SND3 is the membrane insertase within a distinct SEC61 translocon complex

Nature Communications
During the biogenesis of most eukaryotic integral membrane proteins (IMPs), transmembrane domains are inserted into the endoplasmic reticulum membrane by a dedicated insertase or the SEC61 translocon.

A Human Neural Tube Model Using 4D Self‐Folding Smart Scaffolds

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) exhibit features comparable to the inner cell mass of the human embryo. iPSCs are applied to a novel self‐folding 4D‐Neural Tube (4D‐NT) structure that mimics the neurulation process. This 4D‐NT model recapitulates early events of human neural development and represents a platform to explore neurodevelopmental ...

FUS affects circular RNA expression in murine embryonic stem cell-derived motor neurons [PDF]

, 2017
The RNA-binding protein FUS participates in several RNA biosynthetic processes and has been linked to the pathogenesis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia.

Synergistic Combination of Tamoxifen–Tetraphenylethylene Co‐Assembled Micelles and Orlistat‐Induced Lipid Droplet Inhibition to Overcome Tamoxifen Resistance

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Molecule 2, which contains a shorter oligoether chain, binds to tamoxifen via structural similarity forming micelles with a positive surface charge, thereby enhancing cellular uptake. These fluorescent micelles induce lipid droplet (LD) accumulation, exhibit strong fluorescence, and effectively overcome tamoxifen resistance by synergizing with orlistat‐

The Val66Met variant of brain-derived neurotrophic factor is linked to reduced telomere length in a military population: a pilot study

Scientific Reports
In military populations, gene-environment interactions can influence performance and health outcomes. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a central nervous system protein that is important for neuronal function and synaptic plasticity.

Metallofullerenol Sc3N@C80(OH)18: A New Generation Radioprotector Protecting Human Erythrocytes Against Multiple Biochemical Damage Modes Upon Gamma Irradiation, Identifying It as a Scavenger of Short‐ and Long‐Lived Radicals

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Metallofullerenol Sc3N@C80(OH)18 demonstrates strong radioprotective properties as a scavenger of both short‐ and long‐lived radicals. The study reveals protection of human erythrocytes from γ‐radiation–induced biochemical damage via post‐irradiation removal of primary and secondary reactive oxidants, supported by pulse radiolysis kinetics.

tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) in cardiovascular diseases: biogenesis, functions, and therapeutic targets

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNAs that are generated by cleavage of precursors or mature tRNAs under stress conditions such as hypoxia, oxidative stress and nutrient deficiency.

Shedding Light on the Cellular Uptake Mechanisms of Bioactive Glass Nanoparticles as Controlled Intracellular Delivery Platforms: A Review of the Recent Literature

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the main uptake pathways of bioactive glass nanoparticles (BGNs) and their intracellular localization, highlighting that BGNs are mainly internalized and entrapped within endosomes/lysosomes. Strategies for controlled intracellular ion release, with implications for targeted modulation of cell behavior, are discussed. The need to

Biological membranes in EV biogenesis, stability, uptake, and cargo transfer: an ISEV position paper arising from the ISEV membranes and EVs workshop

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, 2019
Paracrine and endocrine roles have increasingly been ascribed to extracellular vesicles (EVs) generated by multicellular organisms. Central to the biogenesis, content, and function of EVs are their delimiting lipid bilayer membranes. To evaluate research
