The microbiome in human skin aging

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐related skin changes encompass the well‐known visible phenotypic alterations, together with microbiome dysbiosis and a series of molecular aging hallmarks. These hallmarks characterize not only a fully stablished aged phenotype but also the skin aging process itself.

Companion animals

, 2012
Many animals are kept as companions: it is the nature of the relationship, and not the species, which identifies an animal as a ‘companion animal’ (Kristensen 2008). This paper considers aspects of keeping cats and dogs as human companions, reflecting on

Companion Animals in Zoonoses Research – Ethical Considerations [PDF]

Non-human animals are commonly classified according to their "role", such as "livestock", "wild" or "companion" animals. But what if those classifications overlap? This article presents a report of the retreat week "ZooCan – Zoonoses of companion animals

Autophagy and mitophagy in pancreatic β‐cell homeostasis and their involvement in diabetes pathophysiology

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review focuses on the role of autophagy and mitophagy in maintaining pancreatic β‐cell function and homeostasis. We discuss how genetic defects affecting these pathways contribute to the development of type 1, type 2, monogenic, and gestational diabetes. We further explore their potential as therapeutic targets. Created in BioRender.

Shedding of OXA-181 carbapenemase-producing Escherichia coli from companion animals after hospitalisation in Switzerland: an outbreak in 2018

Euro surveillance : bulletin Europeen sur les maladies transmissibles = European communicable disease bulletin, 2019
Background Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae pose a serious threat to public health worldwide, and the role of companion animals as a reservoir is still unclear.

Partial depletion of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 decreases subcutaneous fat cell hypertrophy and liver cholesterol in high‐fat‐fed female mice

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

Assessment of Antimicrobial Use for Companion Animals in South Korea: Developing Defined Daily Doses and Investigating Veterinarians’ Perception of AMR

There are global concerns regarding the transmission of antimicrobial-resistant pathogens from animals to humans. Especially, companion animals are increasingly recognized as a potential source due to their close interactions with people, despite a ...

Species-specific inflammatory responses of chondrocytes: Toward evidence-based model selection in OA research

iScience
Summary: To inform evidence-based osteoarthritis model selection, this study compares inflammatory responses of articular chondrocytes from six species (human, horse, sheep, rabbit, rat, and mouse) under standardized IL-1β and TNF-α stimulation in 2D and

Emerging experimental and computational methods for studying redox‐regulated structural transitions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Redox reactions can reshape proteins and alter how they behave in cells, with important consequences for health and disease. This review explores emerging experimental and computational approaches for discovering these redox‐sensitive protein switches, revealing their structural effects, and predicting their behavior, opening new opportunities to ...
