A Multi‐Analytical Approach for the Compositional Characterization and Chronological Discrimination of Benin (Nigeria) Metal Sculptures

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents a multi‐analytical archaeometric approach for the compositional characterization and chronological discrimination of Benin metal sculptures in relation to the 1897 Punitive Expedition. The methodology integrates elemental composition (XRF and ICP), stable lead isotope ratios (MC‐ICP‐MS) for alloy system characterization ...

The nitty‐gritty of vascular permeability in cancer: targeting blood endothelium to control metastases

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Blood vascular permeability is a hallmark of cancer and acts as an active driver of metastatic dissemination. Metastasis accounts for the vast majority of cancer deaths, yet most work has focussed on tumour‐intrinsic traits and angiogenesis, while the specific contribution of endothelial barrier regulation to intravasation and extravasation remains ...

Molecular dynamics simulations and fluorescence spectroscopy suggest reduced tryptophan‐to‐heme energy transfer facilitates lignin degradation in ClassII peroxidases

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
In lignin peroxidase and versatile peroxidase, low FRET from buried Trp to heme promotes long‐range electron transfer (LRET) from substrate to heme. This efficient electron flow is facilitated by reduced FRET competition. This mechanism likely evolved to enable the effective degradation of bulky, high‐redox‐potential lignin that cannot reach the enzyme'

Distinct Microbiota and Functional Pathway Profiles Define Success and Failure in Regenerative Endodontic Treatment

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To characterize the intracanal microbiota and identify key microbial taxa and functional pathways associated with regenerative endodontic treatment (RET) outcomes. Methodology In this observational cohort study, 196 samples were collected at five time points from external tooth surfaces (T1, T4) and root canals (T2, T3, T5).

Distinct EEG Features and Sleep/Wake Behaviour Predict Anxiety Phenotypes in Mice

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Preoperative anxiety is a prevalent clinical problem linked to adverse surgical outcomes, including elevated pain, prolonged hospital stays and increased risk of postoperative delirium. Current assessments rely heavily on subjective measures, necessitating objective biomarkers.

Differential intestinal injury and unchanged systemic inflammatory responses to leg and whole‐body passive hyperthermia in healthy humans

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Hyperthermia can cause intestinal injury, facilitating endotoxin translocation and an inflammatory response that has been associated with heat illness. However, the potential occurrence of these responses has been incompletely reported during passive hyperthermia, and the independent effect of hyperthermia is equivocal.
