Host PIK3C3 promotes Shigella flexneri spread from cell to cell through vacuole formation.
Shigella flexneri is a human intracellular pathogen responsible for bacillary dysentery (bloody diarrhea). S. flexneri invades colonic epithelial cells and spreads from cell to cell, leading to massive epithelial cell fenestration, a critical determinant

Intraepithelial neutrophils in mammary, urinary and gall bladder infections
Neutrophil mobilization is a crucial response to protect the host against invading microorganisms. Neutrophil recruitment and removal have to be tightly regulated to prevent uncontrolled inflammation and excessive release of their toxic content causing ...

Transient domain formation in membrane-bound organelles undergoing maturation
The membrane components of cellular organelles have been shown to segregate into domains as the result of biochemical maturation. We propose that the dynamical competition between maturation and lateral segregation of membrane components regulates domain

Migrasomes, Matrix‐Bound Nanovesicles, and More: Messengers in the Matrix
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) and particles (EPs) are diverse micro‐ and nanoparticles that circulate in bodily fluids and can attach to, or be deposited onto, the extracellular matrix (ECM) and other surfaces. To date, the nomenclature and classification of matrix‐bound or matrix‐associated EVs and EPs (MEVPs) have been unclear, largely due to

Evidence That Cytochrome \u3cem\u3eb\u3csub\u3e5\u3c/sub\u3e\u3c/em\u3e Acts as a Redox Donor in CYP17A1 Mediated Androgen Synthesis [PDF]
Cytochrome P450 17A1 (CYP17A1) is an important drug target for castration resistant prostate cancer. It is a bi-functional enzyme, catalyzing production of glucocorticoid precursors by hydroxylation of pregnene-nucleus, and androgen biosynthesis by a ...

Open and cut: allosteric motion and membrane fission by dynamin superfamily proteins. [PDF]
Cells have evolved diverse protein-based machinery to reshape, cut, or fuse their membrane-delimited compartments. Dynamin superfamily proteins are principal components of this machinery and use their ability to hydrolyze GTP and to polymerize into ...

We systematically summarize how each scale dictates fundamental choices in design feature, manufacturing technology, driving mechanism, and control strategy, which are inherently governed by scale‐dominated physical principles. Furthermore, the application of scale‐determined operation modes of microrobots across different stages of medical ...

Thermal degradation mechanism and kinetic triplets of Nafion N115 were elucidated via TGA, kinetic compensation analysis, Sestak–Berggren reconstruction, quantum calculations, and GC–MS. A diffusion‐controlled model governs active pyrolysis, although persistent perfluorinated products were identified, highlighting environmental implications and ...

Undulated cylinders of charged diblock copolymers
We study the cylinder to sphere morphological transition of diblock copolymers in aqueous solution with a hydrophobic block and a charged block. We find a metastable undulated cylinder configuration for a range of charge and salt concentrations which ...
