The Use of Dietary Additives in Fish Stress Mitigation: Comparative Endocrine and Physiological Responses [PDF]
In the last years, studies on stress attenuation in fish have progressively grown. This is mainly due to the interest of institutions, producers, aquarists and consumers in improving the welfare of farmed fish.

Novel Bioconjugate Materials: Synthesis, Characterization and Medical Applications
This review discusses the bioconjugation of novel materials grouped under “biological”, “hybrid” and “synthetic” categories. Medical applications ranging from cancer therapy and diagnostics to optogenetics and tissue engineering are explored, and conjugation trends are highlighted as a general guide. The review concludes with a comparison of techniques

The crystal structure of Pneumolysin at 2.0 Å resolution reveals the molecular packing of the pre-pore complex [PDF]
Pneumolysin is a cholesterol-dependent cytolysin (CDC) and virulence factor of Streptococcus pneumoniae. It kills cells by forming pores assembled from oligomeric rings in cholesterol-containing membranes.

Differential Phase Contrast Imaging to Predict MSC Immune Function
This work employs quantitative differential phase contrast (qDPC) imaging technique to non‐invasively extract morphological features from live Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs) for single cell prediction on cell immunomodulatory capacity. This work establishes a foundation for scalable, non‐destructive monitoring of MSCs immunomodulatory capacity ...

Tryptophan Metabolism in Alcoholism [PDF]
Studies of tryptophan (Trp) metabolism in relation to the serotonin status in alcoholism are of 2 types: (1) those related to the pharmacological effects of ethanol; (2) those concerning the serotonin status in the absence of alcohol intake. In experimental animals, acute and chronic ethanol administration and subsequent withdrawal exert a variety of ...

Protease‐degradable hydrogels mimic dynamic cell‐matrix interactions, but controlling hydrogel degradation is a challenge. We screen libraries of peptides to identify sequences that are primarily degraded by membrane‐localized proteases. Crosslinking hydrogels with these peptides enables cell to spread and migrate while reducing matrix degradation ...

Tryptophan Metabolism in Inflammaging: From Biomarker to Therapeutic Target
Inflammation aims to restore tissue homeostasis after injury or infection. Age-related decline of tissue homeostasis causes a physiological low-grade chronic inflammatory phenotype known as inflammaging that is involved in many age-related diseases ...

IDO Expression in Cancer: Different Compartment, Different Functionality?
Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) is a cytosolic haem-containing enzyme involved in the degradation of tryptophan to kynurenine. Although initially thought to be solely implicated in the modulation of innate immune responses during infection ...
