The Curvature Effect

open access: yes, 2020
Preference for curved over sharp-angled contours is a well-known effect. However, it was quite unexplored during the 20th century and only a few sporadic studies dealt with it. Nevertheless, there has been renewed interest in this topic over the past two decades.

Membrane curvature in cell biology: An integration of molecular mechanisms

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 2016
Curving biological membranes establishes the complex architecture of the cell and mediates membrane traffic to control flux through subcellular compartments.

Integrative systems‐level analysis reveals a contextual crosstalk between hypoxia and global metabolism in human breast tumors

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Breast tumor samples scored for metabolic deregulation (M1 to M3) were given a hypoxia score (HS). The highest HS occurred in patients with strongest metabolic deregulation (M3), supporting tumor aggressiveness. HS correlated with the highest number of metabolic pathways in M1. This suggests hypoxia to be an early event in metabolic deregulation.

Coordinate-free study of Finsler spaces of $H_{p}$-scalar curvature [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
The aim of the present paper is to provide an \emph{intrinsic} investigation of special Finsler spaces of $H_{p}$-scalar curvature and of $H_{p}\,$-constant curvature. Characterizations of such spaces are shown. Sufficient condition for Finsler space of $H_{p}$-scalar curvature to be of perpendicular scalar curvature is investigated.

Integrative analysis of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and exosomes from small‐cell lung cancer (SCLC) patients: a comprehensive approach

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study simultaneously investigated circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and exosomes from small‐cell lung cancer (SCLC) patients. The elevated expression of JUNB and CXCR4 in CTCs was a poor prognostic factor for SCLC patients, whereas exosomal overexpression of these biomarkers revealed a high discrimination ability of patients from healthy individuals,

The method of analysis of a reinforced concrete section under bending in the post-yield range

open access: yesBudownictwo i Architektura, 2013
Predicting the behavior of plastic hinges subjected to large inelastic deformations caused by extreme loads such as earthquakes plays an important role in assessing maximum stable deformation capacities of framed concrete structures.

Mean Curvature Driven Ricci Flow [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2009
We obtain the evolution equations for the Riemann tensor, the Ricci tensor and the scalar curvature induced by the mean curvature flow. The evolution for the scalar curvature is similar to the Ricci flow, however, negative, rather than positive, curvature is preserved. Our results are valid in any dimension.

The accumulation of myeloid‐derived suppressor cells participates in abdominal infection‐induced tumor progression through the PD‐L1/PD‐1 axis

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study explores how sepsis affects GC progression by creating an immunosuppressive environment. Our findings reveal that sepsis promotes immune dysregulation, enhancing tumor growth and metastasis. Targeting the PD‐1/PD‐L1 pathway with monoclonal antibodies shows potential for restoring immune function and improving outcomes in cancer patients ...

Endstopping and curvature

open access: yesVision Research, 1989
Hypercomplex or endstopped visual cortical neurons are usually supposed to be concerned with length or end point analysis. However, recent evidence demonstrates that endstopped neurons are curvature-selective, a connection that we explore here in some detail.
