To infinity and some glimpses of beyond
Nature Communications, 2017 Certain physical problems such as the rupture of a thin sheet can be difficult to solve as computations breakdown at the point of rupture. Here the authors propose a regularization approach to overcome this breakdown which could help dealing with ...

Where does N(ε)-trimethyllysine for the carnitine biosynthesis in mammals come from? [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 N(ε)-trimethyllysine (TML) is a non-protein amino acid which takes part in the biosynthesis of carnitine. In mammals, the breakdown of endogenous proteins containing TML residues is recognized as starting point for the carnitine biosynthesis.

Reliability Prediction of Highly Scaled MOSFET Devices via Fractal Structure of Spatial Defects
IEEE Access, 2019 The needs for continuous size reduction of metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) devices can cause serious reliability concerns. In particular, gate oxide breakdown is a key mechanism concerning the lifetimes of MOSFET devices.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Energies, 2022 The impulse breakdown attributes are of rudimentary importance in the insulation coordination in the gas-insulated switchgear (GIS). The critical voltage waveshape for the insulation is the surge over voltages.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Low-Area Four-Channel Controlled Dielectric Breakdown System Design for Point-of-Care Applications
Sensors, 2022 In this study, we propose a low-area multi-channel controlled dielectric breakdown (CDB) system that simultaneously produces several nanopore sensors. Conventionally, solid-state nanopores are prepared by etching or drilling openings in a silicon nitride

Grüneisen Ratio at the Kondo-Breakdown Quantum Critical Point
Physical Review Letters, 2008 We show that the scenario of multi-scale Kondo breakdown quantum critical point (QCP) gives rise to a divergent Gr neisen ratio with an anomalous exponent 0.7. In particular, we fit the experimental data of $YbRh_{2}(Si_{0.95}Ge_{0.05})_{2}$ for specific heat, thermal expansion, and Gr neisen ratio based on our simple analytic expressions.

Aggressive prostate cancer is associated with pericyte dysfunction
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Tumor‐produced TGF‐β drives pericyte dysfunction in prostate cancer. This dysfunction is characterized by downregulation of some canonical pericyte markers (i.e., DES, CSPG4, and ACTA2) while maintaining the expression of others (i.e., PDGFRB, NOTCH3, and RGS5).
