Star formation history of the Galactic bulge from deep HST imaging of low reddening windows [PDF]
, 2018 Despite the huge amount of photometric and spectroscopic efforts targetting the Galactic bulge over the past few years, its age distribution remains controversial owing to both the complexity of determining the age of individual stars and the difficult observing conditions.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.B cells sense external mechanical forces and convert them into biochemical signals through mechanotransduction. Understanding how malignant B cells respond to physical stimuli represents a groundbreaking area of research. This review examines the key mechano‐related molecules and pathways in B lymphocytes, highlights the most relevant techniques to ...

The AgeGuess database: an open online resource on chronological and perceived ages of people aged 3-100 [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 In many developed countries, human life expectancy has doubled over the last 180 years from ~40 to ~80 years. Underlying this great advance is a change in how we age, yet our understanding of this change remains limited. Here we present a unique database rich with possibilities to study the human ageing process: the AgeGuess.org database on people's ...

UBV(RI)_C photometry of the open clusters Be 15, Be 80, and NGC 2192 [PDF]
, 2009 The three open clusters Be 15, Be 80, and NGC 2192 have been observed using CCD UBV(RI)_C photometry at the San Pedro M\'artir Observatory, M\'exico within the framework of our open-cluster survey. The fundamental parameters of interstellar reddening, distance, and age have been derived, and also the metallicity for NGC 2192 (solar metallicity has been

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Most MmpLs transport lipids and glycolipids of the complex mycomembrane of mycobacteria. This study shows that MmpL10 from Mycobacterium smegmatis, the transporter of the trehalose polyphosphate precursor, harbors a coiled‐coil‐like extension. Biochemical and electron microscopy studies demonstrate that the coiled‐coil enables MmpL10 to trimerize.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Urine is a rich source of biomarkers for cancer detection. Tumor‐derived material is released into the bloodstream and transported to the urine. Urine can easily be collected from individuals, allowing non‐invasive cancer detection. This review discusses the rationale behind urine‐based cancer detection and its potential for cancer diagnostics ...
