Effect of the microbiome on pathogen susceptibility across four Drosophilidae species

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Four Drosophilidae species were used to investigate how variation in the host microbiome influences susceptibility to infection. Microbial composition and abundance differed among species and treatments. The effects of microbiome manipulation on host survival were both species‐ and pathogen‐specific.

Extreme-value analysis of intracellular cargo transport by motor proteins

Communications Physics
The mechanisms underlying the chemo-mechanical coupling of motor proteins is usually described by a set of force-velocity relations that reflect the different mechanisms responsible for the walking behavior of such proteins on microtubules.

Positive and negative tissue-specific signaling by a nematode epidermal growth factor receptor [PDF]

, 1997
The major determinants of receptor tissue tyrosine kinase (RTK) signaling specificity have been proposed to be Src homology 2 (SH2) binding sites, phosphotyrosine-containing oligopeptides in the cytoplasmic domain of the receptor.

Addiction‐related problems in Japan: A regional perspective

Addiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Japan's addiction landscape appears paradoxical. The lifetime use of illicit drugs is among the lowest in Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development countries, but harm from alcohol, tobacco, and gambling ranks among the world's highest.

The DNA/RNA autophagy protein SIDT2 as a novel neuropathological hallmark in Huntington disease

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
SIDT2‐immunoreactive inclusions are observed in the striatum, cerebral cortex, and hypothalamus in HD cases with different Vonsattel grades, and the frequency of SIDT2‐immunoreactive inclusions is associated with longer CAG repeats in the huntingtin gene.

Anti‐inflammatory effects of physical stimuli: The central role of networks in shaping the future of pharmacological research

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Addressing complexity in the study of life sciences through Systems Biology and Systems Medicine has been transformative, making Systems Pharmacology the next logical step. In this review, we focus on physical stimuli, whose potential in pharmacology has been neglected, despite demonstrated therapeutic properties.

The amino terminal domain of the human α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor subunit leads to the functional expression of human/insect receptors

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Human α7 receptors have been characterised in terms of pharmacological properties. Insertion of the N‐terminal domain of the human α7 subunit leads to honeybee and cockroach chimeric receptors activated by ACh and inhibited by α‐Bgt. Insertion of the human cys‐loop leads to cockroach chimeric receptors modulated by PNU.

LIN-24 as a Molecular Switch: Dual Cytotoxic and Cytoprotective Roles of an Aerolysin-Like Protein in C. elegans. [PDF]

J Appl Toxicol
ABSTRACT LIN‐24, an aerolysin‐like pore‐forming protein in Caenorhabditis elegans, exemplifies how ancient cytolytic mechanisms have evolved into regulated cellular processes. Initially identified for inducing nonapoptotic, engulfment‐dependent cell death in vulval precursor cells, LIN‐24 has emerged as a multifunctional regulator of metabolism, stress

BOLL‐Containing Aggregates Mediate the Translational Regulation During Human Oogenesis

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
This work elucidates that BOLL‐containing aggregate‐mediated translational control is essential for human oogenesis. These aggregates recruit PABPC1 and FXR1 to activate the translation of U‐rich mRNAs encoding cell cycle proteins, thereby ensuring successful meiotic progression.
