Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.

A One-Shot FPGA Based Depth Acquisition System

IEEE Access, 2018
This paper introduces a field-programmable gate array (FPGA)-based one-shot depth acquisition system, which is a kind of Kinect-like Depth sensing. The proposed implementation integrates the random binary pattern with an improved matching method, which ...

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

DANet: Joint Density- and Semantics-Adaptive Convolution for 3D Point-Cloud Semantic Segmentation

Sensors
Semantic segmentation of 3D point clouds remains difficult when LiDAR or depth-camera data are sampled unevenly. This paper presents DANet, a 3D semantic segmentation framework built on joint density- and semantics-adaptive convolution. Its core operator,

Autophagy and mitophagy in pancreatic β‐cell homeostasis and their involvement in diabetes pathophysiology

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review focuses on the role of autophagy and mitophagy in maintaining pancreatic β‐cell function and homeostasis. We discuss how genetic defects affecting these pathways contribute to the development of type 1, type 2, monogenic, and gestational diabetes. We further explore their potential as therapeutic targets. Created in BioRender.

A Preliminary Concurrent Validation of a Portable Markerless Motion Capture System Against Three-Dimensional Gait Analysis Following Total Hip and Knee Arthroplasty

Sensors
Three-dimensional gait analysis (3DGA) in patients undergoing total hip and knee arthroplasty (THA and TKA, respectively) is impractical for widespread clinical use. This study evaluated the Azure Kinect, combined with the Motognosis AMSA software (AK-M),

Sparse sensing for resource-constrained depth reconstruction [PDF]

2016 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS), 2016
We address the following question: is it possible to reconstruct the geometry of an unknown environment using sparse and incomplete depth measurements? This problem is relevant for a resource-constrained robot that has to navigate and map an environment, but does not have enough on-board power or payload to carry a traditional depth sensor (e.g., a 3D ...

Ligand‐dependent transcriptional heterogeneity in cell cycle gene expression delays G1/S entry

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
EGF and HRG induce distinct G1/S progression programs in ErbB2‐amplified BT474 breast cancer cells. Despite activating the potent ErbB2–ErbB3 heterodimer, HRG does not accelerate cell‐cycle entry. Instead, EGF promotes earlier restriction‐point passage via ERK–FOS signaling, whereas HRG activates the AKT–MYC axis, driving transcriptional heterogeneity ...

High-Fidelity Depth Map Reconstruction System With RGB-Guided Super Resolution CNN and Cross-Calibrated Chaos LiDAR

IEEE Access
High-fidelity 3D models are essential for immersive virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR) applications. However, the performance of current 3D recording devices is limited in several scenarios, such as dim light environments, long-distance measurements ...
