Human iPS cell-engineered three-dimensional cardiac tissues perfused by capillary networks between host and graft

Inflammation and Regeneration, 2018
Stem cell-based cardiac regenerative therapy is expected to be a promising strategy for the treatment of severe heart diseases. Pluripotent stem cells enabled us to reconstruct regenerated myocardium in injured hearts as an engineered tissue aiming for ...

Organizing the interface—Plasma membrane architecture and receptor dynamics in virus‐cell interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Modeling mutation-specific arrhythmogenic phenotypes in isogenic human iPSC-derived cardiac tissues

Scientific Reports
Disease modeling using human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) from patients with genetic disease is a powerful approach for dissecting pathophysiology and drug discovery. Nevertheless, isogenic controls are required to precisely compare phenotypic

iPSC-derived neural organoids in dementia research: Recent advances and future directions

Neuroscience Research
Neural organoids are self-assembled three-dimensionally shaped aggregates generated from pluripotent stem cells for the purpose of generating brain-like structures. The features of the disease, from molecular to functional levels, can be recapitulated by

The interplay between obesity and cancer: a fly view

Disease Models & Mechanisms, 2016
Accumulating epidemiological evidence indicates a strong clinical association between obesity and an increased risk of cancer. The global pandemic of obesity indicates a public health trend towards a substantial increase in cancer incidence and mortality.

Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Viruses infect all living organisms and have been responsible for major epidemics and pandemics. Their ongoing evolutionary battle with host defenses creates a constant need for improved tools to study viral behavior. Advancing methods to probe viral attachment, fusion, and genome release deepen our understanding of how infections begin and support the

The human gut microbiome across the life course

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

Small ubiquitin-like modifier protein SUMO enables plants to control growth independently of the phytohormone gibberellin [PDF]

, 2014
Plants survive adverse conditions by modulating their growth in response to a changing environment. Gibberellins (GAs) play a key role in these adaptive responses by stimulating the degradation of growth-repressing DELLA proteins.

Septin 9 PB domains coordinate centrosome positioning and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Septin 9 polybasic domains couple phosphoinositide‐rich membrane binding to centrosome positioning, Golgi organization, and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity. Their loss disrupts this axis, causing centrosome mispositioning, Golgi fragmentation, reduced microtubule acetylation, and polarity inversion via upregulation of the ...
