Structural biology of ferritin nanocages
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Maternal deaths and mortality due to a maternal underlying cause of death [PDF]
Ao mensurar-se mortalidade materna, é necessário distinguir ' mortes por causas maternas' e 'mortes maternas' Para a Organização Mundial da Saúde-OMS-,mortes maternas são as que ocorrem na gestação, no parto e até 42 dias após o parto; e mortes por ...

We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Prevalence, underlying causes, and preventability of sepsis-associated mortality in US acute care hospitals [PDF]
Importance: Sepsis is present in many hospitalizations that culminate in death. The contribution of sepsis to these deaths, and the extent to which they are preventable, is unknown.

Inhibition of NAADP signalling on reperfusion protects the heart by preventing lethal calcium oscillations via two-pore channel 1 and opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore [PDF]
Aims In the heart, a period of ischaemia followed by reperfusion evokes powerful cytosolic Ca2+ oscillations that can cause lethal cell injury. These signals represent attractive cardioprotective targets, but the underlying mechanisms of genesis are ill ...

Mechanisms of IgE‐mediated food allergy and the role of allergen‐specific B cells
Food allergy arises when allergen‐specific B cells preferentially produce immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies against harmless foods. This article explains the mechanisms driving IgE‐mediated reactions, highlights the central role of these B cells, and discusses how natural tolerance (NT) and oral immunotherapy (OIT) can reshape allergic immune responses.

Intérêt de l’analyse des causes multiples dans l’étude de la mortalité aux grands âges : l’exemple français [PDF]
En France, la plus grande part des décès se produit aux âges élevés et même très élevés. Le décès est alors souvent l’aboutissement d’un processus complexe qui met en jeu plusieurs affections.

Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

The pattern of underlying cause of death in patients with inflammatory bowel disease in England: a record linkage study [PDF]
Background and Aims: Numerous studies have established that mortality risk in IBD patients is higher than the general population, but the causes of death have seldom been examined. We aimed to describe causes of death in IBD. Methods: A matched cohort
