Article Abstract
Conventional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) offers limited sensitivity for direct metabolic and molecular imaging using non-proton nuclei due to low thermal nuclear spin polarization. Hyperpolarization (HP) technologies increase nuclear spin polarization by several orders of magnitude, overcoming this limitation to enable in vivo studies of biochemistry and physiology. A growing body of literature has shown the value in HP technologies offering metabolic and functional information useful for a variety of clinical applications. This review details the complete workflow of hyperpolarized MRI, from the methodologies used to produce hyperpolarized samples and the range of available probes to the specific imaging acquisition and data analysis strategies required to maximize the signal, and finally, its major clinical applications. EVIDENCE LEVEL: 5. TECHNICAL EFFICACY: Stage 3.

The hallmarks of mechanosensitive ion channels have been observed for half a century in various cell lines, although their mechanisms and molecular identities remained unknown until recently. Identification of the bona fide mammalian mechanosensory Piezo channels resulted in an explosion of research exploring the translation of mechanical cues into biochemical signals and dynamic cell morphology responses. One of the Piezo isoforms - Piezo1 - is integral in the erythrocyte (red blood cell; RBC) membrane.

Cyanobacteria played a pivotal role in shaping Earth's early history and today are key players in many ecosystems. As versatile and ubiquitous phototrophs, they are used as models for oxygenic photosynthesis, nitrogen fixation, circadian rhythms, symbiosis, and adaptations to harsh environments. Cyanobacterial genomes and metagenomes exhibit high levels of genomic diversity partly driven by gene flow within and across species.

Grain size substantially influences rice quality and yield. In this study, we identified (), a quantitative trait locus encoding an F-box protein that enhances grain length by promoting cell proliferation. The transcription factor OsbZIP35 represses expression, while COR1 interacts with OsTCP19, leading to its degradation.

Cell type-specific regulatory programs that drive type 1 diabetes (T1D) in the pancreas are poorly understood. Here, we performed single-nucleus multiomics and spatial transcriptomics in up to 32 nondiabetic (ND), autoantibody-positive (AAB), and T1D pancreas donors. Genomic profiles from 853,005 cells mapped to 12 pancreatic cell types, including multiple exocrine subtypes.

Integrins bind ligands between their alpha (α) and beta (β) subunits and transmit signals through conformational changes. Early in chordate evolution, some α subunits acquired an "inserted" (I) domain that expanded integrin's ligand-binding repertoire but obstructed the ancestral ligand pocket, seemingly blocking conventional integrin activation. Here, we compare cryo-electron microscopy structures of apo and ligand-bound states of the I domain-containing αEβ integrin and the I domain-lacking αβ integrin to illuminate how the I domain intrinsically mimics an extrinsic ligand to preserve integrin function.
