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

The microbiome in human skin aging

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐related skin changes encompass the well‐known visible phenotypic alterations, together with microbiome dysbiosis and a series of molecular aging hallmarks. These hallmarks characterize not only a fully stablished aged phenotype but also the skin aging process itself.

Functional associations of the gut microbiome with dopamine, serotonin, and BDNF in schizophrenia: a pilot study

The Egyptian Journal of Neurology, Psychiatry and Neurosurgery
Background Schizophrenia is a complex neuropsychiatric disorder with various etiologic factors. Aberrant levels of neurotransmitters or growth factors such as dopamine, serotonin, and BDNF have been shown to cause cognitive impairment in schizophrenia ...

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.

Poole -- Model-Driven Architecture. ECOOP 2001.

, 2001
This paper surveys the core OMG MDA standards (i.e., UML, MOF, XMI and CWM) and discusses the current attempts at mapping these standards to J2EE, as examples of PIM-to-PSM translations that are currently under development.

Partial depletion of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 decreases subcutaneous fat cell hypertrophy and liver cholesterol in high‐fat‐fed female mice

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

Risk and reward: evaluating household energy storage for optimizing demand-side flexibility under dynamic tariffs

Energy Informatics
Electricity markets increasingly rely on residential demand-side flexibility to integrate renewables and stabilize the grid. While dynamic tariffs can unlock short-term flexibility, they expose households to a risk–reward trade-off. This paper quantifies

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 ...

The SIMDA framework maps PIP2-binding sites regulating the KCNQ1 channel

Nature Communications
Voltage-gated potassium channel KCNQ1 (Kv7.1) underpins cardiac repolarization, epithelial ion transport, and inner ear function. Its versatility arises from interactions with KCNE proteins, calmodulin (CaM), and the lipid phosphatidylinositol 4,5 ...

Emerging experimental and computational methods for studying redox‐regulated structural transitions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Redox reactions can reshape proteins and alter how they behave in cells, with important consequences for health and disease. This review explores emerging experimental and computational approaches for discovering these redox‐sensitive protein switches, revealing their structural effects, and predicting their behavior, opening new opportunities to ...
