Organizing the interface—Plasma membrane architecture and receptor dynamics in virus‐cell interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

EEFDA: enabling efficient and fault-tolerant data aggregation scheme without TA in smart grid

Complex & Intelligent Systems
Smart grid can be effectively enhanced by user data, however, data breaches pose significant risks related to privacy violations and data misuse. To address this issue, fault-tolerant privacy-preserving data aggregation schemes can protect data privacy ...

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Security-Mediated Certificateless Cryptography [PDF]

, 2006
We introduce the notion of security-mediated certificateless (SMC) cryptography. This allows more lightweight versions of mediated cryptography while maintaining the ability for instantaneous revocation of keys.

IAGF: a dual-path collaborative inconsistency-aware global fusion network for multimodal sarcasm detection

Journal of King Saud University: Computer and Information Sciences
Multimodal sarcasm detection aims to identify ironic intent from textual and visual information, with the core challenge lying in capturing semantic inconsistencies between different modalities.

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses
