Study on Strength Attenuation Characteristics of Residual Expansive Soil under Wetting-Drying Cycles and Low Stress and Its Relationship with Shallow Landslide

open access: yesGeofluids, 2022
The rapid development of expansive soil fissures and the attenuation of strength under the action of repeated atmospheric wetting-drying cycles have a very adverse impact on the shallow stability of expansive soil slope.

Somatostatin receptor 4 (SSTR4) is a tumor suppressor in cutaneous and head & neck squamous cell carcinomas

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study identifies somatostatin receptor 4 (Sstr4) as a critical tumor suppressor against skin and head/neck cancers (HNSCC, cSCC, and BCC). The loss of Sstr4 removes a check on cell growth, causing hyperactivation of the MAPK‐ERK signaling pathway (↑).

TECHNIQUES TO MONITOR DRYING STRESSES AND DIMENSIONAL CHANGES IN TIMBER FROM PLANTATION-GROWN EUCALYPTS FOR KILN SCHEDULE DEVELOPMENT AND KILN CONTROL

open access: yesMaderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2002
Drying tests were conducted with timber from 13 year-old plantation-grown Eucalyptus nitens and E. globulus, to determine shrinkage and drying degrade of tangential- and radial-sawn boards.

Long‐term hippocampal alterations and cognitive impairment in a murine model of surgical sepsis

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Using a mouse model of surgical sepsis, we tested long‐term memory and analyzed the transcriptome of single cells isolated from the hippocampus. Survivor mice showed worse memory, loss of certain brain cell subpopulations, and abnormal immune cell activity—suggesting that post‐sepsis brain alterations may be linked to cognitive deficits.

Experimental investigation on the influence of drying on the seismic performance of three-story RC buildings

open access: yesDevelopments in the Built Environment
The drying of concrete has been recognized as a key phenomenon in the deterioration of concrete structures. Nevertheless, the complex conditions of real RC structures may lead to unforeseen responses observed from existing laboratory experiments on RC ...

Strain-Stress Formation and Deformation of Molded Materials by Drying-Induced Shrinkage

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
Drying-induced strain-stress and deformation was modeled for molded materials such as ceramics and foods. The transient three-dimensional problem of strain-stress and heat and moisture transfer was solved simultaneously by the finite element method.

Derivation and characterization of retinal pigment epithelium from urine‐derived iPSCs

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Age‐related macular degeneration causes vision loss via RPE dysfunction and loss. Traditional iPSC therapies rely on invasive biopsies, limiting scalability. Here, we utilize urine‐derived stem cells as an accessible source to generate u‐iPSCs, successfully differentiated into pigmented RPE. This “Urine‐to‐Retina” platform provides a promising path for

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

open access: yesFEBS 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 ...

Characteristics of Timbers Dried Using Kiln Drying and Radio Frequency-Vacuum Drying Systems

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2017
Heavy hardwoods are difficult-to-dry timbers as they are prone to checking and internal stresses when dried using a conventional kiln drying system. These timbers are usually dried naturally to reach 15% to 19% moisture content with an acceptable defects.

The tensile stress generated in clay through drying

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Engineering Research, 1987
A tensile stress is generated in a drying bar of clay that is prevented from shrinking in one direction. Theory predicts that after an initial period of drying the stress is equal to a constant fraction of the equivalent soil—water suction P (as inferred from the water content). The latter stage is independent of the initial water content of the bar.
