Hokkaido University researchers revealed that fatal gut failure in a multiplesclerosis (MS) mouse model, EAE, under chronic stress is caused by a newlydiscovered nerve pathway. The findings could provide a new therapeutic strategyfor the intractable disease, particularly progressive MS, which has no therapeuticstrategy at present.
MS affects an estimated 2.5 millionpeople worldwide and causes motordysfunction, impaired vision andgastrointestinal failures. It is anautoimmune condition of the centralnervous system (CNS) mediated byimmune cells called autoreactiveCD4+ T cells. In EAE mouse models,these pathogenic CD4+ T cells cancause a MSlike disease whentransfused intravenously to healthymice.
In previous studies using EAE mousemodels, Professor Masaaki Murakamiof Hokkaido University and hiscolleagues revealed autoreactiveCD4+ T cells cross the bloodbrainbarrier at specific sites and causeinflammation in the CNS includingthe brain and spinal cord.
The emergence of a "gateway" for autoreactiveCD4+ T cells to cross the barrier was caused byregional neural activation at those sites, which istriggered by specific sensorysympatheticinteractions. They termed these phenomena as
gateway reflexes and have published on at least three, the gravity, electric, andpaingateway reflexes.
In the present study, the team and their collaborators in Japan and Germanyinvestigated the possible relations between chronic stress, microinflammation inthe brain, and stressrelated organ failures.
They put healthy mice under stress by disturbing their sleep or by rearing them onwet bedding. The transfer of pathogenic CD4+ T cells under the stress causedsevere symptoms such as gastrointestinal failures and even sudden death. Celltransfer or stress alone did not cause these symptoms. Subsequent investigationsrevealed a complex nerverelated mechanism behind this process.
The injected pathogenic CD4+ T cellsaccumulated around blood vessels in twospecific sites at the center of the brains of thestressed mice. Microinflammation developedaround specific blood vessels, and theinflamed sites then released a small molecule called ATP that switched on a nervepathway that is normally turned off. This switch led to gut dysfunctions, bleeding

and failure. Also, the bleeding led to increased levels of potassium in the blood,
which was one of factors leading to heart failure.
The team was able to prevent gut failure by suppressing inflammation in the brain
or blocking nerve pathways from the brain to the gut. The results suggest that tiny
areas of inflammation around some specific vessels in the brain, which are known
to happen in various brain diseases including multiple sclerosis, are a risk factor for
organ dysfunctions including severe gut and heart failure.
"These results demonstrate a direct link between brain microinflammation and
fatal gastrointestinal diseases via the establishment of a new neural pathway under
stress," says Masaaki Murakami. "Microinflammation in the brain is also seen in
Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. So it's of particular interest to
investigate possible connections between brain microinflammations and organ
dysfunctions, including those within the brain itself, in those patients."
The study was published in the journal eLife.

robot collaboration
At the productronica trade fair in Munich thisNovember, the Fraunhofer Institute for LaserTechnology ILT will be presenting LaserBased TapeAutomated Bonding, LaserTAB for short. The expertsfrom Aachen will be demonstrating how new batterycells and power electronics can be microweldedmore efficiently and precisely than ever beforethanks to new optics and robot support.
Fraunhofer ILT from Aachen relies on a clever
combination of robotics and a laser scanner with new
optics as well as process monitoring, which it has

Im Focus: The pyrenoid is a carbonfixing liquid droplet
Plants and algae use the enzyme Rubisco to fixcarbon dioxide, removing it from the atmosphere andconverting it into biomass. Algae have figured out away to increase the efficiency of carbon fixation.They gather most of their Rubisco into a ballshapedmicrocompartment called the pyrenoid, which theyflood with a high local concentration of carbondioxide. A team of scientists at Princeton University,the Carnegie Institution for Science, StanfordUniversity and the Max Plank Institute ofBiochemistry have unravelled the mysteries of howthe pyrenoid is assembled. These insights can help toengineer crops that remove more carbon dioxide
from the atmosphere while producing more food.

Im Focus: Highly precise wiring in the Cerebral Cortex
Our brains house extremely complex neuronalcircuits, whose detailed structures are still largelyunknown. This is especially true for the socalledcerebral cortex of mammals, where among otherthings vision, thoughts or spatial orientation arebeing computed. Here the rules by which nerve cellsare connected to each other are only partlyunderstood. A team of scientists around MoritzHelmstaedter at the Frankfiurt Max Planck Institutefor Brain Research and Helene Schmidt (HumboldtUniversity in Berlin) have now discovered asurprisingly precise nerve cell connectivity pattern inthe part of the cerebral cortex that is responsible fororienting the individual animal or human in space.
The researchers report online in Nature (Schmidt et al., 2017. Axonal synapsesorting in medial entorhinal cortex, DOI: 10.1038/nature24005) that synapses in...

Im Focus: Ultrafast snapshots of relaxing electrons in solids
Using ultrafast flashes of laser and xray radiation,scientists at the Max Planck Institute of QuantumOptics (Garching, Germany) took snapshots of thebriefest electron motion inside a solid material todate. The electron motion lasted only 750 billionthsof the billionth of a second before it fainted, setting anew record of human capability to capture ultrafastprocesses inside solids!
When xrays shine onto solid materials or largemolecules, an electron is pushed away from itsoriginal place near the nucleus of the atom, leaving ahole...
