Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Detection of Hydrogen Bond Network in a Proton Pump Rhodopsin RxR and Its Alteration during the Cyclic Photoreaction

Hydrogen bond formation and deformation are crucial for the structural construction and functional expression of biomolecules. However, direct observation of exchangeable hydrogens, especially for oxygen-bound hydrogens, relevant to hydrogen bonds is challenging for current structural analysis approaches.

Association of Reversal of Renin Suppression With Long-Term Renal Outcome in Medically Treated Primary Aldosteronism

BACKGROUND: Renin suppression in primary aldosteronism indicates mineralocorticoid receptor activation via excessive aldosterone secretion, inducing renal damage. We investigated whether the reversal of renin suppression after the initiation of mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist therapy was associated with long-term renal outcomes in medically treated patients with primary aldosteronism.

Structural basis of CXC chemokine receptor 1 ligand binding and activation

Neutrophil granulocytes play key roles in innate immunity and shaping adaptive immune responses. They are attracted by chemokines to sites of infection and tissue damage, where they kill and phagocytose bacteria.

Nudging public budget officers: A field-based survey experiment

Existing research has focused on budget officers' intertemporal decision-making but has not addressed the problem that budget officers tend to underestimate future outcomes in the budget process.
