FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.TGF‐β1 stimulation downregulates lysosomal channel TRPML1 in pulmonary fibroblasts. The TRPML1 agonist ML‐SA5 suppressed fibroblast‐to‐myofibroblast activation and collagen production. Mechanistically, ML‐SA5 inhibited mTOR phosphorylation, restored autophagic flux, and its effects were enhanced by rapamycin (mTOR inhibitor) and reversed by MHY1485 ...

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.During the current opioid crisis, the majority of overdose deaths are attributed to ultra‐potent synthetic opioids, such as fentanyl. While fentanyl exerts its action via opioid receptors, we propose that potassium channels in the brain blood vessels may also sense fentanyl.

Using fluorescence fluctuation spectroscopy to quantify molecular dynamics within cells
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Microscopy techniques like fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) and number and brightness analysis (N&B) allow to quantify concentrations, diffusion rates, and oligomerization of fluorescently labeled molecules in the living cell. In this protocol the principles of how to set up these types of experiments are described including calibration ...

A nationwide student survey on biochemistry learning resources in Italy
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.We conducted a survey among Italian university students to investigate their preferred study materials for biochemistry. We then analyzed the collected data to identify these materials. This information may be valuable to the Biochemistry educational community. The graphical abstract was created with Claude (Opus 5.5; Anthropic, 2026).

GBS‐MeDIP: A method for the simultaneous identification of genetic and epigenetic variants in tumors
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.GBS‐MeDIP combines DNA sequencing with enrichment of methylated DNA to profile genetic and epigenetic variation in the same reduced genomic fraction. Applied to gastric cancer and parathyroid tumors, it identifies sequence variants, copy number changes, and differentially methylated regions together, helping distinguish true epigenetic changes from ...

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.To mimic the LH action in the ovary, granulosa‐cell and mouse models were stimulated by hCG, which changed RNA profiles within extracellular vesicles (EVs), and potentially hCG‐responsive EV RNAs increased the number of recipient ovarian cells. EV‐associated RNAs are potential intermediaries of hCG signaling.
