Towards prospective identification of optimal scan parameters for CT-guided interventions: a phantom study

open access: yesScientific Reports
CT-guided interventions require balance between radiation dose and image quality. This study evaluates the impact of tube voltage and tube load on the contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) across different patient sizes and target tissues. A modular multi-energy

Prospecting the protein design landscape

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review outlines the current state of various protein design approaches. We discuss the current possibilities enabled by recently released tools, highlight future avenues to pursue in protein design, and underscore the crucial role of key databases and resources for successful protein design workflows.

L‐aspartate oxidase provides new insights into fumarate reduction in anaerobic darkness in Synechocystis sp. PCC6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Synechocystis strains deficient in succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) secrete more succinate than the WT under dark anaerobic conditions, supporting that SDH then primarily acts as SDH, not as a fumarate reductase. L‐aspartate oxidase (Laspo) from Synechocystis is functional under anaerobic conditions, reducing fumarate to succinate.

A Simple Method for Calibrating Pixel Values of the CT Localizer Radiograph for Calculating Water-Equivalent Diameter and Size-Specific Dose Estimate

open access: yes, 2018
The purpose of this study is to establish the relationship between the pixel value (I) of the CT localizer radiograph and water-equivalent thickness (tw) in a straightforward procedure.

Appraisal of radiation dose with 64-slice computed tomography perfusion in lung cancer patients with special reference to SSDE: An initial experience in a tertiary care hospital

open access: yesIndian Journal of Radiology and Imaging, 2017
Context: Computed tomography perfusion (CTP) is an important functional tool for lung cancer. It is expected to deliver high radiation dose, making its accurate estimation important. Size-specific dose estimate (SSDE) is a new dose metric, which includes

A context‐dependent modulatory role for eIF6 in acquired resistance to vemurafenib in melanoma

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Acquired resistance to vemurafenib upregulates the translation factor eIF6 in melanoma cells. Silencing eIF6 in resistant cells reduces proliferation and partially restores drug sensitivity, whereas its overexpression increases sensitivity across melanoma lines regardless of BRAF status, via modulation of mTOR, S6K, and MAPK signaling.

Practical considerations for optimal designs in clinical dose finding studies [PDF]

open access: yes
Determining an adequate dose level for a drug and, more broadly, characterizing its dose response relationship, are key objectives in the clinical development of any medicinal drug. If the dose is set too high, safety and tolerability problems are likely
