Collagen VII is an essential anchoring protein in the basement membrane zone, maintaining the attachment of stratified and pseudostratified epithelia to the underlying interstitial matrix. However, collagen VII is largely unexplored in normal lungs and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a disease characterized by excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) and aberrant re-epithelializat
High latitude mires are key ecosystems in the context of climate change since they store large amounts of carbon while constituting an important natural source of methane (CH4). However, while a growing number of studies have investigated methane fluxes (FCH4) at the plot- (~1 m2) and ecosystem-scale (~0.1–0.5 km2) across the boreal biome, variations of FCH4 magnitudes and drivers at the mesoscale
Aims Alternative splicing of Titin (TTN) I-band exons produce protein isoforms with variable size and elasticity, but the mechanisms whereby TTN splice factors regulate exon usage and thereby determining cardiomyocyte passive stiffness and diastolic function, is not well understood. Non-coding RNA transcripts from the antisense strand of protein-coding genes have been shown to regulate alternative
The future role of boreal forests in the global carbon cycle is uncertain given the rapid climate change in high latitudes. At the landscape scale, heterogeneity in stand age and land cover, contributions from terrestrial and aquatic fluxes, and harvest export may create complex carbon cycle-climate interactions. However, the integrated response of the net landscape carbon balance (NLCB) to inter-
Deposition of phosphorus (P) is important for the nutrient supply to forests and open land but also contributes to the eutrophication of surface waters. Deposition to open land can be measured as bulk deposition while deposition to forests cannot be measured directly, due to internal circulation of P within forest canopies. This study aimed to quantify the total deposition of P to open land and fo
Preclinical studies suggest that taurine may exert neuroprotective effects. However, its relevance to dementia risk in human populations remains unclear. We investigated the associations between mid-life dietary taurine intake, circulating taurine concentrations, and the risk of late-life all-cause dementia, Alzheimer's disease (AD), and vascular dementia (VaD) in a large prospective cohort. This
AIMS: Carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125), a mucin produced by serosal cells in response to mechanical and inflammatory stimuli, has emerged as an important biomarker to guide risk stratification in heart failure (HF). The prognostic value of CA125 in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients is less explored.METHODS: In a cohort of 524 ACS patients (73% males, mean age 67 ± 12 years), we assessed the a
This essay investigates the need for prioritizing resilience and mindfulness in academia and elaborated on a pragmatic approach to how we as scholars can improve our well-being collectively in today’s demanding academic environment.
Introduction: Little is known of the processes that trigger neutrophil activation in the joint of patients with oligoarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (oJIA), and if synovial fibroblasts (S-Fib) play an important role in the activation. Therefore, we aimed to investigate whether S-Fib derived from oJIA patients drive neutrophil activation. Methods: Synovial fluid (SF) was collected from pati
Toxicological testing in mice was conducted on PM2.5 particles from stressed burning of two types of candles (white and blue) and on PM2.5 collected indoor and outdoor of fifteen occupied homes in southern Sweden. As an indicator of toxicity, the ability to generate Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) was also assessed for all pooled samples: candle white, candle blue, indoor, and outdoor. Higher toxici
Many forms of bioimage analysis involve the detection of objects and their outlines. In the context of microscopy-based high-throughput drug and genomic screening and even in smaller scale microscopy experiments, the objects that most often need to be detected are cells. In order to develop and benchmark algorithms and neural networks that can perform this task, high-quality datasets with annotate
Introduction Mechanical ventilation can be monitored by analysing particles in exhaled air as measured by particle flow rate (PFR). This could be a potential method of detecting ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) before changes in conventional parameters can be detected. The aim of this study was to investigate PFR during different ventilation modes in patients without lung pathology. Method A
On-demand droplet generation from a continuously flowing stream of aqueous phase has profound applications in dropletbased microfluidics for rare event encapsulation studies. Here, we present acoustic relocation-based droplet generation from co-flowing immiscible fluids in an on-demand manner using bulk acoustic wave (BAW). After on-demand droplet generation, droplets are isolated using the same a
Alzheimer's disease is a neurodegenerative condition which involves heavy neuronal cell death linked to oligomers formed during the aggregation process of the amyloid β peptide 42 (Aβ42). The aggregation of Aβ42 involves both primary and secondary nucleation. Secondary nucleation dominates the generation of oligomers and involves the formation of new aggregates from monomers on catalytic fibril su
Climate change is primarily driven by anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases. Reducing these emissions globally requires a massive effort at the individual, city, and national scales. Urban areas are hotspots of anthropogenic emissions, given the high density of human-based activities, and clarity on the variations of emissions in these areas will enable effective targeted reduction plans. Ho
Previous studies suggest an increased risk of new-onset type 2 diabetes (T2D) following SARS-CoV-2 infection, which may be subject to detection bias from increased health care contacts among the infected. We aimed to assess the causal effect of SARS-CoV-2 infection on new-onset T2D using a test-negative design and negative control outcomes. We included all individuals aged ≥ 18 years registered in
