Hematopoietic (stem) cells—The elixir of life?
FEBS 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.

2D materials and van der Waals heterostructures
, 2016 The physics of two-dimensional (2D) materials and heterostructures based on such crystals has been developing extremely fast. With new 2D materials, truly 2D physics has started to appear (e.g.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Bifidobacterium bifidum establishes symbiosis with infants by metabolizing lacto‐N‐biose I (LNB) from human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs). The extracellular multidomain enzyme LnbB drives this process, releasing LNB via its catalytic glycoside hydrolase family 20 (GH20) lacto‐N‐biosidase domain.

Advances in Single-Crystal Fibers and Thin Rods Grown by Laser Heated Pedestal Growth
Crystals, 2017 Single-crystal fibers are an intermediate between laser crystals and doped glass fibers. They have the advantages of both guiding laser light and matching the efficiencies found in bulk crystals, which is making them ideal candidates for high-power laser

The Caenorhabditis elegans DPF‐3 and human DPP4 have tripeptidyl peptidase activity
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV) family comprises serine proteases classically defined by their ability to remove dipeptides from the N‐termini of substrates, a feature that gave the family its name. Here, we report the discovery of a previously unrecognized tripeptidyl peptidase activity in DPPIV family members from two different species.

Large Angle Forward Diffraction by Chiral Liquid Crystal Gratings with Inclined Helical Axis
Crystals, 2020 A layer of chiral liquid crystal (CLC) with a photonic bandgap in the visible range has excellent reflective properties. Recently, two director configurations have been proposed in the literature for CLC between two substrates with periodic photo ...

Nematic liquid crystal devices with sub-millisecond response time [PDF]
, 2014 Conventional nematic liquid crystal devices exhibit switching times that are in the order of several milliseconds. In this work we focus on two types of nematic liquid crystals that can overcome the limitations of conventional nematic liquid crystals and

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Circadian rhythms in intracellular [Mg2+] exist across eukaryotic kingdoms. Central roles for Mg2+ in metabolism suggest that Mg2+ rhythms could regulate daily cellular energy and metabolism. In this Perspective paper, we propose that ancestral prokaryotic transport proteins could be responsible for mediating Mg2+ rhythms and posit a feedback model ...

Fabrication of Sio2-based microcantilevers by anisotropic chemical etching of (100) single crystal Si [PDF]
Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2007 The undercutting process of thermal SiO2 microcantilevers with different orientations on (100) Si wafer was studied. The silicon substrate was removed by anisotropic chemical etching with a 25 wt. % aqueous solution of TMAH or a 30 wt.

Simulation of non-Abelian braiding in Majorana time crystals
, 2018 Discrete time crystals have attracted considerable theoretical and experimental studies but their potential applications have remained unexplored. A particular type of discrete time crystals, termed "Majorana time crystals", is found to emerge in a ...
