Cystic Fibrosis of the Pancreas: The Role of CFTR Channel in the Regulation of Intracellular Ca2+ Signaling and Mitochondrial Function in the Exocrine Pancreas

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common genetic disorder that causes a significant damage in secretory epithelial cells due to the defective ion flux across the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) Cl- channel.

Synaptotagmin-1 is the Ca2+ sensor for fast striatal dopamine release

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Dopamine powerfully controls neural circuits through neuromodulation. In the vertebrate striatum, dopamine adjusts cellular functions to regulate behaviors across broad time scales, but how the dopamine secretory system is built to support fast and slow ...

What are the Practices for Secret Management in Software Artifacts? [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Throughout 2021, GitGuardian's monitoring of public GitHub repositories revealed a two-fold increase in the number of secrets (database credentials, API keys, and other credentials) exposed compared to 2020, accumulating more than six million secrets. A systematic derivation of practices for managing secrets can help practitioners in secure development.

Matroids and Quantum Secret Sharing Schemes [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. A 81, 052333 (2010), 2009
A secret sharing scheme is a cryptographic protocol to distribute a secret state in an encoded form among a group of players such that only authorized subsets of the players can reconstruct the secret. Classically, efficient secret sharing schemes have been shown to be induced by matroids.

Genomic Analysis of ATP Efflux in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) plays an important role as a primary molecule for the transfer of chemical energy to drive biological processes. ATP also functions as an extracellular signaling molecule in a diverse array of eukaryotic taxa in a conserved ...

Influence of microclimatic conditions on nectar exudation in Glechoma hirsuta  W. K [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Biological Sciences, 2005
The nectar production of Glechoma hirsuta W. K. grown under different microclimatic habitat conditions was evaluated by determining the total daily nectar quantity per flower, diurnal dynamics of nectar secretion, the nectar secretion rate, and sugar ...

Osteoblast function in patients with idiopathic osteonecrosis of the femoral head: implications for a possible novel therapy

open access: yesBone & Joint Research, 2021
Aims: To investigate whether idiopathic osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is related to impaired osteoblast activities. Methods: We cultured osteoblasts isolated from trabecular bone explants taken from the femoral head and the intertrochanteric ...

Message Randomization and Strong Security in Quantum Stabilizer-Based Secret Sharing for Classical Secrets [PDF]

open access: yesDesigns, Codes and Cryptography, vol.88, no.9, pp.1893-1907, Sept. 2020, 2019
We improve the flexibility in designing access structures of quantum stabilizer-based secret sharing schemes for classical secrets, by introducing message randomization in their encoding procedures. We generalize the Gilbert-Varshamov bound for deterministic encoding to randomized encoding of classical secrets.

The secreted secret of PCSK9 [PDF]

open access: yesScience-Business eXchange, 2009
Amgen researchers have demonstrated that blocking secreted PCSK9 in mice and nonhuman primates lowers LDL cholesterol. The findings bolster the case for an antibody-based approach to blocking the protein, which is a genetically validated target for hypercholesterolemia.
