Ionizing radiation induces bidirectional transcriptomic reprogramming and dynamic NOS2/TREM2 regulation in triple-negative breast cancer cells.

Ionizing radiation was associated with broad bidirectional transcriptional remodeling in 4T1 cells, involving immune-, inflammatory-, and interferon-related signatures together with reduced representation of cell-cycle- and DNA-repair-related gene sets.

A Fast Method to Quantify Free and Esterified Cholesterol in Human Plasma and Disease Models.

This method takes advantage of the commonly observed, yet often undesired, in-source fragmentation of cholesteryl esters during electrospray ionization (ESI) to analyse cholesterol forms free and esterified in a single experiment, utilizing supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) coupled with high-resolution mass spec...

Molecular Characterisation of a Putative Virulence Factor LIC10280 from Leptospira interrogans in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Leptospirosis, a widespread zoonotic disease caused by Leptospira interrogans, poses a major public health challenge, particularly in tropical regions. Despite progress in genomic studies, many putative virulence factors (VFs) remain uncharacterized. This study focuses on LIC10280, a conserved hypothetical protein iden...

Intramolecularly quenched fluorogens enable multispectral activation with a fluorescein-targeting single-chain variable fragment.

Fluorogen-activating proteins enable low-background fluorescence imaging by inducing emission only upon fluorogen binding. However, spectral diversification often involves coordinated optimization of fluorogens and their protein partners, while compatibility with structurally diverse fluorophore scaffolds remains limit...

Screening sensitive testing endpoints for Cr(VI) responses in earthworms using cross-species cumulative distributions.

Cr(VI) is a priority soil contaminant, yet current earthworm toxicity assessments still rely largely on single-species apical endpoints. In this study, we systematically compared the sensitivity of 12 earthworm species, representing epigeic, endogeic and anecic life forms, to Cr(VI) using four response indicators spann...

Consensus design and in silico screening of GH42 β-galactosidase for enhanced catalytic hydrolysis of whey lactose.

This study addresses a major bottleneck in dairy waste management by engineering a highly efficient, thermophilic enzyme for lactose hydrolysis, transforming the cheese manufacturing by-product whey into a high-value resource. While traditional glycoside hydrolase family 2 (GH2) enzymes suffer from poor industrial ther...
