Structure-specific Mini-Prion Model for Alzheimer's Disease Tau Fibrils

The paper designs synthetic tau fibrils that mimic AD and CTE structures, showing strong seeding ability and catalytic effects in vitro and in cells.

Influence of High-Fat Diet and Sex on Connective Tissue in Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

This study investigates how a high-fat diet and sex influence SSCT thickening and fibrosis in a rabbit model of carpal tunnel syndrome, finding sex-dependent gene expression changes and higher CTS incidence in men under metabolic stress.

Label-free ghost cytometry for manufacturing of cell therapy products

This paper introduces label-free ghost cytometry (LF-GC) for cell therapy manufacturing, showing it can quantify cell count, viability, and identify cell subsets and impurities without staining.

A comprehensive list of the replication promoters of Bunyavirales reveals a unique promoter structure in Nairoviridae differing from other virus families

The paper identifies a unique GC-rich promoter structure in Nairoviridae, distinguishing it from other Bunyavirales families, and provides a comprehensive list of replication promoters.

Frequency of a nucleotide overhang at the 5' end of hemorrhagic fever mammarenavirus genomes in public sequence data

The paper examines the frequency of a 5' guanine overhang in mammarenavirus genomes and links it to their pathogenicity.

Acoustic light-sheet microscopy

Acoustic light-sheet microscopy overcomes the trade-off between field-of-view and axial resolution in light-sheet microscopy by guiding light through acoustic pulses.

Age-related Cellular and Microstructural Changes in the Rotator Cuff Enthesis

This study examines age-related cellular changes in the rotator cuff enthesis of rats, finding increased mineralization and reduced tenogenic and chondrogenic potential in aged cells.

Eldecalcitol is more effective for promoting osteogenesis than alfacalcidol in Cyp27b1-knockout Mice

This study compares the osteogenic effects of eldecalcitol and alfacalcidol in Cyp27b1-knockout mice, finding that eldecalcitol more effectively promotes bone calcification and cancellous bone density.
