Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Sphingolipids are increasingly recognized as critical regulators of inflammation and cell fate decisions, with metabolites such as ceramide and sphingosine 1-phosphate exerting contrasting effects on cell survival and proliferation. In macrophages, this balance is especially important, given their central role in host defense, pathogenesis and wound ...

Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Molecular analysis of resolving immune responses in uveitis
SUMMARYTo identify the cellular immune processes underlying intra-ocular inflammation, aqueous humour was obtained at cataract surgery from 22 patients with clinically inactive uveitis and 24 patients with age-related cataract. mRNA expression for the cytokines IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12, interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), transforming growth factor ...

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Wilson loops in ABJM theory reloaded
We present a new technique for computing supersymmetric Wilson loops in the ABJM theory via supersymmetric localization, valid for arbitrary values of the rank of the gauge group N and the Chern-Simons level k.
