Epithelial organization and cyst lumen expansion require efficient Sec13-Sec31-driven secretion [PDF]
, 2012 Epithelial morphogenesis is directed by interactions with the underlying extracellular matrix. Secretion of collagen and other matrix components requires efficient coat complex II (COPII) vesicle formation at the endoplasmic reticulum. Here, we show that

When the going gets rough – studying the effect of surface roughness on the adhesive abilities of tree frogs [PDF]
, 2016 Tree frogs need to adhere to surfaces of various roughnesses in their natural habitats; these include bark, leaves and rocks. Rough surfaces can alter the effectiveness of their toe pads, due to factors such as a change of real contact area and abrasion

Inhalation of Low Molecular Weight Heparins as Prophylaxis against SARS-CoV-2
mBio, 2022 New SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern and waning immunity demonstrate the need for a quick and simple prophylactic agent to prevent infection. Low molecular weight heparins (LMWH) are potent inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 binding and infection in vitro.
