Applications of Biomaterials in Separators for Secondary Batteries

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
In this review, biomaterial‐based separators are reviewed as sustainable alternatives to conventional polyolefin‐based separators. For 12 different natural polymers, spanning from Protista, Plantae, and Animalia, viable strategies for synthesizing biomass‐based separators are described.

MurNAc‐Based Electrophilic Inhibitors of O‐Acetylpeptidoglycan Esterase (Ape): Design, Synthesis, and Kinetic Evaluation

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
A series of N‐acetylmuramic acid (MurNAc)‐based electrophilic inhibitors targeting Ape esterase was synthesized. Their inhibitory potency ranged from micromolar to submillimolar. The study probed binding contributions of stem peptide extension, replacing the anomeric methyl group with a benzyl, and α‐fluorination of the carbonyl to enhance ...

Urogenital Infection Risk Associated With SGLT2 Inhibitors Versus DPP‐4 Inhibitors in Type 2 Diabetes and Chronic Kidney Disease: A Nationwide Target Trial Emulation

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Although sodium‐glucose cotransporter‐2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are recommended for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD), concerns regarding urogenital infections persist. Therefore, we evaluated the risk of urinary tract infection (UTI) and genital tract infection (GTI) after SGLT2i initiation in this population ...

Advancing Pregnancy and Pediatric Science through the NIH Transporter Elucidation Network

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Human gestation is characterized by dynamic changes in maternal physiology and maturation of tissue functions before and after birth. The fetus and neonate are highly dependent upon transfer of maternal nutrients via the placenta and lactating mammary gland, which frequently involve selective membrane transporter proteins.

A shining starlet: Nematostella vectensis as a model for developmental, regenerative, and comparative biology

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract The sea anemone, Nematostella vectensis, has been used as a model organism in developmental biology studies for many years. This estuarine species has the notable capacity to regenerate its full body plan from small pieces throughout life. Nematostella have been described as having a great degree of cellular plasticity.

Vaginal host–microbe signatures linked to placental outcomes in mares

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Ascending placentitis is a leading cause of late‐term pregnancy loss in mares. Although pathogens are presumed to ascend from the caudal reproductive tract, the association between the vaginal microbiome and placentitis has not been systematically examined.
