Seismological insights into solar and stellar magnetic activity cycles

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
The Sun’s magnetic activity cycle varies primarily on a time scale of approximately 11yrs from minimum to maximum and back again. It is well-known that the properties of the Sun’s acoustic oscillations are affected by the near-surface internal magnetic ...

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
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.

Magnetic Activity of Millions of G-type Stars Based on the LAMOST DR10 Low-resolution Spectral and TESS Light-curve Surveys and the Future CSST Survey

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
The Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) data release 10 (DR10) provides over 3 million G-type stellar spectra, which are important for the study of chromospheric activity of solar-like stars.

Photospheric stellar activity cycles [PDF]

Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2006
AbstractCycle lengths of active stars are derived from long-term photometric monitoring of their secular light variability. With the help of photographic data archives the lengths of the datasets are extended for HK Lac and V833 Tau. Using time-frequency analysis it is shown that the cycles are continuously changing in time.

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Starspot Area Coverage: Correlation with Age and Spectral Type in FGK and M Stars

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Starspots, analogous to sunspots, are surface manifestations of stellar magnetic activity. Their study provides crucial insights into stellar dynamo processes and the evolution of magnetic phenomena.

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
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.

Tidal effects on stellar activity

, 2016
The architecture of many exoplanetary systems is different from the solar system, with exoplanets being in close orbits around their host stars and having orbital periods of only a few days.

Correcting Exoplanet Transmission Spectra for Stellar Activity with an Optimized Retrieval Framework

The Astrophysical Journal
The chromatic contamination that arises from photospheric heterogeneities, e.g., spots and faculae on the host star presents a significant noise source for exoplanet transmission spectra.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...
