Derivation and characterization of retinal pigment epithelium from urine‐derived iPSCs

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Age‐related macular degeneration causes vision loss via RPE dysfunction and loss. Traditional iPSC therapies rely on invasive biopsies, limiting scalability. Here, we utilize urine‐derived stem cells as an accessible source to generate u‐iPSCs, successfully differentiated into pigmented RPE. This “Urine‐to‐Retina” platform provides a promising path for

Use of Indigenous Lactic Acid Bacteria for Industrial Fermented Sausage Production: Microbiological, Chemico-Physical and Sensory Features and Biogenic Amine Content

Fermentation
The use of starter cultures in the meat industry is common, even if the number of available commercial cultures is limited, inducing product standardisation and microbial diversity reduction.

Pharmacological inhibition of the PERK pathway modulates hepatocellular carcinoma growth and immune signaling

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Pharmacological inhibition of PERK in a DEN‐induced mouse model of liver cancer does not reduce tumor burden but alters cellular stress signaling. Despite blocking PERK activity, downstream stress responses, including CHOP expression, remain active, suggesting compensatory mechanisms within the unfolded protein response that may influence tumor ...

THE INFLUENCE OF STARTER CULTURE OF LACTIC- ACID BACTERIA AND BIFID BACTERIA OVER THE SANITARY- HYGENIC, SENSOR AND PHYSICAL – CHEMICAL INDICATORS ON THE RE – BOILED – SMOKED DURABLE SAUSAGE

Journal of Agriculture and Plant Sciences, 2017
The objective of this research was to study the influence of the lactic-acid bacteria and bifid bacteria over the growth of the sanitary indicator bacteria E.coli during the process of draining of the boiled-smoked durable sausage.

Starter Cultures for the Production of Fermented Table Olives: Current Status and Future Perspectives

Fermentation
Table olives are widely produced and consumed in the Mediterranean area. The production of table olives is mainly based on spontaneous fermentations, which may have several drawbacks (e.g., the development of undesirable microorganisms; organoleptic ...

Sudden anaerobization in Amphibacillus xylanus increases intracellular labile ferrous iron and inhibits cell growth

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Abruptly changing from aerobic to anaerobic conditions (sudden anaerobization) induced growth inhibition and a significant increase in intracellular labile ferrous iron in the aerotolerant anaerobe Amphibacillus xylanus. We found that free flavins mediate efficient electron transfer from NADH to ferric iron under anaerobic conditions, suggesting that ...

RoundMi: A quantitative method to analyze mitochondrial morphology in mitotic cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
RoundMi is a workflow for rapid analysis of mitochondrial morphology in mitotic cells. By combining adaptive preprocessing with automated segmentation and quantification, it enables accurate measurements from single focal plane images, reducing acquisition time and computational demands while remaining compatible with high‐throughput fixed and live ...

Comparative insights into the metabolite and taste discrepancies upon kimchi (Mukeunji) fermentation using different Lactobacillaceae starters

Food Chemistry: X
Starter cultures play a key role in shaping the flavor and sensory traits of kimchi during fermentation. This study compared seven Lactobacillaceae starters using metabolite profiling and electronic tongue/nose analyses.

Versatile vector tools for efficient protein screening across multiple expression systems

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
A unified vector toolkit enables rapid protein expression screening across E. coli, insect, and mammalian cells. A single primer pair amplifies the target gene, which is inserted into any vector via a standardized interface. This streamlined workflow eliminates repeated cloning steps, accelerating the identification of optimal expression conditions for

Effects of IGFBP4 deficiency on human preadipocyte proliferation and differentiation through the IGF1R/AKT pathway

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
IGFBP4 knockdown (KD) impairs preadipocyte proliferation and is associated with IGF1R protein downregulation and attenuated AKT phosphorylation. The mechanisms by which IGFBP4 KD influences the IGF1R/AKT signaling pathway involve newly synthesized proteins and lysosomal degradation pathways. Created in BioRender.
