Burst Dynamics, Upscaling and Dissipation of Slow Drainage in Porous Media

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2021
We present a theoretical and experimental investigation of drainage in porous media. The study is limited to stabilized fluid fronts at moderate injection rates, but it takes into account capillary, viscous, and gravitational forces.

Purification tags markedly affect self‐aggregation of CPEB3

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Although recombinant proteins are used to study protein aggregation in vitro, uncleaved tags can interfere with accurate interpretation. Our findings demonstrate that His₆‐GFP and His₁₂ tags significantly affect liquid droplet and amyloid fibril formation in the intrinsically disordered region (IDR) of mouse cytoplasmic polyadenylation element‐binding ...

Critical phenomena and critical relations

open access: yes, 2002
We consider systems which exhibit typical critical dependence of the specific heat: $ c\varpropto (T_C-T)^{- }$ ($TT_C$) where $ $,$ ^{\prime}$ are critical exponents ($ = $ for $ c= c_{p,N},$ $ =\bar $ for $ c= c_{V,N}$), as well as, the case when $ c\varpropto (\ln \mid T_C-T\mid)^a$ ($% a=\frac 13$, uniaxial ferroelectrics; $a=1 ...

Critical Dynamics Mediate Learning of New Distributed Memory Representations in Neuronal Networks

open access: yesEntropy, 2019
We explore the possible role of network dynamics near a critical point in the storage of new information in silico and in vivo, and show that learning and memory may rely on neuronal network features mediated by the vicinity of criticality.

Ricci flows, wormholes and critical phenomena

open access: yes, 2008
We study the evolution of wormhole geometries under Ricci flow using numerical methods. Depending on values of initial data parameters, wormhole throats either pinch off or evolve to a monotonically growing state.

Cyclic nucleotide signaling as a drug target in retinitis pigmentosa

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Disruptions in cGMP and cAMP signaling can contribute to retinal dysfunction and photoreceptor loss in retinitis pigmentosa. This perspective examines the mechanisms and evaluates emerging evidence on targeting these pathways as a potential therapeutic strategy to slow or prevent retinal degeneration.

Thermodynamic Black Holes

open access: yesEntropy, 2018
Black holes pose great difficulties for theory since gravity and quantum theory must be combined in some as yet unknown way. An additional difficulty is that detailed black hole observational data to guide theorists is lacking.

The Analysis of WJ Distribution as an Extended Gaussian Function: Case Study

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
The double exponential WJ distribution has been shown to competently describe extreme events and critical phenomena, while the Gaussian function has celebrated rich applications in many other fields.

Critical phenomena in globally coupled excitable elements

open access: yes, 2008
Critical phenomena in globally coupled excitable elements are studied by focusing on a saddle-node bifurcation at the collective level. Critical exponents that characterize divergent fluctuations of interspike intervals near the bifurcation are ...

The epithelial barrier theory proposes a comprehensive explanation for the origins of allergic and other chronic noncommunicable diseases

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Exposure to common noxious agents (1), including allergens, pollutants, and micro‐nanoplastics, can cause epithelial barrier damage (2) in our body's protective linings. This may trigger an immune response to our microbiome (3). The epithelial barrier theory explains how this process can lead to chronic noncommunicable diseases (4) affecting organs ...
