Numerical simulation of colloid dead-end filtration: effect of membrane characteristics and operating conditions on matter accumulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The aim of this work is to develop a simulation capability applicable to dead-end filtration of colloidal dispersions in order to investigate the effect of process conditions, such as membrane configuration and operating parameters, on filtration ...

Accumulation of Paralytic Shellfish Toxins in Mytilus unguiculatus and Its Effect on Filtration Rate

open access: yesProgress in Fishery Sciences
Paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs) are a class of neurotoxic marine biotoxins that are widely distributed and cause more than 2, 000 poisoning events worldwide each year, with mortality rates of up to 15%.

Peripheral lysosomes recruit PLEKHG3 to focal adhesions and restrain protrusion dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proximity‐dependent labeling at the LAMTOR complex revealed the Rho GEF PLEKHG3 as a lysosome‐proximal protein directing the study toward the influence of lysosome positioning on actin dynamics and cell motility. We show that PLEKHG3 colocalizes with lysosomes at focal adhesion sites and observe that forced peripheral dispersion of lysosomes hinders ...

N-acetylcysteine in the prevention of radiocontrast-induced nephropathy: clinical trials and end points [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
N-acetylcysteine (NAC) has been suggested to prevent radiocontrast-induced nephropathy (RCIN) in patients with a reduced renal function. However, clinical studies have not been demonstrating this effect consistently.

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Genome-wide association and functional follow-up reveals new loci for kidney function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an important public health problem with a genetic component. We performed genome-wide association studies in up to 130,600 European ancestry participants overall, and stratified for key CKD risk factors. We uncovered 6 new

Determination of Filtration Grade in Woven Screen Filters: Influence of Material, Weave Pattern, and Filtration Rate

open access: yesAgriEngineering
Screen filters are widely used to retain suspended solids. Their performance depends not only on the nominal aperture size but also on the structural characteristics of the filter element, including material properties, weave pattern, and filtration rate.

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

open access: yesFEBS 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.
