Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Development of the Relationships Among Dynamic Balance Control, Inter-limb Coordination, and Torso Coordination During Gait in Children Aged 3–10 Years

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2021
Knowledge about the developmental process of dynamic balance control comprised of upper arms and upper legs coordination and trunk and pelvis twist coordination is important to advance effective balance assessment for abnormal development.

Thioether-Linked Azobenzene-Based Liquid Crystal Dimers Exhibiting the Twist-Bend Nematic Phase over a Wide Temperature Range

, 2020
Two homologous series of sulfur-containing thioether-linked 4-cyanoazobenzene-based liquid crystal (LC) dimers were developed: a symmetric series based on 4-cyanoazobenzene arms [(CN)AzoSnSAzo(CN)] and a non-symmetric series based on 4-cyanoazobenzene ...

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

COMP–PMEPA1 axis promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in breast cancer cells

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study reveals that cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in breast cancer. We identify PMEPA1 (protein TMEPAI) as a novel COMP‐binding partner that mediates EMT via binding to the TSP domains of COMP, establishing the COMP–PMEPA1 axis as a key EMT driver in breast cancer.

Dispersion Analysis of Periodically Loaded Transmission Lines with Twist Symmetry Using the Mode-Matching Technique

Applied Sciences, 2020
A mode-matching formulation is presented and used to analyze the dispersion properties of twist-symmetric transmission lines. The structures are coaxial lines periodically loaded with infinitely thin screens, which are rotated with respect to each other ...

Tunable Electronic Structure in Twisted Bilayer WTe2

Frontiers in Physics, 2022
The moiré pattern restricts the electronic states of transition metal bilayers, thus extending the concept of the magic angle found in twisted bilayer graphene to semiconductors.

EDNRB‐dependent endothelin signaling reduces proliferation and promotes proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition in gliomas

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Glioma cells mainly express the endothelin receptor EDNRB, while EDNRA is restricted to a perivascular tumor subpopulation. Endothelin signaling reduces glioma cell proliferation while promoting migration and a proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition associated with poor prognosis. This pathway activates Ca2+, K+, ERK, and STAT3 signalings and is regulated
