After sonification of erythrocyte membranes, some changes were registered in these including a loss of their ability to structural rearrangements caused by cAMP (ESR-spectroscopy and luminescence data), an increase in cAMP binding and aggregation of intramembrane particles (freeze-fracture data). These findings suggest a non-identity of the structural organization in membranes and in their fragments. The cooperative nature of membrane structural modification at ultrasonic fragmentation is shown.

Objective: For patients with contraindications to hormone therapy, the absence of effective treatments for ovarian dysfunction post chemotherapy represents a critical issue requiring resolution. Local administration of mitochondria may enhance ovarian function in premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) by ameliorating diminished mitochondrial activity. Nevertheless, there is a paucity of literature on the efficacy of mitochondrial transplantation through intravenous injection, a less invasive and more convenient method than local injection, for the improvement of ovarian function in POI following chemotherapy.

Purpose: To detect the prognostic importance of liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) in lung adenocarcinoma.
Methods: The gene expression files, copy number variation data, and clinical data were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas cohort. LLPS-related genes were acquired from the DrLLPS website.

Background: Medical students often struggle to engage with and retain complex pharmacology topics during their preclinical education. Traditional teaching methods can lead to passive learning and poor long-term retention of critical concepts.
Objective: This study aims to enhance the teaching of clinical pharmacology in medical school by using a multimodal generative artificial intelligence (genAI) approach to create compelling, cinematic clinical narratives (CCNs).

The controlled binding of proteins on nanoparticle surfaces remains a grand challenge required for many applications ranging from biomedical to energy storage. The difficulty in achieving this ability arises from the different functional groups of the biomolecule that can adsorb on the nanoparticle surface. While most proteins can only adopt a single structure, metamorphic proteins can access at least two different conformations, which presents intriguing opportunities to exploit such structural variations for binding to nanoparticles.

Developing efficient and noble metal-minimized electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reactions (OER) is critical for energy conversion reactions. Here we present Ru-minimized BiRuO@MOF-801 that synergistically combines the high catalytic activity of the bimetallic oxide with the unique structural and hydrophilic properties of the Zr-MOF. The composite achieves superior OER performance with a low overpotential of 307 mV at 50 mA cm and a Tafel slope of 99.
