Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Energy harvesting using semi-active nonlinear control
, 2013 This paper presents the application of semi-active control for power harvesting using an electromechanical energy harvester. Two semi-active control strategies are proposed in the form of a time-periodic damper and a nonlinear cubic damper.

Epigenetic reprogramming of lineage switching in cancer
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Cancer cells rarely commit to a single identity. Epigenetic mechanisms and tumor microenvironment cues push epithelial cells toward flexible, hybrid states that can shift into mesenchymal, neuroendocrine, or stem‐like fates, driving metastasis, drug resistance, and tumor heterogeneity. Targeting the epigenetic regulators behind these transitions, using

Semi-active control of crankshaft skyhook based on magnetorheological torsional damper
Frontiers in Materials, 2022 The purpose of this study was to solve the problem that the damping of rubber or silicone oil torsional dampers used in crankshafts is not adjustable and cannot effectively control torsional vibration at different resonant frequencies.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Encapsulins are protein nanocompartments that play an important role in iron storage. In the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin system, two cargo proteins called EncB and EncC contribute to iron mineralization. Here, we show that EncB and EncC generate iron‐containing minerals with distinct chemical compositions, suggesting that the composition of stored ...

Effects of the structural period variations and near field earthquakes on a fuzzy controller performance for the variably baffled tuned liquid damper [PDF]
Numerical Methods in Civil EngineeringStructural control as a countermeasure against unwanted structural vibrations is divided into three general categories known as passive, active, and semi-active. Among various structural control devices, the tuned Liquid Damper (TLD) can lend itself well

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.
