Dyon Death Eaters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We study general two-body decays of primitive and non-primitive 1/4-BPS dyons in four-dimensional type IIB string compactifications. We find a ``master equation'' for marginal stability that generalises the curve found by Sen for half-BPS decay, and ...

Adverse effects of prenatal tobacco smoke exposure on biological parameters of the developing brainstem

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2005
We aimed to study the consequences of chronic exposure to tobacco smoke in utero on the morphological and functional maturation of the brainstem by comparing stillbirths of smoker mothers versus nonsmoker mothers.

Acid sphingomyelinase-dependent autophagic degradation of GPX4 is critical for the execution of ferroptosis

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2021
Ferroptosis is a type of regulated cell death characterized by ROS accumulation and devastating lipid peroxidation (LPO). The role of acid sphingomyelinase (ASM), a key enzyme in sphingolipid metabolism, in the induction of apoptosis has been studied ...

Ferroptosis: friend or foe in cancer immunotherapy?

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2023
Ferroptosis has gained interest due to it immunogenicity and the higher sensitivity of cancer cells to it. However, it was recently shown that ferroptosis in tumor-associated neutrophils leads to immunosuppression and negatively impacts therapy. Here, we

Sorafenib fails to trigger ferroptosis across a wide range of cancer cell lines

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2021
Sorafenib, a protein kinase inhibitor approved for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma and advanced renal cell carcinoma, has been repeatedly reported to induce ferroptosis by possibly involving inhibition of the cystine/glutamate antiporter, known

BRAIN DEATH

open access: yesBritish Journal of Anaesthesia, 1981
Mechanical ventilation frequently saves lives that are threatened by temporary respiratory failure; but when breathing stops due to irreversible brain damage ventilation only prolongs the process of dying, as organs serially cease to function. The possibility of extending from a few minutes to many days the interval between final failure of the brain ...
