Delocalized states in damaged DNA [PDF]
Recent studies suggest that base pairing is an efficient electronic delocalization mechanism. However, defects may break down such effect. In the present work we show how a simple model of defects suppresses the delocalization, which survives only for low defect concentrations.

Macrophage inflammatory state influences susceptibility to lysosomal damage [PDF]
Abstract Macrophages possess mechanisms for reinforcing the integrity of their endolysosomes against damage. This property, termed inducible renitence, was previously observed in murine macrophages stimulated with LPS, peptidoglycan, IFNγ, or TNFα, which suggested roles for renitence in macrophage resistance to infection by membrane ...
