Hematopoietic (stem) cells—The elixir of life?

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The aging of HSCs (hematopoietic stem cells) and the blood system leads to the decline of other organs. Rejuvenating aged HSCs improves the function of the blood system, slowing the aging of the heart, kidney, brain, and liver, and the occurrence of age‐related diseases.

Interplay between circadian and other transcription factors—Implications for cycling transcriptome reprogramming

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This perspective highlights emerging insights into how the circadian transcription factor CLOCK:BMAL1 regulates chromatin architecture, cooperates with other transcription factors, and coordinates enhancer dynamics. We propose an updated framework for how circadian transcription factors operate within dynamic and multifactorial chromatin landscapes ...

Fast simulation of the influence of a refractive free-form microstructure on a wave field based on scalar diffraction theory

Journal of the European Optical Society-Rapid Publications
We present a novel fast simulation approach to simulate the influence of refractive freeform microstructures on a wave field. The FRISP (Finite Refractive Index Selective Propagation) method combines the Rayleigh-Sommerfeld diffraction integral with a ...

Overview of Skin Whitening Agents: Drugs and Cosmetic Products

Cosmetics, 2016
Depigmentation and skin lightening products, which have been in use for ages in Asian countries where skin whiteness is a major esthetic criterion, are now also highly valued by Western populations, who expose themselves excessively to the sun and ...

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...

Laser-tracker-based reference measurement for geometric calibration of phase-measuring deflectometry with active display registration [PDF]

Journal of Sensors and Sensor Systems
Phase-measuring deflectometry (PMD) with active display registration (ADR) is a ray-optics-based technique for the shape measurement of specular surfaces.

The role of histone modifications in transcription regulation upon DNA damage

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review discusses the critical role of histone modifications in regulating gene expression during the DNA damage response (DDR). By modulating chromatin structure and recruiting repair factors, these post‐translational modifications fine‐tune transcriptional programmes to maintain genomic stability.

Effects of Short-Term Laser Beam Heating on the Absorptivity of Steel Sheets

Journal of Manufacturing and Materials Processing, 2019
The efficiency of laser beam processes basically depends on the efficiency of the laser beam source and the efficiency of the irradiated material’s energy absorption. This absorptivity can be influenced by the surface condition.

Function‐driven design of a surrogate interleukin‐2 receptor ligand

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interleukin (IL)‐2 signaling can be achieved and precisely fine‐tuned through the affinity, distance, and orientation of the heterodimeric receptors with their ligands. We designed a biased IL‐2 surrogate ligand that selectively promotes effector T and natural killer cell activation and differentiation. Interleukin (IL) receptors play a pivotal role in
