Coherent evolution of potential vorticity anomalies associated with deep moist convection [PDF]
, 2017 Potential Vorticity (PV) elegantly describes synoptic- and planetary-scale dynamics, but it has received less attention on smaller scales. On the convective scale PV is characterised by dipoles associated with convective cells.

Antagonistic regulation of parvalbumin expression and mitochondrial calcium handling capacity in renal epithelial cells [PDF]
, 2015 Parvalbumin (PV) is a cytosolic Ca²⁺-binding protein acting as a slow-onset Ca²⁺ buffer modulating the shape of Ca²⁺ transients in fast-twitch muscles and a subpopulation of neurons. PV is also expressed in non-excitable cells including distal convoluted

Parvalbumin-expressing ependymal cells in rostral lateral ventricle wall adhesions contribute to aging-related ventricle stenosis in mice [PDF]
, 2017 Aging-associated ependymal-cell pathologies can manifest as ventricular gliosis, ventricle enlargement, or ventricle stenosis. Ventricle stenosis and fusion of the lateral ventricle (LV) walls is associated with a massive decline of the proliferative ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Hippo pathway at the crossroads of stemness and therapeutic resistance in breast cancer
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Dysregulation of the Hippo pathway drives nuclear accumulation of YAP/TAZ, activating stemness‐related transcriptional programs that sustain breast cancer stemness and fuel therapeutic resistance across subtypes, underscoring Hippo signaling as a targetable vulnerability. Figure created and edited with BioRender.com.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Radiotherapy (RT) response depends on the DNA repair capacity of tumor and host cells. We show that circulating tumor cell (CTC) counts and apoptosis rates before and after RT predict treatment response and outcome, which can be accessed via easily accessible liquid biopsy approaches.

Modeling and Detection of Hotspot in Shaded Photovoltaic Cells [PDF]
, 2014 In this paper, we address the problem of modeling the thermal behavior of photovoltaic (PV) cells undergoing a hotspot condition. In case of shading, PV cells may experience a dramatic temperature increase, with consequent reduction of the provided power.
