Partial depletion of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 decreases subcutaneous fat cell hypertrophy and liver cholesterol in high‐fat‐fed female mice

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

Developing a green film from locust bean gum/carboxycellulose nanocrystal for fruit preservation

open access: yesFuture Foods, 2021
In order to prepare a film with good mechanical and barrier property for fruit preservation, the locust bean gum (LBG) coating was reinforced by carboxycellulose nanocrystal (C-CNC).

Ligand‐dependent transcriptional heterogeneity in cell cycle gene expression delays G1/S entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
EGF and HRG induce distinct G1/S progression programs in ErbB2‐amplified BT474 breast cancer cells. Despite activating the potent ErbB2–ErbB3 heterodimer, HRG does not accelerate cell‐cycle entry. Instead, EGF promotes earlier restriction‐point passage via ERK–FOS signaling, whereas HRG activates the AKT–MYC axis, driving transcriptional heterogeneity ...

Eucommia ulmoides Leaf Polyphenols Alleviate Hypertension and Modulate Gut Microbiota and Metabolic Profiles in Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats

open access: yesFoods
Eucommia ulmoides leaves, a traditional edible and medicinal resource, are a rich source of bioactive polyphenols. In this study, male Wistar rats served as the normal control, while spontaneously hypertensive rats were randomized into model, positive ...

Thermal characterisation of bio-based building materials [PDF]

open access: yesWIT Transactions on Ecology and the Environment, Vol 93, 2006
This paper describes how the characterization of indigenous renewable biomass sources that are applicable for making bio-based building (BBB) materials is crucial as it can significantly affect the cost of production and the quality of material. Nowadays, in any specific area, wide ranges of biomass sources are usually available but only a few sources ...

Bio-based Polymers: A Mini Review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Most synthetic polymers are derived from fossil fuel resources, whose scarcity and imbalanced global distribution can affect plastics producers. Bio-based polymers, obtained from renewable biomass resources, have received wide attention in the past two ...

Translophagy—A potential link between autophagy impairment and translational errors

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neurodegenerative diseases are characterised by the accumulation of abnormal proteins and protein aggregates, but their origin often remains unknown. We propose that selective autophagy removes damaged protein‐making machinery, preventing errors during protein synthesis.

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...

A comparative study of the effects of all-instar mulberry leaf and artificial diet on structure and properties of silkworm silk

open access: yesMaterials & Design
Nowadays, traditional mulberry leaf-based sericulture has faced challenges such as low efficiency and environmental dependency. Consequently, artificial-diet based sericulture has been developed and recognized as promising alternative for cocoon ...
