mPTP opening differently affects electron transport chain and oxidative phosphorylation at succinate and NAD-dependent substrates oxidation in permeabilized rat hepatocytes [PDF]
The Ukrainian Biochemical Journal, 2020 Mitochondrial Ca2+ overload may trigger the opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) and its prolonged activation leads to cell death. ATP synthase is considered as a possible molecular component of the pore. The aim of this study was

Impact of Ecological Factors on Biocrust Performance in the Stability of Loess Soils in the Incheh Buron Region [PDF]
DesertBiocrusts are used as a protective cover to stabilize the soil in dry areas, where the soil is more affected by erosion. In this research, various characteristics of the soil under the biological and physical crust were investigated as indicators of soil

Electrophysical and geoinformational methods of mapping the biological properties of peats
Бюллетень Почвенного института им. В.В. Докучаева, 2020 It is shown that the use of electrophysical methods and GIS technologies allows revealing soil coverage structure and spatial distribution of individual biological indicators, in particular, greenhouse gases production, in drained histosols (eutrophic ...

Effects of Soil Temperature and Moisture on Soil Respiration on the Tibetan Plateau.
PLoS ONE, 2016 Understanding of effects of soil temperature and soil moisture on soil respiration (Rs) under future warming is critical to reduce uncertainty in predictions of feedbacks to atmospheric CO2 concentrations from grassland soil carbon.

Talking SMAAC: A New Tool to Measure Soil Respiration and Microbial Activity
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2019 Soil respiration measurements are widely used to quantify carbon fluxes and ascertain soil biological properties related to soil microbial ecology and soil health, yet current methods to measure soil respiration either require expensive equipment or use ...

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.
