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.

Liquid-liquid phase transitions in supercooled water studied by computer simulations of various water models

open access: yes, 2005
Liquid-liquid and liquid-vapor coexistence regions of various water models were determined by MC simulations of isotherms of density fluctuation restricted systems and by Gibbs ensemble MC simulations. All studied water models show multiple liquid-liquid

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 ...

Analogies between phase transitions in potential games and quantum phase transitions

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics
Potential games at population level has a very natural analogy with statistical mechanical systems. Here we show that there are clear analogies between quantum phase transitions at zero temperature and phase transitions in potential games being played by

The earliest phase transition? [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Physics B, 2000
The question of a phase transition in exiting the Planck epoch of the early universe is addressed. An order parameter is proposed to help decide the issue, and estimates are made concerning its behavior. Our analysis is suggestive that a phase transition occurred.

The human gut microbiome across the life course

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

Cloud regimes as phase transitions

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2016
Clouds are repeatedly identified as a leading source of uncertainty in future climate predictions. Of particular importance are stratocumulus clouds, which can appear as either (i) closed cells that reflect solar radiation back to space or (ii) open ...

Topology and Phase Transitions: towards a proper mathematical definition of finite N transitions

open access: yes, 2001
A new point of view about the deep origin of thermodynamic phase transitions is sketched. The main idea is to link the appearance of phase transitions to some major topology change of suitable submanifolds of phase space instead of linking them to non ...

Chiral Phase Transitions

open access: yes, 2001
We show that melting the quark mass, the scalar $σ$ mass and the quark condensate leads uniquely to the quark-level SU(2) linear $σ$ model field theory. Upon thermalization, the chiral phase transition curve requires $T_c =2f^{CL}_π\approx 180 MeV$ when $μ= 0$, while the critical chemical potential is $μ_c =m_q\approx 325 MeV$.

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.
