The heterodimeric amino acid transporters (HAT) of the SLC7/SLC3 family: A structure−function relationships and relevance to human pathology

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.

Membrane composition and thermodynamic identity as boundaries of life for synthetic cell research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
What makes a cell a cell? The boundary of a living cell is not just a wall. Read as a Markov blanket, the membrane separates internal from external states, generating identity and non‐equilibrium order. Can this identity be rebuilt from scratch in a synthetic cell?

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Morphology of the patent arterial duct : features relevant to treatment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), one of the most common congenital heart defects, is an abnormal persistence of a patent lumen in the arterial duct due to an arrest of the natural process of closure after it has served its function as a vital channel ...

Metastasis on pause: How dormant tumor cells stay hidden within the tumor microenvironment and evade immune surveillance

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dormant cancer cells can hide in distant organs for years, evading treatment and the immune system. This review highlights how signals from the surrounding tissue and immune environment keep these cells inactive or trigger their reawakening. Understanding these mechanisms may help develop therapies to eliminate or control dormant cells and prevent ...

Percutaneous closure of residual leak after surgical left atrial appendage ligation: a case of stroke prevention in high-risk atrial fibrillation

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders
Incomplete surgical left atrial appendage (LAA) closure is associated with increased thromboembolic risk in atrial fibrillation patients. We present a case of successful percutaneous closure of a significant residual leak following surgical LAA ligation.

USP29‐regulated noncanonical stabilization of the hypoxia‐inducible factor‐α in aggressive prostate cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We identify USP29 as the only DUB mirroring CA9 expression, a marker of hypoxia and HIF pathway activation associated with PCA aggressiveness. USP29 stabilizes HIF‐1α and HIF‐2α via a noncanonical mechanism that is independent of PHD/pVHL activity yet relies on proteasomal regulation, establishing USP29 as a previously unrecognized regulator of hypoxic

The anatomy of interatrial communications - what does the interventionist need to know? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Increasingly, the interventional cardiologist is seeking to close interatrial communications by inserting devices by means of catheterisation. So as to optimise these procedures, it is adavantageous to have a firm grasp of the anatomy of the normal ...

A case of symptomatic double coronary artery-pulmonary artery fistulae

open access: yesAnnals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2010
A 57-year-old lady presenting with angina was found to have multiple coronary arterio venous fistulae (CAVF) arising from both left and the right coronary arteries and draining into the pulmonary artery. She underwent successful surgical closure of these

Comparison of atrial arrhythmias and autonomic function parameters according to atrial septal defect closure techniques

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
BackgroundAtrial septal defects (ASDs) are associated with an increased risk of atrial arrhythmias due to right atrial dilation, electrical remodeling, and conduction abnormalities.
