High-Transmission-Efficiency 120 $^{\circ}$ Photonic Crystal Waveguide Bend by Using Flexible Structural Defects

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2014
We numerically studied a high-output-transmission-efficiency low-reflection-loss 120° photonic crystal (PhC) waveguide bend based on a PhC slab with triangular-lattice air holes.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Survival of highly related ESBL- and pAmpC- producing Escherichia coli in broiler farms identified before and after cleaning and disinfection using cgMLST

open access: yesBMC Microbiology
Background Broiler chickens are frequently colonized with Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase- (ESBL-) and plasmid mediated AmpC Beta-Lactamase- (pAmpC-) producing Enterobacterales, and we are confronted with the potential spread of these resistant bacteria

The opossum Didelphis virginiana as a synanthropic reservoir of Trypanosoma cruzi in Dzidzilché, Yucatán, México

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2002
In México, the role of mammals in the transmission cycle of Trypanosoma cruzi is poorly known. In the State of Yucatán, an endemic area of Chagas disease, both Didelphis virginiana and D. marsupialis occur sympatrically.

Satellite Network Transmission of Cooperative Relay Superimposed Signal Reconstructed in Spatial Dimension

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
In order to save frequency resources, a new remote sensing satellite service can gradually adopt relay cooperation transmission to realize the same frequency and common channel transmission of multiple data.

Cavity method for force transmission in jammed disordered packings of hard particles

open access: yes, 2014
The force distribution of jammed disordered packings has always been considered a central object in the physics of granular materials. However, many of its features are poorly understood.

Epidemiological model for Clostridium difficile transmission in healthcare settings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
OBJECTIVE: Recent outbreaks of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) have been difficult to control, and data indicate the importance of different sources of transmission may have changed. Our objectives were to evaluate the contributions of asymptomatic

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Mechanisms of parasite‐mediated disruption of brain vessels

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Parasites can affect the blood vessels of the brain, often causing serious neurological problems. This review explains how different parasites interact with and disrupt these vessels, what this means for brain health, and why these processes matter. Understanding these mechanisms may help us develop better ways to prevent or treat brain infections in ...
