Poverty and Household Size [PDF]

The Economic Journal, 1995
The widely held view that larger families tend to be poorer in developing countries has influenced research and policy. The scope for size economies in consumption cautions against this view. The authors find that the correlation between poverty and size vanishes in Pakistan when the size elasticity of the cost of living is about 0-6. This turns out to

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Distinctive Gene Expression Profiles and Biological Responses of Skin Fibroblasts to Nicotinamide Mononucleotide: Implications for Longevity Effects on Skin

Biomedicines
Background/Objectives: Enhancement of cellular NAD+ mediated by NMN has emerged as a pivotal strategy in modulating the aging process. This study aimed to systematically investigate the anti-aging effects of NMN on human skin fibroblasts, focusing on how

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Image based quantification method reveals differential patterns of lip desquamation associated with age and sex

Scientific Reports
The rough surface of lip skin is a dermatological and aesthetic issue that affects facial appearance. While several studies have addressed this common problem, none of them have exclusively utilized image analysis techniques.
