Attenuation of arsenic trioxide‐induced endothelial injury: unveiling the protective role of ginkgolic acid through inhibition of TRPM4 SUMOylation: Evidence from Raman cellular imaging

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Inhibiting the SUMOylation modification of TRPM4 can prevent the vascular endothelial damage caused by ATO. Inhibition of TRPM4 SUMOylation, either pharmacologically by GA or genetically by the K618R mutation, protects against ATO‐induced vascular endothelial damage.

Dwelling in a post‐fallout landscape: re‐shaping and sustaining life in a former evacuation zone in Fukushima Habiter après la catastrophe : redonner forme au monde et entretenir la vie dans une ancienne zone évacuée à Fukushima

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
This article explores the activities of daily life in a village neighbouring the TEPCO nuclear power plant in Fukushima. It argues that one of the potentials of taking a dwelling perspective – a phenomenological approach to living within the ecological and social environments – emerges most compellingly within a polluted landscape.

Linguistic Evidence Suggests that Xiōng‐nú and Huns Spoke the Same Paleo‐Siberian Language

open access: yesTransactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.
Abstract The Xiōng‐nú were a tribal confederation who dominated Inner Asia from the third century BC to the second century AD. Xiōng‐nú descendants later constituted the ethnic core of the European Huns. It has been argued that the Xiōng‐nú spoke an Iranian, Turkic, Mongolic or Yeniseian language, but the linguistic affiliation of the Xiōng‐nú and the ...

‘From the Fields Into the Bars’: The Story of Israel's First Transgender Novel, The Cut (1977)

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In 1977, an Israeli transgender woman, Judy Spotheim, published an autobiographical novel entitled The Cut. It describes the emergence of a trans community in the commercial‐sex areas of Tel Aviv‐Jaffa, hoping to humanise trans women (coccinelles). This article is the first to study the novel and present a biography of Spotheim.

Repetitive Grasping After Stroke Assisted by Functional Electrical Stimulation

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
To understand whether FES can be useful in assisting functional grasping after stroke, the following requirements were investigated: (i) producing sufficient force, (ii) sustaining this force for an adequate duration, (iii) successfully releasing the object, and (iv) monitoring the onset of muscle fatigue during repetitive grasping.

TNF‐α partially modulates the endothelial dysfunction during the acute phase of Trypanosoma cruzi infection

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Whereas the effects of Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi) infection are well‐characterised in the heart, its impact on the vasculature has received little attention. In this study, we investigated the effects of acute and chronic T. cruzi infection on vascular responsiveness and the underlying mechanisms.

The return of metabolism: biochemistry and physiology of glycolysis

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glycolysis is a fundamental metabolic pathway central to the bioenergetics and physiology of virtually all living organisms. In this comprehensive review, we explore the intricate biochemical principles and evolutionary origins of glycolytic pathways, from the classical Embden–Meyerhof–Parnas (EMP) pathway in humans to various prokaryotic and ...

From plant to fabric: Environmental opportunities associated with annatto dye for sustainable development in the textile industry

open access: yesColoration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Natural dyes are compounds that occur naturally in several organisms and are classified based on chemical structure and application method. The literature cites several natural dyes used in industrial transformation processes. Annatto dye is used in the food industry, and its biological pigment is extracted from the annatto seed. However, this

OSA Initiates Histone Lactylation That Drives PDE4B/FUS/AGT Axis to Pulmonary Hypertension

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
This study illustrates how chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) leads to hypertension via increased oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction in pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs), causing glycolytic dysregulation. Lactate accumulation enhances histone lactylation, upregulating phosphodiesterase 4B (PDE4B),

A Bathroom of One's Own: Intimacies of Austerity and Austerities of Intimacy in Barbara Pym's Fiction

open access: yesCritical Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract ‘I have to share a bathroom’, I had so often murmured, almost with shame, as if I personally had been found unworthy of a bathroom of my own. Barbara Pym, Excellent Women (1952) For a single woman of a certain age, living alone in postwar London, austerity was more than a set of political and economic imperatives.
