Moderate increase of MET in hepatocytes protects against cholestatic liver injury by promoting an effective antioxidant response. [PDF]
Moderate overexpression of wild‐type Met in hepatocytes (Alb‐R26Met mouse model) boosts a strong antioxidant response dependent on the glutathione system while impairing TGF‐β signaling in the liver. This leads to improved liver regeneration and protects against DDC‐induced injury, a model for cholestatic disease sharing features with primary ...

Hepatocyte Mettl3 Deficiency Drives Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis and Liver Fibrosis via Cholangiocyte-Macrophage Crosstalk. [PDF]
Schematic illustration demonstrating that hepatic Mettl3 depletion significantly elevates the secretion of Mif and Csf1. This elevation facilitates Trem2+ macrophage infiltration and triggers cholangiocyte remodeling through the Spp1‐Cd44 interaction, resulting in spontaneous PSC development in vivo.

Methylglyoxal Affects Dopamine Homeostasis in SH-SY5Y Cells Through the Modulation of miR-190a and miR-214. [PDF]
In SH‐SY5Y cells, Methylglyoxal (MGO) reduces the intracellular dopamine content, up‐regulating the expression of proteins that modulate dopamine amount (MAO‐B, COMT, and α‐Syn). The MGO‐induced increase of COMT and α‐Syn expression is mediated by the reduction of miR‐214 and miR‐190a levels.

Endothelial NAD<sup>+</sup> depletion drives vascular senescence and neuroinflammation via mtDNA-cGAS/STING-CD38 signaling in Alzheimer's disease. [PDF]
Abstract BACKGROUND Endothelial dysfunction has emerged as early and pivotal event in Alzheimer's disease (AD), yet the molecular mechanisms linking vascular aging to neuroinflammation remain elusive. METHODS We used APP/PS1 mice and amyloid beta (Aβ)–challenged brain endothelial cells (BECs) to understand the mechanisms of nicotinamide adenine ...

Epimer discrimination remains challenging due to subtle NMR differences. Here, we propose a methodology based on 13C‐RCSA and RDC anisotropic parameters, enabling the assignment of two flexible tetraprenyltoluquinol epimers (1a and 1b) with remote stereoclusters.

ABSTRACT High‐resolution and accurate synoptic images of terrestrial topography, even in densely forested areas, have proven valuable for archaeology by enabling the identification and characterization of relief patterns associated with ancient human activities. This study presents a novel approach that integrates digital terrain models (DTMs) obtained

Consistent Choice of Prey Source Habitat Across Diverse Landscapes by a Selective Insectivorous Bat
After analyzing the diet of the greater horseshoe bats in three distinct colonies, we identified significant spatial and temporal differences, particularly noting a stronger reliance on riparian habitats in Mediterranean areas. The species exhibits great ecological adaptability with strong plasticity in prey source habitats, shifting preferences among ...

Molecular, genetic, virological, and biochemical analysis in combination with global proteome and phosphoproteome profiling and functional assays were applied to study the role of PR130 in the context of HSV‐1 replication. The observations reveal that host‐intrinsic mechanisms regulate HSV‐1 replication and highlight PR130 as a susceptibility factor of

A Plug‐and‐Play Platform for Customizing Multivalent Degraders and Degrader‐Drug Conjugates
Membrane proteins remain challenging targets for conventional TPD approaches. Here, the authors develop UPTAB, a modular platform leveraging ultrahigh‐affinity orthogonal Im/CL protein pairs for lysosomal degradation of membrane proteins. Mono‐targeted (Type‐I), dual‐targeted (Type‐II), and tri‐targeted (Type‐III) UPTABs enable simultaneous degradation

Traction Force Microscopy for Viscoelastic Substrates: A Semi‐Analytical Method
A semi‐analytical viscoelastic traction force microscopy framework is introduced for quantifying time‐resolved cell tractions on flat finite‐thickness substrates. The method generalizes elastic traction force microscopy to Generalized Maxwell materials, identifies when elastic approximations remain valid and, when they do not, shows that inferred ...
