ABSTRACT In a scenario with increasing cases of obesity and diabetes worldwide, branched‐chain amino acids (BCAA) metabolism has become an important factor in the understanding of these pathologies. More recently, its chronic high plasma levels have been postulated, alongside glucose, inflammatory factors, and other molecules, as an important ...

Circulating Cell‐Free DNA Concentration as a Biomarker in Head and Neck Cancer
ABSTRACT Objective Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), particularly human papillomavirus (HPV) ‐negative HNSCC, poses a significant clinical challenge due to late diagnoses and poor survival. This study evaluates the potential of circulating cell‐free DNA (ccfDNA) as a minimally invasive biomarker for diagnosis, prognosis and disease ...

Abstract Airflow design in compact cultivation systems is often overlooked despite its importance for microclimate and crop performance. This study aimed to determine whether growth‐stage‐aware ventilation strategies are necessary for effective airflow in small chambers. Using graphics processing unit accelerated, computer‐based airflow simulations, we

ABSTRACT The vital cofactors NADH and NADPH are prone to hydration, forming hydroxylated redox‐inactive derivatives (NADHX and NADPHX) in cells. These damaged metabolites are repaired by two highly conserved enzymes, an NAD(P)HX dehydratase (NAXD) and an NAD(P)HX epimerase (NAXE).
