Published in 2020 at "European Biophysics Journal"

DOI: 10.1007/s00249-020-01458-5

Abstract: Phospholipases are important probes for understanding structure–function relationships of membrane proteins. Many neurotoxins have phospholipase activity, and they have been recognized to be potential therapeutic agents for biological warfare. Understanding the modes of action of… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Cell"

DOI: 10.1016/j.cell.2018.12.006

Abstract: The angiotensin II (AngII) type 1 receptor (AT1R) is a critical regulator of cardiovascular and renal function and is an important model for studies of G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling. By stabilizing the receptor with a… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Journal of behavior therapy and experimental psychiatry"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jbtep.2016.07.003

Abstract: BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Our understanding of how Behavioral Activation (BA) for depression works is limited. BA is theorized to lead to changes in depression through changes in activation. While distal support for activation as a… read more here.
