; normalized to MVIC) were analyzed for 200ms pre-heel contact (Pre200), 100ms post heel contact (Post100) and 200ms after perturbation (Pert200). Data was analyzed by paired t-test/Wilcoxon test based on presence or absence of normal distribution (Bonferroni adjusted α level p≤ 0.0125). Results: No statistical difference was found between involved and uninvolved leg for RF (Pre200: 4±2\% and 11± 22\%, respectively, p= 0.878; Post100: 10± 5 and 18±31\%, p=0.959; Pert200: 6±3\% and 13±24\%, p=0.721) as well as for BF (Pre200: 12±7\% and 11±6, p=0.576; Post100: 10±7\% and 9±7\%, p=0.732; Pert200: 7±4 and 7±7\%, p=0.386). Discussion: No side differences in muscle activity could be revealed for assessed feedforward and feedback responses (perturbed and unperturbed) in unilateral CAI. Reduced inter-individual variability of muscular activities at the involved leg might indicate a rather stereotypical response pattern. It remains to be investigated, whether muscular control at the knee is not affected by CAI, or whether both sides adapted in a similar style to the chronic condition at the ankle.}, language = {en} } @misc{MorenoRomeroProbstTrindadeetal.2020, author = {Moreno-Romero, Jordi and Probst, Aline V. and Trindade, In{\^e}s and Kalyanikrishna, and Engelhorn, Julia and Farrona, Sara}, title = {Looking At the Past and Heading to the Future}, series = {Frontiers in Plant Science}, volume = {10}, journal = {Frontiers in Plant Science}, number = {1795}, publisher = {Frontiers Media}, address = {Lausanne}, issn = {1664-462X}, doi = {10.3389/fpls.2019.01795}, pages = {1 -- 12}, year = {2020}, abstract = {In June 2019, more than a hundred plant researchers met in Cologne, Germany, for the 6th European Workshop on Plant Chromatin (EWPC). This conference brought together a highly dynamic community of researchers with the common aim to understand how chromatin organization controls gene expression, development, and plant responses to the environment. New evidence showing how epigenetic states are set, perpetuated, and inherited were presented, and novel data related to the three-dimensional organization of chromatin within the nucleus were discussed. At the level of the nucleosome, its composition by different histone variants and their specialized histone deposition complexes were addressed as well as the mechanisms involved in histone post-translational modifications and their role in gene expression. The keynote lecture on plant DNA methylation by Julie Law (SALK Institute) and the tribute session to Lars Hennig, honoring the memory of one of the founders of the EWPC who contributed to promote the plant chromatin and epigenetic field in Europe, added a very special note to this gathering.

People with CAI show altered muscle activation in proximal joints such as hip and knee. However, evidence is limited as controversial results have been presented regarding changes in activation of hip muscles in CAI population. PURPOSE: To investigate the effect of CAI on activity of hip muscles during normal walking and walking with perturbations. METHODS: 8 subjects with CAI (23 ± 2 years, 171 ± 7 cm and 65 ± 4 kg) and 8 controls (CON) matched by age, height, weight and dominant leg (25 ± 3 years, 172 ± 7 cm and 65 ± 6 kg) walked shoed on a split-belt treadmill (1 m/s). Subjects performed 5 minutes of baseline walking and 6 minutes walking with 10 perturbations (at 200 ms after heel contact with 42 m/s2 deceleration impulse) on each side. Electromyography signals from gluteus medius (Gmed) and gluteus maximus (Gmax) were recorded while walking. Muscle amplitudes (Root Mean Square normalized to maximum voluntary isometric contraction) were calculated at 200 ms before heel contact (Pre200), 100 ms after heel contact (Post100) during normal walking and 200 ms after perturbations (Pert200). Differences between groups were examined using Mann Whitney U test and Bonferroni correction to account for multiple testing (adjust α level p≤ 0.0125). RESULT: In Gmed, CAI group showed lower muscle amplitude than CON group after heel contact (Post100: 18±7 \% and 47±21 \%, p< .01) and after walking perturbations ( 31±13 \% and 62±26 \%, p< .01), but not before heel contact (Pre200: 5±2 \% and 11±10 \%, p= 0.195). In Gmax, no difference was found between CAI and CON groups in all three time points (Pre200: 12±5 \% and 17±12 \%, p= 0.574; Post100: 41±21 \% and 41±13 \%, p= 1.00; Pert200: 79±46 \% and 62±35 \%, p= 0.505). CONCLUSION: People with CAI activated Gmed less than healthy control in feedback mechanism (after heel contact and walking with perturbations), but not in feedforward mechanism (before heel contact). Less activation on Gmed may affect the balance in frontal plane and increase the risk of recurrent ankle sprain, giving way or feeling ankle instability in patients with CAI during walking. Future studies should investigate the effect of Gmed strengthening or neuromuscular training on CAI rehabilitation.}, language = {en} } @misc{Kohler2020, author = {Kohler, Ulrich}, title = {Editorial: Survey Research Methods during the COVID-19 Crisis}, series = {Survey Research Methods}, volume = {14}, journal = {Survey Research Methods}, number = {2}, address = {Konstanz}, issn = {1864-3361}, doi = {10.18148/srm/2020.v14i2.7769}, pages = {93 -- 94}, year = {2020}, language = {en} } @misc{JoostBrechtMayeretal.2020, author = {Joost, Theresa Anna and Brecht, Pia and Mayer, Frank and Cassel, Michael}, title = {Feasibility of open low-field MRI measurements in adolescent athletes with spondylolisthesis}, series = {Medicine and science in sports and exercise : official journal of the American College of Sports Medicine}, volume = {52}, journal = {Medicine and science in sports and exercise : official journal of the American College of Sports Medicine}, number = {17}, publisher = {Lippincott Williams \& Wilkins}, address = {Philadelphia}, issn = {0195-9131}, doi = {10.1249/01.mss.0000683832.74059.9d}, pages = {790 -- 790}, year = {2020}, abstract = {PURPOSE: To determine the feasibility of upright compared to supine MRI measurements to determine characteristics of the lumbar spine in AA with spondylolisthesis. METHODS: Ten AA (n=10; m/f: 4/6; 14.5±1.7y; 163±7cm; 52±8kg) from various sports, diagnosed with spondylolisthesis grade I-II Meyerding confirmed by x-ray in standing lateral view, were included. Open low-field MRI images (0.25 Tesla) in upright (82°) and supine (0°) position were evaluated by two observers. Medical imaging software was used to measure the anterior translation (AT, mm), lumbosacral joint angle (LSJA, °) and lordosis angle (LA, °). Reliability was analyzed by the intra-rater correlation coefficient (ICC) and standard error of measurements (SEM). RESULTS: Due to motion artifacts during upright position, measures of three participants had to be excluded. Between observers, AT ranged from 4.2±2.7mm to 5.5±1.9mm (ICC=0.94, SEM=0.6mm) in upright and from 4.9±2.4mm to 5.9±3.0mm (ICC=0.89, SEM=0.9mm) in supine position. LSJA varied from 5.1±2.2° to 7.3±1.5° (ICC=0.54, SEM=1.5°) in upright and from 9.8±2.5° to 10±2.4° (ICC=0.73, SEM=1.1°) in supine position. LA differed from 58.8±14.6° to 61.9±6° (ICC=0.94, SEM=1.19°) in upright and from 51.9±11.7° to 52.6±11.1° (ICC=0.98, SEM=1.59°) in supine position. CONCLUSIONS: Determination of AT and LA showed good to excellent reliability in both, upright and supine position. In contrast, reliability of LSJA had only moderate to good correlation between observers and should therefore be interpreted with caution.
