ATF4‐mediated stress response as a therapeutic vulnerability in chordoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We screened 5 chordoma cell lines against 100+ inhibitors of epigenetic and metabolic pathways and kinases and identified halofuginone, a tRNA synthetase inhibitor. Mechanistically halofuginone induces an integrated stress response, with eIF2alpha phosphorylation, activation of ATF4 and its target genes CHOP, ASNS, INHBE leading to cell death ...

Capacity and Distribution of Water Stored in the Vadose Zone of the Chinese Loess Plateau

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal, 2019
Water stored in the vadose (unsaturated) zone provides the majority of water required by plants and buffers water resources; thus, it is central to understanding ecological and hydrological processes in the Chinese Loess Plateau (CLP) with its thick ...

Anisotropy characterization of the elasticity and energy flow of Longmaxi shale under uniaxial compression

open access: yesEnergy Reports, 2022
The inherent anisotropy of shale makes it exhibit different mechanical properties when measured in different directions. Generally, the measurements of the anisotropic mechanical properties of shale are generally conducted on cylindrical samples, and the

Infrared laser sampling of low volumes combined with shotgun lipidomics reveals lipid markers in palatine tonsil carcinoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Nanosecond infrared laser (NIRL) low‐volume sampling combined with shotgun lipidomics uncovers distinct lipidome alterations in oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) of the palatine tonsil. Several lipid species consistently differentiate tumor from healthy tissue, highlighting their potential as diagnostic markers.

Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve

Mechanical behaviors and rupture processes of a typical granitic stratum

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering
Granitic veins (GVs) have a significant influence on the mechanical responses of tunnels excavated in granitic strata. Distinguishing the mechanical properties of host granites (HGs), GVs and vein-granite interfaces (VGIs) is critical.

Rethinking plastic waste: innovations in enzymatic breakdown of oil‐based polyesters and bioplastics

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Plastic pollution remains a critical environmental challenge, and current mechanical and chemical recycling methods are insufficient to achieve a fully circular economy. This review highlights recent breakthroughs in the enzymatic depolymerization of both oil‐derived polyesters and bioplastics, including high‐throughput protein engineering, de novo ...

Mechanical characteristics of a tunnel boring machine cutterhead during rock breaking: Physical model tests and transient dynamic analysis

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2023
During tunnel excavation using a tunnel boring machine (TBM), the interaction between the cutter and the rock causes the cutterhead to generate abrupt vibrations, which could lead to engineering problems, such as bearing seal failure and even cutterhead ...
