CsPbBr (CPB) perovskite has demonstrated unique advantages as a photoelectric material. However, its stability and optoelectronic properties exhibit significantly susceptibility to environmental conditions during practical applications. Additionally, the synthesis of CPB often involves complex procedures and stringent requirements for the experimental environment, resulting in low yield.

Article Synopsis
  • GLP-1 and glucose work together to enhance the function of pancreatic β-cells, improving both cell survival and insulin secretion.
  • A comprehensive study identified over 25,000 phosphorylation sites in β-cell proteins, revealing new kinases influenced by glucose and GLP-1.
  • The research showed that both molecules regulate various steps in the insulin secretion pathway, demonstrating their synergistic effects on pancreatic β-cell function.

As central tissue of glucose homeostasis, islet has been an important focus of diabetes research. Phosphorylation plays pivotal roles in islet function, especially in islet glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. A systematic view on how phosphorylation networks were coordinately regulated in this process remains lacking, partially due to the limited amount of islets from an individual for a phosphoproteomic analysis.

Article Synopsis
  • Titanium dioxide (TiO(2)) is an effective method for enriching phosphopeptides, with recent updates on sample loading and elution techniques.
  • The study highlights that the ratio of peptides to TiO(2) beads significantly impacts enrichment, with an optimal ratio of 1:2 to 1:8 for best results, suggesting pre-experiments for different samples.
  • Interestingly, using fewer beads than ideal can facilitate the identification of more multiphosphorylated peptides through consecutive incubations, making this an alternative strategy for both enrichment and fractionation.

Reversible phosphorylation of proteins is an important process modulating cellular activities from upstream, which mainly involves sequential phosphorylation of signaling molecules, to downstream where phosphorylation of transcription factors regulates gene expression. In this study, we combined quantitative labeling with multidimensional liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry to monitor the proteome and phosphoproteome changes in the initial period of adipocyte differentiation. The phosphorylation level of a specific protein may be regulated by a kinase or phosphatase without involvement of gene expression or as a phenomenon that accompanies the alteration of its gene expression.
