pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...

Cell geometry and membrane protein crowding constrain Escherichia coli growth rate, overflow metabolism, respiration, and maintenance energy

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The physical dimensions and shape of bacterial cells define the surface area available to acquire nutrients and the volume available for synthesizing proteins and DNA. Here, we use computational systems biology to decode the importance of cell geometry as a major determinant of prokaryotic phenotype, including growth rate and metabolic efficiency. This

Surgical complications after robotic thyroidectomy for thyroid carcinoma: a single center experience with 3,000 patients

open access: yes, 2014
BACKGROUND: Robotic thyroidectomy (RT), a new gasless, transaxillary approach developed by the Yonsei University group in Seoul, Korea, eliminates the need for a cervical incision.

Can better surgical outcomes be obtained in the learning process of robotic rectal cancer surgery? A propensity score-matched comparison between learning phases

open access: yes, 2021
Background: Although studies of robotic rectal cancer surgery have demonstrated the effects of learning on operation time, comparisons have failed to demonstrate differences in clinicopathological outcomes between unadjusted learning phases.

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Phosphoinositides and inositol phosphates as molecular glues

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol phosphates (IPs) and phosphoinositides (PIPs) regulate diverse eukaryotic processes. Beyond recruiting signaling proteins or acting as structural cofactors, recent studies suggest they mediate protein–protein interactions as natural molecular glues.

The role of costal cartilage in musculoskeletal regeneration: A systematic review

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Orthopaedics
Purpose Musculoskeletal tissue regeneration remains a major clinical challenge due to the limited intrinsic healing capacity of cartilage, bone and interface tissues, as well as the complexity of recreating their hierarchical structure and mechanical ...

Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Stem cell differentiation is complex and difficult to control experimentally. This review introduces suitable computational modelling approaches that can support stem cell research, from mechanistic ODE and abstract models to multiscale and deep learning methods.

Surgical techniques for the management of a dislocated posterior chamber intraocular lens

open access: yes, 2007
Posterior chamber intraocular lens (PC-IOL) dislocation occurs due to suboptimal posterior capsule support. Subluxated PC-IOLs involve more extensive dislocation, generally with an open pupillary space, but with the IOL lodged in the anterior vitreous ...

Following-Up Micro-Rheological and Microcirculatory Alterations During the Early Wound Healing Phase of Local and Rotated Musculocutaneous Flaps in Rats

open access: yesLife
In reconstructive surgery, usage of different flaps is essential to cover tissue defects. Twisting, stretching or damaging the vascular pedicle may jeopardize the flaps’ viability.
