Development and characterization of photoprotective formulations containing keratin particles

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2019
This work deals with development and evaluation of MFQ protective formulation, which contains two organic filters, namely: octyl-p-methoxycinnamate (OMC) and benzophenone-3 (BP-3); a photostabilizing agent called ethylhexylmethoxycrylene (EHMCR) and ...

Single‐Cell and Spatial Transcriptomic Profiling of Penile Squamous Cell Carcinoma Reveals Dynamics of Tumor Differentiation and Immune Microenvironment

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uses single‐nucleus RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics to investigate penile squamous cell carcinoma (PSCC). It reveals that PSCC tumor cells mimic normal penile epithelium differentiation, independent of HPV status. The Tum_1 subtype shows basal stem‐like characteristics and promotes invasiveness. HPV‐positive basal stem‐like tumors

AIF1+CSF1R+ MSCs, induced by TNF‐α, act to generate an inflammatory microenvironment and promote hepatocarcinogenesis

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Mesenchymal stem cells subset, educated by TNF‐α, are involved to generate inflammatory microenvironment and promote hepatocarcinogenesis Abstract Background and Aims Increasing evidence suggests that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) home to injured local tissues and the tumor microenvironment in the liver.

Extraction of Keratin from Chicken Feathers and its Application in the Treatment of Contaminated Water: an Eco-Friendly Approach

open access: yesBrazilian Archives of Biology and Technology
Chicken feathers that make up 4-6% of total weight of chicken are most influential waste by-product from poultry farm and slaughter. Annual worldwide generation of several tons of feather biomass raise solid waste management concerns.

A Novel OsMPK6‐OsMADS47‐PPKL1/3 Module Controls Grain Shape and Yield in Rice

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
OsMADS47 is identified as a key regulator governing rice grain morphology. Phosphorylation‐dependent regulation of its activity directs the development of slender versus round grains, modulating both yield and appearance. This mechanism bridges cellular signaling with transcriptional regulation, establishing a molecular framework for grain optimization.

Keratin-based Nanofibres [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom" ? this was the title of the lecture Prof. Richard Feynman delivered at California Institute of Technology on December 29, 1959 at the American Physical Society meeting. He considered the possibility to manipulate matter on an atomic scale.

Local Visible‐Photocatalytic Production of Hydrogen and Warm Heat for Combination Treatment of Pressure Ulcer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel concept of visible‐photocatalytic hydrogen/warm heat production is proposed for combination treatment of pressure ulcer (PU), and develop a new kind of palladium nanodots‐deposited hydrogen‐doped titanium dioxide nanorods encapsulating hydorgel dressing to receive a high outcome of PU treatment by hydrogen/warm heat synergistically improving ...

Selective laser sintering responses of keratin-based bio-polymer composites

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2019
Keratin-based materials have unique biological and mechanical attributes due to the protein's molecular structure and organisation. The current study evaluates the possible consolidation of keratin powders by selective laser sintering (SLS), a key ...

The New Keratin Nomenclature [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 2006
When the first nomenclature of the keratin protein family was published over 20 years ago, only 19 keratins were thought to exist. Sequencing of the human genome has now revealed that there are 54 keratin genes. As a consequence, the nomenclature needed revision to apply a logical numbering system that includes the more recently identified keratins of ...

Acidosis Forces Fatty Acid Uptake and Metabolism in Cancer Cells Regardless of Genotype

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that biological acidosis, commonly observed in tumors and ischemic conditions, actively promotes the protonation of fatty acids, thereby facilitating the uptake of their neutral forms. Consequently, the preference for lipid metabolism in acid‐exposed cells does not arise from genetic reprogramming that prioritizes lipids as the ...
