Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Lightness and perceptual transparency
, 2006 To estimate intrinsic descriptors of objects in the environment, effective biological vision systems must ‘discount’ extrinsic image properties that arise from changes in viewing conditions.

Colour appearance is affected not only by perceptual but also by linguistic context [PDF]
, 2010 Terminology is a crucial problem in science, since quite often the terms used to denote theoretical concepts are directly taken from the vocabulary of common words, which usually have multiple meanings.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Differences in lightness in achromatic transparency
, 1999 It is presently unresolved whether lightness or differences in lightness are appropriate independent variables for models of perceived achromatic transparency.

Chemical Characteristics, and Effect of Inulin Extracted from Artichoke (Cynara scolymus L.) Root on Biochemical Properties of Synbiotic Yogurt at the End of Fermentation [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Chemistry & Chemical Engineering, 2018 The aim of this study was to produce synbiotic yogurt using different inulin levels (0, 1 and 2%) and probiotic bacteria. Inulin in two forms commercial and extracted from artichoke root was prepared, and chemical and sensory evaluation were performed ...

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Evaluating Test Image Quality as a Function of illumation [PDF]
Engineering and Technology Journal, 2010 The optical imaging systems, do not give a perfect and ideal image. Butmostly give images with limited resolutions i.e. give images with blur edges. Thisblurring attributed to two main reasons.
