Behind the Paper
The real stories behind the latest research papers, from conception to publication, the highs and the lows
Complete remission of diabetes mellitus
Pancreas or islet transplantation have been performed with the goal of curing diabetes mellitus. Recently, gene therapy and regenerative medicine using iPS or ES cells have also been newly proposed. However, these therapies are not sufficient for more than 500 million patients in the world 1.
Collective photothermal bending of flexible organic crystals modified with MXene-polymer multilayers as optical waveguide arrays
We present a straightforward approach to obtain flexible hybrid organic crystalline materials that are mechanically responsive to infrared light.
Unveiling the Role of Protein Glycosylation: Insights into Conformational Dynamics and Disease Mechanisms
Glycosylation plays a critical role in controlling normal cell functions as well as disease-related conditions. Understanding how sugar modifications impact proteins, including their conformations and interactions, is crucial for unraveling the causes of diseases and developing targeted treatments.
