Mitochondrial ceramide-rich macrodomains functionalize Bax upon irradiation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
BACKGROUND:Evidence indicates that Bax functions as a "lipidic" pore to regulate mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization (MOMP), the apoptosis commitment step, through unknown membrane elements.

ITM2B Truncation Promotes Migrasome Formation to Accelerate Renal Cell Carcinoma Growth

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 4, 19 January 2026.
This study identifies truncated ITM2B as a regulator of migrasome formation in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cells. The ITM2B truncation not only facilitates migrasome formation by recruiting TSPAN4, but also sorts active caspase‐7 into migrasomes. The internalization of active caspase‐7‐enriched migrasomes by macrophages stimulates IL‐6 secretion to ...

Macrodomain catalytic activity modulates Chikungunya virus dissemination and transmission potential in Aedes mosquitoes

open access: yes
Viral macrodomains are promising antiviral targets that counteract host ADP-ribosylation-mediated antiviral responses in mammals. However, their role in dual-host viruses within the mosquito vector remains largely unknown.

Ferroelectricity restoration via thermally driven recovery of surface damage layers in BiFeO3‐based lead‐free ceramics

open access: yesJournal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 109, Issue 1, January 2026.
In BiFeO3‐based lead‐free ceramics, ferroelectric polarization is suppressed by a polishing‐induced surface damage layer through the inhibition of Bi3⁺ off‐centering and nanoscale domain formation. Upon thermal annealing, the damaged layer is relaxed, Bi3⁺ displacement is restored, and nanoscale domains are reactivated, resulting in the recovery of the

Evaluation of Midwife‐Led Colposcopy for Female Genital Schistosomiasis Screening at Primary Level of Care in Rural Madagascar: A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesTropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 31, Issue 1, Page 49-57, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Female genital schistosomiasis is a condition with a complex diagnosis and severe consequences such as infertility. In the absence of a reliable biomarker, in endemic settings the World Health Organization recommends colposcopy as a diagnostic tool for the detection of female genital schistosomiasis lesions.

Highly Virulent Getah Virus Subgroup GIII‐c Emerging in Pigs in China

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Getah virus (GETV) is an emerging mosquito‐borne zoonotic alphavirus that poses a threat to multiple animal species, particularly pigs, and carries significant public health implications. Nevertheless, the molecular evolution and pathogenicity of circulating GETV strains in China remain incompletely defined.

A brief timeline of the discovery of macrodomain functions.

open access: yes, 2018
Significant advances in the macrodomain field starting from the initial identification of “X-domains” in coronaviruses by Lee et al. in 1991 [4] to the present. Findings are listed in bold followed by relevant citations.

Unscreened Polaron Ordering Against High Electron Density on Mechanically Cleaved Surfaces of WO3 (001) Films

open access: yesSmall, Volume 21, Issue 39, October 2, 2025.
Unscreened high‐density polarons are discovered in a metallic WO3 (001) 2DEG, stabilized by surface oxygen vacancies and c(2 × 2) reconstruction. ARPES and STM/STS reveal polaron formation and ordering, supported by first‐principles calculations. This work opens new avenues for exploring collective polaron phenomena, including bipolaron interactions ...

Calcium regulation of muscle spindle mechanosensory afferent function

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, Volume 110, Issue 10, Page 1457-1472, October 1, 2025.
Abstract Extracellular calcium is crucial for the normal function of muscle spindle sensory afferents. They express multiple calcium buffering proteins. Extracellular calcium is essential for recycling of synaptic‐like vesicles (SLVs) in the terminals and for the stretch‐evoked inward calcium current of the receptor potential.
