Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

FEBS 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 ...

Adaptation of mouse skeletal muscle to long-term microgravity in the MDS mission. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
The effect of microgravity on skeletal muscles has so far been examined in rat and mice only after short-term (5-20 day) spaceflights. The mice drawer system (MDS) program, sponsored by Italian Space Agency, for the first time aimed to investigate the ...

Smaller is better: nanobodies meet NMR

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nanobodies are single‐domain antigen‐binding fragments derived from camelid heavy chain antibodies. Their small size, high stability, and exceptional specificity make nanobodies uniquely useful probes for NMR studies of protein dynamics, transient conformational states, and protein–protein interactions.

Costamere remodeling with muscle loading and unloading in healthy young men [PDF]

, 2013
Costameres are mechano-sensory sites of focal adhesion in the sarcolemma that provide a structural anchor for myofibrils. Their turnover is regulated by integrin-associated focal adhesion kinase (FAK).

Effects of Pb(II) and Zn(II) Contamination on Adsorption, Desorption and Degradation of Cry1Ac Toxin Identical to Bt Transgenic Poplar in Black Soil

Toxics, 2023
Bt transgenic white poplar has been commercially planted in China since 2002, and it showed obvious insect resistance in the field. However, the ecological risk of planting Bt transgenic poplar in a field contaminated with heavy metals has received ...

Membrane composition and thermodynamic identity as boundaries of life for synthetic cell research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
What makes a cell a cell? The boundary of a living cell is not just a wall. Read as a Markov blanket, the membrane separates internal from external states, generating identity and non‐equilibrium order. Can this identity be rebuilt from scratch in a synthetic cell?

Noninvasive Estimation of Myosin Heavy Chain Composition in Human Skeletal Muscle [PDF]

, 2011
Purpose: Information on muscle fiber type composition is of great importance in muscle physiology and athletic performance. Because there are only a few techniques available that noninvasively and accurately provide an estimate of muscle fiber type ...

Investigation on the efficiency of food waste fermentation solution as a supplementary carbon source for electroplating wastewater treatment

Gongye shui chuli
Large volumes of carbon sources must be added to electroplating wastewater to remove nitrogen and sustain microbial development as the wastewater contains high concentrations of nitrate nitrogen and a range of mixed heavy metal ions.
