Enhancing Collagen Biosynthesis in Mammalian Cells Through Hypoxia-Mimetic Prolyl Hydroxylase Inhibition

This study inhibits prolyl hydroxylase to enhance collagen type I production in mouse cells under normoxia, achieving a 29-fold increase.

A fusion Cell-Permeable C16orf74 Peptide Selectively Disrupts Calcineurin-NFAT Interaction and Inhibits T-cell Activation Without Cytotoxicity

The paper develops cell-permeable C16orf74 peptides that disrupt Calcineurin-NFAT interaction, inhibit T-cell activation, and show minimal cytotoxicity compared to Cyclosporine A.

Dual Immune Checkpoint and Cytokine Receptor Modulation by an Engineered Human CTLA-4/IL-10 Bispecific Fusion Protein

This paper describes the engineering of a bispecific fusion protein combining CTLA-4 and IL-10 to modulate immune checkpoints and cytokine receptors, showing T cell-inhibitory effects in vitro.

Real-Time Sensing of Food Spoilage Using a Recombinant mVenus-Tolles FRET pH Biosensor

This paper evaluates a FRET-based biosensor for real-time pH monitoring as an indicator of food spoilage, showing pH-responsive signals in both buffer solutions and chickpea paste.

Psoriasin inhibits microbial growth in food by metal sequestering
