Factors Influencing Reinforcement of NR and EPDM Rubbers with Short Aramid Fibers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Among short fiber reinforced composites, those with rubbery matrices have gained great importance due to the advantages they have in processing and low cost, coupled with high strength.

Screening for lung cancer: A systematic review of overdiagnosis and its implications

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Low‐dose computed tomography (CT) screening for lung cancer may increase overdiagnosis compared to no screening, though the risk is likely low versus chest X‐ray. Our review of 8 trials (84 660 participants) shows added costs. Further research with strict adherence to modern nodule management strategies may help determine the extent to which ...

Pull-off adhesion strength of bonded wood in longitudinal and transverse direction

open access: yesNext Materials
The study examines the strength of adhesive joints in wooden structures, which are commonly used in various applications. A novel, and simple, test specimen preparation and testing procedure is presented in this work. Softwood (pine), hardwood (kanju and

Biomimetic emulsions reveal the effect of homeostatic pressure on cell-cell adhesion

open access: yes, 2012
Cell-cell contacts in tissues are continuously subject to mechanical forces due to homeostatic pressure and active cytoskeleton dynamics. While much is known about the molecular pathways of adhesion, the role of mechanics is less well understood.

Strength through diversity: how cancers thrive when clones cooperate

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Intratumor heterogeneity can offer direct benefits to the tumor through cooperation between different clones. In this review, Kuiken et al. discuss existing evidence for clonal cooperativity to identify overarching principles, and highlight how novel technological developments could address remaining open questions.

Correlating single-molecule rupture mechanics with cell population adhesion by yeast display

open access: yesBiophysical Reports, 2022
Here, we present a method based on yeast surface display that allows for direct comparison between population-level cell adhesion strength and single-molecule receptor-ligand rupture mechanics. We developed a high-throughput yeast adhesion assay in which

PLA/WOOD BIOCOMPOSITES: IMPROVING COMPOSITE STRENGTH BY CHEMICAL TREATMENT OF THE FIBERS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A resol type phenolic resin was prepared for the impregnation of wood particles used for the reinforcement of PLA. A preliminary study showed that the resin penetrates wood with rates depending on the concentration of the solution and on temperature ...

Strength Dependence of Cadherin-Mediated Adhesions [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2010
Traction forces between adhesive cells play an important role in a number of collective cell processes. Intercellular contacts, in particular cadherin-based intercellular junctions, are the major means of transmitting force within tissues. We investigated the effect of cellular tension on the formation of cadherin-cadherin contacts by spreading cells ...

Next‐generation proteomics improves lung cancer risk prediction

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This is one of very few studies that used prediagnostic blood samples from participants of two large population‐based cohorts. We identified, evaluated, and validated an innovative protein marker model that outperformed an established risk prediction model and criteria employed by low‐dose computed tomography in lung cancer screening trials.
