Potential health benefits of cold‐water immersion: the central role of PGC‐1α
Abstract figure legend Cold‐water immersion (CWI) elicits autonomic, somato‐motoric (shivering thermogenesis), endocrine and metabolic, sensory transduction, and local biophysical effects that may converge on the transcriptional co‐activator PGC‐1α (centre).

ABSTRACT Alpha‐1‐antitrypsin (A1AT) is a multifunctional, clinically important, high‐value therapeutic glycoprotein that can be used for the treatment of many diseases, such as A1AT deficiency, diabetes, graft‐versus‐host disease, cystic fibrosis, and various viral infections. Currently, the only U.S. food and drug administration‐approved treatment for

Portuguese consensus document for the management of alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency
Alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) is a genetic autosomal codominant disorder caused by mutations in SERPINA1 gene. It is one of the most prevalent genetic disorders, although it remains underdiagnosed. Whereas at international level there are several

EvoMut: A computational framework for engineering oxidative stability in proteins
Abstract Amino acid oxidation is a major cause of protein instability and loss of function in therapeutic and industrial settings. Although methionine, cysteine, tryptophan, tyrosine, histidine, lysine, and arginine residues are widely recognized as oxidation‐prone, only a subset of such residues is dominant functional hotspots, and not all are ...

Why do specific proteins accumulate on “non‐fouling” surfaces? Quantitative proteomics and structural analysis reveal surface‐exposed arginine as the key molecular determinant. ABSTRACT The protein corona determines the biocompatibility of medical devices, yet predicting its composition on anti‐fouling surfaces remains challenging.
