The contrasting roles of water and dust in controlling daily variations in radiative heating of the summertime Saharan heat low [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The summertime Sahara heat low (SHL) is a key component of the West African monsoon (WAM) system. Considerable uncertainty remains over the relative roles of water vapour and dust aerosols in controlling the radiation budget over the Sahara and therefore

A methionine‐lined active site governs carbocation stabilization and product specificity in a bacterial terpene synthase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals a unique active site enriched in methionine residues and demonstrates that these residues play a critical role by stabilizing carbocation intermediates through novel sulfur–cation interactions. Structure‐guided mutagenesis further revealed variants with significantly altered product profiles, enhancing pseudopterosin formation. These

Multistage cooling system for temperature reduction of the working face in deep coal mines: A technical-economic evaluation

open access: yesCase Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2023
Workers in deep coal mines are often exposed to hyperthermal conditions, which is a health and safety hazard. Although many novel approaches have been proposed in recent years, air distribution optimization combined with thermal analysis based on ...

In vitro models of cancer‐associated fibroblast heterogeneity uncover subtype‐specific effects of CRISPR perturbations

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Development of therapies targeting cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) necessitates preclinical model systems that faithfully represent CAF–tumor biology. We established an in vitro coculture system of patient‐derived pancreatic CAFs and tumor cell lines and demonstrated its recapitulation of primary CAF–tumor biology with single‐cell transcriptomics ...

Integrated ceRNA Network Analysis in Silica-Induced Pulmonary Fibrosis and Discovery of miRNA Biomarkers

open access: yesToxics
Silicosis is an irreversible and progressive pulmonary fibrotic disease caused by the long-term inhalation of silica dust. The precise molecular mechanisms underlying the disease remain incompletely understood, and effective early diagnostic biomarkers ...

Use of Extreme Vertices Method for Analysis of How Proportional Composition Affects Component Interactions and Product Distribution during Hydrothermal Treatment

open access: yesBioResources, 2016
The interaction among three biomass components (hemicellulose, cellulose, and lignin) in an autoclave was studied based on the extreme vertices of a constrained region that had a significant effect on the distribution and characteristics of the products.

Study of the convection heat transfer law and temperature prediction of the duct in high-temperature tunnels

open access: yesCase Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2022
During the construction of tunnels subjected to high temperatures (here called high-temperature tunnels), ventilation cooling is an essential requirement. A high-temperature section of a construction tunnel on the Sichuan-Tibet Railway was used as a test

An investigation of star formation and dust attenuation in major mergers using ultraviolet and infrared data

open access: yes, 2012
Merger processes play an important role in galaxy formation and evolution. To study the influence of merger processes on the evolution of dust properties and cosmic star formation rate, we investigate a local sample of major merger galaxies and a control

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 ...

The color excess of quasars with intervening DLA systems- Analysis of the SDSS data release five

open access: yes, 2007
We analyzed the spectroscopic and photometric database of the 5th data release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) to search for evidence of the quasar reddening produced by dust embedded in intervening damped Ly alpha (DLA) systems.
