From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

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.

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Selecting effective plant species for the phytoremediation of persistent organic pollutants and multielement contaminated fibrous sediments

open access: yesEnvironmental Sciences Europe
Background Wastewater discharges from the old pulp and paper industry led to the accumulation of contaminated wood pulping fibers and debris—referred to as fiberbanks (FB)—in the Baltic Sea and freshwater bodies across Sweden and other pulp-producing ...

Investigation through questionnaires of the impact of tourist flows on environmental degradation: Case study in the municipality of Mykonos, Greece [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
This paper deals with the environmental impacts of tourism when tourism flows exceed the carrying capacity of a touristic destination by focusing on the island of Mykonos, which, in recent years, has become the most attractive and popular tourist ...

Development of a Disposable Single-Nozzle Printhead for 3D Bioprinting of Continuous Multi-Material Constructs

open access: yesMicromachines, 2020
Fabricating multi-cell constructs in complex geometries is essential in the field of tissue engineering, and three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting is widely used for this purpose. To enhance the biological and mechanical integrity of the printed constructs,

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

A Standard Design Process for Sustainable Design

open access: yesProcedia Computer Science, 2015
AbstractThis exploratory research examined the degree of adoption and impact of the concepts of Building Information Model (BIM), Integrated Project Delivery (IPD), Integrated Design Process (IDP) and Building Energy Simulation (BES) on the design processes of advanced architectural firms when executing sustainable design. Six offices identified by the

Decoding the dynamic extracellular matrix in cancer—3D models and bioscaffolds rewire the rules of tumor progression

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cancer progression is regulated by the dynamic matrix code of the tumor microenvironment, which influences cellular behavior and disease development. Importantly, matrix remodeling in three‐dimensional cancer models more accurately reflects in vivo conditions compared to conventional two‐dimensional systems.
