A noncanonical role for Jagged1 in endothelial mechanotransduction

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
This study reveals a noncanonical role for Jagged1 in endothelial mechanotransduction. Shear stress modulates Jagged1 expression and subcellular localization. Loss of Jagged1 attenuates mechanotransduction and reduces Src, VEGFR2, and ERK signaling. Direct mechanical stimulation of Jagged1 induces activation of these signaling pathways.

Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) kelt rheotaxis and position choice are influenced by flow velocity and turbulence in a regulated river

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The migratory behaviour of Atlantic salmon kelts is poorly understood. Due to the Atlantic salmon's considerable socio‐economic and ecological importance, their precipitous population abundance declines, and the population resilience potential of salmon kelts, addressing these knowledge gaps is important.

Reduced order modelling of air‐puff test for corneal material characterisation

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Models of the fluid–structure interaction (FSI) model for the air‐puff test were analysed. Using Abaqus, the air‐puff test is applied to eyes with varying biomechanical parameters, such as material properties, corneal thickness, and radius.

The Pharyngeal Resistance Index—A Promising Diagnostic Tool in OSA

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the newly developed pharyngeal resistance index derived from computational fluid dynamics analysis of the upper airway in patients with obstructive sleep apnea. The aim was to evaluate this index as a diagnostic and severity assessment tool by comparing it with the apnea‐hypopnea index before and after maxillomandibular

Immobilized CuCl2/TiO2 photocatalysts for the selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
The photocatalytic aerobic oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde was investigated using free and alginate‐immobilized CuCl2 and/or TiO2 (P25) catalysts under UV irradiation. Immobilization enabled catalyst recovery and maintained high benzaldehyde selectivity but led to reduced activity due to internal oxygen diffusion limitations, which were ...
