Percutaneous retrieval of a knotted provisional pacemaker using proximal electrode cut off and distal end snaring

open access: yesHeart Views, 2017
Although provisional pacemaker implantation can safely be done in many cases, a rare complication such as knotted electrode has been described, especially when the procedure is performed without fluoroscopy guidance.

Design of an Impedance-Controlled Hot Snare Polypectomy Device

open access: yesSensors, 2019
This paper goes through the process of first designing a feedback system that allows for the measuring of impedance while using the hot snare polypectomy method. The electrosurgical unit used in this study was the Olympus PSD-30.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Predicting the risk of illegal activity and evaluating law enforcement interventions in the western Serengeti

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, 2019
Illegal activity within protected areas is a primary driver of species decline and threatens conservation efforts. In the western corridor of the Serengeti Ecosystem of northern Tanzania, the Grumeti and Ikorongo Game Reserves and Ikona Wildlife ...

Securing SNAREs for assembly [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2020
SNARE proteins are essential for exocytosis, mediating the fusion of vesicles with their target membrane. Tethering factors play a key role in chaperoning SNARE assembly; however, the underlying molecular mechanisms are not well-understood. Here, Travis et al.

Decoding the dynamic extracellular matrix in cancer—3D models and bioscaffolds rewire the rules of tumor progression

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cancer progression is regulated by the dynamic matrix code of the tumor microenvironment, which influences cellular behavior and disease development. Importantly, matrix remodeling in three‐dimensional cancer models more accurately reflects in vivo conditions compared to conventional two‐dimensional systems.

An expanded role of the SNARE-containing regulon as it relates to the defense process that Glycine max has to Heterodera glycines

open access: yesJournal of Plant Interactions, 2019
The defense regulon has been defined genetically in Arabidopsis thaliana to involve the syntaxin PENETRATION1 (PEN1), the secreted glucosidase (PEN2) and an ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter (PEN3).

Munc18-1-regulated stage-wise SNARE assembly underlying synaptic exocytosis

open access: yeseLife, 2015
Synaptic-soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment receptor (SNARE) proteins couple their stage-wise folding/assembly to rapid exocytosis of neurotransmitters in a Munc18-1-dependent manner.

Investigating transcription factor dynamics in health and disease using FRAP

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
FRAP analysis of GFP‐tagged transcription factors reveals how molecular mobility and target engagement change in response to drug treatment. By combining live‐cell imaging, quantitative model fitting, and statistical analysis, this approach uncovers transcription factor dynamics linked to disease mechanisms, providing a powerful framework for ...

SNAREs and traffic

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2005
SNAREs (soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptors) are now generally accepted to be the major players in the final stage of the docking and the subsequent fusion of diverse vesicle-mediated transport events. The SNARE-mediated process is conserved evolutionally from yeast to human, as well as mechanistically and ...
