Exoplanets in the Antarctic Sky. V. The Second Data Release of AST3-II/CHESPA and Newly Found Variables within the Southern Continuous Viewing Zone of TESS

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Located at Dome A, the highest point on the Antarctic plateau, China’s Kunlun station is a premier ground-based photometric observatory. Its cold, dry, and stable atmosphere allows continuous observation for over 40 days during polar winter, ideal for ...

Early‐life high‐fat diet exposure increases Achilles tendon stiffness and induces transcriptomic alterations

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Early‐life exposure to a high‐fat diet altered intact Achilles tendons in rat offspring, making them thinner, stiffer, and molecularly distinct even without injury. These findings suggest that developmental high‐fat diet exposure may impair tendon quality and increase susceptibility to mechanical overload or tendon injury later in life.

CCD photometry of YY Orionis stars

, 1998
Photometric UBVRI observations of the YY Orionis stars YY Ori, SY Ori, CE Ori, NS Ori and XX Ori are presented. The luminosity of all stars is variable on a timescale of a few days.

Lipopolysaccharide uptake is augmented in lipopolysaccharide‐tolerant mouse macrophage‐like cells via increased CD14 expression

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In normal (nontolerant) cells, CD14 is crucial for both LPS uptake and LPS signaling. In LPS‐tolerant cells, in which LPS‐induced TNF‐α and IFN‐β production is suppressed, there is a dramatic increase in surface CD14 expression. The overexpressed CD14 in LPS‐tolerant cells is responsible for the enhanced LPS uptake without inducing pro‐inflammatory ...

Cyclic azapeptide CD36 ligand attenuates cardiac injury and reduces long‐chain fatty acid accumulation after myocardial ischemia–reperfusion in mice

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In a murine model of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion (MI/R), the CD36 azapeptide ligand MPE‐298 reduces cardiac injury and transiently lowers left ventricular long‐chain fatty acids (LCFAs) accumulation 3 h after reperfusion, accompanied by a decrease of oxidative stress and inflammation‐associated genes' expression in the heart and adipose tissue.

Variable stars in the field of intermediate-age open cluster NGC 559

, 2020
This work presents the first long-term photometric variability survey of the intermediate-age open cluster NGC 559. Time series V-band photometric observations on 40 nights taken over more than 3 yr with three different telescopes are analysed to search ...

Time-series Photometric Detection and Physical Characterization of Variable Stars in Four Intermediate- to Old-age Galactic Open Clusters

The Astronomical Journal
We present a ground-based time-series photometric study of stellar variability in four intermediate- to old-age open clusters—NGC 2192, NGC 2266, NGC 2509, and IC 1369—based on high-cadence Cousins R -band observations obtained with the 0.6 m VASISTHA ...

Directed evolution of enzymes at the crossroads of tradition and innovation

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
An iterative cycle of data‐driven enzyme optimization comprising four stages: genetic diversification of a template enzyme, expression of protein variants, high‐throughput evaluation, and machine‐learning‐guided redesign of the next variant library.

Molecular characterization of covRS mutations in M1UK Streptococcus pyogenes

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Group A Streptococcus (GAS) acquires covRS mutations driving a hypervirulent bacterial state, frequently associated with invasive disease‐like necrotizing fasciitis. We demonstrate that the newly emerged M1UK GAS lineage can also acquire these mutations.
