Profiling and Characterization of Seed Storage Proteins From Borage (Borago officinalis L.) Pressed Cake as a Novel Plant‐Based Protein Source

Sustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 1, March 2026.
Borage (Borago officinalis L.) pressed cake, a by‐product of oil extraction, was profiled and characterized to evaluate its potential as a sustainable, plant‐based protein source. Protein fractionation revealed glutelin‐like proteins as predominant, accompanied by 2S albumin, 7S, and 11S globulin‐type proteins. Proteins exhibited high thermal stability

Primary osteoblast-like cells from patients with end-stage kidney disease reflect gene expression, proliferation, and mineralization characteristics ex vivo. [PDF]

, 2015
Osteocytes regulate bone turnover and mineralization in chronic kidney disease. As osteocytes are derived from osteoblasts, alterations in osteoblast function may regulate osteoblast maturation, osteocytic transition, bone turnover, and skeletal ...

Unexpected Role of Matrix Gla Protein in Osteoclasts: Inhibiting Osteoclast Differentiation and Bone Resorption

Molecular and Cellular Biology, 2019
Matrix Gla protein (MGP) is an extracellular protein responsible for inhibiting mineralization. MGP inhibits osteoblast mineralization and bone formation by regulating the deposition of bone matrix.

A Fibronectin (FN)‐Silk 3D Cell Culture Model as a Screening Tool for Repurposed Antifibrotic Drug Candidates for Endometriosis

Small, Volume 22, Issue 16, 17 March 2026.
This paper presents in vitro 3D cell culture models of fibrosis in endometriosis. Endometrial stromal and epithelial cells cultured in networks of silk protein functionalized with a fibronectin‐derived cell adhesion motif show physiological‐like fibrotic behavior.

Matrix gla protein in turbot (Scophthalmus maximus): gene expression analysis and identification of sites of protein accumulation [PDF]

, 2014
Matrix Gla protein (Mgp) is a secreted vitamin K-dependent extracellular matrix protein and a physiological inhibitor of calcification whose gene structure, amino acid sequence and tissue distribution have been conserved throughout evolution.

Label Noise in Pathological Segmentation Is Overlooked, Leading to Potential Overestimation of Artificial Intelligence

Cancer Science, Volume 117, Issue 3, Page 852-863, March 2026.
This study evaluated how artificial label noise affects cancer pathology segmentation models, demonstrating that boundary‐dependent noise leads to overestimation of performance metrics, while random noise mixtures further harm generalization. Our results highlight the need for standardized noise‐quantification and mitigation methods and for developing ...

Determination of the urinary aglycone metabolites of vitamin K by HPLC with redox-mode electrochemical detection [PDF]

, 2005
We describe a method for the determination of the two major urinary metabolites of vitamin K as the methyl esters of their agyclone structures, 2-methyl-3-(3-3-carboxymethylpropyl)-1,4-naphthoquinone (5C-side-chain metabolite) and 2-methyl-3-(5-carboxy-3-

The Mechanism of Coronary Artery Calcification in Centrally Obese Non-Diabetic Men: Study on The Interaction of Leptin, Free Leptin Index, Adiponectin, hs-C Reactive Protein, Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 and Matrix Gla Protein

, 2020
Background: The calcium in the artery was thought to be the result of the imbalance or dysregulation of the promoter and inhibitor cytokines influenced by various subclinical and clinical conditions.
