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.

Superconvergence of Mixed Finite Element Method with Bernstein Polynomials for Stokes Problem
In this paper, we employ interpolation and projection methodologies to establish a superconvergence outcome for the Stokes problem, as approximated by the mixed finite element method (FEM) utilizing Bernstein polynomial basis functions.

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

Translophagy—A potential link between autophagy impairment and translational errors
Neurodegenerative diseases are characterised by the accumulation of abnormal proteins and protein aggregates, but their origin often remains unknown. We propose that selective autophagy removes damaged protein‐making machinery, preventing errors during protein synthesis.

Stability, instability, and error of the force-based quasicontinuum approximation [PDF]
Due to their algorithmic simplicity and high accuracy, force-based model coupling techniques are popular tools in computational physics. For example, the force-based quasicontinuum (QCF) approximation is the only known pointwise consistent quasicontinuum

Analyzing nonlinear Schrödinger equations by the complex variable element-free Galerkin method
This article proposes a complex variable element-free Galerkin (CVEFG) method for analyzing the nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation. A second-order accurate scheme is presented to achieve temporal discretization and linearize the nonlinear term, and the

Encapsulins are protein nanocompartments that play an important role in iron storage. In the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin system, two cargo proteins called EncB and EncC contribute to iron mineralization. Here, we show that EncB and EncC generate iron‐containing minerals with distinct chemical compositions, suggesting that the composition of stored ...

Estimation for the Multivariate Errors-in-Variables Model with Estimated Error Covariance Matrix
The authors consider the estimation problem of multivariate errors-in- variables models. Let \(r\times 1\) row vectors \(y_ i\) and \(k\times 1\) row vectors \(x_ i\) satisfy \(y_ i=\beta_ 0+x_ i\beta\), \(i=1,2,...,n\), where \(\beta_ 0\) and \(\beta\) are 1\(\times r\) and \(k\times r\) matrices of parameters, respectively.

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation
Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...
