Seismic Structural Reliability by Time‐Variant Fragility Functions

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The seismic vulnerability of aging structures is often represented in the form of fragility curves that vary with time. On one hand, each of these functions is intended to apply if the earthquake hits at the time the fragility refers to. On the other hand, performance‐based earthquake engineering (PBEE) resources to classical probabilistic ...

Variant‐Specific Landscape of Mutual Exclusivity Among BRAF, EGFR, and KRAS Oncogenes Reveals Overlap With Functionally Antagonistic Mutant Pairs

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Mutual exclusivity and co‐occurrence of oncogenic mutations reflect functional antagonism or dependence and may inform therapeutic strategies. However, most studies overlook variant‐level patterns. In this comprehensive, cross‐cohort analysis of BRAF, KRAS, and EGFR mutation subtypes, the most significant mutual exclusivity pairs overlapped with ...

Black phosphorus‐based photothermal disruption of cancer‐associated fibroblast barriers and tumor‐associated macrophage targeting to enhance anti‐PD‐L1 immunotherapy in triple‐negative breast cancer

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
MBB modulates the TNBC tumor microenvironment by targeting TAM/CXCL1 and facilitates anti‐PD‐L1 therapy by disrupting CAF barriers via its photothermal effect. This combined strategy subsequently enhances the efficacy of PD‐L1 mAb and suppresses TNBC progression, metastasis, and recurrence.
