A slow but steady nanoLuc: R162A mutation results in a decreased, but stable, nanoLuc activity
Published 2024“…However, questions related to its mechanism of interaction with the substrate, furimazine, as well as bioluminescence activity remain elusive. Here, we combined molecular dynamics (MD) simulation and mutational analysis to show that the R162A mutation results in a decreased but stable <u>bioluminescence </u>activity of NLuc in living cells and in vitro. …”

Notch Signaling Inhibition by LY411575 Attenuates Osteoblast Differentiation and Decreased Ectopic Bone Formation Capacity of Human Skeletal (Mesenchymal) Stem Cells
Published 2019“…Among the tested molecules, LY411575, a potent γ-secretase and Notch signaling inhibitor, exhibited significant inhibitory effects on osteoblastic differentiation of hBMSCs manifested by reduced ALP activity, mineralized matrix formation, and decreased osteoblast-specific gene expression as well as in vivo ectopic bone formation. …”

Performance evaluation of 3D-printed PLA composites doped with WE43 magnesium alloy for bone tissue engineering applications
Published 2025“…While a low Mg content (5 %) only slightly impacted the print quality and dimensions, higher Mg concentrations (10 % and 15 %) led to increased weight, rougher surfaces, dimensional shrinkage in height, and overall poorer formation quality. Adding WE43 alloy to PLA decreased the average pore sizes of the composites. …”

Indomethacin as a Rescue Therapy for Patent Ductus Arteriosus in Extremely Premature Infants after Failed Ibuprofen Treatment
Published 2023“…While most PDAs close after one 3-day course of either medicine, a repeat course may be necessary before considering surgical ligation for those who remain with hsPDAs. In our practice, we administer one or two courses of ibuprofen followed by a single course of indomethacin if the PDA has not shown closure or decrease in size on the echocardiogram (echo) exam. …”

When Should a Brain MRI Be Performed in Children with New-Onset Seizures? Results of a Large Prospective Trial
Published 2021“…The presence of developmental delay and seizure type at presentation remained significant in a multivariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS: We documented a relatively high rate of epileptogenic lesions in children with new-onset seizures, with the presence of developmental delay and specific seizure types being associated with a higher likelihood of detecting an epileptogenic lesion on neuroimaging. …”
