Artificial intelligence for stromal cell quality assessment: A systematic review of human mesenchymal stromal cell properties and viability
Reliable assessment of mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) viability and stem cell–associated properties is essential for ensuring the consistency, safety, and therapeutic potential of MSC cultures before clinical use. However, incomplete und...

Distinct mechanism of syntaxin3-dependent tight junction assembly in keratinocyte model cells
In the epidermis, differentiated keratinocytes form tight junctions (TJs) at a specific layer of the stratified epithelium, contributing to the skin barrier function. Previously, we demonstrated that the t-SNARE protein Syntaxin3 (Stx3) ...

A proposed mechanism of ammonia excretion in the seahorse brood pouch revealed by rhesus glycoprotein localization
In seahorses (family Syngnathidae), the male brood pouch provides a protected environment for developing embryos. During pregnancy, embryos develop within an enclosed brood pouch, requiring a physiological mechanism to eliminate the nitr...
