Dehydration regulates structural reorganization of dynamic hydrogels

Nature Communications
The dehydration process is widely recognized as a significant phenomenon in nature. Hydrogels, which are important functional materials with high water content and crosslinked networks, encounter the issue of dehydration in their practical applications ...

Assessment of Exercise-Induced Dehydration Status Based on Oral Mucosal Moisture in a Field Survey

Dentistry Journal
Background/Objective: Conventional techniques for evaluating hydration status include the analysis of blood, urine, and body weight. Recently, advancements in dentistry have introduced capacitance sensor-based oral epithelial moisture meters as promising

Management of Listeria monocytogenes on Surfaces via Relative Air Humidity: Key Role of Cell Envelope

Foods, 2021
Although relative air humidity (RH) strongly influences microbial survival, its use for fighting surface pathogens in the food industry has been inadequately considered.

An epithelial GPR35 isoform supports tumor‐associated transcriptional and metabolic phenotypes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
GPR35 generates two functionally distinct isoforms with previously unresolved roles. GPR35‐short mediates immune‐cell chemotaxis, while GPR35‐long is enriched in colorectal cancer epithelium, where it supports increased metabolism, proliferation, and tumor‐associated transcriptional programs.

KDM7A and KDM1A inhibition suppresses tumour promoting pathways in prostate cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Treatment resistance is a major challenge for patients with advanced prostate cancer. This study examined an alternative approach to target the major prostate cancer‐promoting pathway by targeting epigenetic factors, whose levels are higher in tumours.

Prevalence and Risk Factors of Diarrhoea among Critically Ill Patients in Intensive Care Units: A Cross-sectional Study [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research
Introduction: Diarrhoea is common in critically ill patients that may be caused due to many factors such as Clostridium difficile, drugs (e.g., laxatives, antibiotics) and enteral feeds. The incidence of diarrhoea in the Intensive Care Units (ICU)

Loss of proton‐sensing TDAG8 increases tumor progression in mouse models of colon cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the pH‐sensing receptor TDAG8 accelerates colorectal cancer progression in mice. Animals lacking TDAG8 expression had increased tumor growth, DNA damage, and recruitment of tumor‐associated immune cells, including macrophages, neutrophils, and monocytes.

CEACAM1 participation in breast cancer progression

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In invasive breast cancer (BC), CEACAM1 shifts from an apical to a uniform membranous/cytoplasmic pattern, or is lost, as tumors dedifferentiate, inversely tracking the Ki‐67 proliferative index. In MCF‐7 cells, only CEACAM1‐4L suppresses proliferation, repressing cell cycle and growth factor genes.

Analysing the significance of small conformational changes and low occupancy states in serial crystallographic data

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This protocol paper outlines methods to establish the success of a time‐resolved serial crystallographic experiment, by means of statistical analysis of timepoint data in reciprocal space and models in real space. We show how to amplify the signal from excited states to visualise structural changes in successful experiments.
