Scenarios for Maintenance and Building Decommissioning in the Building’s Life Cycle

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2019
The LCC analysis can be applied to assess effectiveness of construction variants or acquisition of new facilities as well as modernization of the existing ones. The authors of this paper intended to apply the LCCA method at analysing a building in the final stage of the building life cycle (grade phase).

Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.

Assessment of the Effects of Deferred Maintenance on the Current Technical Condition of a Building: Case Study—A Former Fire Station in Nowy Raduszec

Applied Sciences
The degradation of building elements progresses with the age of a building as a result of natural ageing processes. The lack of regular maintenance, repair, and renovation works during the operational phase accelerates degradation processes, leading to ...

Peripheral lysosomes recruit PLEKHG3 to focal adhesions and restrain protrusion dynamics

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proximity‐dependent labeling at the LAMTOR complex revealed the Rho GEF PLEKHG3 as a lysosome‐proximal protein directing the study toward the influence of lysosome positioning on actin dynamics and cell motility. We show that PLEKHG3 colocalizes with lysosomes at focal adhesion sites and observe that forced peripheral dispersion of lysosomes hinders ...

Buildings Lean Maintenance Implementation Model

Open Engineering, 2016
Abstract Nowadays, companies in global markets have to achieve high levels of performance and competitiveness to stay “alive”.Within this assumption, the building maintenance cannot be done in a casual and improvised way due to the costs related.

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...
