Organoids in pediatric cancer research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Preparation and Characterization of Cellulose Nanocrystals from the Bio-ethanol Residuals

Nanomaterials, 2017
This study was to explore the conversion of low-cost bio-residuals into high value-added cellulose nanocrystals. Two enzymatic hydrolyzed residuals (i.e., HRMMW and HRSPW) were collected from two different bio-ethanol producing processes—hydrolyzing ...

One-step synthesis and electromagnetic absorption properties of high entropy rare earth hexaborides (HE REB6) and high entropy rare earth hexaborides/borates (HE REB6/HE REBO3) composite powders

Journal of Advanced Ceramics, 2020
Considering the emergence of severe electromagnetic interference problems, it is vital to develop electromagnetic (EM) wave absorbing materials with high dielectric, magnetic loss and optimized impedance matching.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Synthesis and Antibacterial Activities of Sulfur-Containing Bissalicylaldehyde Schiff Base and Binuclear Nickel(II) Nanorod Complex

Journal of Chemistry, 2013
Nickel(II) acetate tetrahydrate was treated with the ligand CH2(H2sal-sbdt)2 in methanol heated at reflux to yield a novel binuclear Ni(II) nanorod complex of the formula CH2{Ni(II)(sal-sbdt)(H2O)}2.

The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Effect of hydrostatic pressure on the anodic dissolution process of X80 steel

Journal of Materials Research and Technology
Based on the fact that hydrostatic pressure affects chemical potentials of reaction species and the structure evolution of electric double layer (EDL), the authors propose a generalized-BV equation to analyze the anodic dissolution process of X80 steel ...

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Atomic simulations on the deformation mechanisms in nano-crystalline Ni–Al series Ni-based superalloy based on grain size, strain rate and temperature

Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2023
Molecular Dynamic (MD) simulations were used to investigate the tensile properties of nanocrystalline Ni–Al series Ni-based superalloy at different grain sizes (6.54–20 nm), strain rates (1 × 107–5 × 108 s−1) and temperatures (300–1000 K).

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.
