A novel polysaccharide in the envelope of influences the septal secretion of preproteins with a YSIRK/GXXS motif.
J Bacteriol
January 2025
Department of Microbiology, Howard Taylor Ricketts Laboratory, The University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois, USA.
Unlabelled: Bacteria transport proteins across the plasma membrane to assemble their envelope, acquire nutrients, and establish appropriate interactions with their environment. The majority of these proteins are synthesized as precursors with a cleavable N-terminal signal sequence for recognition by the Sec machinery. In , a small subset of secreted precursors carries a YSIRK/GXXS motif.

Plast Reconstr Surg Glob Open
January 2025
Division of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Department of Surgery, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, MA.
Background: Surgical drains are commonly used in breast surgery and breast reconstruction for seroma prevention. Although many surgeons are aware that surgical drains can cause considerable discomfort to patients, less is understood about the specific impacts of drains on postoperative pain and quality of life (QOL).
Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among patients at our institution who had previously undergone mastectomy or breast reconstruction procedures to better understand patients' experiences with surgical drains.
Amplification of Secondary Flow at the Initiation Site of Intracranial Sidewall Aneurysms.
Cardiovasc Eng Technol
January 2025
Department of Hydrodynamic Systems, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Budapest University of Technology and Economics, Műegyetem rkp. 1-3, Budapest, 1111, Hungary.
Purpose: The initiation of intracranial aneurysms has long been studied, mainly by the evaluation of the wall shear stress field. However, the debate about the emergence of hemodynamic stimuli still persists. This paper builds on our previous hypothesis that secondary flows play an important role in the formation cascade by examining the relationship between flow physics and vessel geometry.

Sci Rep
January 2025
United Testing Services (Jiangsu) Co., Ltd, Suzhou, 215228, China.
The airflow in the transport channel contributes to the accelerated straightening of the hooked fibers, which greatly influences the structural properties of the yarn. To study the straightening process of hooked fiber in the fiber transport channel, Altair EDEM 2022 software was used to establish flexible fiber models, and combined with ANSYS Fluent 2022R1 simulation software, the fluid-solid coupling method was used to simulate the air velocity distribution in the fiber transport channel and the straightening process of the hooked fibers in the airflow field. The numerical simulated air flow is verified by Hagen-Poissuille pipe flow equation.

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified numerous genes associated with ASCVD that function in the vessel wall, suggesting that vascular cells mediate ASCVD, and that the genes and pathways essential for this vascular cell function may be novel therapeutic targets for the treatment of ASCVD. Furthermore, some of these implicated genes appear to function in the adventitial layer of the vasculature, suggesting these cells are able to potentiate ASCVD.
