Ionic liquids as solvents for making composite materials from cellulose; pp. 255–266 [PDF]
Proceedings of the Estonian Academy of Sciences, 2016 Some imidazolium-based ionic liquids (ILs) are able to dissolve microcrystalline cellulose to form 10 wt% solutions. This allows easy production of cellulose composite materials by mixing the respective solutions.

Organoids in pediatric cancer research
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.

Enhanced carbon tolerance of Ir alloyed Ni-Based metal for methane partial oxidation
Heliyon, 2018 Carbon plugging of active catalytic sites significantly degrades the performance of the hydrocarbon reformers. In this study, we show that small amount of Ir alloyed to Ni/CeO2 nanoparticle exhibit promising improvements to the carbon tolerance ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Viruses infect all living organisms and have been responsible for major epidemics and pandemics. Their ongoing evolutionary battle with host defenses creates a constant need for improved tools to study viral behavior. Advancing methods to probe viral attachment, fusion, and genome release deepen our understanding of how infections begin and support the

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Septin 9 polybasic domains couple phosphoinositide‐rich membrane binding to centrosome positioning, Golgi organization, and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity. Their loss disrupts this axis, causing centrosome mispositioning, Golgi fragmentation, reduced microtubule acetylation, and polarity inversion via upregulation of the ...
