Simvastatin reduces vinculin localization at cell-cell adhesions in endothelial monolayers. by Marsha C. Lampi (845609)

“…(C) Vinculin localization per monolayer at cell-cell adhesions, a readout of intercellular junction tension, is quantified and increases with matrix stiffness but is significantly decreased with the statin treatment at higher matrix stiffnesses (n = 3, 70–90 fields of view per condition). …”

Ten years of improving glycemic control in pediatric diabetes care: Data from the Norwegian Childhood Diabetes Registry by Heiko Bratke (10112600)

“…The predictor variables in the adjusted linear mixed-effects model were (1) the use of diabetes technology, (2) the use of carbohydrate counting for meal bolusing, and (3) whether the patient’s diabetes team participated in a quality improvement project.</p><p dir="ltr">Results: Mean HbA1c decreased from 8.2% (2013) to 7.2% (2021), and the proportion of youth reaching an HbA1c <7.0% increased from 13% (2013) to 43% (2022). …”

Data Sheet 1_Functional analysis of the Escherichia coli mrdA gene in melittin resistance.docx by Chong-Yi Zhao (20830733)

<i>Drosophila</i> Spidey/Kar Regulates Oenocyte Growth via PI3-Kinase Signaling by Einat Cinnamon (2922108)

“…Several enzymes of fatty acid, triglyceride and hydrocarbon metabolism are required in oenocytes primarily for lipid droplet induction rather than for cell growth. In contrast, a very long chain fatty-acyl-CoA reductase (FarO) and a putative lipid dehydrogenase/reductase (Spidey, also known as Kar) not only promote lipid droplet induction but also inhibit oenocyte growth. …”
