Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

Image Contrast Improvement in Interference-Dark-Field Digital Holographic Microscopy
Photonics, 2021 Conventional dark-field digital holographic microscopy (DHM) techniques require the use of specialized optics, and, thus, obtaining dark-field images with high contrast has a high cost. Herein, we propose a DHM system that uses an interference-dark-field

Organoids in pediatric cancer research
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Effect of Contrast and Adaptation on the Perception of the Direction and Speed of Drifting Gratings [PDF]
, 1994 Three experiments were conducted to analyse the effect of contrast and adaptation state on the ability of human observers to discriminate the motion of drifting gratings.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

High-contrast L-band Integral Field Spectroscopy of HD 33632 Ab
The Astrophysical JournalWe present LBTI/ALES 3.07–4.08 μ m spectroscopic observations of HD 33632 Ab, a ∼53 M _Jup directly imaged companion to an F8 star. Spectroscopic measurements of HD 33632 Ab now span 1–4 μ m, and we perform the first spectroscopic analysis covering this ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.
