To compare the effects of cytochalasins on the cellular level with those on the molecular level, 24 cytochalasins, 20 natural compounds and 4 derivatives, were used. The following effects were tested for each of 24 cytochalasins; (a) four high dose (2-20

Mechanical Force Promotes Mitochondrial Transfer From Macrophages to BMSCs to Enhance Bone Formation
Mechanical tension activates Drp1‐mediated mitochondrial fission in macrophages, facilitating the release of Mito‐EVs that are subsequently transferred to BMSCs. Additionally, the CD200R‐CD200 interaction enhances the uptake of these mechanically stimulated macrophage‐derived Mito‐EVs by BMSCs, ultimately promoting osteogenic differentiation.

Autophagy is a cellular degradation process involved in, for example, immune responses to pathogens and neurodegeneration. To identify modulators of autophagy, we developed a microscopy‐based screening assay and identified previously unknown autophagy‐modulating activities in known drugs and natural products from myxobacteria and fungi.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), comprising ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), is a recognised gastrointestinal disorder. Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) is implicated in IBD pathogenesis. Persistent exposure and active infections by MAP may contribute to the unsilencing of human endogenous retroviruses (HERV ...

Looking at cell mechanics with atomic force microscopy: Experiment and theory [PDF]
This review reports on the use of the atomic force microscopy in the investigation of the mechanical properties of cells. It is shown that the technique is able to deliver information about the cell surface properties (e.g., topography), the Young ...

Traction force generation in Plasmodium sporozoites is modulated by a surface adhesin
Abstract Plasmodium sporozoites are the highly polarised and motile forms of the malaria parasite transmitted by mosquitoes to the vertebrate hosts. Sporozoites use myosin motors to generate retrograde flow of actin filaments. These are linked to plasma membrane spanning adhesins, which in turn bind to the extracellular environment, resulting in ...

شاهدی بر وجود جريان پتاسيمی جبرانی تأخيری فوق سريع (IKur) در دو گره سينوسی- دهليزی و دهليزی- بطنی قلب موش صحرايی [PDF]
زمينه: گره سينوسی-دهليزی مرکز فعاليت پيس ميکری اوليه قلب می باشد. اگر به هر دليلی، گره سينوسی-دهليزی فعاليت خود را از دست بدهد، گره دهليزی-بطنی فوراً شروع به تنظيم فعاليت های قلب می نمايد.

Deciphering the biosynthetic pathways of lichen acids
Summary Depsides and depsidones are polyketide‐derived lichen acids widely distributed in lichen thalli, yet the biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) responsible for their production remain poorly understood. To address this gap, we investigated the diversity and evolutionary relationships of polyketide BGCs in lichens.

The Outcome of Intracellular Selenomonas sputigena and its Impact on Gingival Keratinocytes
ABSTRACT Selenomonas sputigena is an understudied oral pathobiont associated with periodontitis and dental caries. We recently demonstrated that S. sputigena binds to gingival epithelial cells (GECs), where afterwards the bacterium causes robust in vitro pro‐inflammatory cytokine production and migration of monocytes and neutrophils.

Abstract Background While plasma transfusion is a key resuscitation strategy, its mechanisms of benefit beyond coagulopathy correction remain unclear. Solvent detergent plasma, which contains high glycine levels and lacks inflammatory mediators, may offer advantages over fresh frozen plasma by preserving endothelial integrity and reducing inflammation.
