Baicalin: a potential therapeutic agent for acute kidney injury and renal fibrosis

Frontiers in Pharmacology
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common critical clinical disease that is linked to significant morbidity, recurrence, and mortality. It is characterized by a fast and prolonged loss in renal function arising from numerous etiologies and pathogenic ...

Detecting Damage in Composites [PDF]

Mechanical Engineering, 1998
Research shows that polarimetric optical-fiber sensors embedded in composite laminates can monitor structural integrity and detect damage while the structure remains in service. An experimental arrangement can be created to monitor strain in composite specimens.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.
