Hydrodynamics of Taylor flow in noncircular capillaries

open access: yes, 2008
In this work, volume of fluid (VOF) technique, one computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method, was used to investigate the upward Taylor flow in vertical square and equi-triangular capillaries. For saving computation time, the simulations were carried out

Structures of mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase reveal carrier‐domain translocation between catalytic sites

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase uses a mobile biotin‐carrying domain to shuttle a carboxyl group between two catalytic sites, enabling carboxylation of 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA during leucine breakdown. Cryo‐electron microscopy captures the carrier at both sites and reveals an inward loop movement that may prevent futile rebinding to the ...

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...

VEGF-A isoforms induce the expression of APLN in endothelial cells during human prenatal lung development

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
IntroductionSingle-cell RNA-sequencing analyses have revealed the existence of two distinct capillary cell populations in the human lung: general capillary cells (CAP1) and alveolar capillary cells (CAP2). Studies in mouse have shown that the splicing of

Spatiotemporal microvascular changes following contusive spinal cord injury

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2023
Microvascular integrity is disrupted following spinal cord injury (SCI) by both primary and secondary insults. Changes to neuronal structures are well documented, but little is known about how the capillaries change and recover following injury ...

The GPIHBP1–LPL complex is responsible for the margination of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins in capillaries

open access: yesCell Metabolism, 2014
Triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRLs) undergo lipolysis by lipoprotein lipase (LPL), an enzyme that is transported to the capillary lumen by an endothelial cell protein, GPIHBP1.

Chiral separation of chloroalkanes with the chromatographic column onboard Martian rovers

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Computer image of the Rosalind Franklin Rover of ESA's ExoMars mission. ExoMars is scheduled to land on planet Mars in Oxia Planum in 2029. This area represents an interesting spot to look for biosignatures. Investigations of ExoMars include measurement on molecular chirality. We show that chiral chloroalkanes, that have been identified on Mars, can be

Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...

Long-Term Running Exercise Delays Age-Related Changes in White Matter in Rats

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2020
Running exercise, one of the strategies to protect brain function, has positive effects on neurons and synapses in the cortex and hippocampus. However, white matter, as an important structure of the brain, is often overlooked, and the effects of long ...
