Decoding Biomolecular Phase Separation: From Physiological Roles to Pathological Mechanisms and Therapeutic Biomaterials Design

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This review systematically elaborates on the mechanisms underlying physiological regulation and pathological dysregulation of biomolecular phase separation. It also summarizes advances in phase‑separation‑targeted therapeutic strategies and the design of functional biomaterials inspired by this process.

Endocannabinoids Inhibit the Growth of Free-Living Amoebae [PDF]

open access: yesAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2010
ABSTRACTThe cannabinoid Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol inhibits the growth of some pathogenic amoebaein vitroand exacerbates amoebic encephalitis in animal models. However, the effects of endogenous cannabinoids on amoebae remain unknown. Therefore, we tested several endocannabinoids (N-acyl ethanolamines and 2-O-acyl glycerol) on different genera of amoebae.

Nonpathogenic Free-Living Amoebae in Arkansas Recreational Waters [PDF]

open access: yes, 1975
Selected recreational waters of Arkansas were sampled for pathogenic free-living limax amoebae. Water quality parameters were determined for correlation with amoebic population densities and species diversity.

Investment centre manager's multiperiod fairness perceptions and intertemporal dependency

open access: yesAccounting &Finance, Volume 65, Issue 1, Page 3-36, March 2025.
Abstract This paper explores the motivation of investment centre managers when their investment centre's performance is affected by decisions made by their predecessor. Through a qualitative case study of a Japanese manufacturer, the effectiveness of conventional remedies for motivational issues and further motivational issues caused by the same ...

Cocultivation of Legionella pneumophila and free-living amoebae [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 1982
Studies of the interaction of Legionella pneumophila with free-living amoebae showed that Naegleria lovaniensis and Acanthamoeba royreba could use L. pneumophila as a sole food source. However, growth of the amoebae on nonnutrient agar plates seeded with L. pneumophila was slower than growth on nonnutrient agar plates seeded with Escherichia coli.

Parachlamydiaceae: Potential Emerging Pathogens

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2002
Parachlamydiaceae, which naturally infect amoebae, form a sister taxon to the Chlamydiaceae on the basis of the Chlamydia-like cycle of replication and 80% to 90% homology of ribosomal RNA genes.

Outcomes of therapeutic penetrating keratoplasty and deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty in acanthamoeba keratitis: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract While acanthamoeba keratitis (AK) is a sight‐threatening corneal infection, a thorough comparison of the outcomes of therapeutic penetrating keratoplasty (PK) and therapeutic deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK) is lacking. We aimed to compare clinical outcomes of PK and DALK in AK.

Environmental stress promotes the persistence of facultative bacterial symbionts in amoebae

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2023
Amoebae are one major group of protists that are widely found in natural and engineered environments. They are a significant threat to human health not only because many of them are pathogenic but also due to their unique role as an environmental shelter
