Improvement in XIa Selectivity of Snake Venom Peptide Analogue BF9-N17K Using P2′ Amino Acid Replacements

open access: yesToxins
Coagulation factor XIa is a new serine-protease family drug target for next-generation anticoagulants. With the snake venom Kunitz-type peptide BF9 as the scaffold, we obtained a highly active XIa inhibitor BF9-N17K in our previous work, but it also ...

Embryonic Stem Cell Research as an Ethical Issue: On the Emptiness of Symbolic Value [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The debate over human embryonic stem cell research-scientific and clinical prospects as well as ethical implications-became front-page news only after two teams of university researchers reported in November 1998 that they had isolated and cultured human

Anchorage‐independent and faster growth in clonal population from UV‐irradiated NER‐deficient cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
UV‐irradiated cells expressing a DDB2 mutant protein unable to interact with PCNA (DDB2PCNA‐) form clones able to grow without anchorage. Different experimental approaches reveal heterogeneity in cell cycle regulation and drug response within these clones, emphasizing the crucial role of the DDB2‐PCNA interaction in preventing cellular transformation ...

Derivation and characterization of retinal pigment epithelium from urine‐derived iPSCs

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Age‐related macular degeneration causes vision loss via RPE dysfunction and loss. Traditional iPSC therapies rely on invasive biopsies, limiting scalability. Here, we utilize urine‐derived stem cells as an accessible source to generate u‐iPSCs, successfully differentiated into pigmented RPE. This “Urine‐to‐Retina” platform provides a promising path for

ABI3BP promotes renal aging through Klotho-mediated ferroptosis

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine
The aging process of the kidneys is accompanied with several structural diseases. Abnormal fiber formation disrupts the balance of kidney structure and function, causing to end-stage renal disease and subsequent renal failure.

New perspectives to repair a broken heart [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The aim of cardiac cell therapy is to restore at least in part the functionality of the diseased or injured myocardium by the use of stem/ progenitor cells.

UiO‐66 metal–organic frameworks in biomedicine: From structural tunability to bioimaging, photodiagnostics, and photodynamic cancer therapy

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
UiO‐66(Zr) metal–organic frameworks are chemically stable, biocompatible, and highly tunable nanomaterials. Their modular structure enables controlled drug delivery, multimodal bioimaging, and light‐activated photodynamic therapy, supporting integrated diagnostic and therapeutic (theranostic) applications in cancer and biomedical research.

Hypermethylation-mediated HNF4A silencing by Helicobacter pylori infection drives gastric cancer by disrupting epithelial cell polarity and activating EMT signaling

open access: yesCell Death and Disease
Helicobacter pylori (Hp.) infection is one of the high-risk factors for gastric carcinogenesis (GC). However, the underlying mechanism remains largely unclear. In this study, we uncover an essential role of Hp.
