Identifying transcription factors controlling the basal expression of human MRP4 highlights a substantial role for Sp1

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The MRP4 transporter exports several drugs and signaling molecules. Here, we identified key promoter elements regulating basal MRP4 expression. Using reporter assays, we defined a conserved region with essential Sp1 and contributory Ets sites, which controlled basal MRP4 expression.

Molecular Recognition and Band Alignment in 3-D Covalent Organic Frameworks for Co-Crystalline Organic Photovoltaics

open access: yes, 2020
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have emerged as versatile, functional materials comprised of low-cost molecular building blocks. The permanent porosity, long-range order, and high surface area of 3D-COFs permit co-crystallization with other materials ...

Derivation and characterization of retinal pigment epithelium from urine‐derived iPSCs

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Age‐related macular degeneration causes vision loss via RPE dysfunction and loss. Traditional iPSC therapies rely on invasive biopsies, limiting scalability. Here, we utilize urine‐derived stem cells as an accessible source to generate u‐iPSCs, successfully differentiated into pigmented RPE. This “Urine‐to‐Retina” platform provides a promising path for

Collective transport of polar active particles on the surface of a corrugated tube

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2019
We study collective transport of polar active particles on the surface of a corrugated tube. Particles can be rectified on the surface of the asymmetric tube.

Molecular dynamics simulations of positively selected codons in FcγRI reveal novel biochemical binding properties

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Evolutionary analysis across 32 placental mammals identified positive selection at residues H148 and W149 in the immune receptor FcγR1. Ancestral reconstruction combined with molecular dynamics simulations reveals how these mutations may influence receptor structure and dynamics, providing insight into the evolution of antibody recognition and immune ...

Selective Transparent Contacts Based on a Hafnium‐Titanium Oxide Alloy with Optimized Band Alignment for c‐Si Solar Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces
In this study, the potential of hafnium‐titanium oxide (HfxTi1‐xOy, HTO) thin films is explored and deposited by low‐temperature (75 °C) atomic layer deposition (ALD) as selective contacts for crystalline silicon (c‐Si) solar cells.

Energy level alignment at the methylammonium lead iodide/copper phthalocyanine interface

open access: yesAPL Materials, 2014
The energy level alignment at the CH3NH3PbI3/copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) interface is investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS).

Acute caffeine treatment protects the developing retina from ischemia‐induced cell death

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Caffeine reduces cell death in the developing retina under ischemia (OGD). This effect does not involve BDNF upregulation or antioxidant pathways (NRF2/VEGF). Neuroprotection occurs mainly through adenosine A2A receptor antagonism, decreasing glutamate release and excitotoxicity, highlighting caffeine's potential as an acute neuroprotective agent in ...

Pharmacological inhibition of the PERK pathway modulates hepatocellular carcinoma growth and immune signaling

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Pharmacological inhibition of PERK in a DEN‐induced mouse model of liver cancer does not reduce tumor burden but alters cellular stress signaling. Despite blocking PERK activity, downstream stress responses, including CHOP expression, remain active, suggesting compensatory mechanisms within the unfolded protein response that may influence tumor ...
