Axial muscle‐fibre orientations in larval zebrafish

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 517-533, April 2025.
In 4 days post‐fertilization zebrafish larvae, the fast axial muscle fibres follow helical trajectories that taper towards the tail. Adjacent muscle fibres form substantial angles relative to each other to accommodate this pattern. Using a novel semi‐automatic method, we quantified 3D fibre angles over the whole muscle volume.

Vascular Dynamics During Respiratory Arousal From Sleep Assessed by Oximeter‐Based Vascular Stiffness Measures

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cortical arousals significantly impact obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) pathophysiology and cardiovascular consequences, often mediated by sympathetic activation. While pulse oximetry (PPG) provides an accessible reflection of autonomic responses such as changes in pulse rate (PR) and pulse wave amplitude (PWA), the dynamic influence on other ...

Endogenous RALF peptide function is required for powdery mildew host colonization

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Model of RALF‐FER‐dependent effects on powdery mildew sporulation. Summary The receptor kinase FERONIA (FER) is a susceptibility factor for biotrophic powdery mildew fungal pathogens in Arabidopsis thaliana, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain largely unknown. FER is required for the perception of endogenous RAPID ALKALINIZATION FACTOR (RALF)

Therapeutic potential of spexin in diabetic neuropathy: Insights from in vitro and in vivo models

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The present study investigated the therapeutic potential of spexin (SPX) on both in vitro and in vivo models of diabetic neuropathy (DN). A total of 40 male BALB/c mice were randomly allocated into four experimental groups (n = 10 per group): a normoglycaemic control, an untreated DN group and two SPX treatment groups (DN+SPX‐12.5 and DN+SPX ...

Vascular smooth muscle cell mechanotransduction: Pathways, phenotypes and emerging technologies

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Vascular smooth muscle cells are exposed to mechanical stimuli from the blood flow and the extracellular matrix. The cells sense the signals from cyclic stretch, shear stress, hydrostatic pressure and matrix stiffness through specialized mechanosensors, such as mechanosensitive ion channels or cell surface receptors including ...

Prediction of Properties of Polymer Composite Formulations Using Ensemble Models With Feature Generation

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 25, July 5, 2026.
This study develops an interpretable machine‐learning framework to predict multiple properties of polymer composites based on composition and processing variables. By combining ensemble models with composition‐based feature generation and SHAP‐based interpretation, the approach reveals composition‐property relationships and supports efficient multi ...

A Fully Automated Pipeline for Vertebral Structural Assessment From Medical Images. Application Under Metastatic Conditions

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering, Volume 42, Issue 7, July 2026.
We present an automated CT‐to‐simulation workflow to estimate structural response and fracture risk in metastasis‐affected vertebrae. Deep learning performs vertebral identification and segmentation, while CPD assigns geometry‐aware boundary conditions.

Selective Optical Properties of Cement for Enhanced Radiative Cooling and Energy‐Efficient Construction Materials

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, Volume 9, Issue 4, July 2026.
Cement phases are good materials for radiative cooling thanks to the selective emissivity in IR ATW. Cement powders have high reflectance of solar radiation which reduces the thermal losses. The onset of the absorption curves is defined by bound excitons. Sulfates have higher radiated powers and reflectance than calcium silicates.
