Co-Translational Insertion of Aquaporins into Liposome for Functional Analysis via an E. coli Based Cell-Free Protein Synthesis System

Cells, 2019
Aquaporins are important and well-studied water channel membrane proteins. However, being membrane proteins, sample preparation for functional analysis is tedious and time-consuming.

Biomimetic Scaffold‐Based 3D Models for Decoding Cancer Biology and Advancing Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A timeline of the research history of 3D biomimetic scaffold materials and platforms. With advances in biomimetic materials and 3D scaffold technologies, their functional scope has expanded from mimicking basic physical and biochemical properties to increasingly replicating complex pathophysiological processes.

Astrocytes Coordinate Neurovascular Coupling During Prolonged Sensory Demand via AQP4/TRPA1/BEST1/D‐Serine Signaling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Neuronal activation leads to astrocytic transient volume changes, activating transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) channels, leading to Ca2+ influx. Activation of TRPA1 causes the release of D‐serine through BEST1. Finally, the augmented extracellular levels of D‐serine boost neuronal activity by binding GluN1‐containing NMDARs, leading to CBV

Multimodal Characterization of Glymphatic‐Related Magnetic Resonance Imaging Markers in Huntington's Disease: A Multi‐Cohort Retrospective Study

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective To characterize magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)‐based glymphatic surrogates in Huntington's disease (HD) using MRI measures of perivascular diffusivity and structural perivascular alterations across multiple large cohorts. Methods We analyzed 2,731 MRI sessions from 880 participants across 3 large retrospective HD cohorts.

Real‐time monitoring of root dielectric properties for assessing crop plant damage caused by foliar application of glyphosate

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise There is a knowledge gap regarding how foliar injury and restricted water uptake can be detected by measuring root dielectric response. This pot study nondestructively evaluated the efficiency of real‐time dielectric measurement to monitor the effects of glyphosate spraying.

Plant aquaporins: Their roles beyond water transport

Crop Journal
Compared to other organisms, plants have evolved a greater number of aquaporins with diverse substrates and functions to adapt to ever-changing environmental and internal stimuli for growth and development.

Morphophysiological dynamics of the proximal post‐testicular ducts in Crotalus durissus Linnaeus, 1758 (Squamata: Viperidae)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The organization and function of reptilian excurrent ducts remain poorly characterized, particularly in Neotropical snakes. We provide the first integrative morphological, histochemical, immunohistochemical, and ultrastructural analysis of the proximal post‐testicular ducts of Crotalus durissus across reproductive stages.

Clock Genes Regulate Ca2+ Signaling and Mitochondrial Bioenergetics to Inhibit Sjögren Disease

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Although Ca2+ signaling and metabolism have been identified as key determinants for the development of Sjögren disease (SjD), the intricate connection between them and salivary gland physiology remains poorly understood. Methods Fluorescence‐based Ca2+ imaging, RNA sequencing, and mitochondrial activity were used to investigate the effects of

In silico analysis of molecular mimicry between human aquaporin 3, Aspergillus fumigatus aquaporin and aquaporins from allergic sources [version 2; peer review: 2 approved]

F1000Research
Background Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that has a significant impact on quality of life. The immune response and allergy symptoms in AD are triggered by the recognition of specific allergens by IgE antibodies.
