Castles in the Air: Sectarian Puritanism, the Revolutionary Caribbean and the Forgotten Colony of New Warwick, Trinidad

History, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines an overlooked attempt to colonize the island of Trinidad during the English Revolution of the 1640s. This project was engineered by a consortium of radical puritans, seeking to create a protected enclave in the New World for separatists, anabaptists and other sectaries.

Novel Bispecific Engagers Targeting the CεmX Domain of mIgE‐Expressing Cells

Allergy, EarlyView.
We developed bispecific TCE & NKCE targeting the CεmX domain of mIgE to eliminate IgE‐producing cells. Both constructs demonstrated potent, specific, dose‐dependent cytotoxicity and selective immune activation in vitro. These results highlight their promise as off‐the‐shelf, potentially curative therapeutics for IgE‐associated allergic diseases ...

Brain calcification‐associated JAM2 pathogenic mutations impair JAM2–JAM3 tight junction structure and the blood–brain barrier integrity

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Pathogenic JAM2 mutations disrupt the JAM2–JAM3 heterodimer structure and tight junction integrity, leading to blood–brain barrier breakdown. Consequently, Jam2‐deficient mice develop prominent midbrain calcification and significant motor impairments, identifying the JAM2–JAM3 interaction as a vital target for primary brain calcification therapeutics ...

A quad‐cistronic fluorescent biosensor system for real‐time detection of subcellular Ca2+ signals

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose The calcium ion (Ca2+) is a versatile cellular messenger regulating a variety of biological processes. Compounds modulating subcellular Ca2+ signals hold substantial pharmacological potential. Advances in fluorescent biosensors have revolutionised Ca2+ imaging.

Selective modulation of NaV channel gating counteracts aberrant hyperexcitability and rescues motor function and survival in a model of spinal muscular atrophy

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a motor neuron disease caused by SMN1 gene loss, leading to reduced survival motor neuron (SMN) protein and progressive motor neuron degeneration. Although SMN‐restoring therapies improve outcomes, residual disease burden and non‐curative efficacy underscore the need for complementary treatments ...

Progressively Projected Newton's Method

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Newton's Method is widely used to find the solution of complex non‐linear simulation problems. To guarantee a descent direction, it is common practice to clamp the negative eigenvalues of each element Hessian prior to assembly—a strategy known as Projected Newton (PN)—but this perturbation often hinders convergence.

Defining the role of αC helix interactions in the activation of the integrin αI domain

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The α2I domain of the α2β1 integrin contains a distinctive αC helix and a conserved Arg288‐Glu318 ion pair that stabilizes the closed state of the domain. Disruption of this ion pair in the activated α2I variant unwinds the αC helix, which allows interaction with additional collagen‐binding sites increasing collagen binding.
