Our studies were undertaken to develop new insights into the function of the Salmonella Stn protein. An analysis of total cell membrane protein fraction suggested the possibility that Stn associates with OmpA. This possibility was confirmed by immunogold labeling using anti-OmpA antibody and far-western blotting. From these results, we conclude that Stn regulates membrane composition and integrity in Salmonella.

Adenosine deaminase acting on RNA 1 (ADAR1) plays an essential role in the development of malignancies by modifying the expression of different oncogenes. ADAR1 presents three distinct activities: adenosine-to-inosine RNA editing, modulating IFN pathways, and response to cellular stress factors. Following stressors such as heat shock, ADAR1p110 isoform relocates from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, where it suppresses RNA degradation which leads to the arrest of apoptosis and cell survival.

Article Synopsis
- Clock genes are important for the function of the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) and also play roles in other brain areas; their expression has been studied in various species to understand their functions better.
- This study focused on the presence of clock genes Per1, Per2, and Cry1 in neurons of the substantia nigra (SN) and subthalamic nucleus (STN) in a diurnal primate, expanding beyond research mainly done on nocturnal rodents.
- Immunohistochemistry revealed significant presence of Per1 and Per2 in the SN and both these genes in the STN, while Cry1 was not detected in the STN, highlighting the role of these genes in areas linked to motor

Background: Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) is an important biomarker for neuroinflammatory conditions. Recently, advancements in the treatment of neurological diseases have highlighted the increasing importance of biomarkers, creating a demand for accurate and simple measurement systems for GFAP levels, which are essential for both research and clinical applications. This study presents the development and validation of a novel fully automated immunoassay for the quantitative determination of GFAP levels in biological samples.

Human parvovirus B19 (B19V) causes fetal hydrops in pregnant women. Despite the significant impact of this virus, effective vaccines remain unclear. In this study, we successfully engineered B19V protein nanoparticles by fusing the N-terminal receptor-binding domain corresponding to 5-80 amino acids of VP1 with two distinct types of self-assembling protein nanoparticles.
