Adaptation to Long-Term Home Non-Invasive Ventilation for People with Chronic Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure: A Qualitative Study

Nursing Reports
Background/Objectives: Home non-invasive ventilation use is the primary treatment for improving respiratory function in people with chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure. Non-invasive ventilation has also been studied to understand users’ perspectives.

Behavioral and Physiological Adaptation to Soil Moisture in the Overwintering Larvae of the Rice Stem Borer in the Subtropics

Agriculture, 2023
Diapausing larvae of the rice stem borer, Chilo suppressalis Walker, overwinter in rice stubble. During overwintering, the larvae may move to sites with suitable moisture and undergo physiological changes to prepare for the declining temperature.

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only

Photochemical, Anatomical, and Growth Changes in Cassava Cultivars after Application of Post-Emergent Herbicides

Agriculture, 2022
Plants develop a series of adaptive mechanisms capable of tolerating the action of herbicides; however, little is known about the physiological mechanisms developed by cassava.

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.

Novel insights into sex-specific differences in heart rate variability and autonomic nervous system regulation during spawning behavior in chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) revealed by re-analysis of ECG logger data

Frontiers in Physiology
This study reanalysed electrocardiogram (ECG) data collected in a previous study on chum salmon to explore sex-specific differences in heart rate variability (HRV) and autonomic nervous system regulation during spawning.

Functional Genomics Uncovers Pleiotropic Role of Rhomboids in Corynebacterium glutamicum

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
The physiological role of ubiquitous rhomboid proteases, membrane-integral proteins that cleave their substrates inside the lipid bilayer, is still ill-defined in many prokaryotes.

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Circadian rhythms in intracellular [Mg2+] exist across eukaryotic kingdoms. Central roles for Mg2+ in metabolism suggest that Mg2+ rhythms could regulate daily cellular energy and metabolism. In this Perspective paper, we propose that ancestral prokaryotic transport proteins could be responsible for mediating Mg2+ rhythms and posit a feedback model ...

The Use of Myocardial Work in Athletes: A Novel Approach to Assess Cardiac Adaptations and Differentiate Physiological Remodeling from Pathology

Applied Sciences
Myocardial work (MW), derived from non-invasive pressure–strain loop (PSL) analysis, has recently emerged as a promising echocardiographic index for assessing left ventricular performance.

Crosstalk between the ribosome quality control‐associated E3 ubiquitin ligases LTN1 and RNF10

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Loss of the E3 ligase LTN1, the ubiquitin‐like modifier UFM1, or the deubiquitinating enzyme UFSP2 disrupts endoplasmic reticulum–ribosome quality control (ER‐RQC), a pathway that removes stalled ribosomes and faulty proteins. This disruption may trigger a compensatory response to ER‐RQC defects, including increased expression of the E3 ligase RNF10 ...
