Participation of PLA2 and PLC in DhL-induced activation of Rhinella arenarum oocytes [PDF]

, 2015
Rhinella arenarum oocytes can be artificially activated, a process known as parthenogenesis, by a sesquiterpenic lactone of the guaianolide group, dehydroleucodine (DhL). Transient increases in the concentration of cytosolic Ca2+ are essential to trigger

Stretchable h‐BN/TPU Fibers for Passive‐Active Dual‐Mode Thermal Management and Wearable Haptic Interfaces

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Optimized 30 wt.% h‐BN/TPU fibers create a thermal conductivity of 2.08 W·m−1·K−1 while retaining mechanical compliance (422% elongation at break). Woven fabrics reduce surface temperature by 5.7°C under simulated solar irradiation. Glove integration enables localized fingertip heating at 29.55°C·s−1 with a thermal relaxation time of approximately 20 s.

CircFAM65A/CANX Condensates Sequester FAM134B to Inhibit ER‐phagy and Suppress Hepatocellular Carcinoma Progression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The novel circRNA circFAM65A suppresses HCC progression. Mechanistically, circFAM65A drives CANX phase separation, which recruits FAM134B into condensates and blocks its interaction with LC3, thereby inhibiting ER‐phagy and HCC progression. Importantly, targeted circFAM65A delivery represents a potential therapeutic strategy for HCC.

Temporary Programs, Lasting Questions: Ad Hoc Assistance in the U.S. Farm Safety Net

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Large ad hoc assistance programs have returned to U.S. farm policy since 2017, operating alongside a more developed safety net built around federally subsidized crop insurance, Title I commodity programs, and standing disaster assistance. This paper reviews the renewed use of ad hoc assistance, documents its recent scale using USDA data, and ...

Molecular Basis of NPY Recognition and Ligand Selectivity at the Neuropeptide Y5 Receptor

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Here, we present the first active structure of the neuropeptide Y5 receptor (NPY5R) in complex with its endogenous ligand NPY and the Gi1 protein. The cryo‐electron microscopy structure, validated by extensive mutagenesis studies, gives important insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying ligand binding and receptor activation.
