Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve

Rethinking plastic waste: innovations in enzymatic breakdown of oil‐based polyesters and bioplastics
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Plastic pollution remains a critical environmental challenge, and current mechanical and chemical recycling methods are insufficient to achieve a fully circular economy. This review highlights recent breakthroughs in the enzymatic depolymerization of both oil‐derived polyesters and bioplastics, including high‐throughput protein engineering, de novo ...

Raman‐based label‐free microscopic analysis of the pancreas in living zebrafish larvae
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Forward stimulated Raman scattering (F‐SRS) and epi coherent anti‐Stokes Raman scattering (E‐CARS) allow label‐free discrimination of distinct subcellular structures in the pancreas of living zebrafish larvae. Given the straightforward applicability, we anticipate broad implementation of Raman microscopy in other organs and across various biomedical ...

APHRON-BASED DRILLING FLUIDS: SOLUTION FOR LOW PRESSURE RESERVOIRS
Rudarsko-geološko-naftni Zbornik, 2009 Drilling wells throughout depleted or low pressure reservoirs requires low density drilling fluids, often with density less than water. Methods to reduce the density of drilling fluids have included mixing-in air or nitrogen. However, problems with these
