Anti-breast cancer effects of dairy protein active peptides, dairy products, and dairy protein-based nanoparticles.

Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed and fatal cancer among women worldwide. Dairy protein-derived peptides and dairy products are important parts of the daily human diet and have shown promising activities in suppressing the proliferation, migration, and invasion of breast cancer cells, both and . Most of the review literature employs meta-analysis methods to explore the association between dairy intake and breast cancer risk.

Gaps in the wall of a perivascular space act as valves to produce a directed flow of cerebrospinal fluid: a hoop-stress model.

The flow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) along perivascular spaces (PVSs) is an important part of the brain's system for clearing metabolic waste. Astrocyte endfeet bound the PVSs of penetrating arteries, separating them from brain extracellular space. Gaps between astrocyte endfeet might provide a low-resistance pathway for fluid transport across the wall.

Replacing animal proteins with plant proteins: Is this a way to improve quality and functional properties of hybrid cheeses and cheese analogs?

The growing emphasis on dietary health has facilitated the development of plant-based foods. Plant proteins have excellent functional attributes and health-enhancing effects and are also environmentally conscientious and animal-friendly protein sources on a global scale. The addition of plant proteins (including soy protein, pea protein, zein, nut protein, and gluten protein) to diverse cheese varieties and cheese analogs holds the promise of manufacturing symbiotic products that not only have reduced fat content but also exhibit improved protein diversity and overall quality.

Image analysis techniques for in vivo quantification of cerebrospinal fluid flow.

Over the past decade, there has been a tremendously increased interest in understanding the neurophysiology of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow, which plays a crucial role in clearing metabolic waste from the brain. This growing interest was largely initiated by two significant discoveries: the glymphatic system (a pathway for solute exchange between interstitial fluid deep within the brain and the CSF surrounding the brain) and meningeal lymphatic vessels (lymphatic vessels in the layer of tissue surrounding the brain that drains CSF). These two CSF systems work in unison, and their disruption has been implicated in several neurological disorders including Alzheimer's disease, stroke, and traumatic brain injury.

Mollusca collected by Agassiz trawl from the 2016 SO-AntEco (JR15005) expedition to the South Orkney Islands, Antarctica - data.

Background: This dataset contributes to the knowledge of macro- and megafaunal Mollusca associated with a range of benthic habitat types in the South Orkney Islands, Antarctica, an exceptionally diverse region of the Southern Ocean. The information presented is derived from Agassiz trawl samples collected on the archipelago's shelf plateau and slope, within and outside of the South Orkney Islands Southern Shelf Marine Protected Area (SOISS MPA). Sampling was conducted in the framework of the British Antarctic Survey/SCAR "South Orkneys - State of the Antarctic Ecosystem" (SO-AntEco) project aboard RRS during expedition JR15005 in Austral summer 2016.

Aligning Standards Communities for Omics Biodiversity Data: Sustainable Darwin Core-MIxS Interoperability.

The standardization of data, encompassing both primary and contextual information (metadata), plays a pivotal role in facilitating data (re-)use, integration, and knowledge generation. However, the biodiversity and omics communities, converging on omics biodiversity data, have historically developed and adopted their own distinct standards, hindering effective (meta)data integration and collaboration. In response to this challenge, the Task Group (TG) for Sustainable DwC-MIxS Interoperability was established.

Perivascular pumping of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain with a valve mechanism.

The flow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) along perivascular spaces (PVSs) is an important part of the brain's system for clearing metabolic waste. Experiments reveal that arterial motions from cardiac pulsations and functional hyperaemiadrive CSF in the same direction as the blood flow, but the mechanism producing this directionality is unclear. Astrocyte endfeet bound the PVSs of penetrating arteries, separating them from brain extracellular space (ECS) and potentially regulating flow between the two compartments.

Image Analysis Techniques for In Vivo Quantification of Cerebrospinal Fluid Flow.

Over the last decade, there has been a tremendously increased interest in understanding the neurophysiology of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow, which plays a crucial role in clearing metabolic waste from the brain. This growing interest was largely initiated by two significant discoveries: the glymphatic system (a pathway for solute exchange between interstitial fluid deep within the brain and the CSF surrounding the brain) and meningeal lymphatic vessels (lymphatic vessels in the layer of tissue surrounding the brain that drain CSF). These two CSF systems work in unison, and their disruption has been implicated in several neurological disorders including Alzheimer's disease, stoke, and traumatic brain injury.

Delivery of hydroxycamptothecin via sonoporation: An effective therapy for liver fibrosis.

Hepatic fibrosis is the common pathway for most chronic liver diseases, characterized by excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. It has been shown that fibrotic ECM significantly hindered passage of nanoparticles. Efforts have been made by decorating degrading enzymes on surfaces of nanosized delivery vehicles to improve drug delivery.

Myctobase, a circumpolar database of mesopelagic fishes for new insights into deep pelagic prey fields.

The global importance of mesopelagic fish is increasingly recognised, but they remain poorly studied. This is particularly true in the Southern Ocean, where mesopelagic fishes are both key predators and prey, but where the remote environment makes sampling challenging. Despite this, multiple national Antarctic research programs have undertaken regional sampling of mesopelagic fish over several decades.
