FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

RNA‐related functions of BRCA2 in transcription, replication, and genome stability
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Beyond its role in homologous recombination, BRCA2 regulates R‐loop homeostasis, DNA–RNA hybrid resolution, RNA polymerase II dynamics, and transcriptional activation. Disruption of any of these functions can contribute to genome instability, inflammatory signaling, and tumorigenesis. BRCA2 is a central tumor suppressor protein best known for its roles

The ubiquitin system in normal and infected germinal center B cells
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The ubiquitin system plays a central role in germinal center (GC) B cells, influencing differentiation to long‐lived memory B cells. Oncogenic gammaherpesviruses gain access to memory B cells by establishing latency in GC B cells. Mapping ubiquitin mechanisms in normal and infected GC B cells will define specific molecular circuits in B cells germane ...

Monoclonal antibodies as tools in antigen detection assay and vaccine development : design of a sensitive detection test for Brucella bacteria and profiling of the malaria vaccine candidate antigen reticulocyte-binding homolog 2 (PfRH2) [PDF]
, 2015 We aimed at identifying immunodominant Brucella antigens for implementation in new detection tools or for subunit vaccine development. In particular, our strategy was to produce Brucella cell surface antigen-specific monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for the ...

Проблемы особо опасных инфекций, 2010 Among 15 Vibrio cholerae El Tor O1 virulent strains of Inaba and Ogawa serovars grown in sterile river water, 6 strains were found to lose spontaneously the core region of CTXφ prophage including structural genes (ctxAB) of cholera toxin.

Membrane composition and thermodynamic identity as boundaries of life for synthetic cell research
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.What makes a cell a cell? The boundary of a living cell is not just a wall. Read as a Markov blanket, the membrane separates internal from external states, generating identity and non‐equilibrium order. Can this identity be rebuilt from scratch in a synthetic cell?

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...
