RRAGD p.(Ser76Leu) Variant Causes Dysregulated Expression of Muscle Development and Cytoskeleton Genes in Cardiomyocytes. [PDF]

open access: yesFASEB J
Under normal conditions, RagD and mTORC1 respond to amino acid changes. Upon stimulation, active mTORC1 phosphorylates S6K, 4E‐BP1, and TFEB. In response to starvation, mTORC1 is inactive. Our data indicate that the RRAGD p.(Ser76Leu) variant maintains the phosphorylation of mTORC1 targets during starvation in T‐REx HeLa cells.

The Negative Impact of a Non-Therapeutic Laparotomy in Patients With Inoperable Colorectal Peritoneal Metastases. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Surg Oncol
ABSTRACT Background The peritoneum is the third most prevalent location for metastases of colorectal cancer. In patients with resectable disease, cytoreductive surgery combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS‐HIPEC) is the preferred treatment in the Netherlands, achieving median overall survival (OS) of 36–42 months. However, during

Single-Molecule Imaging and Spectroscopy Enables Quantification of Location-Dependent Light-Matter Interactions on Nanoantennas. [PDF]

open access: yesSmall Sci
The fluorescence intensity as well as the spectral shape of the emission of single dye molecules strongly depend on the molecules’ exact position relative to plasmonic nanoparticles in hybrid systems. By point‐spread function modification analysis, the vertical binding location of single fluorophores on gold nanocones is obtained and correlated to both
