Pharmacological Effects of a Novel Bradykinin-Related Peptide (RR-18) from the Skin Secretion of the Hejiang Frog (Ordorrana hejiangensis) on Smooth Muscle

Biomedicines, 2020
Bradykinin (BK) and bradykinin-related peptides (BRPs), which were identified from a diversity of amphibian skin secretions, exerted contractile and relaxing effects on non-vascular and vascular smooth muscle, respectively.

Islet Amyloid Polypeptide Modelled to Simulate Diabetes Co‐Oligomerized with β‐Amyloid 1‐42 Reproducing the Pathological Cascade of Alzheimer's Disease in Human Cerebral Organoids

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP) was used to mimic T2DM, and Aβ42‐hIAPP co‐oligomers were delivered into the human mature cerebral organoids (COs), which reproduce typical AD pathology and significant neuronal death more closely resembling that of AD patients.

Hydrogen‐Bonding Networks Enabled by Trace Water for Morphological Design in Ternary Organic Solar Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Trace water transforms from an impurity to a design handle for ternary organic solar cells. During solvent evaporation, minimal amounts organize transient hydrogen‐bonding networks that steer component migration and set the morphology. The mechanism enables reproducible morphology locking and identifies a practical co‐solvent threshold near H2O:CF = 0 ...

Importance of Spring Habitats for Amphibians: The Case of Estavelle Ecotones in the Classical Karst Region

Animals
Springs are ecotones between groundwater and surface water, important for a variety of both surficial and subterranean organisms. However, their use by amphibians has been poorly assessed.
