This study presents the first multi‐duration, sex‐stratified transcriptomic analysis of prolonged diapause in Colaphellus bowringi, revealing that extended dormancy is maintained by coordinated metabolic suppression and sustained activation of cytoprotective pathways (e.g., glutathione metabolism, autophagy).

Structure of the crystallins [PDF]
The lens is formed from two protein superfamilies, the alpha- and beta gamma-crystallins. Representative three-dimensional structures show they both have a basic 2-beta-sheet domain fold, with the beta gamma-domain being made from two intercalating Greek keys.

Research Progression of Non-lens βγ-crystallins [PDF]
In vertebrates, βγ-crystallins are mainly expressed in the lens as structural protein, a lot of non-lens βγ-crystallins were also discovered in microbes and mammals, such as Protein S and Absent in Melanoma 1, which act as microbial stress-inducible ...

Exploring the Universe within the Human Lens Through Raman Spectroscopy
Ever since the emergence of refined modalities of cataract surgery, the looming question has been the same - How to improve the technique, to minimize manipulation of biological components and optimize the end result? The most recent development has been,

ABSTRACT Directly post‐infarction, myocardial tissue release signals that trigger an acute inflammatory response to clear debris and initiate cardiac repair. However, prolonged inflammation may drive adverse remodelling and heart failure in the long‐term.

Multiple Sclerosis and Viruses: « Liaisons Dangereuses »
ABSTRACT Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a complex, multifactorial neurodegenerative disease with an aetiology that is still partially elusive. Several risk factors are associated with MS development including genetic predisposition and various environmental stressors; however, recently, viral infections have gained significant attention as a crucial ...

A potential role for β- and γ-crystallins in the vascular remodeling of the eye
International audienceWe demonstrate that expression of beta- and gamma-crystallins is associated with intraocular vessels during normal vascular development of the eye and also in the Nuc1 rat, a mutant in which the hyaloid vascular system fails to ...

Astrocytic GAT3 regulates ambient GABA levels in the globus pallidus externus (GPe). Reduced GAT3 function enhances extrasynaptic GABAergic signalling and disrupts subthalamic nucleus (STN) regulation and cortical signal fidelity.ABSTRACTAlcohol use disorder (AUD) is characterized by a shift from controlled, goal‐directed drinking to compulsive ...

Calcium binding properties of beta-crystallins
β-Crystallins, the oligomeric proteins of the eye lens, were found to bind calcium ions with low affinity, in the millimolar range. Calcium was found to induce conformational changes in the secondary and tertiary structure of β-crystallins.
