Engineering students' perceptions of and attitudes towards cheating [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Academic dishonesty has become a serious problem at institutions of higher learning. This is particularly true in engineering where, according to previous research, engineering undergraduates are among the most likely to cheat in college.

Understanding how loneliness relates to user behavior in an interactive virtual reality cafe

open access: yesFrontiers in Virtual Reality
Loneliness is a growing concern among young adults. Though loneliness is distinct from social isolation, studies indicate that causes can stem from diminishment in the parameters of social contact that underlie isolation. In this work, we analyze how pre-

Accounting of infiltration waters and the level of recharge of the root layer by groundwater when calculating the irrigation regime on drained lands [PDF]

open access: yesBIO Web of Conferences
The paper provides a justification for the need to take into account the inflow of infiltration waters into the soil profile and groundwater recharge when calculating the irrigation regime of agricultural crops. The studies were performed on sod-podzolic

Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.

Nutrient/TOR signaling controls adipose mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) to regulate organismal growth in Drosophila

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Animals must match their growth rate to available nutrients. We show that in Drosophila larvae, the nutrient‐sensing TOR kinase controls growth by regulating levels of TFAM, a key regulator of mitochondrial function, in the adipose tissue. When nutrients are abundant, high TOR activity suppresses TFAM, lowering mitochondrial bioenergetic activity and ...

Peripheral lysosomes recruit PLEKHG3 to focal adhesions and restrain protrusion dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proximity‐dependent labeling at the LAMTOR complex revealed the Rho GEF PLEKHG3 as a lysosome‐proximal protein directing the study toward the influence of lysosome positioning on actin dynamics and cell motility. We show that PLEKHG3 colocalizes with lysosomes at focal adhesion sites and observe that forced peripheral dispersion of lysosomes hinders ...
