Partial depletion of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 decreases subcutaneous fat cell hypertrophy and liver cholesterol in high‐fat‐fed female mice

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

Left dislocation in Zulu [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This paper examines left dislocation constructions in Zulu, a Southern Bantu language belonging to the Nguni group (Zone S 40). In Zulu left dislocation configurations, a topic phrase in the beginning of the sentence is linked to a resumptive element ...

Multiscale Modeling of Microcrystalline Materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Materials with micrometer dimensions and their distinct mechanical properties have generated a great interest in the material science community over the last couple of decades. There is strong experimental evidence showing that microcrystalline materials

L‐aspartate oxidase provides new insights into fumarate reduction in anaerobic darkness in Synechocystis sp. PCC6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Synechocystis strains deficient in succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) secrete more succinate than the WT under dark anaerobic conditions, supporting that SDH then primarily acts as SDH, not as a fumarate reductase. L‐aspartate oxidase (Laspo) from Synechocystis is functional under anaerobic conditions, reducing fumarate to succinate.

A unified model for dislocation nucleation, dislocation emission and dislocation free zone

open access: yes, 1996
In this paper, a unified model for dislocation nucleation, emission and dislocation free zone is proposed based on the Peierls framework. Three regions are identified ahead of the crack tip.

Lowering the density of dislocations in heteroepitaxial III-nitride layers: Effect of sapphire substrate treatment (review)

open access: yesSemiconductor Physics, Quantum Electronics & Optoelectronics, 2016
In this paper, different methods for lowering the dislocation density such as incorporation of the buffer layers, substrate patterning and nitridation, silan-ammonia treatment are reviewed and compared. Advantages and limitations of these methods as well

Membrane composition and thermodynamic identity as boundaries of life for synthetic cell research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
What makes a cell a cell? The boundary of a living cell is not just a wall. Read as a Markov blanket, the membrane separates internal from external states, generating identity and non‐equilibrium order. Can this identity be rebuilt from scratch in a synthetic cell?

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Ductile deformation in alumina ceramics under quasi-static to dynamic contact impact

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2020
Cr3+ Fluorescence spectroscopy and TEM have been used to study the ductile deformation of alumina ceramics underneath an impact contact. The contact was generated by a spherical tungsten carbide indenter under quasi-static, drop weight and ballistic ...
