Surface modification of polyester using chicken feather keratin hydrolysate to improve water absorbency and dye uptake [PDF]
PET fiber has an intrinsic low hydrophilic character and an inactive surface which make it uncomfortable for wearing purpose. Moreover, it is difficult to colour polyester fabric other than disperse dyes.

Modeling the Mechanisms of the Photomechanical Response of a Nematic Liquid Crystal Elastomer
Recent studies of azo-dye doped liquid crystal elastomers show a strong photomechanical response. We report on models that predict experimental results that suggest photothermal heating is the dominant mechanism in a planar constrained geometry.

Tailoring pH-responsive acrylic acid microgels with hydrophobic crosslinks for drug release [PDF]
Amphiphilic microgels based on the hydrophilic acrylic acid (AA) and hydrophobic crosslinks of different compositions were synthesised using a lab-on-a-chip device. The microgels were formed by polymerising hydrophobic droplets.

Basroparib inhibits YAP‐driven cancers by stabilizing angiomotin
Basroparib, a selective tankyrase inhibitor, suppresses Wnt signaling and attenuates YAP‐driven oncogenic programs by stabilizing angiomotin. It promotes AMOT–YAP complex formation, enforces cytoplasmic YAP sequestration, inhibits YAP/TEAD transcription, and sensitizes YAP‐active cancers, including KRAS‐mutant colorectal cancer, to MEK inhibition.

Blends of Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) and Nanostructured Hyperbranched Polyesteramide for Improvement the Dyeability of PET: Thermodynamics [PDF]
Incorporating Hybrane H1500 as a nanostructured hyperbranched polyesteramide into polyethylene terephthalate (PET) enhances the dyeability of PET with C.I. Disperse Blue 56. The results show that the disperse dye display much greater substantivity toward

Self-diffusion of rod-like viruses in the nematic phase [PDF]
We measure the self-diffusion of colloidal rod-like virus {\it fd} in an isotropic and nematic phase. A low volume fraction of viruses are labelled with a fluorescent dye and dissolved in a background of unlabelled rods.

Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) reduces growth of HPV‐positive cervical cancer spheroids and induces ferroptosis in cervical cancer cells via blocking SLC7A11/Glutathione (GSH) axis. Combination of subcytotoxic doses of DMF and cisplatin (CDDP) further suppresses spheroid growth and drives cell death in 2D culture models.

Cascading of Liquid Crystal Elastomer Photomechanical Optical Devices
Photomechanical actuation is demonstrated in two coupled liquid crystal elastomer photomechanical optical devices (PODs) acting in series. The response function of an individual POD is characterized and used to predict the temporal response of the ...

Mechanism of cellular uptake of genotoxic silica nanoparticles. [PDF]
Mechanisms for cellular uptake of nanoparticles have important implications for nanoparticulate drug delivery and toxicity. We have explored the mechanism of uptake of amorphous silica nanoparticles of 14 nm diameter, which agglomerate in culture medium ...
