Calcium Phosphate Cement Leakage During Balloon Kyphoplasty Causing Incomplete Paraplegia: Case Report and Review of the Literature

open access: yesJournal of Orthopedic and Spine Trauma, 2016
Introduction: Bone cement leakage is the most common, however, it can have potentially disastrous complications during vertebroplasty and balloon kyphoplasty (BK).

Three-Dimensional Model of Sub-Plasmalemmal Ca2+ Microdomains Evoked by T Cell Receptor/CD3 Complex Stimulation

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
Ca2+ signalling plays an essential role in T cell activation, which is a key step to start an adaptive immune response. During the transition from a quiescent to a fully activated state, Ca2+ microdomains of reduced spatial and temporal extents develop ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

CFTR-mediated anion secretion in parathyroid hormone-treated Caco-2 cells is associated with PKA and PI3K phosphorylation but not intracellular pH changes or Na+/K+-ATPase abundance

open access: yesBiochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2021
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) has previously been shown to enhance the transepithelial secretion of Cl− and HCO3− across the intestinal epithelia including Caco-2 monolayer, but the underlying cellular mechanisms are not completely understood.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Detecting stoichiometry of macromolecular complexes in live cells using FRET

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Measuring thein vivo stoichiometry of protein-protein interactions is challenging. Here the authors take a FRET-based approach, quantifying stoichiometry based on ratiometric comparison of donor and acceptor fluorescence, and apply their method to report

An upstream open reading frame regulates expression of the mitochondrial protein Slm35 and mitophagy flux

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

The Activity of Calcium in Calcium-Calcium Halide Fluxes.

open access: yesISIJ International, 1996
The activities of calcium in the CaOsatd.-Ca-CaX2 fluxes (X: Cl, Br, I) were measured as a function of the calcium composition at 1 473 K by equilibrating these fluxes with a solid zirconium plate. The activities decreased in the order CaCl2, Cal2 and CaBr2 at the same calcium fraction of these fluxes.

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.
