Degradomics for large‐scale mechanistic insights on proteases and proteolysis in human health
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Proteolysis has an important role in human disease but remains relatively unexplored. Degradomics, the uncovering of proteolysis in tissues, cells, and proteins, uses mass spectrometry‐based terminomics to identify protein termini occurring therein (forward degradomics) and to define the actions of proteases (reverse degradomics).

Water, water, every where—the advent of hydrated pili structure
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Protein structure is defined by its surrounding water. Naturally, this is also true for the gigantic protein filaments that pathogenic bacteria use to attach to and colonize their host cells. Structures of these filaments for which water can be identified with high confidence have stayed elusive for the longest time.

Principles of retinal drug delivery from within the vitreous
, 2011 In recent years, vitreous humour, a connective tissue at the centre of the eye, emerged as a preferred reservoir for back of the eye drug delivery. Although vitreous humour is largely composed of water (>99%), its physical form can range from a firm gel ...

Proteolytic remodelling of the extracellular matrix by pericytes
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Pericytes are specialised perivascular cells intimately connected with endothelial cells and essential for the maintenance of vascular beds. They contribute to the formation and remodelling of the extracellular matrix by actively secreting proteases and protease inhibitors.

, 2016 Vitreoretinal pathologies are the second leading cause of blindness worldwide. They can be caused by age-related changes in vitreous humour (VH) or as a consequence of some diseases that lead to rheological, biochemical and structural rearrangements.

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.Combining oral sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors with reduced intravitreal injections of anti‐vascular endothelial growth factor showed potential efficacy for mild diabetic macular edema. ABSTRACT Aims To investigate the potential of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) as a less invasive treatment option for mild diabetic macular

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.Abstract Cryo‐Focused Ion Beam Scanning Electron Microscopy (cryoFIB‐SEM) using samples fixed by high‐pressure freezing uniquely enables high‐resolution cryo‐volume Electron Microscope (cvEM) images of cell ultrastructure to be obtained from whole cells and complex tissues in their near native state. As the freezing process also preserves fluorescence,

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.Using microscopy and 3D confocal imaging on seven cadaveric eyes, we identified sympathetic nerves closely associated with β₂‐adrenergic receptor‐expressing macrophages in the human ciliary body (CB). These findings suggest a sympathetic‐macrophage neuroimmune link in the CB, potentially influencing ocular inflammation and degeneration, warranting ...
