Influence of chemical degradation and abrasion on surface properties of nanorestorative materials

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Oral Sciences, 2015
Aim: The aim of this in vitro study was to investigate the synergistic effect of chemical degradation (erosion) and three-body abrasion (mechanical degradation) on the surface roughness (Ra) and hardness (KHN) of two nanorestorative materials and two ...

Enhancing tribo-mechanical properties and thermal stability of nylon 6 by hexagonal boron nitride fillers

open access: yese-Polymers, 2020
Mechanical and tribological properties of nylon 6 and nylon 6/h-BN composites were investigated in this paper. Tensile, hardness, and impact tests were carried out for mechanical properties, while wear tests on pin-on-disc were carried out for ...

Novel Artificial Biofilm Equivalent for Denture Surfaces: A Pilot Study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Polymer Science, 2022
The microbial population of the dental biofilm is embedded in an extracellular matrix that contains organic polymers such as polysaccharides. The extracellular matrix promotes biofilm adhesion on surfaces of dental prostheses and acts as a protective ...

Determination of abrasive strength of fabrics through mass loss at various washing intervals

open access: yesMehran University Research Journal of Engineering and Technology, 2022
Fabrics undergo many wear and tear conditions through their lifetime. Abrasion occurs with the rubbing of fibers to another surface during their manufacturing process, usage, and laundering procedure.

Interface roughness effect on friction map under fretting contact conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In many industrial applications where fretting damage is observed in the contact (e.g. rotor/blade, electrical contacts, assembly joint, axe/wheel, clutch) the external loadings or geometry design cannot be changed. Therefore, the surface preparation and

Resistance of Geosynthetics against the Isolated and Combined Effect of Mechanical Damage under Repeated Loading and Abrasion

open access: yesMaterials, 2019
The behaviour of materials used for developing engineering structures should be properly foreseen during the design phase. Regarding geosynthetics, which are construction materials used in a wide range of engineering structures, the installation on site ...

Plecstatin inhibits hepatocellular carcinoma tumorigenesis and invasion through cytolinker plectin

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The ruthenium‐based metallodrug plecstatin exerts its anticancer effect in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) primarily through selective targeting of plectin. By disrupting plectin‐mediated cytoskeletal organization, plecstatin inhibits anchorage‐dependent growth, cell polarization, and tumor cell dissemination.

Therapeutic strategies for MMAE‐resistant bladder cancer through DPP4 inhibition

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We established monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE)‐resistant bladder cancer (BC) cell lines by exposure to progressively increasing concentrations of MMAE in vitro. RNA sequencing showed DPP4 expression was increased in MMAE‐resistant BC cells. Both si‐DPP4 and the DPP4 inhibitor sitagliptin suppressed the viability of MMAE‐resistant BC cells.
