Lead as an Architectural Sound Barrier [PDF]

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1962
Very high values of sound-transmission loss can be provided by lead-backed building materials at moderate costs. To achieve this requires optimizing the thickness of the building material—gypsum board, plywood, hardboard, or sheet metal—in relation to panel weight. Some practical examples are shown, along with a low-cost laminating technique.

ARP3 Controls the Podocyte Architecture at the Kidney Filtration Barrier [PDF]

Developmental Cell, 2018
Podocytes, highly specialized epithelial cells, build the outer part of the kidney filtration barrier and withstand high mechanical forces through a complex network of cellular protrusions. Here, we show that Arp2/3-dependent actin polymerization controls actomyosin contractility and focal adhesion maturation of podocyte protrusions and thereby ...

Nano-scale Architecture of Blood-Brain Barrier Tight-Junctions [PDF]

eLife, 2021
Abstract Tight junctions (TJs) between blood-brain barrier (BBB) endothelial cells construct a robust physical barrier, whose damage underlies BBB dysfunctions related to several neurodegenerative diseases. What makes these highly specialized BBB-TJs extremely restrictive remains unknown. Here, we use super-resolution
