Glycosylated LGALS3BP is highly secreted by bladder cancer cells and represents a novel urinary disease biomarker

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Urinary LGALS3BP is elevated in bladder cancer patients compared to healthy controls as detected by the 1959 antibody–based ELISA. The antibody shows enhanced reactivity to the high‐mannose glycosylated variant secreted by cancer cells treated with kifunensine (KIF).

The Role of Background Acoustic Stimuli in Dual Tasks: A Study on Postural Control Performance

Brain and Behavior
Introduction Performing everyday tasks requires the use of multiple cognitive, sensory, and emotional systems. The interference of different variables in these multitasking systems affects our motor‐balance system. This study was conducted to investigate

Reliability and Validity of the Hand Reach Star Excursion Balance Test

Journal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology, 2017
Measuring dynamic postural control and mobility using task-based full-body movements has been advocated. The star excursion balance test (SEBT) is well-established, but it does not elicit large upper body joint movements.

An efficient strategy for producing RNA‐free Nucleocapsid protein of SARS‐CoV‐2 for biochemical and structural investigations

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cleavable N‐terminal Thioredoxin fusion enabled soluble expression and purification of otherwise insoluble SARS‐CoV‐2 Nucleocapsid (N) protein. A four‐step purification strategy yielded highly homogeneous, RNA‐free N protein. Binding assays showed high RNA affinity (Kd ~ 28 nm). The study will facilitate high‐resolution structural studies of N protein,

Aging causes a reorganization of cortical and spinal control of posture

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2013
Classical studies in animal preparations suggest a strong role for spinal control of posture. In humans it is now established that the cerebral cortex contributes to postural control of unperturbed and perturbed standing. The age-related degeneration and

Teaching Python with team‐based learning: using cloud‐based notebooks for interactive coding education

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study presents a novel approach to teaching Python and bioinformatics using team‐based learning and cloud‐hosted notebooks. By integrating interactive coding into biomedical education, the method improves accessibility, student engagement, and confidence—especially for those without a computing background.

A Posture Recognition-Based Fall Detection System for Monitoring an Elderly Person in a Smart Home Environment

IEEE Transactions on Information Technology in Biomedicine, 2012
We propose a novel computer vision-based fall detection system for monitoring an elderly person in a home care application. Background subtraction is applied to extract the foreground human body and the result is improved by using certain postprocessing.

Structural and functional characterization of chitinase from carnivorous plant Drosera adelae

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
A class I chitinase from the carnivorous plant Drosera adelae was expressed and purified using a yeast system, revealing high enzymatic activity. Structural analyses of the catalytic and chitin‐binding domains identified key tyrosine residues involved in substrate binding, offering insights into the enzyme's adaptation for insect digestion.

Functional disorders of posture and foot in students aged 17–20 years depending on the physiological reserves of the cardio-respiratory system

Здоров’я, спорт, реабілітація, 2018
The aim of the work is to determine the correlation relationship between indicators of the anatomical state of the foot, functional disorders of posture and the level of physiological reserves of the cardiorespiratory system in students aged 17–20 years.
