Autophagy and mitophagy in pancreatic β‐cell homeostasis and their involvement in diabetes pathophysiology

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review focuses on the role of autophagy and mitophagy in maintaining pancreatic β‐cell function and homeostasis. We discuss how genetic defects affecting these pathways contribute to the development of type 1, type 2, monogenic, and gestational diabetes. We further explore their potential as therapeutic targets. Created in BioRender.

Specification of BMP signaling [PDF]

, 2019
Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMPs) together with the Growth and Differentiation Factors (GDFs) form the largest subgroup of the Transforming Growth Factor (TGF)β family and represent secreted growth factors, which play an essential role in many aspects ...

Golgi enzymes are retrieved from the plasma membrane to the trans‐Golgi network

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Golgi enzymes are traditionally considered resident proteins retained within the Golgi apparatus. Here, we demonstrate that a subset transiently reaches the cell surface and is subsequently retrieved to the trans‐Golgi network via retrograde transport. Using a nanobody‐based toolkit, we uncover a dynamic trafficking cycle of several Golgi enzymes.

Fly Cryptochrome and the Visual System [PDF]

, 2013
Cryptochromes are flavoproteins, structurally and evolutionarily related to photolyases, involved in development, magnetoreception and temporal organization of a variety of organisms.

Hormonal Regulation in Shade Avoidance

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
At high vegetation density, shade-intolerant plants sense a reduction in the red (660 nm) to far-red (730 nm) light ratio (R/FR) in addition to a general reduction in light intensity.

Partial depletion of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 decreases subcutaneous fat cell hypertrophy and liver cholesterol in high‐fat‐fed female mice

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

Augmenting endogenous wnt signaling improves skin wound healing [PDF]

, 2013
Wnt signaling is required for both the development and homeostasis of the skin, yet its contribution to skin wound repair remains controversial. By employing Axin2(LacZ/+) reporter mice we evaluated the spatial and temporal distribution patterns of Wnt ...

Emerging experimental and computational methods for studying redox‐regulated structural transitions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Redox reactions can reshape proteins and alter how they behave in cells, with important consequences for health and disease. This review explores emerging experimental and computational approaches for discovering these redox‐sensitive protein switches, revealing their structural effects, and predicting their behavior, opening new opportunities to ...

Effects of light intensity on growth and leaf functional trait plasticity of Paris polyphylla var. yunnanensis

Plant Signaling & Behavior
To elucidate the light adaptation mechanism and optimal cultivation light regime for Paris polyphylla var. yunnanensis, a two-year continuous field positioning trial was conducted with five light gradients (20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100% natural light, PAR

Regulatory mechanism of a light-dependent protochlorophyllide oxidoreductase in chlorophyll biosynthesis and environmental adaptation

Technology in Agronomy
Chlorophyll is a vital component of photosynthesis and must be produced throughout the plant life cycle. Light-dependent protochlorophyllide oxidoreductase (LPOR) is a pivotal enzyme in the chlorophyll biosynthesis pathway, catalyzing the conversion of ...
