Quantifying biological carbon pump pathways with a data-constrained mechanistic model ensemble approach [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2022
The ability to constrain the mechanisms that transport organic carbon into the deep ocean is complicated by the multiple physical, chemical, and ecological processes that intersect to create, transform, and transport particles in the ocean. In this paper

Carbon sequestration by multiple biological pump pathways in a coastal upwelling biome

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Multiple processes transport carbon into the deep ocean as part of the biological carbon pump, leading to long-term carbon sequestration. However, our ability to predict future changes in these processes is hampered by the absence of studies that have ...

Phenomenological model of motility by spatiotemporal modulation of active interactions

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2021
Transport at microscopic length scales is essential in biological systems and various technologies, including microfluidics. Recent experiments achieved self-organized transport phenomena in microtubule active matter using light to modulate motor-protein

The Balance of Fluid and Osmotic Pressures across Active Biological Membranes with Application to the Corneal Endothelium. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The movement of fluid and solutes across biological membranes facilitates the transport of nutrients for living organisms and maintains the fluid and osmotic pressures in biological systems. Understanding the pressure balances across membranes is crucial

A Magnetically Driven Amoeba‐Like Nanorobot for Whole‐Process Active Drug Transport

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2023
The passive diffusion performance of nanocarriers results in inefficient drug transport across multiple biological barriers and consequently cancer therapy failure.

Transport, stability, and biological activity of resveratrol [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2011
Numerous studies have reported interesting properties oftrans‐resveratrol, a phytoalexin, as a preventive agent of several important pathologies: vascular diseases, cancers, viral infections, and neurodegenerative processes. These beneficial effects of resveratrol have been supported by observations at the cellular and molecular levels in both cellular

How molecular motors work in the crowded environment of living cells: coexistence and efficiency of normal and anomalous transport. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Recent experiments reveal both passive subdiffusion of various nanoparticles and anomalous active transport of such particles by molecular motors in the molecularly crowded environment of living biological cells.

Functional Roles of the Conserved Amino Acid Sequence Motif C, the Antiporter Motif, in Membrane Transporters of the Major Facilitator Superfamily

open access: yesBiology, 2023
The biological membrane surrounding all living cells forms a hydrophobic barrier to the passage of biologically important molecules. Integral membrane proteins called transporters circumvent the cellular barrier and transport molecules across the cell ...

Transplacental transfer mechanism of organochlorine pesticides: An in vitro transcellular transport study

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2020
Recent studies show that, even after being banned for agricultural applications for over 30 years, organochlorine pesticides (OCPs), including hexachlorocyclohexanes (HCHs) and dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) and its metabolites (DDXs), can still ...
