Ultrafast all-optical signal modulation induced by optical Kerr effect (OKE) was demonstrated in an all-solid tellurite photonic bandgap fiber (PBGF) which was designed and fabricated based on TeO2-Li2O-WO3-MoO3-Nb2O5 (TLWMN, high-index rods), TeO2-ZnO ...

ER Retention of Signaling Modules [PDF]
A novel strategy for controlling developmental signaling pathways, which uses specific ER retention mechanisms, has emerged from several recent studies. A paper by Yamamoto et al. (2005) identifies a new protein termed Shisa that inhibits both Wnt- and FGF-signaling pathways during Xenopus gastrulation by mediating ER retention of the Wnt receptor ...

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane
Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.

Limits on discrete modulated signals [PDF]
We develop theorems of a general nature that apply to the analysis of AM-FM signals of the form a(m)exp [j/spl phi/(m)] or a(m) cos [/spl phi/(m)] and to their behavior both in linear systems and in simple nonlinear systems comprised of products of linear elements.

Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

The human gut microbiome across the life course
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

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.

In optical transmission technique using optical polarization, the change of state of polarization (SOP) and the rotation of SOP (RSOP) during optical transmission has a significant impact on the transmission performance.

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.
