Pathways of Epithelial Barrier Breakdown and Remodeling in Esophageal Organoids by Commonly Used Surfactants

Allergy, EarlyView.
This study shows that SDS and CAPB directly impair esophageal epithelial barrier integrity in primary EoE‐derived models. SDS induces stronger inflammatory, oxidative stress, and keratinization responses than CAPB. Both surfactants promote epithelial remodeling and partial epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT), with CAPB showing a distinct ...

Application of Multi‐Method Dating for Understanding the Gravettian North of Moravia, Central Europe

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article presents the results of integrating three methods to assess the age of the Upper Palaeolithic site of Pietraszyn 11 (SW Poland), close to the Moravian Gate. Sediment chronology determined using optically stimulated luminescence produced promising, yet ambiguous results (51.0 ± 3.7 to 20.3 ± 0.7 ka).
