Autophagy in cancer and protein conformational disorders
Autophagy plays a crucial role in numerous biological processes, including protein and organelle quality control, development, immunity, and metabolism. Hence, dysregulation or mutations in autophagy‐related genes have been implicated in a wide range of human diseases.

Angiogenesis: A Model of Cell Differentiation [PDF]
Angiogenesis is the formation of blood vessels, and is of great importance in the growth of tumours. Attempts have been made to desgin experiments in petri-dishes that mimic the 'Conditions of tumour growth. The first of the experiments is the 'matrigel'

Rotational behavior of red blood cells in suspension---a mesoscale simulation study
The nature of blood as a suspension of red blood cells makes computational hemodynamics a demanding task. Our coarse-grained blood model, which builds on a lattice Boltzmann method for soft particle suspensions, enables the study of the collective ...

Functional characterization of reappearing B cells after anti-CD20 treatment of CNS autoimmune disease. [PDF]
The anti-CD20 antibody ocrelizumab, approved for treatment of multiple sclerosis, leads to rapid elimination of B cells from the blood. The extent of B cell depletion and kinetics of their recovery in different immune compartments is largely unknown ...

The adaptability of red blood cells [PDF]
The most important function of red blood cells (RBCs) is the carrying of oxygen, but they are also involved in inflammatory processes and during coagulation. RBCs are extremely deformable and elastic, as they are exposed to shear forces as they travel through the vascular system.

The protonated form of butyrate, as well as other short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs), is membrane permeable. In acidic extracellular environments, this can lead to intracellular accumulation of SCFAs and cytosolic acidification. This phenomenon will be particularly relevant in acidic environments such as the large intestine or tumor microenvironments ...

Imaging human blood cells in vivo with oblique back-illumination capillaroscopy [PDF]
We present a non-invasive, label-free method of imaging blood cells flowing through human capillaries in vivo using oblique back-illumination capillaroscopy (OBC). Green light illumination allows simultaneous phase and absorption contrast, enhancing the ability to distinguish red and white blood cells.
