Deep Multimodal Phenotyping and Sensor Fusion for Preharvest Cotton Quality Assessment and Agricultural Economic Decision Support

Sensors
Cotton fiber quality is shaped during boll development, boll opening, fluffing, and harvesting, but current assessment still relies largely on manual field inspection and postharvest laboratory testing.

Hyperactive ice‐binding proteins stabilize cell membranes and improve resistance to dehydration stress in Caenorhabditis elegans

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TisIBP8, a fungal‐derived hyperactive ice‐binding protein, helps Caenorhabditis elegans survive dehydration. It localizes near cell membranes, reduces cell damage, and helps maintain membrane structure during drying. These results suggest that ice‐binding proteins can protect cells from dehydration stress as well as freezing stress.

Maturation of Fiber Membranes in the Human Eye Lens

Ophthalmic Research, 2009
Electron microscopic, freeze fracture and cholesterol cytochemical studies have revealed that the maturation of lens fibers is accompanied by considerable changes in the ultrastructure of their limiting membranes. These changes are in line with biochemical studies on the cholesterol content in the lens and support the physiological notion that upon ...

Fiberless Recombinant Adenoviruses: Virus Maturation and Infectivity in the Absence of Fiber [PDF]

Journal of Virology, 1999
ABSTRACT In vivo targeting of therapeutic genes to specific tissues has become a major issue in gene therapy, in particular when recombinant adenovirus vectors are used. Restriction of the viral tropism to selected cell types requires the abrogation of the interaction between the viral fiber and its natural cellular receptors and

GelMA‐based 3D spheroids recapitulate transcriptomic and functional hallmarks of myeloid sarcoma

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
GelMA 5% hydrogels support the formation of myeloid leukemia spheroids that recapitulate MS‐specific features, including G1 arrest, apoptosis, and ECM‐driven transcriptomic reprogramming. The 3D model mimicked soft‐tissue‐like stiffness and oxygen conditions, and transcriptomic convergence with primary MS samples confirmed its utility as a preclinical ...

Exploring Genetic Variability and Morpho-Agronomic Trait Associations Among Ethiopian Flax (Linum Usitatissimum L.) Accessions for Enhanced Fiber and Seed Yield

Journal of Natural Fibers
Flax is a versatile crop grown for its fiber and seed oil. Despite extensive conservation efforts in Ethiopia, the genetic potential of flax accessions conserved in the gene bank remains largely underexplored for fiber and seed yield.

Normal‐Appearing White Matter Injury Mediates Chronic Deep Venous Hypoxia and Disease Progression in Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To explore how cerebral hypoxia and Normal‐Appearing White Matter (NAWM) integrity affect MS lesion burden and clinical course. Methods Seventy‐nine MS patients, including 13 clinically isolated syndrome (CIS) patients and 66 relapsing–remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) patients, and 44 healthy controls (HCs) were recruited from ...

Effect of Electromechanical Stimulation on the Maturation of Myotubes on Aligned Electrospun Fibers [PDF]

Cellular and Molecular Bioengineering, 2008
Tissue engineering may provide an alternative to cell injection as a therapeutic solution for myocardial infarction. A tissue-engineered muscle patch may offer better host integration and higher functional performance. This study examined the differentiation of skeletal myoblasts on aligned electrospun polyurethane (PU) fibers and in the presence of ...

Cracking the Code: Genotype–Phenotype Correlation Models in Sarcoglycanopathies

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Sarcoglycanopathies are among the most severe limb‐girdle muscular dystrophies (LGMD), though milder presentations have been described. These diseases are primarily caused by missense variants, but the limited predictability of their effect on protein maturation, complex formation, and transport has hindered reliable genotype ...
