Control of Internal Moisture Transfer Direction and Lateral Moisturization to Mitigate Drying Defects in Large-Cross Section Timber

BioResources
Methods for surface moisturization and control of internal moisture movement have been developed to minimize moisture gradients and reduce drying defects, such as cracks, in large cross-sectional timbers used for restoring palaces, temples, and cultural ...

The Effect of Fatigue and Stress on Dry eye

The Korean Journal of Vision Science, 2017
Purpose: This study was performed to investigate the relationship between dry eye by fatigue and stress. Methods: Using the survey data aimed at a total of 365 adults aged 19 and over, the subjects’ sociodemographic variables, Fatigue Severity Scale, Stress Scale, and Ocular Surface Disease Index were applied in a self-administering way, and the cross ...

Pharmacological inhibition of the PERK pathway modulates hepatocellular carcinoma growth and immune signaling

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Pharmacological inhibition of PERK in a DEN‐induced mouse model of liver cancer does not reduce tumor burden but alters cellular stress signaling. Despite blocking PERK activity, downstream stress responses, including CHOP expression, remain active, suggesting compensatory mechanisms within the unfolded protein response that may influence tumor ...

Physiological manipulation and formulation of the biocontrol yeast Pichia anomala for control of Penicillium verrucosum and ochratoxin A contamination of moist grain. [PDF]

, 2008
The major hurdle in the production of commercial biocontrol agents (BCAs) has been the lack of production of appropriate formulations. Of particular importance is the conservation of viability and ecological competence after application.

Sudden anaerobization in Amphibacillus xylanus increases intracellular labile ferrous iron and inhibits cell growth

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Abruptly changing from aerobic to anaerobic conditions (sudden anaerobization) induced growth inhibition and a significant increase in intracellular labile ferrous iron in the aerotolerant anaerobe Amphibacillus xylanus. We found that free flavins mediate efficient electron transfer from NADH to ferric iron under anaerobic conditions, suggesting that ...

Computer Simulation of Drying Stresses in Wood

Journal of the Society of Materials Science, Japan, 1973
Computer simulation was conducted to assess the effect of the rate of drying on stress in wood during drying. Numerical calculations for the simulation were carried out with an electronic computer FACOM 270-20/30. Examples of the flow chart and FORTRAN programs used are shown in the text where we assumed that the stress follows the integro-differential

RoundMi: A quantitative method to analyze mitochondrial morphology in mitotic cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
RoundMi is a workflow for rapid analysis of mitochondrial morphology in mitotic cells. By combining adaptive preprocessing with automated segmentation and quantification, it enables accurate measurements from single focal plane images, reducing acquisition time and computational demands while remaining compatible with high‐throughput fixed and live ...

Cyclic azapeptide CD36 ligand attenuates cardiac injury and reduces long‐chain fatty acid accumulation after myocardial ischemia–reperfusion in mice

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In a murine model of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion (MI/R), the CD36 azapeptide ligand MPE‐298 reduces cardiac injury and transiently lowers left ventricular long‐chain fatty acids (LCFAs) accumulation 3 h after reperfusion, accompanied by a decrease of oxidative stress and inflammation‐associated genes' expression in the heart and adipose tissue.
