A Frailty‐Based Plasma Proteomic Signature Capturing Overall Health and Well‐Being in Older Adults
Aging Cell, Volume 24, Issue 9, September 2025.We derived a 25‐protein blood‐based frailty signature (proteomic frailty index, pFI) predictive of the cumulative frailty index. The pFI was validated across independent cohorts and was significantly associated with physical, clinical, and cognitive function, as well as incident mortality and dementia, highlighting its potential as a biomarker of ...

Cancer Science, Volume 116, Issue 9, Page 2347-2361, September 2025.Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are the major component of the tumor stroma. This review will highlight the CAF subtypes within the tumor microenvironment and their role in tumor progression. CAF subtype induction by extracellular vesicles (EVs) and their significance, which we reported previously, are also discussed.

Purification of the Third Factor of Anthrax Toxin [PDF]
Journal of General Microbiology, 1962 SUMMARY: Factor III of anthrax toxin, which increases the lethality of mixtures of factors I and II for mice and decreases their capacity to produce oedema in the skin of rabbits, has been purified. The final preparation showed a single peak in the ultracentrifuge and a single band on paper electro-phoresis.
