Background: With the continued growth in the volume both of experimental G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) data and of the related peer-reviewed literature, the ability of GPCR researchers to keep up-to-date is becoming increasingly curtailed.
Results: We present work that integrates the biological data and annotations in the GPCR information system (GPCRDB) with next-generation methods for intelligently exploring, visualising and interacting with the scientific articles used to disseminate them. This solution automatically retrieves relevant information from GPCRDB and displays it both within and as an adjunct to an article.
Conclusions: This approach allows researchers to extract more knowledge more swiftly from literature. Importantly, it allows reinterpretation of data in articles published before GPCR structure data became widely available, thereby rescuing these valuable data from long-dormant sources.

The Effect of Nurses' Professional Values on Missed Nursing Care: The Mediating Role of Moral Sensitivity.
Nurs Health Sci
March 2025
Nursing Services Manager, Memorial Health Group Ataşehir, Istanbul, Türkiye.
The aim of this study is to determine the mediating role of moral sensitivity in the effect of nurses' professional values on missed nursing care. A descriptive and correlational study was conducted with 640 nurses working in the inpatient units of a public and a private hospital with the MISSCARE Survey-Turkish, the Moral Sensitivity Questionnaire, and the Revised Nursing Professional Values Scale. Data analyses were performed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences 26.

Objective: To examine the medical students' awareness of laparoscopic surgery as well as assess the perceived importance of laparoscopic simulation training, and its impact on students' confidence, career aspirations, proficiency, spatial skills, and physical tolerance.
Design: Descriptive and comparative study using pre- and post-training assessments.
Setting: Simulation training sessions centred on laparoscopic surgery techniques.
Protocol for transcriptomic and epigenomic analyses of tip-like endothelial cells using scRNA-seq and ChIP-seq.

Angiogenesis begins as endothelial cells migrate, forming a sprouting tip and subsequent growth-rich stalk cells. Here, we present a protocol for transcriptomic and epigenomic analyses of tip-like cells in cultured endothelial cells. We describe steps for stimulating human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) with vascular endothelial cell growth factor (VEGF) to generate tip-like cells.

Here, we present a protocol for using Myotally, a user-friendly software for fast, automated quantification of muscle fiber size, number, and central nucleation from immunofluorescent stains of mouse skeletal muscle cross-sections. We describe steps for installing the software, preparing compatible images, finding the file path, and selecting key parameters like image quality and size limits. We also detail optional features, such as measuring mean fluorescence.

Understanding metabolic conditions related to glycolysis dependence is crucial for developing new treatments in cancer and regenerative medicine. This protocol details a method for using the live-cell metabolic analyzer (LiCellMo) to measure continuous changes in glucose consumption and lactate production in cultured human cells. LiCellMo provides real-time data on consecutive metabolic changes, improving measurements of these processes in various contexts, including in cancer and regenerative treatments.
