Porosity Governs Normal Stresses in Polymer Gels [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2016 When sheared, most elastic solids such as metals, rubbers and polymer hydrogels dilate in the direction perpendicular to the shear plane. This well-known behaviour known as the Poynting effect is characterized by a positive normal stress. Surprisingly, biopolymer gels made of fibrous proteins such as fibrin and collagen, as well as many biological ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Oxidative Stress in Normal‐Weight Obese Syndrome [PDF]
Obesity, 2010 The normal‐weight obese (NWO) syndrome was identified in women whose body weight (BW) and BMI are normal but whose fat mass (FM) is >30%. In these subjects, an early inflammatory status has been demonstrated. The aim was to verify whether oxidative stress occurs in NWO. Sixty age‐matched white Italian women were studied and subdivided as follows: 20

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Comparative Plastomes and Phylogenetic Analysis of Cleistogenes and Closely Related Genera (Poaceae)
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Cleistogenes (Orininae, Cynodonteae, Chloridoideae, Poaceae) is an ecologically important genus. The phylogenetic placement of Cleistogenes and phylogenetic relationships among Cleistogenes taxa remain controversial for a long time. To resolve the intra-

Parametric Stress-Testing in Non-Normal Markets via Entropy Pooling
, 2014 A novel approach for stress-testing (portfolios of) financial assets is presented. The technique extends the parametric Entropy Pooling approach to skewed and thick-tailed markets.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Bioinformatics in Plant Breeding and Research on Disease Resistance
Plants, 2022 In the context of plant breeding, bioinformatics can empower genetic and genomic selection to determine the optimal combination of genotypes that will produce a desired phenotype and help expedite the isolation of these new varieties.
