New Models for UO2 Fuel Structure Evolution under Irradiation in Fast Reactors

open access: yes, 2011
On the base of analysis of experimental observations and critical assessment of existing models for oxide fuel structure evolution under operation conditions of fast reactors, new models for fuel restructuring and coring are proposed.

Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve

Creep characteristics and nonlinear creep damage model of Bocigou formation slate in Kangding-Xinduqiao section of West Sichuan

open access: yesShuiwen dizhi gongcheng dizhi, 2023
The creep characteristics of rock are closely related to the long-term stability of rock mass. With the excavation of deep buried tunnels in west China, in order to ensure the safety of engineering and the long-term stability of underground buildings, it

TRAIL‐PEG‐Apt‐PLGA nanosystem as an aptamer‐targeted drug delivery system potential for triple‐negative breast cancer therapy using in vivo mouse model

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aptamers are used both therapeutically and as targeting agents in cancer treatment. We developed an aptamer‐targeted PLGA–TRAIL nanosystem that exhibited superior therapeutic efficacy in NOD/SCID breast cancer models. This nanosystem represents a novel biotechnological drug candidate for suppressing resistance development in breast cancer.

Correlation of the differential expression of PIK3R1 and its spliced variant, p55α, in pan‐cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PIK3R1 undergoes alternative splicing to generate the isoforms, p85α and p55α. By combining large patient datasets with laboratory experiments, we show that PIK3R1 spliced variants shape cancer behavior. While tumors lose the protective p85α isoform, p55α is overexpressed, changes linked to poorer survival and more pronounced in African American ...

Creep damage constitutive model of rock based on the mechanisms of crack-initiated damage and extended damage

open access: yesUnderground Space
Since the classical element model cannot describe the nonlinear characteristics of rock during the entire compressive creep process, nonlinear elements and creep damage are generally introduced in the model to resolve this issue.

Effect of temperature on aging and time-temperature superposition in nonergodic Laponite suspensions

open access: yes, 2009
We have studied the effect of temperature on aging dynamics of laponite suspensions by carrying out the rheological oscillatory and creep experiments.

Accelerated testing of creep in polymeric materials using nanoindentation

open access: yesPolymer Testing, 2011
Abstract Creep properties of polymers are conventionally obtained from tensile creep tests but, due to the different processing conditions used in their manufacture, the microstructure and properties of the specimens used in this type of test are often different to those found in actual components.

RIPK4 function interferes with melanoma cell adhesion and metastasis

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
RIPK4 promotes melanoma growth and spread. RIPK4 levels increase as skin lesions progress to melanoma. CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated deletion of RIPK4 causes melanoma cells to form less compact spheroids, reduces their migratory and invasive abilities and limits tumour growth and dissemination in mouse models.

A novel nonlinear creep model based on damage characteristics of mudstone strength parameters.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Mudstone interlayer is a weak layer in rock engineering. When it is subjected to continuous stress higher than its damage threshold, due to the dislocation of particles in mudstone crystals and the expansion of cracks, mudstone strength is gradually ...
