Fragmentation pathways of nanofractal structures on surfaces [PDF]
We present a detailed systematical theoretical analysis of the post-growth processes occurring in nanofractals grown on surface. For this study we developed a method which accounts for the internal dynamics of particles in a fractal. We demonstrate that particle diffusion and detachment controls the shape of the emerging stable islands on surface.

Staurosporine induces necroptotic cell death under caspase-compromised conditions in U937 cells [PDF]
For a long time necrosis was thought to be an uncontrolled process but evidences recently have revealed that necrosis can also occur in a regulated manner.

Femtosecond real-time probing of reactions. XI. The elementary OClO fragmentation [PDF]
Femtosecond reaction dynamics of OClO in a supersonic molecular beam are reported. The system is excited to the A 2A2 state with a femtosecond pulse, covering a range of excitation in the symmetric stretch between v1=17 to v1=11 (308–352 nm).

Growth dynamics and the evolution of cooperation in microbial populations [PDF]
Microbes providing public goods are widespread in nature despite running the risk of being exploited by free-riders. However, the precise ecological factors supporting cooperation are still puzzling.

Minimal Folding Pathways for Coarse-Grained Biopolymer Fragments [PDF]
The minimal folding pathway or trajectory for a biopolymer can be defined as the transformation that minimizes the total distance traveled between a folded and an unfolded structure. This involves generalizing the usual Euclidean distance from points to one-dimensional objects such as a polymer.

Structure-based identification and pathway elucidation of flavonoids in Camptotheca acuminate
Flavonoid metabolism in Camptotheca acuminate remained an untapped area for years. A tandem MS approach was used and focused on the mining and characterizing of flavonoids in mature C. acuminate.

Saturated free fatty acids and apoptosis in microvascular mesangial cells: palmitate activates pro-apoptotic signaling involving caspase 9 and mitochondrial release of endonuclease G [PDF]
BACKGROUND: In type 2 diabetes, free fatty acids (FFA) accumulate in microvascular cells, but the phenotypic consequences of FFA accumulation in the microvasculature are incompletely understood. Here we investigated whether saturated FFA induce apoptosis
