Development of a Novel, All‐Aromatic High Tensile Modulus Liquid Crystalline Polyimide for Fused Filament Fabrication Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A novel, high tensile modulus, fully aromatic thermotropic liquid crystalline polyimide (LCPI) with better solvent resistance and thermal stability is synthesized. Tensile specimens are fabricated using both injection molding and FFF processes, accomplished via lower viscosity enabled by the LC phase.

Making Photoresponsive Metal–Organic Frameworks an Effective Class of Heterogeneous Photocatalyst

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review summarizes photoresponsive MOFs for photocatalytic applications, focusing on their capacity to enhance light harvesting, charge transfer, and surface reactions. While existing studies provide foundational insights, emerging characterization techniques enable a deeper understanding of photoresponsive MOFs.

Circularly Polarized Perovskite Photodetector with Photocurrent Dissymmetry Factors of up to 1.95 Enabled by Liquid Crystal

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Photodetectors made using perovskite single crystals in combination with free‐standing cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC) polymer films exhibit photocurrent dissymmetry factors up to 1.95 for 520 nm circularly polarized light (CPL) excitation. The CPL spectral response of the photodetector is tunable over a broad range of wavelengths by tuning the ...

Highly Off‐Centering Cations in Pavonite‐Structured Ag1.75InSb5.75Se11 with Competitive Thermoelectric Performance

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Off‐centering of cations in pavonite‐structured Ag1.75InSb5.75Se11 (AISS) breaks crystal symmetry, inducing Rashba‐like band splitting and high band degeneracy, thus enhancing Seebeck coefficients. Soft bonds between off‐centered cations and Se atoms increase phonon scattering, achieving low lattice thermal conductivity (0.22 W m−1K−1 at 723 K). Doping

Multi‐Scaled Cellulosic Nanonetworks from Tunicates

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Microbial and plant nanonetworks of cellulose have enabled a wide range of high‐performance yet sustainable materials. Herein, a third class of cellulosic nanonetworks is showcased by exploiting the only animal tissue‐producing cellulose nanofibers, i.e., ascidians. An ultrastructure including spherical cells and a microvasculature with diameters of 50–

A CENTRAL ROLE FOR CENTRAL TOLERANCE

Annual Review of Immunology, 2006
Recent elucidation of the role of central tolerance in preventing organ-specific autoimmunity has changed our concepts of self/nonself discrimination. This paradigmatic shift is largely attributable to the discovery of promiscuous expression of tissue-restricted self-antigens (TRAs) by medullary thymic epithelial cells (mTECs).

Central tolerance: good but imperfect

Immunological Reviews, 2006
Summary:  T‐cell development is a highly coordinated process that depends on interactions between thymocytes, thymic epithelium, and bone marrow (BM)‐derived dendritic cells (DCs). Before entering the peripheral T‐cell pool, thymocytes are subject to negative selection, a process that eliminates (or deletes) T cells with high affinity toward self ...

Tolerance to centrally administered phenobarbital

Biochemical Pharmacology, 1976
Abstract Rats with permanent indwelling cerebral ventricular cannulae were shown to lose their righting reflex in response to centrally injected phenobarbital in a dose-related manner. Administration of four daily injections of 800 μg each over a 4- to 5-day period produced a gradual tolerance to the hypnotic effect, which was reversible after ...

Central Tolerance Induction

2013
A critical function of the thymus is to help enforce tolerance to self. The importance of central tolerance in preventing autoimmunity has been enlightened by a deeper understanding of the interactions of developing T cells with a diverse population of thymic antigen presenting cell populations.
