Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

open access: yesFEBS 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 ...

Assessing Atopic Dermatitis Control in Chinese Patients: Validation of the Chinese Version of Recap of Atopic Eczema Questionnaire (RECAP) and an Investigation into Its Interpretability

open access: yesActa Dermato-Venereologica
The lack of a validated Chinese version of the Recap of Atopic Eczema questionnaire (RECAP) questionnaire limits its applicability. This prospective study, conducted at a Chinese tertiary hospital between April and November 2024, aimed to evaluate ...

Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry

open access: yesFEBS 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

Rab14 regulates the transport of human papillomavirus to the trans‐Golgi network for infectious cell entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the small GTPase Rab14 is necessary for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and plays an essential role in the transport of virions to the trans‐Golgi network (TGN). HPV in the early endosome (EE), which harbors GTP‐bound Rab14, is transported to the TGN through the switch of Rab14 from its GTP‐bound to GDP‐bound form.

On the extension property of measurable spaces [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the American Mathematical Society, 1984
We prove that a metrizable measurable space has the extension property if and only if it is isomorphic to a Borel subset of the real line. It follows, in particular, that (

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.

Rethinking measurement of health outcomes in Long COVID: complexities, challenges and considerations

open access: yesHealth and Quality of Life Outcomes
The reality of Long COVID emerged soon after the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. More than five years later, thousands of articles have been published with multiple case definitions, heterogenous populations, and numerous measurement instruments ...

Validation of the Atopic Dermatitis Control Tool (ADCT) and a Comparison with the Recap of Atopic Eczema Questionnaire (RECAP)

open access: yesActa Dermato-Venereologica
The Atopic Dermatitis Control Tool (ADCT) has not been validated in the Dutch population, and comparisons with the Recap of atopic eczema (RECAP) questionnaire are still lacking.
