The heterodimeric amino acid transporters (HAT) of the SLC7/SLC3 family: A structure−function relationships and relevance to human pathology

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.

Microfiber loop resonator based temperature sensor [PDF]

Journal of the European Optical Society-Rapid Publications, 2011
A microfiber loop resonator (MLR) is fabricated by coiling a microfiber which is fabricated using a flame heating technique, into itself. A temperature response on a comb spectrum of a fabricated MLR, which is embedded in a low refractive index polymer ...

Thermally Induced Mode Amplification Characteristics of Large Mode Area Segmented Cladding Fiber

IEEE Photonics Journal, 2021
A model of amplifier based on large mode area (LMA) segmented cladding fiber (SCF) is proposed. High order modes (HOMs) filtering effect and thermal-induced modal evolution characteristics are theoretically investigated by the few-mode steady state rate ...

Lysyl oxidase (LOX)‐mediated remodeling of the extracellular matrix

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The lysyl oxidase (LOX) family of enzymes drives extracellular matrix remodeling by oxidizing collagen, elastin, and fibronectin, promoting covalent cross‐link formation. This activity regulates tissue architecture and mechanical properties, while its dysregulation contributes to fibrosis, cardiovascular disease, glaucoma, connective tissue disorders ...

Bispectral index detects intraoperative cerebral ischaemia during balloon assisted cerebral aneurysm coiling [v2; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/2xs]

F1000Research, 2014
Bispectral index (BIS) is a monitoring modality designed and used for monitoring depth of anaesthesia. We wish to report a case where BIS monitoring may have alerted us to a potential adverse neurological event during angiographic coiling of a cerebral ...

Prospective study on the sonographic Evaluation of umbilicalcord coiling Index in late second trimester and its Association with perinatal outcome [PDF]

, 2013
INTRODUCTION: The umbilical cord is the major feto maternal unit that provides communication between the placenta and fetus. It is the life line of the fetus as it supplies water, nutrients and oxygen.

Smaller is better: nanobodies meet NMR

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nanobodies are single‐domain antigen‐binding fragments derived from camelid heavy chain antibodies. Their small size, high stability, and exceptional specificity make nanobodies uniquely useful probes for NMR studies of protein dynamics, transient conformational states, and protein–protein interactions.

The accommodation index measures the perturbation associated with insertions and deletions in coiled‐coils: Application to understand signaling in histidine kinases [PDF]

Protein Science, 2017
AbstractCoiled‐coils are essential components of many protein complexes. First discovered in structural proteins such as keratins, they have since been found to figure largely in the assembly and dynamics required for diverse functions, including membrane fusion, signal transduction and motors. Coiled‐coils have a characteristic repeating seven‐residue

Membrane composition and thermodynamic identity as boundaries of life for synthetic cell research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
What makes a cell a cell? The boundary of a living cell is not just a wall. Read as a Markov blanket, the membrane separates internal from external states, generating identity and non‐equilibrium order. Can this identity be rebuilt from scratch in a synthetic cell?

Impact of aneurysm sac size on the effectiveness of endovascular coiling in patient-specific middle cerebral artery aneurysms: a computational study

Scientific Reports
This study investigates the hemodynamic efficiency of endovascular coiling in the treatment of patient-specific middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysms using computational models of both original and scaled-down geometries.
