Epithelial cells cultured within collagen and laminin gels proliferate to form hollow and polarized spherical structures, recapitulating the formation of a rudimentary epithelial organ. However, the contributions of extracellular matrix (ECM) biochemical and biophysical properties to morphogenesis are poorly understood because of uncontrolled presentation of multiple adhesive ligands, limited control over mechanical properties, and lot-to-lot compositional variability in these natural ECMs. We engineered synthetic ECM-mimetic hydrogels with independent control over adhesive ligand density, mec

Abstract:
The formation and deposition of fibrils derived from immunglobulin light chains is a hallmark of systemic AL amyloidosis. A particularly remarkable feature of the disease is the diversity and complexity in pathophysiology and clinical manifestations. This is related to the variability of immunoglobulins, as virtually every patient has a variety of mutations resulting in their own unique AL protein and thus a unique fibril deposited in the body. Here, I review recent biochemical and biophysical studies that have expanded our knowledge on how versatile the structure of AL fibrils in patients is

Abstract:
Significance The awareness of the individuals’ biological status is critical for creating interactive environments. Accordingly, we devised a multimodal cryptographic bio-human–machine interface (CB-HMI), which seamlessly translates touch-based entries into encrypted biochemical, biophysical, and biometric indices (i.e., circulating biomarkers levels, heart rate, oxygen saturation level, and fingerprint pattern). As its central component, the CB-HMI features thin hydrogel-coated chemical sensors and a signal interpretation framework to access/interpret biochemical indices, bypassing the challe

Abstract:
Abstract Fruit growth is a complex mechanism resulting from biochemical and biophysical events leading water and dry matter to accumulate in the fruit tissues. Understanding how fruits choose their growth strategies can help growers optimizing their resource management for a more sustainable production and a higher fruit quality. This paper compares the growth strategies adopted by different fruit crops, at different times during the season and relates their fruit surface conductance to key physiological parameters for fruit growth such as phloem and xylem inflows as well transpiration losses.

Abstract:
Arrestins are essential proteins for the regulation of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). They mediate GPCR desensitization after the activated receptor has been phosphorylated by G protein receptor kinases (GRKs). In addition, GPCR-arrestin interactions may trigger signaling pathways that are distinct and independent from G proteins. The non-visual GPCRs encompass hundreds of receptors with varying phosphorylation patterns and amino acid sequences, which are regulated by only two human non-visual arrestin isoforms. This review describes recent findings on GPCR-arrestin complexes, obtained b

AbstractOver the past decades, human activities have directly or indirectly driven the land surface changes in eastern China. These anthropogenic forcings could trigger biochemical feedback and alter the surface biophysical properties, thus affecting local temperature. However, the latter is recognized as the “noise” and ignored when assessing historical or future climate. Here, we adopt the “observation minus reanalysis” (OMR) method to isolate the biophysical temperature footprint of multiple surface changes in eastern China over 2001–2018, using remote sensing land surface temperature and r

SummaryThe kinetic properties of Rubisco, the most important carbon‐fixing enzyme, have been assessed in a small fraction of the estimated existing biodiversity of photosynthetic organisms. Until recently, one of the most significant gaps of knowledge in Rubisco kinetics was marine macrophytes, an ecologically relevant group including brown (Ochrophyta), red (Rhodophyta) and green (Chlorophyta) macroalgae and seagrasses (Streptophyta). These organisms express various Rubisco types and predominantly possess CO2‐concentrating mechanisms (CCMs), which facilitate the use of bicarbonate for photosy

Marine diatoms, the most successful photoautotrophs in the ocean, efficiently sequester a significant part of atmospheric CO2 to the ocean interior through their participation in the biological carbon pump. However, it is poorly understood how marine diatoms fix such a considerable amount of CO2, which is vital information toward modeling their response to future CO2 levels. The Tara Oceans expeditions generated molecular data coupled with in situ biogeochemical measurements across the main ocean regions, and thus provides a framework to compare diatom genetic and transcriptional flexibility u

These routine procedures should also apply to samples intended for Extracellular Vesicles (EVs) analysis.

His GF is defined as the maximum glucose value minus the minimum glucose value within a day. The definition of “eAG” is the mean value of glucose data that is similar to HbA1C which is useful in diabetes control. Moreover, the glucose excursion or GF has noticeable influences on various diabetes complications. During the period of 1,218 days
