Enhanced cracking resistance and deposition of alloy 36 via accelerated cooling and TiC addition during wire arc additive manufacturing

Virtual and Physical Prototyping
The sensitivity of the single-phase, low thermal expansion (LTE) alloy 36 (Fe-36Ni) to intergranular cracking hinders its processability during additive manufacturing.

NKCC1: A key regulator of glioblastoma progression

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Glioblastoma (GBM) progression is driven by disrupted chloride cotransporter homeostasis. NKCC1 is highly expressed in stem‐like, astrocytic, and progenitor cells, correlating with earlier recurrence, while overall survival remains unaffected. NKCC1 serves as a prognostic marker and potential therapeutic target, linking chloride transporter imbalance ...

Foliar Mineral Treatments for The Reduction of Melon (Cucumis melo L.) Fruit Cracking

Agronomy, 2020
Fruit cracking affects many types of crops and is a major problem since the breakage of the surface of the fruit produces high economic losses. Numerous studies have looked at different ways to prevent this, mainly in melon, but with a low success rate ...

Unravelling the origin of multiple cracking in an additively manufactured Haynes 230

Materials Research Letters, 2023
In this work, by using multi-scale characterizations from electron channeling contrast imaging (ECCI) to atom probe tomography (APT), we directly evidenced that the massive cracking events in the selective-laser-melted (SLMed) Haynes 230 superalloy are ...

Characterization of in situ damage to tungsten PFCs induced by transient heat flux during plasma disruption in EAST

Nuclear Fusion
Transient heat flux of up to several thousand MW m ^−2 in a short pulse (∼ms) in tokamaks poses great risk to plasma-facing components (PFCs), making it a major concern for ITER.

Multi‐omics and low‐input proteomics profiling reveals dynamic regulation driving pluripotency initiation in early mouse embryos

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Mouse pre‐implantation development involves a transition from totipotency to pluripotency. Integrating transcriptomics, epigenetic profiling, low‐input proteomics and functional assays, we show that eight‐cell embryos retain residual totipotency features, whereas cytoskeletal remodeling regulated by the ubiquitin‐proteasome system drives progression ...

Dapagliflozin prevents methylglyoxal‐induced retinal cell death in ARPE‐19 cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Diabetic macular oedema is a diabetes complication of the eye, which may lead to permanent blindness. ARPE‐19 are human retinal cells used to study retinal diseases and potential therapeutics. Methylglyoxal is a compound increased in uncontrolled diabetes due to elevated blood glucose.
