Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

open access: yesFEBS 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.

S-estimation and a robust conditional Akaike information criterion for linear mixed models. [PDF]

open access: yes
We study estimation and model selection on both the fixed and the random effects in the setting of linear mixed models using outlier robust S-estimators.

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS 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 ...

Behaviour of the additive finite locus model [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
A finite locus model to estimate additive variance and the breeding values was implemented using Gibbs sampling. Four different distributions for the size of the gene effects across the loci were considered: i) uniform with loci of different effects, ii)

Henderson's method approach to Kernel prediction in partially linear mixed models

open access: yesCumhuriyet Science Journal, 2020
In this article, we propose Kernel prediction in partially linear mixed models by using Henderson's method approach. We derive the Kernel estimator and the Kernel predictor via the mixed model equations (MMEs) of Henderson's that they give the best ...

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

"Prediction in Multivariate Mixed Linear Models" [PDF]

open access: yes
The multivariate mixed linear model or multivariate components of variance model with equal replications is considered.The paper addresses the problem of predicting the sum of the regression mean and the random e ects.When the feasible best linear ...

Intravitreal bevacizumab injection alone or combined with triamcinolone versus macular photocoagulation in bilateral diabetic macular edema; application of bivariate generalized linear mixed model with asymmetric random effects in a subgroup of a clinical trial

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmic & Vision Research, 2014
Purpose: To compare the efficacy of intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB) injection alone or with intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide (IVB/IVT) versus macular photocoagulation (MPC) in bilateral diabetic macular edema (DME).

Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Stem cell differentiation is complex and difficult to control experimentally. This review introduces suitable computational modelling approaches that can support stem cell research, from mechanistic ODE and abstract models to multiscale and deep learning methods.

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an
