Face/Off: The Interchangeable Side of Candida Albicans

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020
Due to limited mobility, fungi, like most unicellular organisms, have evolved mechanisms to adapt to sudden chemical and/or physical variation in their environment.

Wall modeling via function enrichment: extension to detached-eddy simulation [PDF]

, 2017
We extend the approach of wall modeling via function enrichment to detached-eddy simulation. The wall model aims at using coarse cells in the near-wall region by modeling the velocity profile in the viscous sublayer and log-layer. However, unlike other wall models, the full Navier-Stokes equations are still discretely fulfilled, including the pressure ...

Assessment of concurrent neoplasms and a paraneoplastic association in MOGAD

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cases of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody‐associated disease (MOGAD) co‐occurring with neoplasms have been reported. In this international, retrospective cohort study in South Korea and the USA, 16 of 445 (3.6%) patients with MOGAD had concurrent neoplasm within 2 years of MOGAD onset, resulting in a standardized incidence ...

Unraveling cell wall polysaccharides during blueberry ripening: insights into the roles of rhamnogalacturonan-I and arabinogalactan proteins in fruit firmness

Frontiers in Plant Science
Blueberries (Vaccinium corymbosum) undergo significant texture changes during development and ripening, notably a consistent decrease in firmness, which affects fruit quality, consumer preference, transportability, and shelf life. This study examined the

Genetic dissection of cell wall defects and the strigolactone pathway in Arabidopsis

Plant Direct, 2019
Defects in the biosynthesis and/or deposition of secondary plant cell wall polymers result in the collapse of xylem vessels causing a dwarfed plant stature and an altered plant architecture termed irregular xylem (irx) syndrome.

Cell Wall Remodeling Enzymes Modulate Fungal Cell Wall Elasticity and Osmotic Stress Resistance

mBio, 2015
The fungal cell wall confers cell morphology and protection against environmental insults. For fungal pathogens, the cell wall is a key immunological modulator and an ideal therapeutic target.

Skin calcium deposits in primary familial brain calcification: A novel potential biomarker

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Primary Familial Brain Calcification (PFBC) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder characterized by small vessel calcifications in the basal ganglia. PFBC is caused by pathogenic variants in different genes and its physiopathology is still largely unknown. Skin vascular calcifications have been detected in single PFBC cases, suggesting

Direct measurement of cell wall stress-stiffening and turgor pressure in live bacterial cells [PDF]

, 2011
We study intact and bulging Escherichia coli cells using atomic force microscopy to separate the contributions of the cell wall and turgor pressure to the overall cell stiffness. We find strong evidence of power-law stress-stiffening in the E. coli cell wall, with an exponent of 1.22 \pm 0.12, such that the wall is significantly stiffer in intact cells

Clinical impact and safety of brain biopsy in unexplained central nervous system disorders: a real‐world cohort study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective A substantial part of central nervous system (CNS) disorders remains unexplained, despite various new and minimally invasive diagnostic techniques. Within this rapidly developing diagnostic field, the precise role of brain biopsy is unknown.

Plant cell wall dynamics and wall-related susceptibility in plant-pathogen interactions

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014
The cell wall is a dynamic structure that often determines the outcome of the interactions between plants and pathogens. It is a barrier that pathogens need to breach to colonize the plant tissue.
