Observations and Radiative Transfer Simulations of the Carbon-rich AGB Star V Oph with VLTI/MATISSE

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Carbon-rich asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars are among the most important contributors of enriched materials to the interstellar medium due to their strong stellar winds.

Metformin promotes mitochondrial integrity through AMPK‐signaling in Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Metformin mediates mitochondrial quality control in Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) fibroblasts carrying mtDNA mutations. At therapeutic levels, metformin activates AMPK signaling to restore mitochondrial dynamics by promoting fusion and restraining fission, while preserving mitochondrial mass, enhancing autophagy/mitophagy and biogenesis ...

A Model for Eruptive Mass Loss in Massive Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Eruptive mass loss in massive stars is known to occur, but the mechanism(s) are not yet well understood. One proposed physical explanation appeals to opacity-driven super-Eddington luminosities in stellar envelopes.

Stellar magnetic activity – Star-Planet Interactions

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
Stellar magnetic activity is an important factor in the formation and evolution of exoplanets. Magnetic phenomena like stellar flares, coronal mass ejections, and high-energy emission affect the exoplanetary atmosphere and its mass loss over time.

Pioglitazone plus (−)‐epigallocatechin gallate: a novel approach to enhance osteogenic performance in aged bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Aged human bmMSCs are seeded in the scaffold. Osteoblastic induction can slightly increase cell's bone‐forming activity to produce bone‐like tissues, shown as the sporadic xylenol orange‐stained spots (the lower left image). Notably, pioglitazone plus EGCG co‐treatment dramatically increases cell's bone‐forming activity and bone‐like tissue production (

Enzymatic degradation of biopolymers in amorphous and molten states: mechanisms and applications

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This review explains how polymer morphology and thermal state shape enzymatic degradation pathways, comparing amorphous and molten biopolymer structures. By integrating structure–reactivity principles with insights from thermodynamics and enzyme engineering, it highlights mechanisms that enable efficient polymer breakdown.

Li Enrichment in Red Clump Giants: Clues for Past Binary Interaction or Merger Events

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
To understand the underlying mechanisms of high Li abundances among core He-burning or red clump (RC) giants, we analyzed a sample of 5227 RC giants of mass M ≤ 2 M _⊙ using spectra and asteroseismic data.
