Inequality in prevalence of unmedicated hypertension or diabetes among older Filipinos: analysis of nationally representative survey data

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiology. Cardiovascular Risk and Prevention
Background: Public clinics in the Philippines provide free anti-hypertensive and anti-diabetic medications, removing the price barrier to accessing effective treatments.

Efficient Algorithms for Electrostatic Interactions Including Dielectric Contrasts

open access: yesEntropy, 2013
Coarse-grained models of soft matter are usually combined with implicit solvent models that take the electrostatic polarizability into account via a dielectric background. In biophysical or nanoscale simulations that include water, this constant can vary

An epithelial GPR35 isoform supports tumor‐associated transcriptional and metabolic phenotypes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
GPR35 generates two functionally distinct isoforms with previously unresolved roles. GPR35‐short mediates immune‐cell chemotaxis, while GPR35‐long is enriched in colorectal cancer epithelium, where it supports increased metabolism, proliferation, and tumor‐associated transcriptional programs.

Peripheral lysosomes recruit PLEKHG3 to focal adhesions and restrain protrusion dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proximity‐dependent labeling at the LAMTOR complex revealed the Rho GEF PLEKHG3 as a lysosome‐proximal protein directing the study toward the influence of lysosome positioning on actin dynamics and cell motility. We show that PLEKHG3 colocalizes with lysosomes at focal adhesion sites and observe that forced peripheral dispersion of lysosomes hinders ...

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Consumer Protection under Directive 2015/2366 on Payment Services in the Internal Market – Selected Issues

open access: yesZeszyty Naukowe Uniwersytetu Ekonomicznego w Krakowie, 2018
Directive 2007/64 on payment services (PSD 1) introduced protection for consumers of payment services. First and foremost, the consumer should receive the basic information required by law before and after the execution of a payment.

Emerging experimental and computational methods for studying redox‐regulated structural transitions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Redox reactions can reshape proteins and alter how they behave in cells, with important consequences for health and disease. This review explores emerging experimental and computational approaches for discovering these redox‐sensitive protein switches, revealing their structural effects, and predicting their behavior, opening new opportunities to ...

Translophagy—A potential link between autophagy impairment and translational errors

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neurodegenerative diseases are characterised by the accumulation of abnormal proteins and protein aggregates, but their origin often remains unknown. We propose that selective autophagy removes damaged protein‐making machinery, preventing errors during protein synthesis.

Appropriateness of User Fees for Reproductive Health in Malawi

open access: yes, 2004
The introduction of cost-sharing strategies, such as user-fees, for health care in developing countries has received increasing attention due to declining Government expenditure on health and reduced donor funding.
