Making tau amyloid models in vitro: a crucial and underestimated challenge

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review highlights the challenges of producing in vitro amyloid assemblies of the tau protein. We review how accurately the existing protocols mimic tau deposits found in the brain of patients affected with tauopathies. We discuss the important properties that should be considered when forming amyloids and the benchmarks that should be used to ...

Conditional Preference Orders and their Numerical Representations [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2014
We provide an axiomatic system modeling conditional preference orders which is based on conditional set theory. Conditional numerical representations are introduced, and a conditional version of the theorems of Debreu on the existence of numerical representations is proved.

Unraveling Mycobacterium tuberculosis acid resistance and pH homeostasis mechanisms

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mycobacterium tuberculosis exhibits a remarkable resilience to acid stress. In this Review, we discuss some of the molecular mechanisms and metabolic pathways used by the tubercle bacilli to adapt and resist host‐mediated acid stress. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is a successful pathogen that has developed a variety of strategies to survive and ...

Stress effects on working memory, explicit memory, and implicit memory for neutral and emotional stimuli in healthy men

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2009
Stress is a strong modulator of memory function. However, memory is not a unitary process and stress seems to exert different effects depending on the memory type under study.

Unconventional mRNA processing and degradation pathways for the polycistronic yrzI (spyTA) mRNA in Bacillus subtilis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The S1025 peptide is the major antidote to the YrzI toxin, which we renamed here as SpyT (Small Peptide YrzI Toxin) and SpyA (Small Peptide YrzI Antitoxin) (1). Degradation of the toxin–antitoxin spyTA mRNA, either by a translation‐dependent cleavage by the endoribonuclease Rae1 (2) or by direct attack by 3′‐exoribonucleases (3), also contributes to ...

The solution supramolecular structure of α2 → 8 polysialic acid suggests a structural cause for its low immunogenicity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
α2 → 8 polysialic acid elicits poor immunogenicity. Small‐angle scattering shows a supramolecular structure with parallel‐chain binding, although in different forms at μm and mm calcium. The major histocompatibility complex requires molecular weights around 2000 Da to produce antibodies, and 2000 Da polysialic oligomers will bind in these structures ...

Condition numbers and their condition numbers

open access: yesLinear Algebra and its Applications, 1995
AbstractVarious normwise relative condition numbers that measure the sensitivity of matrix inversion and the solution of linear systems are characterized. New results are derived for the cases where two common, noninduced matrix norms are used, and where different vector norms are used for the domain and range of the matrix.

Conditional Punishment [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2014
We elicit human conditional punishment types by conducting experiments. We find that their punishment decisions to an individual are on average significantly positively proportional to other members’ punishment decisions to that individual.

The power of microRNA regulation—insights into immunity and metabolism

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
MicroRNAs are emerging as crucial regulators at the intersection of metabolism and immunity. This review examines how miRNAs coordinate glucose and lipid metabolism while simultaneously modulating T‐cell development and immune responses. Moreover, it highlights how cutting‐edge artificial intelligence applications can identify miRNA biomarkers ...

A note on the Berman condition [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2010
It is established that if a time series satisfies the Berman condition, and another related (summability) condition, the result of filtering that series through a certain type of filter also satisfies the two conditions. In particular it follows that if $X_t$ satisfies the two conditions and if $X_t$ and $a_t$ are related by an invertible ARMA model ...
