FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Low‐density lipoprotein receptor‐related protein 6 (LRP6) is a key receptor for the Wnt antagonist Dickkopf1 (DKK1). DKK1 protein expression is induced in a bleomycin (BLM)‐induced lung injury model. We show that DKK1 induces proinflammatory and profibrotic genes in lung fibroblasts.

Immunoregulatory mechanisms of the arachidonic acid pathway in cancer
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The central role of the arachidonic acid (AA) pathway in anticancer immunity. Enzymes and metabolites of the AA pathway can play both immunosuppressive and immunostimulatory roles in the tumor microenvironment. Therefore, their tailored targeting could be beneficial as a standalone therapy or in combination with current cancer immunotherapy.

Unsupervised HDR Image and Video Tone Mapping via Contrastive Learning [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Capturing high dynamic range (HDR) images (videos) is attractive because it can reveal the details in both dark and bright regions. Since the mainstream screens only support low dynamic range (LDR) content, tone mapping algorithm is required to compress the dynamic range of HDR images (videos).

Taurine promotes glucagon‐like peptide‐1 secretion in enteroendocrine L cells
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Taurine, a sulfur‐containing amino acid, is likely taken up by enteroendocrine L cells via the taurine transporter. This process increases the levels of cytosolic ATP. The increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentrations and glucagon‐like peptide‐1 secretion through membrane depolarization is caused by the closure of ATP‐sensitive potassium channels ...

High tone lowering and raising in Tsua [PDF]
, 2019 The Tsua language is an Eastern Kalahari Khoe language of Botswana (Chebanne 2014). Tsua tone production displays complex Fundamental Frequency (F0) trajectories. Lexical data show that this language has three tone levels: High (H), Mid (M), and Low (L),

Making tau amyloid models in vitro: a crucial and underestimated challenge
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This review highlights the challenges of producing in vitro amyloid assemblies of the tau protein. We review how accurately the existing protocols mimic tau deposits found in the brain of patients affected with tauopathies. We discuss the important properties that should be considered when forming amyloids and the benchmarks that should be used to ...

Perceptual Experience Analysis for Tone-mapped HDR Videos based on EEG and Peripheral Physiological Signals [PDF]
S.-E. Moon and J.-S. Lee, "Perceptual Experience Analysis for
Tone-mapped HDR Videos Based on EEG and Peripheral Physiological Signals," in
IEEE Transactions on Autonomous Mental Development, vol. 7, no. 3, pp.
236-247, Sept. 2015, 2018 High dynamic range (HDR) imaging has been attracting much attention as a technology that can provide immersive experience. Its ultimate goal is to provide better quality of experience (QoE) via enhanced contrast. In this paper, we analyze perceptual experience of tone-mapped HDR videos both explicitly by conducting a subjective questionnaire assessment
