Enzymatic degradation of biopolymers in amorphous and molten states: mechanisms and applications
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.This review explains how polymer morphology and thermal state shape enzymatic degradation pathways, comparing amorphous and molten biopolymer structures. By integrating structure–reactivity principles with insights from thermodynamics and enzyme engineering, it highlights mechanisms that enable efficient polymer breakdown.

The role of lipid metabolism in neuronal senescence
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Disrupted lipid metabolism, through alterations in lipid species or lipid droplet accumulation, can drive neuronal senescence. However, lipid dyshomeostasis can also occur alongside neuronal senescence, further amplifying tissue damage. Delineating how lipid‐induced senescence emerges in neurons and glial cells, and how it contributes to ageing and ...

The swallow, a target to follow the restauration of consciousness in acquired brain injury
Journal of Rehabilitation MedicineIntroduction: Brain injuries are the leading cause of disorders of consciousness and are often complicated by swallowing disorders. The aim of this study was to determine whether a correlation existed between swallowing and level of consciousness in ...

The ethical relevance of the unconscious
Philosophy, Ethics, and Humanities in Medicine, 2017 Background Ethical analyses of disorders of consciousness traditionally focus on residual awareness. Going one step further, this paper explores the potential ethical relevance of the unawareness retained by patients with disorders of consciousness ...

Ever Present: Attention and Alertness in the Unawake [PDF]
, 2013 Unlike patients diagnosed with traditional sleep disorders, this subject displays persistent equivalence of consciousness even while asleep. This poses a set of epistemic challenges to ideas of what constitutes sleep, self, and awareness.Peer ...
