Blue-enriched office light competes with natural light as a zeitgeber

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Work, Environment & Health, 2011
OBJECTIVES: Circadian regulation of human physiology and behavior (eg, body temperature or sleep-timing), depends on the “zeitgeber” light that synchronizes them to the 24-hour day.

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

THE STUDY OF LIGHT IN A KINDERGARTEN CLASSROOM

open access: yesJournal of Industrial Design and Engineering Graphics, 2021
Natural light is essential in the design of a kindergarten class, but it must also be accompanied by an an artificial lighting system. Therefore using DiaLUX Evo, a kindergarten class was modeled with a specific zoning, where different types of light ...

Efficient Daylighting: The Importance of Glazing Transmittance and Room Surface Reflectance

open access: yesBuildings
This study quantitatively analyzes the influence of the spectral characteristics, reflectance or transmittance, of different materials on the lighting of an interior space with natural and artificial light. For this purpose, a three-dimensional simulated

Epigenetic blind spots – the role of DNA methylation dynamics in stem cell‐based models of embryogenesis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

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 ...

Enraizamento in vitro de mirtilo em condições fotoautotróficas In vitro rooting of blueberry under photoautotrophic conditions

open access: yesCiência Rural, 2009
O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a eficiência do enraizamento fotoautotrófico de mirtilo (Vaccinium ashei Reade), cultivar 'Delite', comparando o efeito da luz natural (casa de vegetação) e da luz artificial (sala de crescimento) durante duas épocas

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
