Mechanical properties of thin sol-gel films [PDF]
, 1999 This thesis presents a study of the mechanical properties of thin films. The main aim was to determine the properties of sol-gel derived coatings. These films are used in a range of different applications and are known to be quite porous.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This study identifies somatostatin receptor 4 (Sstr4) as a critical tumor suppressor against skin and head/neck cancers (HNSCC, cSCC, and BCC). The loss of Sstr4 removes a check on cell growth, causing hyperactivation of the MAPK‐ERK signaling pathway (↑).

Tuning Gel State Properties of Supramolecular Gels by Functional Group Modification
Molecules, 2019 The factors affecting the self-assembly process in low molecular weight gelators (LMWGs) were investigated by tuning the gelation properties of a well-known gelator N-(4-pyridyl)isonicotinamide (4PINA). The N―H∙∙∙N interactions responsible for gel formation in 4PINA were disrupted by altering the functional groups of 4PINA, which was achieved by ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Partial inhibition of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) can paradoxically promote tumor growth, rather than simply producing a weaker antitumor effect than that observed with strong FAK suppression. In breast cancer and melanoma models, targeting p110δ PI3K, particularly in macrophages, counteracted these tumor‐promoting effects, highlighting the importance ...

Sol-gel derived hydroxyapatite, fluorhydroxyapatite and fluorapatite coatings for titanium implants [PDF]
, 2009 Currently, most titanium implant coatings are made using hydroxyapatite and a plasma-spraying technique. There are however limitations associated with the plasma-spraying process including; poor adherence, high porosity and cost.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Taxanes are widely used chemotherapeutics whose effects on cellular mechanics remain poorly understood. We show that paclitaxel induces rapid cellular contraction by promoting GEF‐H1 dissociation from microtubules and non‐muscle myosin II activation through RhoA/ROCK.

Gel Properties of Low-Methoxyl Pectin-Sodium Alginate Composite Gel Systems [PDF]
Shipin KexueComposite gel network systems were prepared by mixing sodium alginate (ALG) with low methoxyl pectin (LMP) with the addition of Ca2+. The effect of different LMP/ALG ratios and Ca2+ concentrations on gel properties including gel strength, moisture state ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This study identifies ARHGAP5, in addition to the frequently mutated ARHGAP35, as significantly mutated in endometrial cancer. Mutations in both genes co‐occur and are associated with their correlated downregulation. Functional CRISPR studies show that both paralogs regulate similar pathways, including actin cytoskeleton organization.
