Nutrient/TOR signaling controls adipose mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) to regulate organismal growth in Drosophila

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Animals must match their growth rate to available nutrients. We show that in Drosophila larvae, the nutrient‐sensing TOR kinase controls growth by regulating levels of TFAM, a key regulator of mitochondrial function, in the adipose tissue. When nutrients are abundant, high TOR activity suppresses TFAM, lowering mitochondrial bioenergetic activity and ...

Adjusted empirical likelihood estimation of the youden index and associated threshold for the bigamma model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The Youden index is a widely used measure in the framework of medical diagnostic, where the effectiveness of a biomarker (screening marker or predictor) for classifying a disease status is studied.

Some New Results Related to the Likelihood Ratio and the Laplace Transform Ordering

open access: yesMathematics
The purpose of this paper is twofold. First, we aim to study some new properties and relations for the likelihood ratio order. In particular, we present new integral inequalities involving the ratio of two probability density functions and the ratio of ...

Peripheral lysosomes recruit PLEKHG3 to focal adhesions and restrain protrusion dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proximity‐dependent labeling at the LAMTOR complex revealed the Rho GEF PLEKHG3 as a lysosome‐proximal protein directing the study toward the influence of lysosome positioning on actin dynamics and cell motility. We show that PLEKHG3 colocalizes with lysosomes at focal adhesion sites and observe that forced peripheral dispersion of lysosomes hinders ...

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Simultaneous Testing of Mean and Variance Structures in Nonlinear Time Series Models [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper proposes a nonparametric simultaneous test for parametric specification of the conditional mean and variance functions in a time series regression model. The test is based on an empirical likelihood (EL) statistic that measures the goodness of

Quadratic Artificial Likelihood Functions Using Estimating Functions

open access: yes
A vector-valued estimating function, such as the quasi-score, is typically not the gradient of any objective function. Consequently, an analogue of the likelihood function cannot be unambiguously defined by integrating the estimating function. This paper
