Mathematics Students' Coping Behaviour, Happiness, and Self-efficacy in the New Normal: Correlation and K-means Cluster Analysis

Leomarich F. Casinillo

Summary: Students in distance education are expected to have low levels of happiness in learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, this study found that students still demonstrated moderate levels of coping behaviour, happiness, and self-efficacy in learning mathematics. The results highlighted the importance of combining coping behaviour, happiness, and efficacy to achieve positive learning outcomes during the health crisis. Mathematics teachers should encourage student engagement in the classroom to enhance their overall well-being.

Forskolin-induced organoid swelling is associated with long-term cystic fibrosis disease progression

Danya Muilwijk et al.

Summary: This study examines the association of forskolin-induced swelling (FIS) of patient-derived organoids with long-term cystic fibrosis (CF) disease progression. The results show that FIS is strongly associated with changes in lung function and the development of CF-related complications, such as pancreatic insufficiency, liver disease, and diabetes.

Functional Restoration of CFTR Nonsense Mutations in Intestinal Organoids

E. de Poel et al.

Summary: This study assessed the effect of drugs targeting translational readthrough (RT), nonsense mRNA mediated decay (NMD), and CFTR protein modulation on CFTR function in intestinal organoids of people with cystic fibrosis. The results showed that a quintuple combination of drugs can effectively rescue PTC CFTR protein function, reaching clinical relevance.

A role for AKT1 in nonsense-mediated mRNA decay

Martine Palma et al.

Summary: Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is a highly regulated quality control mechanism that degrades mRNAs containing premature termination codons. AKT1 kinase plays a crucial role in NMD by phosphorylating UPF1, which may have implications in cancer processes and therapy due to its overactivation in cancer cells.

Targeting G542X CFTR nonsense alleles with ELX-02 restores CFTR function in human-derived intestinal organoids

Daniel K. Crawford et al.

Summary: ELX-02 promotes read-through of mRNA transcripts with nonsense mutations in CF patient-derived organoids, leading to increased CFTR activity and expression. These findings support the potential of ELX-02 as a read-through agent for CF caused by the G542X allele.

A new platform for high-throughput therapy testing on iPSC-derived lung progenitor cells from cystic fibrosis patients

Jia Xin Jiang et al.

Summary: This study introduced a new testing platform that uses patient-specific iPSCs differentiated to lung progenitor cells for high-throughput assay of CFTR channel activity. The proof-of-concept studies supported the potential use of this platform in developing therapies for rare CFTR mutations.

Discovery of CFTR modulators for the treatment of cystic fibrosis

Miqueias Lopes-Pacheco et al.

Summary: Cystic fibrosis is a life-threatening inherited disease caused by mutations in the CFTR gene, with current therapies targeting only symptoms. Novel CFTR modulator drugs are expected to significantly modify the disease course for the majority of patients, with a focus on accelerating drug development and personalized treatment approaches.
