Cell‐cycle‐specific lesion evolution rather than inhibition of double‐strand‐break repair underpins cisplatin radiosensitization

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We analyze cisplatin–DNA adducts (CDAs) and double‐strand breaks (DSBs) in a cell‐cycle‐dependent manner. We find that CDAs form similarly across all cell cycle phases. DSBs arise only in S‐phase. CDAs might not directly impair DSB repair, but S‐phase DSB lesions evolve in the presence of CDAs and disrupt repair in G2, also causing radiosensitization ...

Inverse Heat Transfer Analysis for Estimating Heat Flux in Solar Tower Receivers

SolarPACES Conference Proceedings
Solar power tower plants are utilized to harness solar radiation for large-scale electricity generation. The concentrated solar radiation is absorbed by the central receiver to heat a transfer fluid, which is typically a mixture of 60% sodium nitrate ...

Novel analysis of second law and irreversibility for a solar power plant using heliostat field and molten salt

Energy Science & Engineering, 2020
Nowadays, the low efficiency of solar energy power plant systems brings about uneconomical performance and high‐cost uncompetitive industries compared with the traditional fossil fuel ones.

Revisiting Mission‐Oriented Cancer Research to tackle the increasing burden of cancer in Europe–a policy perspective

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Translational cancer research and its implementation through competitively selected Comprehensive Cancer Centers across Europe should be the primary policy focus for addressing the increasing cancer burden in Europe and counteract the present main strategy to convert cancer to a chronic disease.

Concentrating Solar Power: Focusing the Sun's Energy with Mirrors to Produce Electricity [PDF]

, 2006
Key facts: - Concentrating solar power (CSP) technologies use mirrors to focus the sun's heat. This heat is used to boil water, and the resulting steam turns a turbine to generate electricity.

Molecular cancer prevention: Intercepting disease

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Oncological practice must evolve, from treating established tumours to proactive cancer interception before clinical manifestation. This will require mechanistic insight into tumour initiation, validated biomarkers of early disease development and redesigned clinical trials, enabling cancer interception to become a core pillar of oncology with the ...

Protocols for calibrating multibeam sonar [PDF]

, 2005
Development of protocols for calibrating multibeam sonar by means of the standard-target method is documented. Particular systems used in the development work included three that provide the water-column signals, namely the SIMRAD SM2000/90- and 200-kHz ...

Targeting TNBC: core–shell polycationic polyurea dendrimers with inherent anticancer activity

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Core–shell polycationic PURE dendrimers were tested in TNBC‐derived tumor models. Both formulations selectively targeted TNBC and effectively reduced tumor volume. PUREG4‐OEI48 suppressed tumor growth without detectable toxicity, whereas PUREG4‐OCEI24, despite showing efficacy, induced hepatic toxicity.
