Hypoxia promotes the epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) of renal tubular epithelial cells via the SIRT1‐FoxO1‐FoxO3‐autophagy pathway, thereby resulting in the fibrosis of renal tubular epithelial cells. Activation of SIRT1 or induction of autophagy inhibits this process, alleviating hypoxia‐induced fibrosis.

A Transport and Microwave Study of Superconducting and Magnetic RuSr2EuCu2O8 [PDF]
We have performed susceptibility, thermopower, dc resistance and microwave measurements on RuSr2EuCu2O8. This compound has recently been shown to display the coexistence of both superconducting and magnetic order. We find clear evidence of changes in the dc and microwave resistance near the magnetic ordering temperature (132 K).

A study of radiation tolerance in optical cements [PDF]
We study the effect ionizing radiation has on light transmission in the wavelength range 190--1100~nm for a number of optically clear epoxies. We find that the transmittance of traditional, commercially available, optical epoxies show significant degradation for exposures of $1\times10^{12}$~MIPs/cm$^2$.

Two New Oxodolastane Diterpenes from the Jamaican Macroalga Canistrocarpus cervicornis
The chemical investigation of the organic extract of Canistrocarpus cervicornis, collected at Drunken Man’s Cay at Port Royal, Jamaica, has led to the isolation of two new dolastane diterpenes 4R-acetoxy-8S,9S-epoxy-14S-hydroxy-7-oxodolastane (1) and 4R ...

Thermal Conductivities and Mechanical Properties of Epoxy Resin as a Function of the Degree of Cross-linking [PDF]
Epoxy resins are widely used polymer matrices for numerous applications. Despite substantial advances, the molecular-level knowledge-base required to exploit these materials to their full potential remains limited. A deeper comprehension of structure/property relationships in epoxy resins at the molecular level is critical to progressing these efforts.
