Ac‐SDKP modulates apoptosis via HSP27 and the FAS/FASL and mitochondrial axes
Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.Schematic diagram of Ac‐SDKP regulating the FAS/FASL and mitochondrial apoptosis pathways via HSP27. Ac‐SDKP inhibits HSP27 expression, activates the FAS/FASL pathway and Caspase‐3 signaling, increases Caspase‐8 and Caspase‐3 expression, and induces cell apoptosis.

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In this study, saponification variables were optimized using a face‐centred central composite design‐response surface methodology. The variables included reaction temperature (50°C–120°C), reaction time (30–180 min), KOH concentration (0.5–3 M) and pyrogallol concentration (0–1% w/v).

Synthesis of a Novel Amine‐Based Curing Agent for Epoxy Resins Derived From Vanillin
Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.The four‐step synthesis of a new bio‐based amine hardener is described starting from vanillin as a bio‐based compound. The hardener ADBA was utilized to cure DGEBA and the resulting Tg,tanδmax was determined via DMA. Compared to other bio‐based curing agents, our curing agent is obtainable in a high yield and leads to a superior Tg of 135°C.

Glacier volume response time and its links to climate and topography based on a conceptual model of glacier hypsometry [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2009 Glacier volume response time is a measure of the time taken for a glacier to adjust its geometry to a climate change. It has been previously proposed that the volume response time is given approximately by the ratio of glacier thickness to ablation at ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The Pleistocene is a key period for understanding the evolutionary history and palaeobiogeography of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). The species was first documented in southeastern Iberia at the beginning of the Middle Pleistocene and appears to have rapidly spread throughout Southwestern Europe, where it was found in numerous ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Neandertals are known to possess very distinctive traits in their bony labyrinth morphology, such as an inferiorly positioned posterior canal and a very low number of turns in the cochlea. Hence, the inner ear has been often used to assess the Neandertal status of fragmentary fossils.

First Alps-wide reconstruction of LGM glacial sediment transport enabled by GPU-accelerated particle tracking [PDF]
Earth Surface DynamicsReconstructing the transport histories and provenances of glacial sediments and ice-contact deposits (e.g. tills, moraines) in formerly glaciated regions remains a major challenge, particularly at icefield- to ice-sheet scales and over multi-millennial ...
