Experimental Study on Accurate Determination of Shale Porosity by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance

Chinese Journal of Magnetic Resonance
In recent years, the exploration and development of shale oil and gas have expanded significantly, accompanied by numerous challenges. Porosity is a fundamental parameter for shale reservoir evaluation and reserve estimation, providing essential data for

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Synthesis of Cis-Cisoid or Cis-Transoid Poly(Phenyl-Acetylene)s Having One or Two Carbamate Groups as Oxygen Permeation Membrane Materials

Membranes, 2020
Three new phenylacetylene monomers having one or two carbamate groups were synthesized and polymerized by using (Rh(norbornadiene)Cl)2 as an initiator. The resulting polymers had very high average molecular weights (Mw) of 1.4–4.8 × 106, with different ...

Cell geometry and membrane protein crowding constrain Escherichia coli growth rate, overflow metabolism, respiration, and maintenance energy

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The physical dimensions and shape of bacterial cells define the surface area available to acquire nutrients and the volume available for synthesizing proteins and DNA. Here, we use computational systems biology to decode the importance of cell geometry as a major determinant of prokaryotic phenotype, including growth rate and metabolic efficiency. This

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Genetic reprogramming with stem cells regenerates glomerular epithelial podocytes in Alport syndrome

Life Science Alliance
Podocytes are the rate-limiting glomerular cells for type IV collagen production, and horizontal gene transfer or cell fusion with stem cells regenerates the renal parenchyma in Alport syndrome. Glomerular filtration relies on the type IV collagen (ColIV)

Matrix metalloproteinase 2 and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases 2 in the diagnosis of colorectal adenoma and cancer patients.

Folia Histochemica et Cytobiologica, 2011
The aim of the study was to assess the importance of the measurement of matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2) and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases 2 (TIMP-2) in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) in relation to clinicopathological features ...

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Stem cell differentiation is complex and difficult to control experimentally. This review introduces suitable computational modelling approaches that can support stem cell research, from mechanistic ODE and abstract models to multiscale and deep learning methods.
