The Mitochondrial Peptidase Pitrilysin Degrades Islet Amyloid Polypeptide in Beta-Cells. [PDF]
Amyloid formation and mitochondrial dysfunction are characteristics of type 2 diabetes. The major peptide constituent of the amyloid deposits in type 2 diabetes is islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP).

A multifunctional SnSe2@MXene heterostructure coated on a separator serves as a catalytic interlayer in Li‐S batteries. This design synergistically integrates the strong polysulfide adsorption and catalytic activity of SnSe2 with the high electrical conductivity of the MXene matrix, effectively suppressing the shuttle effect and enabling long‐term ...

Migrant Top Management Team and Corporate Innovation: Evidence From China
ABSTRACT This study explores the association between top management teams (TMT) comprised of migrant managers (migrant TMT) and corporate innovation. Using hand‐collected data for a sample of Chinese A‐share listed firms spanning the period 2008–2020, we find a positive and significant association between a migrant TMT and corporate innovation.

Abstract The etiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD) remains under active debate. In this perspective, we explore the hypothesis that a primarily infection‐caused chronic dysregulation and weakening of human innate immunity via the underexpression, degradation, and inactivation of innate immune proteins necessary for direct antimicrobial effects and ...
