FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Interaction extracellular vesicles (iEVs) are hybrid vesicles formed through host‐pathogen communication. They facilitate immune evasion, transfer pathogens' molecules, increase host cell uptake, and enhance virulence. This Perspective article illustrates the multifunctional roles of iEVs and highlights their emerging relevance in infection dynamics ...

Entropy geometric construction of a pure substance with normal, superfluid and supersolid phases [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 Using the laws of thermodynamics together with empirical data, we present a qualitative geometric construction of the fundamental relation of a pure substance $S = S(E,N,V)$, with $S$ entropy, $E$ energy, $N$ number of particles and $V$ volume. We analyze two very general type of substances, a "normal" and a "quantum" one, the main difference between ...

Complexity and asymptotic stability in the process of biochemical substance exchange in a coupled ring of cells [PDF]
, 2013 We have considered the complexity and asymptotic stability in the process of biochemical substance exchange in a coupled ring of cells. We have used coupled maps to model this process. It includes the coupling parameter, cell affinity and environmental factor as master parameters of the model.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) accounts for half of the heart failure cases. It is characterised by microvascular dysfunction, associated with reduced pericyte coverage and diminished STAT3 expression in pericytes. Loss of STAT3 impairs pericyte adhesion, promotes senescence, and activates a pro‐fibrotic gene program.
