Fluorescence imaging is an indispensable tool to understand how biological networks operate in the complex environment of the living cell. Small-molecule fluorescent dyes offer many advantages including their high modularity, favorable photophysical proper ...

Wearable biosensors and smartphone applications can measure physiological variables over multiple days in free-living conditions. We measure food and drink ingestion, glucose dynamics, physical activity, heart rate (HR), and heart rate variability (HRV) in ...

Glycans play an essential role in numerous physiological and pathological processes of living organisms. Despite their significant biological relevance, glycobiology remains one of the least explored fields of biochemistry. The intrinsic isomeric complexit ...

Mitochondrial diseases are rare and severe conditions with debilitating symptoms. Biochemical defects in mitochondria however are common. The difference between these two frequencies is suspected to lie in the capability of the cells to adapt to the homeos ...

The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is a key hormonal system. In recent years, the functional analysis of the novel axis of the RAS (ACE2/Ang-(1-7)/Mas receptor) revealed that its activation can become pro-tective against several pathologies, including card ...

The nuclear membrane defines the boundaries that confine, protect and shape the genome. As such, its blebbing, ruptures and deformations are known to compromise the integrity of genetic material. Yet, drastic transitions of the nuclear membrane such as its ...

The protein kinase Akt/PKB participates in a great variety of processes, including translation, cell proliferation and survival, as well as malignant transformation and viral infection. In the last few years, novel Akt posttranslational modifications have ...

Electrochemical detection based on cyclodextrin supramolecular complexes is founded on the competitive binding between electroactive probes and target molecules. This limits their versatility to be used for sensing a broad range of metabolites. In this wor ...

Functionalizing metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) with amines is a commonly used strategy to enhance their performance in CO2 capture applications. As such, in this work, a two-step strategy to covalently functionalize NH2-containing MOFs with short chain po ...

In animals, growth is regulated by the complex interplay between paracrine and endocrine signals. When food is scarce, tissues compete for nutrients, leading to critical resource allocation and prioritization. Little is known about how the immune system ma ...

: Despite the essential role that glycans play in many biological processes, their isomeric com-plexity makes their structural determination partic-ularly challenging. Tandem mass spectrometry has played a central role in glycan analysis, and recent work h ...

Sub-cellular trace element quantifications of nano-heterogeneities in brain tissues offer unprecedented ways to explore at elemental level the interplay between cellular compartments in neurodegenerative pathologies. We designed a quasi-correlative method ...

Autophagy is a highly conserved process by which long-lived macromolecules, protein aggregates and dysfunctional/damaged organelles are delivered to lysosomes for degradation. Autophagy plays a crucial role in regulating protein quality control and cell ho ...

Herein, we report that the TGF beta superfamily receptor ALK7 is a suppressor of tumorigenesis and metastasis, as revealed by functional studies in mouse models of pancreatic neuroendocrine and lumina! breast cancer, complemented by experimental metastasis ...

Solute carriers of the glucose transporter (GLUT) family mediate the first step for cellular glucose usage. The upregulation of GLUTs has been reported in numerous cancer types as a result of perturbation of gene expression or protein relocalization or sta ...
