Discrete gauging in six dimensions

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018
When n M5 branes coincide on an A type singularity, ℂ2 /ℤ k , there is a multitude of tensionless strings which arise in the spectrum. The low energy theory when all M5 branes are separated at the singularity is given by a linear quiver with parameters n

Partial depletion of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 decreases subcutaneous fat cell hypertrophy and liver cholesterol in high‐fat‐fed female mice

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

Field redefinitions can be nonlocal

Journal of High Energy Physics
We revisit the lore establishing the allowed space of field redefinitions and show that there are essentially no restrictions. Our conclusions hold to all orders in perturbation theory and for any dispersion relation. Field redefinitions can be nonlocal,

E 8 instantons on type-A ALE spaces and supersymmetric field theories

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017
We consider the 6d superconformal field theory realized on M5-branes probing the E 8 end-of-the-world brane on the deformed and resolved ℂ 2/ℤ k singularity.

Functional comparison of EncB and EncC cargo proteins in iron storage within the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Encapsulins are protein nanocompartments that play an important role in iron storage. In the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin system, two cargo proteins called EncB and EncC contribute to iron mineralization. Here, we show that EncB and EncC generate iron‐containing minerals with distinct chemical compositions, suggesting that the composition of stored ...

Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...

Spinors fields in co-dimension one braneworlds

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018
In this work we analyze the zero mode localization and resonances of 1/2−spin fermions in co-dimension one Randall-Sundrum braneworld scenarios. We consider delta-like, domain walls and deformed domain walls membranes.

Nonperturbative bounds on scattering of massive scalar particles in d ≥ 2

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022
We study two-to-two scattering amplitudes of a scalar particle of mass m. For simplicity, we assume the presence of ℤ2 symmetry and that the particle is ℤ2 odd.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Localization of U(1) gauge vector field on flat branes with five-dimension (asymptotic) AdS5 spacetime

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018
In order to localize U(1) gauge vector field on Randall-Sundrum-like braneworld model with infinite extra dimension, we propose a new kind of non-minimal coupling between the U(1) gauge field and the gravity.
