pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...

No. 21: Cross-Border Raiding and Community Conflict in the Lesotho-South African Border Zone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Movement backwards and forwards across borders for work is often considered to be the primary form of unauthorized movement in Southern Africa. In southern Lesotho, a new and particularly dangerous form of two-way cross-border movement has become ...

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

The impact of after-hours messaging on job stress and burnout among Taiwan’s border police: the roles of social support and coping strategies

open access: yesHumanities & Social Sciences Communications
With the advancement of technology, communication software is increasingly facilitating interaction between organizations and employees. However, its unrestricted accessibility often blurs the line between work and personal life.

Borders Manifest: Racializing the Nicaraguan Refugee in Costa Rica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
I look to border responses of North American countries as refugees and migrants move across them to argue that border responses racialize the foreign other in receiving countries.

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Analytical Solutions for the Nonlinear Stochastic Fractional KdV Equation: An application of the Generalized Riccati Equation Mapping Method

open access: yesJournal of Applied Science and Engineering
The article examines the fractional stochastic Korteweg-de Vries (FSKdV) equation, with a focus on space-time white noise and conformable fractional derivatives (CFD).

Transcriptional network analysis of PTEN‐protein‐deficient prostate tumors reveals robust stromal reprogramming and signs of senescent paracrine communication

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Combining PTEN protein assessment and transcriptomic profiling of prostate tumors, we uncovered a network enriched in senescence and extracellular matrix (ECM) programs associated with PTEN loss and conserved in a mouse model. We show that PTEN‐deficient cells trigger paracrine remodeling of the surrounding stroma and this information could help ...

Incidence of Gallstones in Patients with Obesity After Bariatric Surgery in Northern Saudi Arabia: A Cross-Sectional Study

open access: yesClinics and Practice
Background/Objectives: Gallstone formation (cholelithiasis) is a common and important consequence following bariatric surgery, though regional data from the Northern Border Region are limited.
