By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only

Intramolecular Versus Intermolecular Diels–Alder Reactions: Insights from Molecular Electron Density Theory

open access: yesMolecules
The intramolecular Diels–Alder (IMDA) reactions of four substituted deca-1,3,9-trienes and one N-methyleneocta-5,7-dien-1-aminium with different electrophilic/nucleophilic activations have been studied within the Molecular Electron Density Theory (MEDT ...

Hematopoietic (stem) cells—The elixir of life?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The aging of HSCs (hematopoietic stem cells) and the blood system leads to the decline of other organs. Rejuvenating aged HSCs improves the function of the blood system, slowing the aging of the heart, kidney, brain, and liver, and the occurrence of age‐related diseases.

Ab-initio electron transport calculations of carbon based string structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
First-principles calculations show that monatomic strings of carbon have high cohesive energy and axial strength, and exhibit stability even at high temperatures.

Interplay between circadian and other transcription factors—Implications for cycling transcriptome reprogramming

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This perspective highlights emerging insights into how the circadian transcription factor CLOCK:BMAL1 regulates chromatin architecture, cooperates with other transcription factors, and coordinates enhancer dynamics. We propose an updated framework for how circadian transcription factors operate within dynamic and multifactorial chromatin landscapes ...

Volatile Organic Compounds in a Petrochemical Region in Arid of NW China: Chemical Reactivity and Source Apportionment

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2019
We measured volatile organic compounds (VOCs) during the heating, non-heating, and sandstorm periods in the air of the Dushanzi district in NW China and investigated their concentrations, chemical reactivity, and sources.

Surface reactivity of amphibole asbestos. A comparison between crocidolite and tremolite [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Among asbestos minerals, fibrous riebeckite (crocidolite) and tremolite share the amphibole structure but largely differ in terms of their iron content and oxidation state. In asbestos toxicology, iron-generated free radicals are largely held as one of

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...
