Advanced Biology, EarlyView.A detailed workflow for recombinant GALC production and characterization is presented to support enzyme replacement therapy for Krabbe disease. In vitro assays demonstrate that physiological GALC doses restore enzymatic activity and autophagic flux without affecting cell viability, whereas higher doses impair autophagy and reduce viability.

Practical aspects of palliative care [PDF]
, 2013 Palliative Care is a relatively young medical specialty. In fact, it was only in 1987 that it was recognised as such in UK. The aim of this contribution is to highlight some important but practical points in the practice of palliative care, especially

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study explores a process chain to produce dispersoid‐strengthened CuCr1Zr for applications requiring high strength and conductivity. Using gas‐atomized powder and copper‐plated alumina nanoparticles, additive manufacturing is performed via powder bed based additive manufacturing with green and red lasers, followed by heat treatment.

Adjustable Plasmonic Core–Shell Nanoparticles for Personalized Color Vision Correction
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study introduces a personalized solution for correcting color vision deficiency (CVD) by embedding tunable core‐shell metal nanoparticles—a common nanotechnology—into contact lenses. By customizing the nanoparticles’ optical properties to filter specific wavelengths, these lenses address individual visual impairments, enhancing color ...
