Simple technique for photographic reproduction of radiographs [PDF]
American Journal of Roentgenology, 1983 Several techniques for reproducing radiographs are available, but none is simple enough to encourage routine photographic duplication for slides, photographs, publication, and/or storage. Such a technique is presented. It allows the hand-holding of the camera (fast exposures), the use of commercially available and commonly used black-and-white films ...

Making tau amyloid models in vitro: a crucial and underestimated challenge
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This review highlights the challenges of producing in vitro amyloid assemblies of the tau protein. We review how accurately the existing protocols mimic tau deposits found in the brain of patients affected with tauopathies. We discuss the important properties that should be considered when forming amyloids and the benchmarks that should be used to ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Toll‐like receptors (TLRs) are important in the innate immune system. This study explores the zinc‐binding ability of the TLR2 TIR domain (TLR2TIR). We found that TLR2TIR binds zinc with nanomolar affinity through its cysteine residues. Two of them, C673 and C713, are vital for receptor activation, indicating that zinc may play a role in initiating ...
