This study discovered a new pathway that tells fruit flies when to stop eating. It found that rising blood sugar (fructose) is detected by a sensor called GR43a. This triggers a chain reaction involving the satiety signal sulfakinin and its receptor, ultimately activating a final satiety signal, ILP5.

Bioluminescent Mammalian Cells Grown in Sponge Matrices to Monitor Immune Rejection
The growth and bioluminescence of cells seeded in collagen and gelatin sponge matrices were compared in vitro under different conditions, and immune rejection was quantified and visualized directly in situ based on loss of bioluminescence activity ...

We established patient‐derived SWN cell lines and orthotopic PDX models that recapitulate patient pain phenotypes, alongside a novel intravital DRG imaging platform to track macrophage infiltration and neuronal pain responses. Using these models, we define HMGB1–CCL2–IL‐6 signaling crosstalk driving pain and identify EGF signaling as a key regulator of

We established light‐ and bioluminescence‐responsive systems that allow reversible conjugation and dissociation of proteins on the inner leaflet of asymmetric lipid–amphiphilic protein hybrid vesicles. These systems provide a versatile platform for precise spatiotemporal regulation and bioluminescence‐triggered protein release within synthetic vesicles.

Bioluminescence Monitoring of Neuronal Activity in Freely Moving Zebrafish Larvae
The proof of concept for bioluminescence monitoring of neural activity in zebrafish with the genetically encoded calcium indicator GFP-aequorin has been previously described (Naumann et al., 2010) but challenges remain.

Abstract Background and Purpose Lactate, historically viewed as a metabolic by‐product, has emerged as a signalling molecule via the G protein–coupled receptor Hydroxycarboxylic Acid Receptor 1 (HCAR1). The receptor is primarily expressed in adipocytes but also found in various other tissues.

A Computational Modeling of ADLumin Chemiluminescence: Oxygenation and Dioxetanone Formation
Chemiluminescent ADLumin molecules were studied using DFT to investigate their mechanisms of oxygenation and dioxetanone formation. Different oxygenation sites were explored for initiating competing reaction pathways that converge to the same 1,2‐dioxetanone intermediate.

This study evaluates 3D‐printed recombinant spider silk hydrogel eADF4(C16)‐RGD in a rat AV loop model for tissue engineering. Constructs with T17b endothelial progenitor cells showed enhanced vascularization and biodegradation. Results highlight the importance of scaffold design and cellular integration in improving vascular density and overall ...
