We have shown in our earlier paper (4) that a ribonuclease resistant filamentous network was associated with the fibrillar structures of the nucleolus of L 929 interphase nucleus. After desoxyribonuclease digestion and oxydised DAB opacification, the nucleolar fibrillar areas became heterogenous from an electron microscopical point of view. We have concluded that an important part of these fibrillar areas are composed of DNA and that the high electron dense fibrillar structures seen after desoxyribonuclease digestion, are the primary ribosomal gene product, just transcribed on the DNA matrix.

Supramolecular oleogels, in which low-molecular weight oleogelators self-assemble into various nanostructures through non-covalent interactions, have witnessed increasing research activity in various fields of science, including food, cosmetics or remediation of marine oil spills. Herein, we report a simple scalable and environmentally friendly carbohydrate-based oleogelator, namely, the sodium salt of ,'-dimethyl β- glucosyl barbiturate (GlcBMe) that self-assembles through sonication to induce the gelation of polar organic solvent and later of non-polar vegetable oils by cationic exchange with quaternary ammonium surfactants. Water-soluble GlcBMe was capable of forming self-assembled fibrillar network bridging insoluble particles in the oil by sonication in the presence of a small amount of water.

The objective of this work was to investigate the biofilm production capacity of the isolate EB-40 (Bacillus cereus) in a culture medium for the multiplication of microorganisms and in roots of in vitro grown banana explants. It was observed that the isolate was able to produce biofilms in tryptone, soy and agar (TSA) culture medium and in the roots of explants. The format, architecture and location of the biofilms in TSA culture medium presented an exopolymer matrix formed by EB-40 presented coccoid bacillary cells and fibrillar structures.

Pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PXS) is an age-related fibrillopathy where fibrillar exfoliation material accumulates and deposits in ocular and extra-ocular tissue. Within the eye, this substance accumulates on the ocular surface and in the anterior segment of the eye, impacting ocular structures such as the conjunctiva, Tenon's capsule, sclera, cornea, iris, ciliary body, trabecular meshwork, and lens. This review aims to collate the current literature on how each anatomical part of the eye is affected by PXS, with a strong focus on molecular changes.

Iron fortification with food supplements remains the primary dietary strategy for improving iron deficiency anemia (IDA). This study used Antarctic krill protein for fibrillar design to form an Antarctic krill protein amyloid fibril (AKAF). The results indicated that peptides generated by proteolysis were a prerequisite for fibril assembly, forming elongated fibril structures and cross-linking upon heating.

Persistence of long-term hyperglycemia results in the glyco-oxidation of plasma proteins, which is considered to be a significant factor in metabolic dysfunction, linking hyperglycemia to the emergence of vascular complications. Methylglyoxal (MGO), a dicarbonyl species formed excessively under diabetes, elevates the oxidative stress, enhancing the generation of superoxide anion, which ultimately reacts with nitric oxide (NO•) to form peroxynitrite (PON). PON, being a powerful nitro-oxidizing agent distorts protein structure, hampering its function.
