In this work, we provide data related to the calculation of the solvation free energy and enthalpy of the proton in acetonitrile. We have thoroughly explored the potential energy surfaces (PESs) of neutral and protonated acetonitrile clusters from dimer to heptamer in the solvent phase at both MN15/6-31++G(d,p) and MP2/aug-cc-pVDZ levels of theory. We report the structures and relative stability of neutral and protonated acetonitrile clusters in the solvent phase at the MN15/6-31++G(d,p) level of theory. In addition, enthalpies and free energies of neutral and protonated acetonitrile are also reported at the MP2/aug-cc-pVDZ and MP2/CBS levels of theory. Furthermore, Cartesian coordinates of the clusters in the solvent phase as optimized at the MP2/aug-cc-pVDZ level of theory are provided as supplementary file. The data provided in this work will be useful for further investigations that would involve neutral and protonated acetonitrile clusters. The free energies and enthalpies of the investigated clusters in the solvent phase have been used to compute the solvation free energy and enthalpy of the proton in acetonitrile. For more insights on the solvation free energy and enthalpy of the proton in acetonitrile, see the related main research paper [1].Osteoarthritis (OA) is a leading cause of disability in older adults and takes substantial toll at personal, economic and societal levels. There is inadequate comprehension of OA disease progression specifically during the early phases of OA. This knowledge is critical to understanding the heterogeneity in OA progression as well as enable development of targeted therapeutics at the start of the disease rather than end-stage. Histopathology of cartilage is a common method used to assess in situ state of cartilage tissue. Perifosine manufacturer The data presented in this article assesses the histopathological status of human cartilage specimens collected from 90 patients (n = 180). Each specimen was processed for histology and stained with hematoxylin and eosin (HE) and safranin O fast-green (SafO) for acquiring brightfield images to visualize changes in cartilage structure, cells, gycosaminoglycan content and tidemark integrity. The unstained sections were imaged using polarized light microscopy (PLM) to visualize changes in collagen organization and composition within the cartilage specimen. All the specimens were systematically graded by three scorers using established primary OA cartilage grading systems including Histological-Histochemical Grading System (HHGS), advanced Osteoarthritis Research Society International (OARSI) system and Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) scoring system. These data can be used by the OA community as an educational resource to train new reviewers (scorers), it serves as a comprehensive image database for experienced OA community to review the wide spectrum of histopathological features presented by these mild to moderate OA specimens, to define different OA-subtypes, and to generate hypothesis on OA progression mechanisms. Finally, the high quality images can be used to develop machine learning algorithms for classification of OA, automated detection and segmentation of existing or new OA features that can serve as early OA histopathological indicators.Alterations in the brain-gut system have been implicated in various disease states, but little is known about how early-life adversity (ELA) impacts development and adult health as mediated by brain-gut interactions. We hypothesize that ELA disrupts components of the brain-gut system, thereby increasing susceptibility to disordered mood. In a sample of 128 healthy adult participants, a history of ELA and current stress, depression, and anxiety were assessed using validated questionnaires. Fecal metabolites were measured using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry-based untargeted metabolomic profiling. Functional brain connectivity was evaluated by magnetic resonance imaging. Sparse partial least squares-discriminant analysis, controlling for sex, body mass index, age, and diet was used to predict brain-gut alterations as a function of ELA. ELA was correlated with four gut-regulated metabolites within the glutamate pathway (5-oxoproline, malate, urate, and glutamate gamma methyl ester) and alterations in functional brain connectivity within primarily sensorimotor, salience, and central executive networks. Integrated analyses revealed significant associations between these metabolites, functional brain connectivity, and scores for perceived stress, anxiety, and depression. This study reveals a novel association between a history of ELA, alterations in the brain-gut axis, and increased vulnerability to negative mood and stress. Results from the study raise the hypothesis that select gut-regulated metabolites may contribute to the adverse effects of critical period stress on neural development via pathways related to glutamatergic excitotoxicity and oxidative stress.Despite studies providing insight into the neurobiology of chronic stress, depression and anxiety, long noncoding RNA (lncRNA)-mediated mechanisms underlying the common and distinct pathophysiology of these stress-induced disorders remain nonconclusive. In a previous study, we used the chronic mild stress paradigm to separate depression-susceptible, anxiety-susceptible and insusceptible rat subpopulations. In the current study, lncRNA and messenger RNA (mRNA) expression was comparatively profiled in the hippocampus of the three stress groups using microarray technology. Groupwise comparisons identified distinct sets of lncRNAs and mRNAs associated with the three different behavioral phenotypes of the stressed rats. To investigate the regulatory roles of the dysregulated lncRNAs upon mRNA expression, correlations between the differential lncRNAs and mRNAs were first analyzed by combined use of weighted gene coexpression network analysis and ceRNA theory-based methods. Subsequent functional analysis of strongly correlated mRNAs indicated that the dysregulated lncRNAs were involved in various biological pathways and processes to specifically induce rat susceptibility or resiliency to depression or anxiety.
