Cell-based resorption assays for bone graft substitutes.

open access: yes, 2012
The clinical utilization of resorbable bone substitutes has been growing rapidly during the last decade, creating a rising demand for new resorbable biomaterials. An ideal resorbable bone substitute should not only function as a load-bearing material but

Protocol for measuring mitochondrial respiratory capacity from buccal cell swabs

open access: yesSTAR Protocols
Summary: Mitochondrial respirometry provides a detailed assessment of oxygen consumption within the electron transport system, yet methods detailing respiration from non-invasive samples remain limited.

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

Cell adhesion assays.

open access: yes, 2009
This chapter will outline in detail the two standard assays used in the author's laboratory for quantitating the adhesion of cells to an immobilized substrate. The attachment assay, which employs a colorimetric detection of bound cells, is based on Kueng

Protocol for imaging-based quantification of RNAPII clearance during transcription-coupled DNA repair

open access: yesSTAR Protocols
Summary: Elongating RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) stalls at transcription-blocking lesions in the DNA template strand and is removed by transcription-coupled DNA repair (TCR) factors.

Autophagy and mitophagy in pancreatic β‐cell homeostasis and their involvement in diabetes pathophysiology

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review focuses on the role of autophagy and mitophagy in maintaining pancreatic β‐cell function and homeostasis. We discuss how genetic defects affecting these pathways contribute to the development of type 1, type 2, monogenic, and gestational diabetes. We further explore their potential as therapeutic targets. Created in BioRender.

Golgi enzymes are retrieved from the plasma membrane to the trans‐Golgi network

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Golgi enzymes are traditionally considered resident proteins retained within the Golgi apparatus. Here, we demonstrate that a subset transiently reaches the cell surface and is subsequently retrieved to the trans‐Golgi network via retrograde transport. Using a nanobody‐based toolkit, we uncover a dynamic trafficking cycle of several Golgi enzymes.
