Peptide‐based ligand antagonists block a Vibrio cholerae adhesin

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The structure of a peptide‐binding domain of the Vibrio cholerae adhesin FrhA was solved by X‐ray crystallography, revealing how the inhibitory peptide AGYTD binds tightly at its Ca2+‐coordinated pocket. Structure‐guided design incorporating D‐amino acids enhanced binding affinity, providing a foundation for developing anti‐adhesion therapeutics ...

Assessing the long-term economic impact of wheezing episodes after severe RSV disease in children from Argentina: a cost of illness analysis

BMJ Public Health
Introduction There is lack of available data on the economic burden of wheezing episodes after severe respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection. This study aimed to assess the cost incurred for wheezing episodes after a severe RSV infection in children

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

Liquid biopsy epigenetics: establishing a molecular profile based on cell‐free DNA

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) fragments in plasma from cancer patients carry epigenetic signatures reflecting their cells of origin. These epigenetic features include DNA methylation, nucleosome modifications, and variations in fragmentation. This review describes the biological properties of each feature and explores optimal strategies for harnessing cfDNA ...

The long road to protect infants against severe RSV lower respiratory tract illness [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

F1000Research, 2019
Severe respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) lower respiratory tract illness (LRTI) in infants has proven challenging to prevent. In the last 50 years, conceptually different approaches failed to evolve into viable preventive alternatives for routine use ...

RaMBat: Accurate identification of medulloblastoma subtypes from diverse data sources with severe batch effects

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
To integrate multiple transcriptomics data with severe batch effects for identifying MB subtypes, we developed a novel and accurate computational method named RaMBat, which leveraged subtype‐specific gene expression ranking information instead of absolute gene expression levels to address batch effects of diverse data sources.

Impact of esophageal mucosal permeability markers on provocation‐induced esophageal reflexes in high‐risk infants

Physiological Reports, 2022
Esophageal distal baseline impedance (DBI) is an indicator of mucosal integrity; lower values suggest increased permeability. Aims were to characterize the (1) effect of DBI category (2000 Ω) on sensory‐motor characteristics of mid‐esophageal provocation‐

Diabetes‐induced vascular calcification is associated with low pyrophosphate and its oral supplementation prevents calcification in diabetic mice

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Induction of diabetes in three different mouse strains uniformly resulted in an increase in TNAP activity and a reduction in pyrophosphate (PPi) in the circulation. Inhibition of TNAP restored plasma PPi. Diabetes‐induced calcification in the media layer of the aorta was detected only in the Abcc6−/− strain, which is predisposed to ectopic ...

Bridge-Enhanced ACL Repair: Novel approach and emerging opportunities in anterior cruciate ligament injury management - literature review

Quality in Sport
Anterior cruciate ligament injury is one of the most common trauma in sport. It leads to long-term exclusion from physical activity, poor quality of life and may result in posttraumatic osteoarthritis.
