Depletion of Hepatic SREBP2 Protects Against Hypercholesterolemia and Atherosclerosis through the ANGPTL3‐LPL Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals a novel crosstalk between hepatic SREBP2‐mediated cholesterol biosynthesis pathway and peripheral lipoprotein lipase‐mediated lipolysis pathway in the regulation of systemic lipid metabolism. Notably, the lipid‐lowering effects of SREBP2 inhibition are independent of a functional LDL receptor, highlighting the potential of acute ...

Anomalous thermodiffusion, absolute negative mobility and reverse heat transport in a single quantum dot [PDF]

arXiv
We investigate the steady-state transport characteristics of a quantum dot system consisting of a single energy level embedded between two reservoirs under the influence of both the temperature gradient and bias voltage. Within tailored parameter regimes, the system can exhibit three counterintuitive transport phenomena of anomalous thermodiffusion ...

Gut Microbiota Colonization in Early Life Influences Susceptibility to Adulthood Hepatic Lipid Accumulation in High‐Fat‐Diet‐Fed Mice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study indicates that perinatal antibiotic exposure elevates susceptibility to high‐fat‐diet‐induced hepatic lipid accumulation via disrupting early‐life gut microbiota colonization. The decreased Lactobacillus colonization inhibits primary‐to‐secondary bile acid conversion, lowering secondary bile acids, enhancing adulthood intestinal lipid ...

Cubic Phase‐Inducible Zwitterionic Phospholipids Improve the Functional Delivery of mRNA

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, a chemically engineered zwitterionic phospholipids derived from 1,2‐dioleoyl‐3‐sn‐glycero‐phosphoethanolamine (DOPE), DOPE‐Cx, are designed. The DOPE‐Cx lipids induce a cubic phase upon mixing with phosphatidylcholine, facilitate membrane fusion‐mediated endosomal escape, and enhance the functional delivery of mRNA.

Extracellular Vesicle‐Packaged Linc‐ZNF25‐1 from Pancreatic Cancer Cell Promotes Pancreatic Stellate Cell Uptake of Asparagine to Advance Chemoresistance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study explores the role of gemcitabine (GEM)‐resistant pancreatic cancer‐derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) in activating pancreatic stellate cells (PSCs) and promoting extracellular matrix production. GEM‐resistant cells release higher levels of asparagine (Asn), which triggers PSC activation. Long noncoding RNA sequencing identified linc‐ZNF25‐

Accessible ecophysiological tools for seabird conservation

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 32, Issue 12, Page 1983-2002, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Seabirds are the most endangered avian taxa on Earth, with over a third of species globally threatened. To help slow their decline, conservation physiology seeks to determine how seabird responses to climatic and anthropogenic threats influence demographic processes, but it is not widely utilized in monitoring.

Comprehensive Insights into the Cholesterol-Mediated Modulation of Membrane Function through Molecular Dynamics Simulations [PDF]

arXiv
Cholesterol plays an essential role in biological membranes and is crucial for maintaining their stability and functionality. It is necessary for a variety of membranes, including planar bilayers, liposomes, curved bilayers, nanodiscs, and proteoliposomes.
