A personal 360° view of applications of ‘biomimetic’ molecular recognition

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract Molecular recognition between biological molecules has formed the basis for innumerable applications in biotechnology for the last seven decades or so. Techniques such as affinity chromatography, solid‐phase and aqueous two‐phase extraction, affinity precipitation, biomimetic catalytic systems, biosensors and molecular imprinting all exploit ...

Predictive Value of Nutrition Indices in Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma Patients Treated With Lenvatinib

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The prognostic nutritional index (PNI) and geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) are simple markers that reflect immune and nutritional status. This retrospective study evaluated their prognostic significance in 276 patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who received first‐line lenvatinib. PNI and GNRI were calculated based on

From Plot to Block: Participatory Land Use for Climate‐Resilient Detached Housing in Finland

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how urban planning in Finland is adapting to climate change, focusing on the practical challenges planners face in single‐family housing areas. It draws on participatory workshops with municipal planners in Pori and Joensuu, where three planning tools—green factor metrics, impermeable surface limits, and the 3–30‐300 ...

Five‐Year Unified Risk Prediction Model for Gastric and Esophageal Cancer Based on Nationwide Health Check‐Up Data in Japan: J‐GESS Score

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aim In Japan, gastric cancer (GC) and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) account for nearly all fatal upper gastrointestinal malignancies. A unified model that simultaneously predicts the incidence of these two cancers could help optimize endoscopic screening and postindex surveillance strategies.

Coupling of both a transactivation module and a double‐stranded DNA‐binding domain boosts Cas12i3 variant‐based cytosine and adenine editing in plants

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Fusions of a transactivation module and a double‐stranded DNA‐binding domain produced effective Cas12i3 variant‐based cytosine and adenine base editors, with improved C‐to‐T and A‐to‐G base editing efficiency and expanded editing window. Generated herbicide‐resistant rice germplasm by using these base editors demonstrates their potential for precise ...
